Temporal effect of vegetation management on growth and wood quality of conifers in a western Oregon plantation

Creator:: Goracke, Heidi S. Roe
Abstract:: Concern over the increasing proportion of juvenile wood grown in second growth plantations has led to a large amount of research on the effects of common silvicultural practices on wood quality. Lacking is research on the effect of timing and duration of vegetation control on wood quality near the pith...

Conifer phytotoxicity and vegetation control efficacy of ten selected herbicides

Creator:: Coate, Jeremy E.
Abstract:: Ten herbicides (atrazine, azafenidin, chlorsulfuron, clopyralid, hexazinone, imazapic, imazapyr, metsulfuron, pendimethalin, and sulfometuron) were evaluated for phytotoxicity in first-year seedlings of eight conifer species (Douglas-fir, grand fir, noble fir, redwood, Sitka spruce, western hemlock, western red cedar, and western white pine). Six of these herbicides (atrazine, clopyralid, hexazinone, imazapyr, metsulfuron,...

Effects of vegetation control, stock size, fertilization, and soil moisture on the shoot and root development of Douglas-fir seedlings

Creator:: Burney, Owen T.
Abstract:: The overall purpose of this study was to examine the root and shoot development of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) seedlings at two distinct time periods in seedling establishment (after I and 3 growing seasons) in response to fertilizer, stock size, vegetation control, and soil moisture treatments. Two separate experiments...

Effects of fertilization, vegetation control, and sulfur on swiss needle cast and growth of coastal Douglas-fir saplings

Creator:: Crane, Gabriel A.
Abstract:: A series of studies and replicated field sites were implemented in the Oregon Coast Range within Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) sapling plantations infected with varying levels of Swiss needle cast (SNC) caused by the fungus, Phaeocryptopus gaeumannii (Rhode) Petrak (PG). This research was conducted to understand the effects of...

Effect of soil type, fertilizer, and soil moisture on 1+0 Douglas-fir [Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco] seedlings

Creator:: Arellano Ogaz, Eduardo
Abstract:: Soil physical, chemical, and biological components as well as climate and physiographic characteristics can interact to have a great effect on forest regeneration and seedling growth response to different establishment activities. The objective of this project was to increase the understanding of the interactions between soil type, controlled-release fertilizers, and...

Effects of fertilization at the time of planting on field performance of 1+1 Douglas-fir [Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco] seedlings

Creator:: Alzugaray Oswald, Patricio Javier
Abstract:: To study the combined effects of seedling quality and fertilization at the time of planting, three experiments were established in western Oregon during the winter of 2000. The first experiment investigated the effect of preplanting rootvolume and fertilization rate on the field performance of 1+1 Douglas-fir seedlings during two growing...

Chlorophyll fluorescence as a measure of cold hardiness and freezing stress in 1 + 1 Douglas-fir seedlings : response to seasonal changes in the nursery

Creator:: Fisker, Susan E.
Abstract:: Two-year old Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) seedlings from two seed lots of different predicted hardiness levels were grown in two separate nurseries. Seedlings were lifted every four weeks from early October 1991 through March 1992 and exposed to controlled freezing temperatures. Fluorescence emissions of the seedlings were measured prior...

Effects of water stress on phenology, physiology, and morphology of containerized Douglas-fir (Psuedotsuga menziesii (mirb.) Franco) seedlings

Creator:: Khan, Shafiqur Rehman
Abstract:: Approximately 3-4 month-old containerized Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) seedlings (seed zone 262 and 271) were subjected to 6 moisture stress treatments (65, 53, 41, 29, 17 and 7% soil water content by volume of dry soil) starting July 4 to September 22, 1991 at Forest Research Laboratory's greenhouse at...

Transplant shock in stored and unstored 2+0 Douglas-fir seedlings : effect of initial root volume and soil water content

Creator:: Haase, Diane L.
Abstract:: Transplant shock was induced by applying a range of soil water contents to unstored and cold-stored two-yearold (2+0) bareroot Douglas-fir seedlings graded by root volume. Moisture stress had the greatest influence on morphological characteristics commonly associated with transplant shock. Terminal growth, lateral growth, stem diameter growth, and needle length increased...

Fall fertilization effects on Douglas-fir seedling quality

Creator:: Birchler, Todd M.
Abstract:: Coastal Douglas-fir (Psuedotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) 1 + 1 seedlings were fertilized with two types of fertilizers (NB4NO3+K2SO4 and (NH.4)2 SO4+KC1) at four rates (0, 80, 160, 320 kg N and K/ha) split over 3 application dates (September 19, October 13, November 1, 1996). By January 10, total Kjeldahl nitrogen...
