Long-term sensitivity of ponderosa pine axial resin ducts to harvesting and prescribed burning

The article “Long-Term Sensitivity of Ponderosa Pine Axial Resin Ducts to Harvesting and Prescribed Burning” is based on experimental sites established in western Montana in 1992. The “findings show that by reducing stand density, forest restoration treatments induce the synthesis of resin ducts, which are key in mitigating vulnerability of ponderosa pine to mountain pine beetle (D. ponderosae) attacks, thus promoting forest resilience to multiple disturbances.”
