Author Description

This study describes first-year growth of containerized western redcedar seedlings, including growth rates for several morphological characters, apical transitions in leaf initiation, and stomatal distribution on leaf and cotyledon surfaces. One-year-old container grown seedlings of western redcedar were subjected to short (8 h) day stress and/or moisture stress and their response compared to that of untreated seedlings. The treatments were applied at various times during the growing season and lasted 2 and 4 weeks.
