Specific gravity of wood from two pines and its relation with edaphic properties

The aim of this study was to identify wood density differences between sites for each species as well as to relate the basic wood density of Pinus patula and Pinus ayacahuite var. veitchii with some soil physico-chemical properties. In order to identify differences between wood density, soil propert...

description The aim of this study was to identify wood density differences between sites for each species as well as to relate the basic wood density of Pinus patula and Pinus ayacahuite var. veitchii with some soil physico-chemical properties. In order to identify differences between wood density, soil properties and assess the influence degree of pH, percentage of organic matter, humic and non humic fractions, total carbon, texture, porosity and soil bulk density, two natural stands where both species coexist, were selected from Central Mexico. 78 trees were used to determine basic wood density. No differences within species between sites for basic wood density were found. Most of the edaphic properties were significantly different between sites and higher variation were observed within Ejido Ingenio del Rosario. Soil bulk density was negatively correlated with wood density of Pinus patula native from Ejido Ingenio del Rosario, Xico, Veracruz. It is concluded that soil factors do not influence strongly the expression of this feature in both species, so commercial or conservation plantations can be done in different soils types without changes in wood quality.

Para identificar las diferencias en densidad básica de la madera por especie y algunas características físicas y químicas del suelo de dos sitios, así como su influencia sobre la densidad básica de la madera, se eligieron dos rodales naturales en el centro de México donde coexisten Pinus patula y Pinus ayacahuite var. veitchii. La densidad básica de la madera se determinó a partir de 78 individuos. Las muestras de suelo se tomaron al pie de cada árbol para determinar el pH, textura y densidad aparente del suelo, porcentaje de materia orgánica, porosidad, carbono total así como fracciones húmica y no húmica. No se detectaron diferencias entre sitios por especie para densidad básica de la madera. El análisis edáfico evidenció diferencias significativas para la mayoría de las propiedades entre sitios y mayor variación dentro de Ejido Ingenio del Rosario Xico, Veracruz, México; solo se verificó correlación negativa entre la densidad básica de la madera de Pinus patula y la densidad aparente del suelo del rodal de Ejido Ingenio del Rosario, Xico, Ver; por lo que se concluye que estas especies pueden establecerse y desarrollarse en sitios con características edáficas distintas sin presentar cambios importantes en la calidad de su madera.
