This special number includes: Preservation of the understorey of Beech stands tended by moderate thinning from above, as exemplified by the 'Michaelis stands' in Bramwald instructional forest (G. Freist; 10 ref.) [the author favours the retention of understorey Beech for silvicultural reasons and...

Making use of numerical data from Finnish yield tables for Pinus sylvestris, the author examined different expressions defining normality in even-aged stands, e.g. the bell-shaped curve, the sigmoid curve of relative cumulative frequencies, the probit test, and Jedlinski's diameter-distribution...

Germination of Pinus densiflora seed in the dark was stimulated by pre-sowing treatment with HgCl2 [cf. F.A. 29 No. 3744]. Treated seed overcame the inhibitory effect of far-red illumination to some extent, but not when the testa had been removed before treatment. The toxicity shown by high...
