Post-fertilization physiology and growth performance of loblolly pine clones.
The physiological processes leading to enhanced growth of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) following fertilization are not clearly understood. Part of the debate revolves around the temporal response of net photosynthetic rate (A(n)) to fertilization and whether the A(n) response is always positive. We measured light-saturated photosynthetic rate (A(sat)), dark respiration rate, growth and crown ...
متن کاملLoblolly Pine - Pushing the Limits of Growth
The age of intensive plantation forestry in the Southeastern US rapidly approaches. Based on data through age 9 from loblolly pine plantations subjected to complete weed control and multiple fertilizations, growth rates to be expected equal or exceed those for southern pines grown in other countries under intensive cultural practices. Predictions of continuing growth through age 15 and economic...
متن کاملLoblolly Pine
In tests with Pinus taeda L., most properties of wet. formed hardboard were improved by using fiber refined from wood having short, slender tracheids with thin walls. A theoretical analysIs suggested that the fibers fail in bending while under stress induced by the pressing operation. Such bending failures improve conditions for hydrogen bonding, thus improving board properties. Trachelds havmg...

Cutover pine-hardwood s i t es in the Piedmont of central Georgia were prepared by prescribed burning or drum chopping and regenerated to loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) by planting or directseeding. Site preparation had Little effect on soil physical properties. After an average of 12 years, trees were larger in dbh and total height, the merchantable stand was greater, and distribution was more...
