| description | Wood quality, namely wood structure, physical and mechanical
properties, and other qualities of woodworking, are greatly influenced by
the proportion, type, morphology, arrangement, distribution, and specific
gravity of xylem constituent cells. The present study was conducted to
determine the radial variation pattern of wood axial elements in Acacia
mangium Willd. In addition, the suitability of serial cross sectioning
technique for wood fibre length determination in Shorea leprosula Miq. was
also investigated.
In the first part of the study, the radial variation pattern in the
length of wood fibre and vessel element in Acacia mangium was investigated
to reveal the difference in the pattern between dominant and suppressed trees. The correlation between the radial variation of wood fibre length and
monthly climatic factors (average temperature and precipitation) in the
early stage of tree growth was established. |
