Spruce Pine

Pinus glabra Walter

Comments

provided by eFloras
Pinus glabra is more shade tolerant than most yellow pines. Although the trees grow large, the wood is not much valued. The species is similar in tree form to P . strobus . It resembles P . echinata in shoot and leaf but has less prickly cones and deeper green leaves.

Description

provided by Fire Effects Information System Plants
More info for the terms: frequency, seed, tree

Spruce pine is a medium-sized, native, evergreen conifer. It usually
grows to 90 to 100 feet (27.4-30.5 m) tall and 24 to 36 inches (61-91
cm) in d.b.h. The national champion tree is 125 feet (38.1 m) tall.
The needles are borne in bundles of two and are 1.6 to 4 inches (4-10
cm) long [3,22]. The bark is relatively thin (0.25 to 0.375 inch
[0.64-0.95 cm])[2]. The bark is smooth on young trees, later developing
close ridges with flat plates on the lower trunk of older trees. Upper
branches and trunks maintain the smoother bark [3,23]. The branches are
drooping [17]. Spruce pine develops a moderately deep taproot, with
numerous moderately deep lateral roots. It is obligately mycorrhizal;
seedlings that fail to develop mycorrhizae usually do not survive [2,9].

Longevity is approximately 113 years; the relatively short life span is
probably a result of the high frequency of good seed crops [12].

Fire Ecology

provided by Fire Effects Information System Plants
More info for the term: fire regime

Spruce pine occurs in wet bottomlands that rarely experience fire. It
is not well adapted to fire: the bark is thin and easily damaged, cones
are nonserotinous, and seedling establishment is not enhanced by fire
disturbances. McCune [14] places spruce pine in the fire resilient
group of pines, largely due to its prolific seeding habit. It does not
exhibit any other fire adaptations, nor is it an early colonizer of
disturbed areas (unless provided with a shade or nurse tree).

Fire Management Considerations

provided by Fire Effects Information System Plants
More info for the term: forest

Stoddard [20] described mixed stands of magnolia, beech, oak, and spruce
pine that are usually clear of undergrowth due to heavy shading. He
recommends against prescribed burning for wildlife, since even carefully
controlled, low-severity fires do considerable harm to this type of
forest.

Habitat characteristics

provided by Fire Effects Information System Plants
Spruce pine grows in limited numbers in rich bottomland woods, swamps,
and on hammocks and riverbanks. It occurs on the Coastal Plain where
summers are long, hot, and humid; and winters are mild. Average
rainfall is approximately 50 inches (1,270 mm) per year and generally
evenly distributed, although fall tends to be the driest season [9].

Spruce pine is generally found on acidic sandy loam soils that are
intermediate between dry sandy soils and alluvial bottomland soils
[2,12]. Spruce pine grows well on moderately to poorly drained sites
that may have a high water table or are intermittently waterlogged [12].
Soil orders tend to be Spodosols or Entisols [9].

Regeneration Processes

provided by Fire Effects Information System Plants
More info for the terms: cone, seed

Spruce pine is sexually mature by 10 years of age; peak cone production
occurs between 20 and 40 years of age. Good seed crops occur frequently
[12]. The small, winged seeds are released upon maturity and
disseminated by wind. Seedling establishment does not appear to require
a mineral seedbed [8,12]. Seedlings develop well in the shade of
hardwoods or other pines, forming widespreading lateral roots near the
surface before penetrating deeper into the soil [9].

Successional Status

More info on this topic.

More info for the terms: climax, forest, hardwood, succession

Obligate Climax Species

Spruce pine is very shade tolerant. Seedlings and saplings can grow
where available light is as low as 250 foot-candles (2,778 lux) and are
common in many parts of the southern mixed-hardwood forest where light
intensity is less than 1000 foot-candles (11,111 lux) at noon on a
summer day [2]. It is usually only found in late succession hardwood
stands of magnolia, beech, or other climax species. In these stands, it
is represented by all stages of growth [2,15,16]. Where it is found in
younger seral stands, it has usually become established in the shade of
loblolly or shortleaf pines [9,16]. According to Platt and Schwartz
[24], however, spruce pine appears to capitalize on large-scale
disturbance caused by hurricanes. They state that advance recruits in
localized light gaps that are capable of rapid growth at high light
intensities will capture space in the canopy following large-scale
disruption by hurricanes. Hirsh and Platt found that age structures of
spruce pine tend to consist of discrete age classes corresponding to
dates of hurricanes [25].

Associated Forest Cover

provided by Silvics of North America
Spruce pine is not commonly found in pure stands. More often it is established in the shade of hardwoods such as magnolia (Magnolia spp.), gum (Nyssa spp.), hickory (Carya spp.), beech (Fagus spp.), and oak (Quercus spp.), where it may eventually overtop them. The forest cover types in which spruce pine is included (5) are Loblolly Pine-Shortleaf Pine (Society of American Foresters Type 80), Loblolly Pine (Type 81), Loblolly Pine-Hardwood (Type 82), Slash Pine (Type 84), and Slash Pine-Hardwood (Type 85). Other trees with which it is associated include pine (Pinus spp.), elm (Ulmus spp.), holly (Ilex spp.), cherry (Prunus spp.), hawthorn (Crataegus spp.), fringetree (Chionanthus virginicus), sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), sassafras (Sassafras albidum), red maple (Acer rubrum), yellow-poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera), pondcypress (Taxodium distichum var. nutans), loblolly-bay (Gordonia lasianthus), southern redcedar (Juniperus silicicola), flowering dogwood (Cornus florida), sourwood (Oxydendrum arboreum), redbay (Persea borbonia), and sweetleaf (Symplocos tinctoria). Shrubs and woody vine associates include beautyberry (Callicarpa americana), southern bayberry (Myrica cerifera), inkberry (Ilex glabra), sweet pepperbush (Clethra alnifolia), Alabama supplejack (Berchemia scandens), blueberry (Vaccinium spp.), poison-ivy (Toxicodendron radicans), greenbriar (Smilax spp.), blackberry (Rubus spp.), and grape (Vitis spp.).

Climate

provided by Silvics of North America
In the Southeastern United States where spruce pine grows, the climate is characterized by long, hot, humid summers and mild winters. Annual rainfall is about 1270 mm (50 in), which is normally distributed about evenly throughout the year. Fall tends to be the driest season but summer droughts can occur. The growing season is about 240 days and the average annual temperature is 16° C (61° F).

Damaging Agents

provided by Silvics of North America
Because spruce pine is usually found dispersed, it is less susceptible to insect and disease damage than are the other southern pines. It is immune to infection by Cronartium quercuum f. sp. fusiforme (13) and is only known to be susceptible to Cronartium comandrae when planted outside its native range. Similarly, the Nantucket pine tip moth (Rhyacionia frustrana), can cause severe damage to spruce pine planted outside its range but is not considered a problem within its range (17). A gall mite (Trisetacus floridanus), attacks terminal shoots and causes the formation of galls and shortening of the shoot. No control is known for this insect.

Spruce pine at any age is highly susceptible to fire because of its thin bark (6.4 to 9.7 mm; 0.25 to 0.38 in). In the crown the bark is smooth and light gray, becoming darker with slightly irregular, shallow fissures with flat connecting ridges on mature boles. The ridges develop into small, closely appressed, light reddish brown scales. This finely furrowed bark is not at all plated like other southern pines but more closely resembles that of southern red oak.

Flowering and Fruiting

provided by Silvics of North America
Spruce pine trees generally begin producing cones by age 10. They are most prolific between the ages of 20 to 40 years (14). The trees are monoecious, with pollen cones on weaker branches below the seed cones. First-year seed conelets appear in March in the northern parts of its distribution in Mississippi and somewhat earlier farther south.

Growth and Yield

provided by Silvics of North America
Spruce pine is one of the larger eastern North American pines, reaching a maximum of 38.1 m (125 ft) in height and 122 cm. (48 in) in d.b.h. They are full grown at 60 to 75 years, and as a scattered tree, often grow to a height of 27.4 to 30.5 m (90 to 100 ft) with a d.b.h. of 61 to 91 cm (24 to 36 in) (8). The largest living spruce pine presently recorded measures 128 cm (50.3 in) in d.b.h. and 37.5 m (123 ft) in height. In a stand environment, spruce pine self-prunes to a height of 15.2 to 18.3 m (50 to 60 ft) (14).

Its greatest commercial importance is in Louisiana, south Alabama, and Mississippi, where 80 percent of the standing volume is found (18). Although it is not of great importance regionally, it can support a small, local forest industry. Some spruce pine has been planted on a small scale in South Carolina (4). The volume of growing stock on commercial forest land is estimated at 13 131 000 m³ (464 million ft³) and the volume of sawtimber at 56 600 000 m³ (2 billion ft³).

Little growth and yield data are available, but estimates of different growth rates have been made on 12 trees in fast growth sites and 12 trees in slow ones within the natural range (table 1) (8).

Reaction to Competition

provided by Silvics of North America
Little is known about spruce pine's ability to compete for minerals and water. Although it is classed as very shade tolerant, it is a slow grower under heavy competition. When planted with sweetgum and Shumard oak (Q. shumardii) on a bottom land site near Charleston, SC, spruce pine did not perform as well as sweetgum but grew slightly better than the Shumard oak. Seedling survival following the first growing season was similar for all three species (more than 90 percent), but by the end of five growing seasons, herbaceous vine and brush competition effects were reflected in overall survival and growth. Sweetgum had a 91 percent survival and grew best (4.1 m, 13.4 ft) on this site, while Shumard oak demonstrated higher survival than did spruce pine (72 percent vs. 48 percent) but did not grow as well (1.68 m vs. 2.38 m, 5.5 ft vs. 7.8 ft) (19). Because of its shade tolerance, spruce pine may be able to compete successfully on cutover lands where other southern pines are unsuccessful (9).

Seed Production and Dissemination

provided by Silvics of North America
Second-year cones mature during September and October and seeds are disseminated during November. When ripe, cones are green and have a specific gravity of 0.88. Test results show seeds are mature and germinable when the cones float in SAE 20-weight motor oil. Filled seeds sink in absolute ethanol, and empty or partially filled seeds float. Cleaned seeds are small, ranging from 88,180 to 114,640/kg (40,000 to 52,000/lb) and average 101,410/kg (46,000/lb). Seeds at a moisture content of between 5 and 10 percent have been stored for as long as 10 years at -17.8° to -15.0° C (0° to 5° F) and remained viable (16).

Seedling Development

provided by Silvics of North America
Seeds are not highly viable if the trees are isolated and poorly pollinated. Stratification improves seed germination (11). Sixty percent germination can usually be attained after only 7 days of stratification at 4° C (39° F) (3); however, the recommended cold stratification regime is 0.6° to 5.0° C (33° to 41° F) for 28 days (16).

Germination is epigeal (16). Seedlings develop well in shade of hardwoods and other pines, forming a wide-spreading, lateral taproot near the surface before penetrating deep into the soil (14). When it invades old or cleared fields it may become established in the shade of loblolly and shortleaf pines (10). Natural inoculation with mycorrhizae is highly beneficial to seedling establishment (3).

The average shear strength parallel to the grain exceeds that of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) and loblolly pine. Other structural features are similar to white fir (Abies concolor). It is low in strength, with a specific gravity of 0.443 (20).

The average fiber length is two-thirds of that of other southern pines but pulping characteristics are similar. It can be used as it occurs naturally for pulping operations, although use in large quantities for papermaking might require some operational changes to meet strength requirements (9).

Spruce pine responds to treatment with paraquat by producing lightwood, that is, wood soaked with oleoresin. Its response is similar to that of slash pine, and the increase in turpentine produced is proportionately greater than the increase in resin acids (12).

Spruce pine is planted to some extent for use as a Christmas tree. Productivity is about half that of the more popular Virginia pine, and two shearings per growing season are a necessity in southeastern Louisiana (7).

As a member of mixed pine-hardwood communities it provides some habitat and food for wildlife.

Vegetative Reproduction

provided by Silvics of North America
There is no published information on spruce pine vegetative reproduction. The species has been used experimentally as a rootstock for loblolly pine scions. Seed cone reproduction was greater when spruce pine was the rootstock than when loblolly pine was the rootstock (15).

Distribution

provided by Silvics of North America
Although spruce pine is considered a minor southern yellow pine species, it grows in a wide band across the South. It can be found on the low coastal areas from the valley of the lower Santee River in eastern South Carolina, south to the middle of northwest Florida, and west to the valley of Pearl River in eastern Louisiana (14). The natural range lies between latitudes 29° to 33° N. and longitudes 78° to 91° W. (2).

Pinus glabra ( German )

provided by wikipedia DE

Pinus glabra ist ein immergrüner Nadelbaum aus der Gattung der Kiefern (Pinus) mit meist 4 bis 8 Zentimeter langen, in Paaren angeordneten Nadeln und 4 bis 7 Zentimeter langen Samenzapfen. Das natürliche Verbreitungsgebiet liegt im Südosten der Vereinigten Staaten. Die Art ist nicht gefährdet. Sie ist wirtschaftlich nur von geringer Bedeutung und wird kaum gärtnerisch genutzt.

Beschreibung

Erscheinungsbild

Pinus glabra wächst als immergrüner, 30 bis 35 Meter hoher Baum. Der Stamm ist gerade und säulenförmig und erreicht einen Brusthöhendurchmesser von bis zu 100 Zentimeter. Das größte bekannte Exemplar wurde 2003 mit einer Höhe von 47,6 Metern, einem Kronendurchmesser von 21,4 Metern und einem Stammdurchmesser von 1,2 Metern gemessen. Die Stammborke ist dick, graubraun und unter Witterungseinfluss grau. Sie bleibt lange glatt und schuppig, zerbricht später in kleine, unregelmäßige, längliche Platten, die durch flache Furchen getrennt sind. Die Borke der Äste ist grau, glatt und blättert nicht ab. Die wenigen Hauptäste stehen waagrecht oder aufgerichtet und bilden bei älteren Bäumen eine gerundete oder flache Krone. Die benadelten Zweige sind dünn, rötlich bis purpurn braun, unbehaart und nach dem Verlust der Nadeln durch bleibende Pulvini rau. Junge Triebe sind anfangs bläulich überlaufen und später grau.[1][2]

Knospen und Nadeln

Die Knospen sind eiförmig, 5 bis 10 Millimeter lang, spitz und leicht harzig. Die als Knospenschuppen ausgebildeten Niederblätter sind rotbraun und schmal gerandet. Die Nadeln wachsen in Paaren in einer anfangs 5 bis 10 Millimeter langen sich später auf 3 bis 7 Millimeter verkürzenden Nadelscheide. Sie sind dunkelgrün, steif, gerade, um die Längsachse leicht verdreht, 4 bis 8 Zentimeter lang und 0,7 bis 1,2 Millimeter breit und bleiben zwei bis drei Jahre am Baum. Der Nadelrand ist fein gesägt, das Ende spitz. Auf allen Nadelseiten gibt es schmale Spaltöffnungslinien. Es werden zwei oder drei Harzkanäle gebildet.[1][2]

Zapfen und Samen

Die Pollenzapfen wachsen spiralig angeordnet in kleinen Gruppen. Sie sind kurz zylindrisch, 1 bis 1,5 Zentimeter lang, anfangs leicht purpurn und später braun. Die Samenzapfen wachsen einzeln oder in Paaren. Sie sind bis zu 1 Zentimeter lang gestielt, 4 bis 7, selten ab 3 oder bis 10 Zentimeter lang, geschlossen eiförmig-länglich und geöffnet eiförmig-zylindrisch, anfangs grün und bei Reife rotbraun. Sie reifen nach zwei Jahren[3], öffnen sich weit um die Samen abzugeben und bleiben danach drei bis vier Jahre am Baum, bevor sie zusammen mit dem Stiel abfallen. Die 60 bis 90 Samenschuppen sind breit keilförmig, dünn holzig und an der Basis mehr oder weniger biegsam. Die Apophyse ist leicht erhöht, quer gekielt, im Umriss unregelmäßig rhombisch oder hat einen gerundeten oberen Rand. Der Umbo ist abgesenkt oder stumpf, unbewehrt oder mit einem schwachen, abfallenden kleinen Stachel bewehrt. Die Samen sind verkehrt eiförmig bis beinahe deltoid, 5 bis 6 Millimeter lang und braun gefleckt. Der Samenflügel ist 12 bis 15 Millimeter lang.[4][2]

Chromosomenzahl

Die Chromosomenzahl beträgt 2n=24.[3]

Verbreitung, Ökologie und Gefährdung

 src=
Natürliches Verbreitungsgebiet

Das natürliche Verbreitungsgebiet von Pinus glabra liegt im Südosten der Vereinigten Staaten in Alabama, im Norden von Florida, in Georgia, im Osten von Louisiana, in Mississippi und South Carolina.[5][6]

Die Art wächst im warmgemäßigten Klima des Tieflands im Südosten der USA in Höhen von bis zu 150 Metern. Die Sommer im natürlichen Verbreitungsgebiet sind lang, heiß und feucht, die Winter mild. Das Verbreitungsgebiet wird der Winterhärtezone 8 zugeordnet mit mittleren jährlichen Minimaltemperaturen von −12,2° und −6,7° Celsius (10 bis 20° Fahrenheit). Die Bäume treten verstreut in Flusstälern, auf Flussbänken, auf Hügeln und in Sumpfgebieten auf saurem Untergrund auf. Junge Bäume wachsen meist im Schatten von Laubbäumen wie Vertretern der Magnolien (Magnolia), dem Tulpenbaum (Liriodendron tulipifera), dem Amerikanischen Amberbaum (Liquidambar styraciflua), Vertretern der Tupelobäume (Nyssa), der Hickory (Carya), der Buchen (Fagus) und der Eichen (Quercus), die sie jedoch mit der Zeit an Höhe übertreffen. Diese Schattenverträglichkeit ist bei Kiefern eher unüblich und nimmt mit der Wuchshöhe ab, daher sind oft Öffnungen im Kronendach notwendig, damit die Art die anderen Bäume übertreffen kann. Im Gegensatz zu anderen Kiefern ist Pinus glabra feueranfällig. Neben den Laubbäumen findet man sie auch zusammen mit Pinus elliottii, der Weihrauch-Kiefer (Pinus taeda) und der Echte Sumpfzypresse (Taxodium distichum).[5][2]

In der Roten Liste der IUCN wird Pinus glabra als nicht gefährdet („Lower Risk/least concern“) eingestuft. Es wird jedoch darauf hingewiesen, dass eine Neubeurteilung notwendig ist.[7]

Systematik und Forschungsgeschichte

Pinus glabra ist eine Art aus der Gattung der Kiefern (Pinus), in der sie der Untergattung Pinus, Sektion Trifoliae und Untersektion Australes zugeordnet ist. Sie wurde 1788 von Thomas Walter in der Flora Caroliniana erstmals wissenschaftlich beschrieben.[6] Der Gattungsname Pinus wurde schon von den Römern für mehrere Kiefernarten verwendet.[8] Das Artepitheton glabra bedeutet kahl und verweist auf die unbehaarten jungen Triebe.[1][2] Die Art hat keine Synonyme.[9]

Pinus glabra ähnelt in der Baumform der Weymouth-Kiefer (Pinus strobus), Triebe und Nadeln ähneln denen von Pinus echinata, doch sind die Nadeln dunkler und die Zapfenschuppen weniger stachelig.[3] Sie kann mit Pinus echinata Hybride bilden, natürliche Hybride sind jedoch nicht bekannt.[2]

Verwendung

Das Holz von Pinus glabra hat nur eine geringe Qualität, es ist brüchig und wenig dauerhaft. Zusammen mit dem verstreuten Auftreten verhindert das eine intensive Nutzung. Lokal kann sie, wenn sie zusammen mit anderen Kiefern wächst, eine gewisse wirtschaftliche Bedeutung als Holzlieferant haben. In manchen Gebieten wird sie als Christbaum verwendet, braucht jedoch häufigen Zuschnitt, um die gewünschte Form und Zweigdichte zu erreichen. Sie wird nur selten außerhalb von Botanischen Gärten und Arboreten gärtnerisch verwendet.[5]

Pinus glabra

provided by wikipedia EN

Pinus glabra, the spruce pine, is a tree found on the coastal plains of the southern United States, from southern South Carolina south to northern Florida and west to southern Louisiana.

Description

This pine is a straight-growing, medium-sized species, attaining heights of 20 to 40 metres (66 to 131 ft). The leaves are needle-like, in bundles of two, 5-to-8-centimetre-long (2.0 to 3.1 in), slender (1-millimetre-thick (0.039 in)), and glossy dark green. The small, slender cones are 4-to-6-centimetre-long (1.6 to 2.4 in), with weak prickles on the scales that are soon shed.[2]

Ecology

Pinus glabra differs markedly from most other pines in that it does not occur in largely pure pine forests, but is typically found as scattered trees in moist woodland habitats in mixed hardwood forest. To be able to compete successfully in such habitats, it has adapted to greater shade tolerance than most other pines.[3]

Pinus glabra er furutegund sem finnst á strandsléttum suðaustur Bandaríkjanna, frá suður Suður-Karólínu suður til norður Flórída og vestur til suður Louisiana. Þetta er meðastór og beinvaxin tegund, um 20–40 m.

Barrnálarnar eru tvær saman, 5–8 sm langar, grannar (1 mm þykkar), og gljáandi grænar. Litlir og grannir könglarnir eru 4–6 sm langir, með smáa gadda sem falla fljótt af.[2]

Pinus glabra er frábrugðin öðrum furum að því leyti að hún er ekki í hreinum furuskógum, fremur sem stök tré í röku skóglendi með lauftrjám. Til að geta það er hún aðlöguð að meira skuggaþoli en flestar aðrar furur.
