Effect of Seed Source on Physical Properties of Scots Pine (a Case Study in Neka, Iran)
This study investigated the seed source effect on the physical properties of exotic Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris). For this purpose, nine clear pine trees grown from the Spanish, Armenian and Serbian (part of former Yugoslavia) seed sources were selected from the Vanamak-Neka (eastern part of Mazand...
