Diameter growth of Zanthoxylum kellermanii P. Wilson in a tropical evergreen forest of northern Oaxaca, Mexico

The seasonal diameter growth of a commercially valuable tree species, Zanthoxylum kellermanii (P. Wilson), was determined. Twenty-two trees were selected in six diameter categories and dendrometric bands were used to take bimonthly growth readings. Other readings related to crown characteristics wer...

description The seasonal diameter growth of a commercially valuable tree species, Zanthoxylum kellermanii (P. Wilson), was determined. Twenty-two trees were selected in six diameter categories and dendrometric bands were used to take bimonthly growth readings. Other readings related to crown characteristics were also taken: quality (symmetry, vigor, density of foliage) and positions (light incidence). Mean annual growth in diameter fluctuated from 0,86 cm to 1,87 cm within diameter categories; from 0,52 cm to 2,04 cm within crown qualities and from 0,73 cm to 1,70 cm within crown positions. Analyses of variance showed highly significant differences (p≤0,001) among diameter categories, as well as among crown qualities and positions. Tools such as dendrometric bands along with regression models, proved to be useful to determine and project the diameter increment of the species studied.

Se determinó el crecimiento estacional en diámetro de una especie de importancia maderable: Zanthoxylum kellermanii P. Wilson. Se seleccionaron 22 árboles en seis categorías diamétricas y se les instalaron bandas dendrométricas para tomar lecturas bimensuales de su crecimiento. También se registraron características relacionadas con la copa de los árboles: calidad (simetría, vigor, densidad del follaje) y posición (incidencia de luz). El crecimiento promedio anual en diámetro fluctuó de 0,86 cm a 1,87 cm en las categorías diamétricas, de 0,52 cm a 2,04 cm en las calidades de copa y de 0,73 cm a 1,70 cm en las posiciones de copa. Los análisis de varianza mostraron diferencias altamente significativas (p<0 ,001) entre categorías diamétricas, así como entre calidades y posiciones de copa. Herramientas como la banda dendrométrica apoyada en modelos de regresión fueron de gran utilidad para el registro y proyección del incremento en diámetro de la especie estudiada.  Instituto de Ecología, A.C. 2016-08-30 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo evaluado por pares application/pdf https://myb.ojs.inecol.mx/index.php/myb/article/view/1170 10.21829/myb.2010.1621170 Madera y Bosques; Vol. 16 No. 2 (2010): Verano 2010; 19-33 Madera y Bosques; Vol. 16 Núm. 2 (2010): Verano 2010; 19-33 2448-7597 1405-0471 spa https://myb.ojs.inecol.mx/index.php/myb/article/view/1170/1350 Derechos de autor 2016 Madera y Bosques
