An annual tree survival and diameter growth model for loblolly and slash pine plantations in east Texas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
An annual growth model that predicts individual tree survival and diameter growth was developed for loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) and slash pine (Pinus elliottii) trees in East Texas as a function of individual-tree diameter, plantation age, basal area per

Space Use and Movements During Egg Laying Associated With Nest Fate and Female Survival in Eastern Wild Turkeys

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
We assessed behaviors of female wild turkeys during the laying period and evaluated impacts of those behaviors on nest success and female survival. We found that increased movements during laying resulted in a decreased probability of nest success but an increased probability of female survival during incubation.

Flooding and a complex predator community drive American oystercatcher nest and chick survival in Virginia

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 2, February 2026.
We investigated low American oystercatcher (Haematopus palliatus) productivity in the Virginia barrier islands, which historically supported high oystercatcher reproductive success. We found that chick survival was lower than nest survival, and that management may need to adapt to address evolving threats from coastal flooding and a multi‐guild ...

Self-referencing Site Index Equations for Unmanaged Loblolly and Slash Pine Plantations in East Texas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The Schnute growth function was used in this study to model site index for unmanaged or low-intensity managed loblolly pine (Pinus taeda, L.) and slash pine (Pinus elliottii, Engelm.) plantations in east Texas.

Genome Sequence and Population Genomic Analysis of Cronartium quercuum f.sp. fusiforme

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Fusiform rust, caused by Cronartium quercuum f. sp. fusiforme (Cqf), is the most severe disease of planted southern pines in the south‐eastern United States. Despite the critical role pathogen genomics play in disease outcomes, the population structure and genetic variability of Cqf remain poorly characterised.

Management Practices to Support Increased Biodiversity in Managed Loblolly Pine Plantations

open access: yesEDIS, 2008
FOR-183, a 9-page fact sheet by Michael Andreu, Kevin Zobrist, and Thomas Hinckley, reviews the literature to identify a spectrum of practices that support increased biodiversity in intensively managed loblolly pine plantations.

Fusiform Rust Trends in East Texas [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Four surveys of pine plantations in East Texas between 1969 and 1984 indicate that fusiform rust (Cronartium quercuum (Berk.) Miyabe ex Shirai f. sp. fusiforme) infection rates are increasing on slash pine (Pinus elliottii Engelm. var.

Biology, Detection, and Management of Lecanosticta acicola: Emerging Challenges for the Management of Brown Spot Needle Blight in Pine Forests

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Brown spot needle blight (BSNB), caused by the fungus Lecanosticta acicola, is a widely distributed foliar disease of pines that causes needle necrosis, premature defoliation, and growth loss in both natural forests and commercial plantations. Although L.

Use of Haploid Mixtures and Heteroduplex Analysis Enhance Polymorphisms Revealed by Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2000
PCR-based codominant genetic markers were developed by using primer sequences designed from cDNA clones of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.). Such markers offer certain advantages relative to simple-sequence repeat (SSR), also known as short-tandem repeat ...

Modeling Thinning in East Texas Loblolly and Slash Pine Plantations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A new thinning model was proposed for loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) and slash pine (P. elliottii Engelm.) plantations in east Texas. The new model follows the index of suppression methodology introduced by Pienaar (1979).
