NMR studies on Fraser fir Abies fraseri (Pursh) Poir. Lignins

Holzforschung, 2005
Abstract The composition of mature, juvenile uninfested and juvenile infested Fraser fir wood (Rotholz) and the structures of lignins isolated from these woods were elucidated to verify differences between juvenile and mature wood and the effect of balsam woolly adelgid (BWA) infestation.

Structure and function of flexure wood in Abies fraseri

Tree Physiology, 1989
Wood produced during flexure in one-year-old leaders of Abies fraseri (Pursh) Poir. (Fraser fir) was analyzed anatomically and radio-densitometrically. More xylem cells were produced in stems subjected to flexing than in stems that were not flexed. The lumens of tracheids produced in response to flexure were smaller than the lumens of tracheids in ...

Geographical variability of monoterpenes from Abies balsamea and A. fraseri

Phytochemistry, 1972
Abstract Nearly 300 trees of Abies balsamea and A. fraseri from 29 locations covering the entire ranges of these species were examined for composition of their cortical monoterpenes. Eastern A. balsamea was intermediate in terms of most of its monoterpenes, with A. fraseri and western A. balsamea representing two opposite chemical extremes.

Environmental and chemical control of cone formation in plantation-grown Abies fraseri

open access: yes, 2016
Fraser fir (Abies fraseri) is economically important as a premium Christmas tree in the United States. Christmas tree producers in the Midwest incur substantial monetary losses because of early and heavy cone production.

Thigmomorphogenesis: Field and laboratory studies of Abies fraseri in response to wind or mechanical perturbation

Physiologia Plantarum, 1986
Field‐ and greenhouse‐grown Abies fraseri (Pursh) Poir. (Fraser fir) were analyzed for wind‐ or mechanically‐induced flexure changes. These changes included inhibition of stem and needle elongation, reinforcement of branch bases around the stem, and increased radial growth in the direction of the mechanical perturbation (MP).
