Item information

Title:

1971 Loblolly Clone Screening Trials for Fertilizer Response in the Greenhouse (Charlottesville Research Center, Research Report No. 64)

Description:

Open pollinated progeny from six selected loblolly pine clones were tested for fertilizer response on three Company soils in the greenhouse. Two fertilizer treatments, phosphorus at 100 lbs. per acre and a complete fertilizer mix, were applied. When averaged for all progeny groups, there was 43% dry weight yield response to the 100 lbs. P/acre treatment and a 288% response to the complete fertilizer mixture. There was no differential clonal response to fertilization. In general, the growth of progeny of Clone 7-22 was slightly inferior to the growth of the other progeny groups.
