Growth and survival of lodgepole pine and Scots pine after 25 years in a reciprocal transplant experiment in Canada and Sweden

Abstract: Lodgepole pine is native to western North America, but it is also planted as a fast-growing alternative to Scots pine in Sweden. The production of these two species, when grown as native and as exotic species, was compared in a transcontinental two-species provenance experiment. The tests were planted in 1986 on five sites in northwestern Canada and two sites in Sweden, and included full-sib families, half-sib families, seed orchard collections and natural stand seed collections of both species. After 25 years… Show more

“…Moose seems to prefer Scots pine over lodgepole pine at fertile sites, but prefer lodgepole pine at poor sites (Niemelä & Danell 1988). Top height, stem diameter and volume production were all lower at Garsås, despite its more southern location than at Renberget (Fries et al 2015) indicating that…”

“…that an exotic tree species in a new environment may have higher fitness than an indigenous species due to the absence of restrictive pests and pathogens endemic in its native range. However, the exotic species have less clearly superior survival rates when the 10% best seed-lots are compared, indicating that it may be possible to find sufficiently well adapted materials of either exotic or indigenous species to ensure good survival and also production rates (Fries et al 2015).…”
