Description

To study the relationship between thinning intensity and regeneration by sprouts of main woody species in secondary forest of Pine mass-dieback, regeneration of sprouts occurring in 3 years following the cut under 3 different thinning intensity, were investigated for 5 woody species, Ilex pedunculosa, Lyonia oualifolia, Eurya japonica, Rhododendron reticulatum and Abelia serrata. Patterns of the number and elongation of sprouts by age were observed as a convex pattern with a peak in tree species, I. pedunculosa and L. oualifolia, whereas those were observed as a constant pattern in shrub species, E. japonica and R. reticulatum. The number and elongation of sprouts showed significant differences in I. pedunculosa and L. oualifolia at a clear-cut area. According to the results, when the cutting age is about 30 years, I. pedunculosa and L. oualifolia tend to dominate. The clear-cutting seems to increase the relative dominance ratio in I. pedunculosa and L.ovalifolia, which are originated from sprouts.
