In the situation of limited number of pesticides being approved for use in forest nurseries it is necessary to examine new products available on European market that stimulate growth and improve resilience and vitality of seedlings as a part of intgrated plant protection program. Paper presents test of fertilizer Actifos used in seven Polish nurseries in order to stimulate the growth of seedlings...
This paper addresses problems associated with the silvicultural planning in the Norway spruce mire forests (Sphagno girgensohnii−Piceetum Polak. 1962) that are characterized by an uneven−aged structure and a high degree of irregularity at small scale. Based on detailed inventory using 30 permanent circular sample plots in two control units located in the Augustów Forest (NE Poland), the BDq method...
Debarking of trees and foraging on the phloem is an economical problem for forestry in North America. Scientists in America investigated the feeding behavior of black bears (Ursus americanus) during the spring while this problem was only partially investigated in Poland. In the Polish Carpathians most damage occurs on coniferous trees such as fir Abies alba, larch Larix decidua and spruce Picea abies.
The aim of this study was to investigate differences in radial increment reaction of Norway spruces from the Beskidy Zachodnie Mountains (S Poland). Spruce stands were located at different altitudes and slope aspect. Two altitudinal zones were distinguished by a separating altitude of 900 m a.s.l. The den− drochronological belts, consistent in terms of radial increment, amount to 200−250 m in the...
The paper describes evaluation of spruce radial growth variability, based on of synchronized individual increment sequences (dendroscales). The empirical material were increment samples from 215 trees, growing on ten research plots in the Silesian and Żywiec Beskids. For each plot in each year there was calculated the raw average chronology, indexed chronology and the coefficient of variation for...
In the natural stands of the lower−montane zone in the 'Łopuszna Valley' Reserve (Gorczański National Park) consisting of beech, fir and spruce, a specific phenomenon was observed, which in other natural forests of the Western Carpathians occurred only occasionally. In the years 1981−2011, along with the increase in the proportion of beech in stands and in regeneration, which is now common issue in...
Study was performed in multi−species stand located in the Świętokrzyski National Park (central Poland). Silver fir, Norway spruce and Scots pine trees that grew in a uniform habitat conditions were selected. The trees showed the differences and similarities of changes of the size of radial increment, which result from species−specific sensitivity to selected meteorological elements
The genetic variation of Norway spruce provenances from fourteen geographical regions were tested in the IPTNS−IUFRO 1964/68 experiment in Krynica. The genetic structure of seven isozyme systems coded by eleven loci was described. Parameters of genetic polymorphism i.e. the average number of alleles per locus and observed heterozygosity were 1.47 and 0.12, respectively. The spruces from Belarus were...
