Results of the Southwide Pine Seed Source Study through 1968-69

The Southwide Pine Seed Source Study was undertaken in 1951 to determine the degree to which inherent geographic variation in longleaf pine (Pinus palustris Mill.), slash pine (P. elliottii Engelm. var. elliottii), loblollypine(P. taeda L.), and shortleaf pine (P. echinata Mill.) is associated with geographic variation in climate and physiography. The information was intended for use in delimiting practical seed-collecting zones for these species.
