Cone and Seed Insect Pest Research: The Role of the Southwide Studies
Byram, T. D.; Mangini, A. C.; McKeand, S. E. (2003)A reliable supply of genetically improved pine seed is critical to the success of production forestry. The most significant environmental threat to the ability to meet this demand (over 100,000 pounds per year) is insect ... -
Development of Differential Screening Panels for Slash Pine-Fusiform Rust Reaction Types
Bridgewater, F. E.; Nelson, C. D.; Byram, T. D.; Kubisiak, T. L.; Young, C. H.; Doudrick, R. L. (2003)Understanding the genetic basis for disease resistance is crucial to ensure a successful breeding and deployment strategy for slash pine. A complementary genetic interaction model has been hypothesized for the pine-fusiform ... -
Evaluation of Height as an Early Selection Criterion for Volume and Predictor of Site Index Gain in the Western Gulf
Raley, E. M.; Gwaze, D. P.; Byram, T. D. (2003)Data from repeated periodic measures of height, diameter and volume from eleven loblolly pine progeny tests maintained as part of the Western Gulf Forest Tree Improvement Program (WGFTIP) were analyzed to 1) determine the ... -
