The impact of various factors on seed production in a
Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) seed orchard in
western Oregon was examined by monitoring the fate of
seeds in thirty cones, stratified into three crown levels,
on each of ten trees during the 1984 growing season.
Cones were examined monthly between April...

One hundred and four seed sources from throughout the range of Douglas-fir (Pseudotecia menzieaii (Plirb.) Franco)
were analysed at 20 enzyme loci to determine patterns of genetic variation and to examine intraspecific phylogeny. On average the seed sources were polymorphic at 37 percent
of the loci (range 5.0-65.0), with mean...
