Abstract

This project supports improved management and deployment of sub-tropical pines for solid
wood products. It had three major objectives, in respect of both growth rate and standing tree wood properties: 1) to compare major and potential pine species and hybrids for south-east Queensland; 2) to investigate selection strategies for identifying improved families and clones, and make selections; and, 3) to evaluate both the separate and combined effects of fertiliser application, weed control and genetic improvement in a young hybrid pine trial.
