Pitch canker in young loblolly pines: influence of precommercial thinning and fertilization on disease incidence and severity

1999-08-01

Abstract excerpt

Pitch canker disease affects southern pines, causing shoot dieback, stem deformation, and reduced growth. Disease occurrence is influenced by genetic resistance, abiotic and biotic environmental factors, and cultural practices. In young loblolly pine plantations with significant disease occurrence, options for disease control must focus primarily on silvicultural practices such as precommercial thinning or fertili...
