Abstract:

The data presented in this article indicate that in eastern white pine the fresh weight of the seed increases significantly in progressing from small to large cones and from the apical to the basal portion of the cone. While the results are clear cut for eastern white pine, the author warns against applying to other species without further corroboration.
