The Effects of Prescribed Burning on Nutrient Content of Selected Understory Species in an East Texas Loblolly-Shortleaf Pine Stand
<p>The objectives of this study were to determine whether prescribed burning affected nutrient levels in leaves and twigs of six species and whether there were differences in response between leaves and twigs. Backfire and headfire treatments were used to determine differences between burning …

AN ANALYSIS OF LOBLOLLY PINE AND SHORTLEAF PINE HYBRIDIZATION USING CHROMATOGRAPHY AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEMS: A CASE STUDY IN EAST TEXAS
<p>East Texas forests contain three native pine species known to hybridize when site conditions are suitable. Due to increased gene flow from hybridization, quantifying hybridization spatially is a growing concern as southeastern United States pine forests are increasingly influenced by improved …

Effects of Felled Shortleaf Pine (Pinus Echinata Mill.) Moisture Loss on Oviposition Preferences and Survival of Sirex Nigricornis F. (Hymenoptera: Siricidae)
… F. (Hymenoptera: Siricidae) utilizes pine as its host during larval development. Females drill through pine bark to deposit eggs, a symbiotic fungus, <em>Amylostereum</em>, and phytotoxic mucus into the tree. In their native range, these insects are not viewed as primary pests because …

Pisolithus Tinctorius Mycobiont Inoculations as a Factor in Performance of Containerized and Bare-Root Shortleaf Pine Seedlings on Lignite Minesoils in Panola County, Texas
… on ectomycorrhizae development of short leaf pine (Pinus echinata) seedlings grown in styroblock containers were tested in the greenhouse. These preliminary tests showed that both spores and mycelia will produce satisfactory ectomycorrhizae development. Various methods of inoculation had …

Effects of Site Preparation on Survival and Growth of Planted Loblolly Pine
… on survival and growth of planted loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) on a loblolly-shortleaf pine-hardwood forest site in East Texas are examined by determining the survival and growth of planted loblolly pine, soil chemical characteristics, and density and height of competing (non-pine) woody …

EVALUATION OF A FOREST RESTORATION STRATEGY ON SMALL MAMMALS IN SOUTHERN PINE ECOSYSTEMS
<p>Industrial forestry replanted historic native pine forests (e.g., longleaf pine [<em>Pinus</em> <em>palustris</em>] and shortleaf pine [<em>Pinus echinata</em>]) to homogenous, high-density plantations consisting of native off-site species (e.g., loblolly pine [<em>Pinus</em> <em>taeda</em>]) …

Soil Carbon Dioxide Efflux in a Naturally Regenerated and a Planted Clear-Cut on the Virginia Piedmont
… of naturally regenerated and planted loblolly pine (Pinus taeda), shortleaf pine (Pinus echinata), and eastern white pine (Pinus strobus) in a 50-acre clear-cut on the Virginia Piedmont. Rates of CO2 efflux were measured every 2 weeks immediately adjacent and away (1m) from newly planted …

Comparison of the Survival and Growth of West Gulf Coastal Plain Pine in East Texas
… L.), longleaf (<em>Pinus palustris</em> Mill.), shortleaf (<em>Pinus echinata</em> Mill.), and slash pines (<em>Pinus elliottii</em> Engelm.) were planted in East Texas to compare initial growth and survival. Containerized seedlings were planted in December 2015 on three study sites in Shelby, …

Horticultural utilization of waste products from sustainable forestry practices in the Pinelands National Reserve
Forestry operations in the Pinelands National Reserve (PNR) produce significant quantities of plant residues, commonly referred to as flailed slash. The residues consist of needles, bark and wood from a variety of pine species that include: pitch pine, Pinus rigida, virginia pine, Pinus virginiana, …
