epicormic

Dominant trees are less likely to produce epicormic branches than those in the lower crown classes.

Epicormic shoots can be used in mass propagation of oak trees.

The significance of epicormic shoot production to crown development and maintenance is discussed.

These forestry techniques cannot be used on species which do not possess strong epicormic growth abilities.

The epicormic branching pattern has been observed to six iterations.

Epicormic shoots are a sign that the tree is trying to recover from stress, often using its last reserves of energy.

The trunk is clean, straight and cylindrical, often bearing epicormic branches.

Hard pruning will create a mass of epicormic shoots or can cause dieback.

The epicormic buds around the baselose the capacity to regenerate.

New shoots (epicormic branches) often occur along the trunk.

In the case of the eucalypts, the dead leaves are soon replaced by new epicormic shoots, which also yellow and die.

Other trees have epicormic sprouts, suckers, or dead branches.

Within the bark are epicormic buds which sprout new growth after bushfire.

Generally, epicormic branching is not a problem with hickory species, but a few branches do occur.

Once the epicormic new growth has taken over, and the understorey regenerates, the Valley floor seems likely to come back fairly quickly.

Additionally, they form coppices, also known as epicormic shoots, which allow their perseverance over time.

Removing all large buds increased epicormic shoot production, but did not affect crown parameters.

Hickories strongly resist ice damage and seldom develop epicormic branches.

Epicormic sprouts, suckers, and dead branches can be ignored.

However, some 40% of the crown foliage is epicormic growth which indicates that the tree was under some stress.

Crown release had no effect on 8-year height growth, 3-year epicormic branching, or bole quality.

Older trees sometimes grow epicormic shoots directly from their trunks after storm or fire damage.

Epicormic shoots formed with varying frequencies in all species except K. latifolia.

Nevertheless, considerable variation existed among trees, ranging from 3 to 34 epicormic shoots per branch sample.
