Abstract

Increasing interest in the management of sugar pine (Pinus lambertiana Dougl.) in the mixed-conifer stands of the west slope of the Sierra Nevada has pointed out the need of certain silvical knowledge. One bit of required knowledge is the area that can be seeded effectively by a sugar pine tree. The forest manager must have this information in marking a stand to obtain natural reproduction of sugar pine.
