Production of grand fir provenances in the Czech Republic
Original language description
Grand fir is one of the most important introduced tree species used in European forestry. Due to its high biomass production compared to other native tree species, it has become an interesting tree species for forestry. It can be used as a substitute tree to increase wood mass and biodiversity in forest stands. A series of 6 research plots have been established under the auspices of IUFRO to identify suitable provenances in our area. Two research plots were measured and evaluated in terms of dendrometric variables (DBH, tree height, stem volume) and morphological characteristics (stem shape, branch thickness, branch density, defoliation and health status). Results from the 40-year study plots indicate significant biomass production in the Vancouver Island (British Columbia) and coastal Washington State provenances. In terms of morphological traits, the results of the provenances are not significantly different and are rather balanced. Grand fir is one of the options for improving forest management conditions in both productive and non-productive forest functions.
