Species Adapted for Planting Arizona Pinyon-Juniper Woodland
Lavin F and Johnsen TN. 1977. Species Adapted for Planting Arizona Pinyon-Juniper Woodland. Journal of Range Management. 30(6):410-415
Species adaptation trials were observed over periods varying from 21 to 28 years at ten Arizona pinyon-juniper sites. Fifty-nine species and varieties developing fair to excellent stands and persisting five or more years were considered adapted to one or more of the sites. Fifty-four of these were still present at the last rating. Thirty have reproduced themselves and are spreading naturally. Sites are described and classified to help identify planting potential and facilitate wide application of results. Guidelines are suggested for shortening the time period needed to evaluate species adaption.
