European black alder (Alnus glutinosa (L.) Gaertn.) is a widespread tree species associated with wetlands and riparian ecosystems, thus it plays an important ecological role. Due to its fast growth and favorable wood properties it also has a potential to satisfy a growing demand for wood and fiber. However, its growth potential is not fully realized in Poland. In this study we investigated variation...
The programme of testing the progeny of permanent seed stands, parent trees, seed orchards and seedling seed orchards that has been run in Poland enables to determine the genetic value and silvicultural quality of the progeny of components of primary forest material. A better knowledge of population variability and adaptability to particular environmental conditions also allows for the updating and...
This paper presents the genetic variability in the growth parameters and morphological traits, as well as the silvicultural quality of progeny of 23 European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) provenances from south−eastern Poland. The research was conducted on the experimental plot established in the Łosie Forest District in spring 2006. After 10 years, during the spring and autumn, we determined and measured...
The aim of this paper is to investigate and compare structural, mechanical and physical properties of wood of Norway spruce growing on experimental plot in Rogów (central Poland). The planting material consisted of seeds sourced from six selected provenances. Three of them originated from lowlands, while the others have mountain origins (tab. 1). The plot was established in 1975 and the wood was harvested...
The study evaluated the sensitivity of European larch (Larix decidua) of two provenances to thermo−pluvial conditions on the provenance plot located in Sękocin Stary (52°05‵ N, 20°51‵ E, 125 m a.s.l.). The studied larches originated from Pelplin (lowland, northern Poland, 50 m a.s.l.) and Szczytna (upland, southern Poland, 525 m a.s.l.). The trees of both provenances differed in terms of their quantitative...
European beech is one of the most important broadleaved tree species in Poland and will play probably even more significant role in the future due to the predicted climate change. The main objectives of this study was to analyse and compare the growth parameters and morphological traits between 23 European beech provenances from south−eastern Poland (fig. 1). The research was conducted on the experimental...
The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between the quality of habitat and the quality of Scots pine wood. We focused on the wood from mature stands growing on poor habitats on inland dunes in the Notecka Forest and on former farmlands (central and western Poland). We selected 12 trees, from which we took wood samples for tree ring investigation. We determined the age of trees, width...
This paper describes the variability of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) provenances in the IUFRO experiment located in Rogów (central Poland). The silvicultural quality and growth of 17 European provenances at the age of 28 years were examined, including height, diameter at breast height, standing volume, straightness of stem and health status. Populations from Poland (Spała, Miłomłyn, Rychtal),...
The paper analyses the variability of selected adaptive, growth and morphological parameters of 16 Scots pine provenances from Poland. Their silvicultural value and usefulness under the growth conditions in Central Poland were assessed. The empirical part was carried out on the experimental plot established in spring 1966 in Lipce Reymontowskie Forest Range, Rogów Forest Experimental Station. In subsequent...
