Loblolly Pine Ssr Markers for Shortleaf Pine Genetics
—Simple sequence repeats (SSR) are highly informative DNA-based markers widely used in population genetic and linkage mapping studies. We have been developing PCR primer pairs for amplifying SSR markers for loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) using loblolly pine DNA and EST sequence data as starting materials. Fifty primer pairs known to reliably amplify polymorphic markers in loblolly pine were scr...
متن کاملOccurrence of Shortleaf Loblolly Pine Hybrids in Shortleaf Pine Orchards: Implications for Ecosystem Restoration
Shortleaf pine (Pinus echinata Mill.) is an important conifer in much of the southeastern United States. However, the species and its associated ecosystems are in decline, and recent evidence about hybridization with loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) raises concerns that the species may be at risk of further losses due to introgression. Although shortleaf pine is not widely planted for timber prod...
متن کاملUnderstory plant response to site preparation and fertiliza- tion of loblolly and shortleaf pine forests
In developing an improved understanding of the dynamics of understory plant composition and productivity in Coastal Plaii forest ecosystems, we examined the iniluence of s i te preparat ion and phosphorus fer t i l izat ion on the success ional t rends of shrubs and herbaceous p lants growing on lands of wide ly ranging subsoil texture in Arkansas, Louisiana, and Texas which are managed for sou...
متن کاملRed-cockaded Woodpecker Picoides Borealis Microhabitat Characteristics and Reproductive Success in a Loblolly-Shortleaf Pine Forest
We investigated the relationship between red-cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borealis) reproductive success and microhabitat characteristics in a southeastern loblolly (Pinus taeda) and shortleaf (P. echinata) pine forest. From 1997 to 1999, we recorded reproductive success parameters of 41 red-cockaded woodpecker groups at the Bienville National Forest, Mississippi. Microhabitat characteristics ...
متن کاملRed-cockaded Woodpecker (Picoides borealis) Behavior in a Mississippi Loblolly-Shortleaf Pine Forest
From 1997 to 1999, we characterized red-cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borealis) behavior in a loblolly (Pinus taeda) and shortleaf (P. echinata) pine forest in Mississippi. We recorded stem type and size class used, foraging location, height, first behavior type observed and cumulative behaviors during 5-hour visual observation periods of 41 red-cockaded woodpecker groups. Overall, 94% of all s...
