Correction to: Towards the conservation of the Mesozoic relict fern Christensenia: a fern species with extremely small populations in China.

abstract：:Drought is believed to cause many metabolic changes which affect plant growth and development. However, it might be mitigated by various inorganic substances, such as nitrogen. Thus, the study was carried out to investigate the effect of foliar-applied urea with or without urease inhibitor N-(n-butyl) thiophosphoric t...
