Development Of Douglas-Fir Seed And Pollen Cones

Douglas-fir is a very important timber species on the West Coast of North America and, - as an introduced exotic, - in many parts of Europe. Its reproduction is of great importance to the forest manager. Since reproduction is solely dependent on seed production it is understandable that much effort has already been spent on the investigation of flower bud initiation and subsequent development. In this report we intend to discuss the initiation and development of the micro- and mega- sporangiate strobili of Douglas-fir.
