Finding List and Guide to Tllc Secrest Arboretum SPECIAL CIRCULAR 91 MAY 1960 REV ISED Finding List and Guide to tllc Secrest Arboretum Wood Utilization Research Laboratory and Secrest Arboretum Headquarters Effective July 1, 1965, the name of the Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station was changed to: 0 Ohio Agricu ltura I Research and Development Center, ')ll Wooster, Ohio • This page intentionally blank. • GUIBE TO THE SECREST ARBORETUM OHIO AGRICULTURAL EXPERJMENT STATION WOOSTER, OHIO '/ By John E. Aughanbaugh, Harry R. Muckley, and Oliver D. Diller* In May 1950 the forest and ornamental plantings at the Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station were dedicated as the Secrest Arboretum in memory of Edmund Secrest, the father of forestry in Ohio. Since 19o8 these plantings have been expanded to include well over 600 species and varieties of trees and shrubs from many parts of the world. It is the purpose of this publication to serve as a finding list and guide to the Arboretum. The Purpose of the Arboretum One purpose of the Arboretum is to _determine the species and varieties of trees adapted for ornamental, windbreak, and shelterbelt uses in 6hio. There are many varieties of spruces, firs, yews, arborvitae, and other coniferous trees and shrubs growing here for observation by people interested in landscaping and the planting of shelterbelts. Among the more recent additions to the Arboretum is a collection of over 60 varieties of flowering crabapples, 57 selections of hollies and a plot of Chinese dawnredwood. The second purpose of the Arboretum is to determine the spe?ies of trees best adapted for reforestation in Ohio and to determine the silvicultural requirements that will obtain best results in growth and maturity. In addition to taking measurements on the comparative growth and yield of many different tree species, studies are being conducted on the best uses which can be made of products harvested. The new Wood Utilization Research Laboratory which was dedicated in October 1958 is the field headquarters for the Arboretum. Other phases of forest research which are conducted in the Arboretum are in the fields of forest tree improvement, forest tree physiology, soils, and silviculture. It is expected that in future years many additional forest and ornamental plantings " containing new hybrids and superior selections will be established in the Arboretum. Compartment Map and Key List The Secrest Arboretum has been subdivided into 12 compartments and where practical, a key list is given for each plot. The key list is numerical within each compartment. The map on the following page may be used as an orientation map while the individual COl1l!Jartments show the location of the plots. The index is an alphabetical cross reference list of the plants indicated in the various compartments and plots. *Assistant Professor, Agricultural Technician, and Chairman, respectively, Department of Forestry. · I I R'OAD -< ~ i SECREST ARBORETUM KEY· MAP TO COMPARTMENTS soo· 1000' 4 WOODY PLANTS IN COMPARTMETu'T A *l.

  • Thuja Plicata Has Many Traditional Uses, from the Manufacture of Rope to Waterproof Hats, Nappies and Other Kinds of Clothing
    photograph © Daniel Mosquin Culturally modified tree. The bark of Thuja plicata has many traditional uses, from the manufacture of rope to waterproof hats, nappies and other kinds of clothing. Careful, modest, bark stripping has little effect on the health or longevity of trees. (see pages 24 to 35) photograph © Douglas Justice 24 Tree of the Year : Thuja plicata Donn ex D. Don In this year’s Tree of the Year article DOUGLAS JUSTICE writes an account of the western red-cedar or giant arborvitae (tree of life), a species of conifers that, for centuries has been central to the lives of people of the Northwest Coast of America. “In a small clearing in the forest, a young woman is in labour. Two women companions urge her to pull hard on the cedar bark rope tied to a nearby tree. The baby, born onto a newly made cedar bark mat, cries its arrival into the Northwest Coast world. Its cradle of firmly woven cedar root, with a mattress and covering of soft-shredded cedar bark, is ready. The young woman’s husband and his uncle are on the sea in a canoe carved from a single red-cedar log and are using paddles made from knot-free yellow cedar. When they reach the fishing ground that belongs to their family, the men set out a net of cedar bark twine weighted along one edge by stones lashed to it with strong, flexible cedar withes. Cedar wood floats support the net’s upper edge.

  • Dying Cedar Hedges —What Is the Cause?
    Points covered in this factsheet Symptoms Planting problems Physiological effects Environmental, Soil and Climate factors Insect, Disease and Vertebrate agents Dying Cedar Hedges —What Is The Cause? Attractive and normally trouble free, cedar trees can be great additions to the landscape. Dieback of cedar hedging in the landscape is a common prob- lem. In most cases, it is not possible to pinpoint one single cause. Death is usually the result of a combination of envi- ronmental stresses, soil factors and problems originating at planting. Disease, insect or animal injury is a less frequent cause. Identifying The Host Certain species of cedar are susceptible to certain problems, so identifying the host plant can help to identify the cause and whether a symptom is an issue of concern or is normal for that plant. The most common columnar hedging cedars are Thuja plicata (Western Red Cedar - native to the West Coast) and Thuja occidentalis (American Arborvitae or Eastern White ICULTURE, PLANT HEALTH UNIT Cedar). Both species are often called arborvitae. Common varieties of Western Red ce- dar are ‘Emerald Giant’, ‘Excelsa’ and Atrovirens’. ‘Smaragd’ and ‘Pyramidalis’ are com- mon varieties of Eastern White cedar hedging. Species of Cupressus (Cypress), Chamaecyparis nootkatensis (Yellow Cedar or False Cypress) and Chamaecyparis law- soniana (Port Orford Cedar or lawsom Cypress) are also used in hedging. Symptoms The pattern of symptom development/distribution can provide a clue to whether the prob- lem is biotic (infectious) or abiotic (non-infectious). Trees often die out in a group, in one section of the hedge, or at random throughout the hedge.

  • Behavioral Responses of American Black Bears to Reduced Natural Foods: Home Range Size and Seasonal Migrations
    BEHAVIORAL RESPONSES OF AMERICAN BLACK BEARS TO REDUCED NATURAL FOODS: HOME RANGE SIZE AND SEASONAL MIGRATIONS Spencer J. Rettler1, David L. Garshelis, Andrew N. Tri, John Fieberg1, Mark A. Ditmer2 and James Forester1 SUMMARY OF FINDINGS American black bears (Ursus americanus) in the Chippewa National Forest demonstrated appreciable fat reserves and stable reproduction despite a substantial decline in natural food availability over a 30-year period. Here we investigated potential strategies that bears may have employed to adapt to this reduction in food. We hypothesized that bears increased their home range sizes to encompass more food and/or increased the frequency, duration and distance of large seasonal migrations to seek out more abundant food resources. We estimated home range sizes using both Minimum Convex Polygon and Kernel Density Estimate approaches and developed a method to identify seasonal migrations. Male home range sizes in the 2010s were approximately twice the size of those in the 1980s; whereas, female home ranges tripled in size from the 1980s to the 2010s. We found little difference in migration patterns with only slight changes to duration. Our results supported our hypothesis that home range size increased in response to declining foods, which may explain why body condition and reproduction has not changed. However, these increased movements, in conjunction with bears potentially consuming more human-related foods in the fall, may alter harvest vulnerability, and should be considered when managing the bear hunt. INTRODUCTION As a large generalist omnivore, American black bears (Ursus americanus; henceforth black bear or bear) demonstrate exceptional plasticity in response to changes in food availability.

  • Morphology and Morphogenesis of the Seed Cones of the Cupressaceae - Part II Cupressoideae
    1 2 Bull. CCP 4 (2): 51-78. (10.2015) A. Jagel & V.M. Dörken Morphology and morphogenesis of the seed cones of the Cupressaceae - part II Cupressoideae Summary The cone morphology of the Cupressoideae genera Calocedrus, Thuja, Thujopsis, Chamaecyparis, Fokienia, Platycladus, Microbiota, Tetraclinis, Cupressus and Juniperus are presented in young stages, at pollination time as well as at maturity. Typical cone diagrams were drawn for each genus. In contrast to the taxodiaceous Cupressaceae, in Cupressoideae outgrowths of the seed-scale do not exist; the seed scale is completely reduced to the ovules, inserted in the axil of the cone scale. The cone scale represents the bract scale and is not a bract- /seed scale complex as is often postulated. Especially within the strongly derived groups of the Cupressoideae an increased number of ovules and the appearance of more than one row of ovules occurs. The ovules in a row develop centripetally. Each row represents one of ascending accessory shoots. Within a cone the ovules develop from proximal to distal. Within the Cupressoideae a distinct tendency can be observed shifting the fertile zone in distal parts of the cone by reducing sterile elements. In some of the most derived taxa the ovules are no longer (only) inserted axillary, but (additionally) terminal at the end of the cone axis or they alternate to the terminal cone scales (Microbiota, Tetraclinis, Juniperus). Such non-axillary ovules could be regarded as derived from axillary ones (Microbiota) or they develop directly from the apical meristem and represent elements of a terminal short-shoot (Tetraclinis, Juniperus).

Keeping in view, genetic divergence studies in Department of Biotechnology, indigenous crab apple biotypes (Malus baccata var. Himaliaca) maintained at two field gene banks of Dr YS Parmar University of Himachal Pradesh state of India was carried out by using the RAPD molecular markers. A total of 119 Horticulture and Forestry, decamer primers were initially screened to check these biotypes during the genotypic screening out of Nauni, Solan, Himachal which 94 showed clear and scorable bands. In samples collected from IARI Regional Station, Shimla, Pradesh, India these primers revealed 67.47% of polymorphism and PIC value ranged between 0.497 to 0.867, whereas average number of alleles per primer was 4.84. Jaccard’s similarity coefficient ranged from 0.44 to 0.65 which showed the divergence among the biotypes. Comparatively low percentage polymorphism (53.37%) was observed in seven biotypes maintained at NBPGR, Regional Station, Shimla, while almost similar PIC value range 0.47-0.87 was obtained as in case of former.
