The effect of contrasting crown attributes in clonal Pinus taeda trees on forest growth, stand dynamics, and biomass distribution
The primary objective of this study is to examine how the differing crown attributes produced by three clonal varieties and one family of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) affect forest growth, biomass distribution, and stand dynamics. Here we report the contrast for two Clones: A and B
A secondary objective is to examine how these crown attributes correspond to the thinning response of the different genotypes.
