Rythme saisonnier de croissance en diamètre et en hauteur chez le Pin maritime

Variation in the phenology of shoot elongation between geographic provenances of maritime pine (Pinus pinaster) - implications for the synchrony with the phenology of the twisting rust fungus, Melampsora pinitorqua

“…Maritime pine (Pinus pinaster Ait) shoot elongation has been studied extensively with respect to seasonal pattern (Illy and Castaing, 1968), genetic control (Kremer, 1982), and morphogenetic components (Kremer andRoussel, 1982, 1986;Kremer and Lascoux, 1987). However, most studies have focussed on quantitative aspects since they have concerned breeding for higher growth rates.…”
