Extended length rotation to integrate timber and pine nut production with the conservation of structural diversity in a Pinus pinea (L.) forest

Mountain pine in the Pyrenean mountain range is slow growing wood species with small ring width (below 4 mm) and a mean density of 500 kg/m 3 showing few variations within a

Ectomycorrhizal fungi (ECM) and their associated mycorrhizosphere bacteria (MB) play a major role in phosphorous (P) nutrition of maritime pine, particularly in the Landes

pinea bark has a variable number of periderms forming scale-type discontinuous layers over expanded parenchyma

Results from mechanical tests conducted on structural timber cut from different radial positions within the sampled trees are presented and the following hypotheses are tested: (1)

pinea micrograft establishment and development in the five clones assayed after four weeks of culture. Effect of date of collection

(2012), cone quality is related to cone size and weight, since bigger cones are associated with a higher number of seeds (unshelled pine nuts), higher yield, and bigger pine

When we carried out the statistical analysis by performing mixed model with the log of cone weight production being the dependent variable, differences between treatments appeared

Normally, Luxembourg is in favour of more influence for the Commission and the Parliament, but on this occasion, it is in its interest to defend the influence of the
