摘要: Abstract Comparison of branch-level foliage and branch (wood+bark) biomass relationships for North Carolina Coastal (NCC) Oklahoma/Arkansas (O/A) loblolly pine ( Pinus taeda L.) seed sources provided an indication partitioning differences between these two sources. The objective this study was to quantify compare the NCC O/A provenances on excessively drained site in southeastern Oklahoma assess their patterns; a modeling process developed accomplish objective. It found that source significantly influenced amount per branch. If tree dimensions were held constant, branches would carry approximately 30% more than branches. relationship production did not differ Vertical distributions be similar as well. Thus, droughty observed study: (1) tended partition into component at individual level source; (2) propensity level, (3) vertical distribution within crown.
