Fine root respiration in mature eastern white pine (Pinus strobus) in situ: the importance of CO(2) in controlled environments.
We measured seasonal fine root respiration rate in situ while controlling chamber temperature and [CO(2)]. Atmospheric [CO(2)] ([CO(2)](a)) and measured soil [CO(2)] ([CO(2)](s)) were alternately delivered to a cuvette containing intact fine roots of eastern white pine (Pinus strobus L.). Respiration rates were consistently higher in [CO(2)](a) than in [CO(2)](s) and were almost three times hig...
متن کاملThe Effect of Experimental Prescribed Fire on White Pine Regeneration
We examined the effects of prescribed fire on white pine (Pinus strobus) advance regeneration in small experimental plots in mixed hardwood-pine forests in southwestern Virginia during the fall and spring. Fires killed all newly germinated seedlings in both spring and fall. Saplings (ranging from 0.7 3.4 m in height) all suffered some degree of crown scorch, but sapling survival was higher on p...
متن کاملWinter water relations of New England conifers and factors influencing their upper elevational limits. I. Measurements.
The upper elevational limits of tree species are thought to be controlled by abiotic factors such as temperature and the soil and atmospheric conditions affecting plant water status. We measured relative water contents (RWC), water potentials (Psi) and cuticular conductances (g(c)) of shoots of four conifer species-eastern hemlock (Tsuga canadensis (L.) Carr.), eastern white pine (Pinus strobus...
متن کاملDecline and Death of Pinus spp. in Delaware Caused by Bursaphelenchus xylophilus.
Etiological studies to determine the cause of decline and death of Pinus spp. in Delaware were initiated in 1980. The pinewood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, was found to be the major canse of mortality in Japanese black pine (Pinus thunbergii). When inoculated into healthy 5-yr-old Japanese black pines, B. xylophilus produced typical decline symptoms observed in the field. The xylophilo...
متن کاملAntifungal activity of the essential oils from some species of the genus Pinus.
The chemical composition of the essential oils from the needles of Pinus ponderosa (north american pine), P. resinosa (red pine) and P. strobus (eastern white pine) has been determined by GC/MS (FID). The essential oils from P. resinosa and P. ponderosa in comparison to P. strobus have been characterized by the higher content of beta-pinene (42.4%, 45.7% and 7.9% respectively). On the other han...
