A Survival Model For Unthinned Loblolly Pine Plantations That Incorporates Non-Planted Tree Competition, Site Quality, And Incidence Of Fusiform Rust, Y. J. Lee, Dean W. Coble
A Survival Model For Unthinned Loblolly Pine Plantations That Incorporates Non-Planted Tree Competition, Site Quality, And Incidence Of Fusiform Rust, Y. J. Lee, Dean W. Coble
Articles
Future biomass yields are functionally related to the number of trees surviving at a given age. A stand level survival model was developed that incorporates competition of non-planted trees, site quality, and the incidence of fusiform rust (Cronartium quercuum [Berk.] Miyabe ex Shirai f. sp. fusiforme). The model consists of a system of two equations, one of which represents the number of surviving trees infected by fusiform rust while the other represents the number of trees not infected by fusiform rust. Data from unthinned loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) plantations in East Texas were used to fit and evaluate the …

This study was initiated to determine growth response resulting from the application of prescribed fire and herbicide, with and without fertilizatio.n. In. southeast Texas, herbicide, prescribed fire and fertilizer treatments were applied in m1d:rotat1onal loblolly pine plantations 1.5 years after thinning. Five replications were established at. each of two study sites located on similar soils, aspects and slopes. Half of each replication. was randomly selected and fertilized. Eight treatment plots were established 1n e~ch replication with one of each of the four treatments of control, herbicide, fire, and herb1c1de/flre randomly applied to fertilized plots and one of each of the …

Localization Of Expansin Expression During Adventitious And Lateral Rooting In Response To Auxin In Loblolly Pine, Fuyu Xu
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Loblolly Pine is the most important and widely cultivated timber species in the southern United States. Due to its fast growth, it is extensively planted for lumber and pulpwood. Vegetative propagation will enhance gains from genetic improvement of tree species. Rooted-cutting is at present the most reliable non-somatic embryogenesis method for cloning specific genotypes. However, an abrupt decline of adventitious rooting capacity has hindered the application of vegetative propagation in loblolly pine. Unraveling the rooting mechanism may facilitate a way to overcome this barrier. Regulation of lateral and adventitious root formation by auxin has been demonstrated through the application of …
