Effects of reproduction methods and overstory species composition on understory light availability in longleaf pine–slash pine ecosystems
The restoration of longleaf pine (Pinus palustris Mill.) ecosystem types ranging from xeric uplands to hydric flatwoods is the goal of significant management efforts in the southeastern United States. Overstory species composition across ecosystem types varies from pure longleaf to mixed species stands, with slash pine (Pinus elliottii Engelm.) becoming more predominant on hydric soils, though ...
متن کاملInteractions among overstory structure, seedling life-history traits, and fire in frequently burned neotropical pine forests.
Fire-dependent pine forests in the Caribbean Basin cover extensive areas in the coastal plain of the Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico and on several islands in the Bahamas Archipelago, Cuba, Hispaniola, and the Honduran Bay islands. These forests are high in conservation value but, unfortunately, remain mostly unprotected. Moreover, even though they are fire dependent, the use of fire for fores...
متن کاملTop Grafting Longleaf x Slash Pine F1 Hybrids on Mature Longleaf and Slash Pine Interstocks
-Top grafting is used to accelerate the breeding cycle of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L). Scions, collected from seedlings as young as 1 year from seed, are grafted onto mature interstocks of the same or a related species. Male and female strobili production often begins 1 or 2 years after grafting, thus potentially decreasing the generation time by several years over conventional accelerated br...
متن کاملSlash Pine: Characteristics, History, Status, and Trends
-Slash pine is the premier tree species on many sites throughout the South. Its ease of establishment and early growth, however, has extended its range to many sites where its performance has been less than ideal. For that reason, the acreage and volume of slash pine are declining. Nonetheless, it will continue to be the favored species on many sites where it is the most appropriate and product...
متن کاملThe Effects of Overstory Shading on White Pine Weevil Damage to Interior White Spruce
A retrospective study was conducted in 1993 which quantified the effects of overstory shading on both spruce weevil, Pissodes strobi (Peck) damage, and leader growth on interior white spruce, Picea g/auca (Moench) Voss x engelmannii (Parry ex Englem.). The study was undertaken in the Prince George and Cariboo Forest Regions of British Columbia where the weevil is causing extensive damage to pla...
