Douglas-fir hydraulic architecture and relationships among xylem properties at multiple scales via a Bayesian analysis

Creator:

Dunham, Sonya M.

Abstract:

This study investigated variation in xylem anatomy, hydraulic properties, and the relationship between anatomy and properties within Douglas-fir trees at multiple scales. The hierarchical scales in the study included fertilization treatments (fertilized and unfertilized), trees within the treatments, and positions within the trees. Tracheid diameter, tracheid length, percent latewood, number...
