Abstract:
In 1994, 33 families of 1-year bare-rooted Pinus elliottii seedlings were planted in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province.In August, September and October of 2014-2016, resin tapping was carried out and investigations were made on growth traits of single tree, wood properties and tree form traits. The result demonstrated that resin yield had negative correlation with modulus of elasticity and branching angel, and weak correlation with wood basic density.There was strong correlation of annual resin yield among different years.The resin yield had medium correlation with tree growth traits and unit resin yield.The experiment concluded that selection of high resin yield families without wood modulus of elasticity.
