AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Rachel L. Knutson for the degree of Master of Science in Economics
Compression wood has little impact on the water relations of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) seedlings despite a large effect on shoot hydraulic properties

Creator:

Spicer, Rachel and Gartner, Barbara L.

Abstract:

• Compression wood has been shown to reduce stem permeability, but it is not known to what extent it affects leaf‐level processes. Here, we report whole‐plant hydraulic properties of Douglas‐fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) seedlings induced to form varying amounts of compression wood. • Seedlings were grown under three bending treatments to...
