Survival and growth of Pinus echinata and Quercus seedlings in response to simulated summer and winter prescribed burns
First-year seedlings of shortleaf pine (Pinus echinatu Mill.), southern red oak (Quercus falcatu Michx.), and white oak (Quercus alha L.) were subjected to simulated prescribed burns during August (growing season) or January (dormant season) on an IJpper Coastal Plain site in southeastern Arkansas, U.S.A. Survival and growth of resprouting rootstocks were compared with control seedlings through...
متن کاملIncreasing Pine Survival and Early Growth by Planting “morphologically Improved” Seedlings
“Morphologically improved” seedlings (large-diameter seedlings grown at low nursery spacings) have a higher probability of survival (about 5% better) than regular seedlings since they have larger root systems, a higher root-weight ratio (root dry weight/seedling dry weight), and have a greater root growth potential. In addition, these seedlings will grow faster during the first several years af...
متن کاملEffect of planting depth on growth of open-rooted Pinus elliottii and Pinus taeda seedlings in the United States
Three studies in the Coastal Plain of Georgia were remeasured 7 or 8 years after planting to determine the effects of planting depth on field performance of open-rooted seedlings [root-collar diameter (RCD) ≥ 5 mm]. Average planting depth (i.e. shoot height before planting minus shoot height above ground after planting) for machine planted P. elliottii was 14 cm while hand-planted P. taeda seed...
متن کاملEffects of spacing and post-planting treatments on survival and growth of Fraxinus angustifolia seedlings.
This study was conducted at a bottomland hardwood site with heavy textured soil in Akyazi, Turkey to determine the effect of initial spacing (3.0 x 3.0, 3.0 x 2.0, 2.5 x 1.6 and 2.5 x 1.2 m) and post-planting treatments (untreated check, moving, hoeing, disking, and hoeing plus disking) on early survival and growth of Fraxinus angustifolia Vahl. One-year old bare-root seedlings (70 +/- 5 cm in ...
متن کاملIntrogression between Pinus taeda L. and Pinus echinata Mill
Loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) and shortleaf pine (Pinus echinata Mill.) have widely overlapping geographic ranges. Hybridization between the two species has interested tree breeders for a long time. Morphologically, the two pine species are different. The needles of loblolly pine are 6 to 9 inches long, usually with three yellow-green needles per fascicle; but shortleaf pine needles are 3 to 5...
