Book Genetics of Slash Pine  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Genetics of Slash Pine Classic Reprint written by Keith W. Dorman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Genetics of Slash Pine Slash pine is used for pulp, lumber, poles, and Oleoresin (gum naval stores) production. It is a favorite of forest managers because it is easy to plant and can be handled in pure, even-aged stands with rotation ages as low as 20 to 25 years, in addition to having high wood utility. Slash pine is widely planted within its range and in adjoining areas. It has also been planted successfully in southern Africa, South America, and Australia. Slash pine is strongly multi-nodal in growth habit and begins rapid height growth soon after planting. Crown closure occurs at an early age, and natural pruning takes place even at wide spacing; consequently, trees reach commercial size and quality in a few years. Seed production is high and consistent at ages 10 to 15 years if crowns are large. Volume growth is strongly influenced by site conditions, but the species grows well near sea level on soils which are seasonally water saturated and on drier soils at higher eleva tions in the Coastal Plain. In volume growth, it ranks among the highest of all southern pines. In the southern part of the slash pine range, summer rainfall is very high and the winter rainfall is very low, but in the northern and western parts the seasonal distribution of rainfall is much more equally divided.

This book was released on 2018-03-27 with total page 726 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Growth and Flowering of Clones of Slash Pine Under Intensive Culture: Early Results Wide differences in growth rate and other characteristics are common among individual southern pine trees and stands. In seeking causes of this variability, it is often difficult to distinguish between inherent and environmental influences. This is partly because the southern pine species, unlike horticultural varieties, are of considerable genetic diversity (squillace Consequently, two neighboring trees of the same species probably do not have the same genetic potential and thus may not respond in the same way to a particular set of environmental conditions (pritchett and Goddard Similarly, groups of trees of different geographic origin may show significant variation in performance when planted over a series of different habitats.

Book Genetics of Virginia Pine  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Genetics of Virginia Pine Classic Reprint written by Robert Clay Kellison and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-12-21 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Genetics of Virginia Pine Pinus virginiana (mill), variously known as Virginia, Jersey, possum, spruce, short straw, scrub, poverty, and old field pine, is a species of contrasts. It is despised by the logger but liked by the forester and the pulp mill manager in most areas of its range. The logger's negative reaction to Virginia pine results from the tree's small size and to its persistent branching habit, factors which adversely affect harvesting production. Dominant and codominant trees average only 23 to 25 meters tall and 28 to 30 centi meters at 50 years.2 Older trees may attain heights to 35 meters and diameters to 90 centimeters (harlow and Harrar but even they often retain branches and branch stubs the length of the bole below the live crown. Despite these deterrents, the species has gained the respect of foresters because of good volume and dry-weight yields at rota tion ages of 25 to 30 years (newland 1968, nc. State Univ. And of pulp mill managers because of suitability of the fiber for fine paper and groundwood products. These attributes are responsible for a recent planting program of several thousand acres annually. Secondary uses of Virginia pine include lumber and structural timber from sawlog-sized trees, and Christmas trees which are harvested at rotation ages of 6 to 10 years. This paper reviews the current status of research on the genetics of, Virginia pine. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Genetics of Jack Pine Jack pine is an important species for planting and direct seeding in the Lake States and throughout much of the boreal forest of Canada, where it is a major source of pulpwood, lumber, and round tim ber. It is highly variable in climatic adaptation, growth, and form and exhibits great genetic diversi ty of silvicultural significance. Although referred to early in the 2oth century as a frugal scrub, its cur rent high economic value, genetic variability, silvi cultural simplicity, and ability to grow on less fer tile and drier soils than are required by other sym patric species make jack pine a prime candidate for genetic improvement by selection, breeding, and controlled seed production. Jack pine is in the Subgenus Pinus, Section Pinus, and Subsection Contortae along with lodgepole pine, Virginia pine, and sand pine.

This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genetic and environmental correlations of stem growth with [Delta]13C or with crown conductance were low. There was no evidence of clone-by-year interaction in stem growth, basal-area growth phenology, and [Delta]13C for any family. Understanding the biology of physiological processes and their genetic parameters gives us insight into the key functional and structural traits that determine genotype performance differences in southern pines.

Book The Effect of Hydrogen Peroxide on the Germination of Loblolly and Slash Pine Seed  Classic Reprint

This book was released on 2017-11-19 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Effect of Hydrogen Peroxide on the Germination of Loblolly and Slash Pine Seed Franco) was particularly responsive. Seed soaked in 1 percent hydrogen per oxide for 48 hours reached 50 percent germination in 1% days, whereas seed stratified at 3° C. For 10 days required 8% days to reach 50 percent germina tion Stimulations of this magnitude would be quite important in forest nursery and direct seeding operations because a large part of mortality occurs during the germination period(4). Increasing the speed of germination would shorten the time of vulnerability and should reduce mortality. The current study was carried out to determine the effect of hydrogen peroxide upon the germination of loblolly (pinus taeda L.) and slash (pinus elliottii Engelm.) pine seed. All studies were carried out at. The Eastern Tree Seed Laboratory located at the Georgia Forestry Center.
