Abstract

During the course of a study on the nutrient content of foliage of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda), weight determinations and nutrient analyses were made on all aboveground parts of 10 trees. The data, although limited in scope, are being presented because of the scarcity of such information in the literature, and should be helpful to those interested in the nutrient cycle.
