Resumo: Effects of pruning on growth ring thickness and density were studied in young trees of Pinus taeda L. A reduction in growth ring thickness and an increase in density were found only in the first year after the most severe pruning, in which branches were removed up to 3,0 m height. Pruning had no effect on wood density in the following years. On the other hand, there was a significant increase in ring thickness after the initial reduction in the first year, suggesting the existence of a negative trophic balance in the lower branches. If properly applied, pruning can improve both growth process and wood quality of the main stem.

Nos anéis de crescimento formados no primeiro ano após a aplicação dos tratamentos, observou-se um aumento nas respectivas densidades apenas para o tratamento mais severo, correspondente à remoção dos ramos até a altura de 3,0 m, aos quatro anos de idade. Este efeito não foi observado nos anos subsequentes. Com relação à espessura dos anéis, constatou-se uma redução inicial no primeiro ano após a desrama, também apenas para o tratamento mais severo. Ambos os tratamentos em que se praticou a desrama determinaram um acréscimo significativo na espessura dos anéis, nos terceiro e quarto anos subseqüentes, sugerindo um balanço trófico negativo dos ramos inferiores da copa naquele período. Assim, se aplicada adequadamente, a desrama pode contribuir para o crescimento do fuste, além de melhorar a qualidade da madeiraEmbrapa Florestas2003-06-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb/index.php/pfb/article/view/1617Pesquisa Florestal Brasileira; n. 46 (2003): jan./jun.; 47-56Pesquisa Florestal Brasileira; No. 46 (2003): jan./jun.; 47-561983-26051809-3647reponame:Pesquisa Florestal Brasileira (Online)instname:Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)instacron:EMBRAPAporhttps://pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb/index.php/pfb/article/view/1617/625Pereira, José Carlos DuarteAhrens, Sérgioinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2018-03-22T17:49:20Zoai:pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb:article/1617Revistahttps://pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb/index.php/pfb/PUBhttps://pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb/index.php/pfb/oaipfb@embrapa.br || revista.pfb@gmail.com || patricia.mattos@embrapa.br1983-26051809-3647opendoar:2018-03-22T17:49:20Pesquisa Florestal Brasileira (Online) - Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)false
