  Pine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Pines are coniferous trees of the genus Pinus, in the family Pinaceae.
Pines are mostly monoecious, having the male and female cones on the same tree, though a few species are sub-dioecious with individuals predominantly, but not wholly, single-sex.
Pines are commercially among the most important of species used for timber in temperate and tropical regions of the world.

 Scots Pine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Scots Pine (Pinus sylvestris; family Pinaceae) is a common tree ranging from Great Britain and Spain east to eastern Siberia and the Caucasus Mountains, and as far north as Lapland.
Scots Pine is the National tree of Scotland, and it formed much of the Caledonian Forest which once covered much of the Scottish Highlands.
Scots Pine has also been widely planted in New Zealand and much of the colder regions of North America; it is listed as an invasive species in some areas there, including Ontario and Wisconsin.

The European Black Pine Pinus nigra (generally called Black Pine in Europe), is a variable species of pine, occurring across southern Europe from Spain to the Crimea, and also in Asia Minor, Cyprus, and locally in the Atlas Mountains of northwest Africa.
In the United States, European Black Pine is of little importance as a timber species.

The boring of the fl turpentine beetles causes resin to flow, harden and produce the characteristic pitch tubes, which are usually seen on the lower 4 to 5 feet of the trunk.
Up until recently these two factors have been looked upon as primary cause for the death of Japanese fl pine which were at least 15 to 20 years of age and situated in the often stressful sites of the shore landscapes.
On the other hand, arborists have been able to reduce losses of the Japanese fl pine to the fl turpentine beetles with a combination of timely insecticide sprays and increased maintenance, including quick removal of dying trees and their stumps.

Pine sawfly larvae can be present any time after mid-May. The small larvae can only chew the edge from the needle, but as they grow, they consume more and more of the needle until eventually they are eating the entire needle down to the stub.
European pine sawfly larvae are grayish-green with 2 light stripes and 1 dark stripe on each side of the body.
Pine sawfly larvae feed only on old needles that emerged in previous seasons and not on the new needles that are emerging now.

 Eastern White Pine   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Pines need a deep root system, and five-needle pines especially need a deep pot to avoid uprooting by wind, due to their dense foliage.
For this reason, pines and other conifers should never be bare-rooted, unless steps are taken to re-introduce the fungus to the repotted plant, such as making a slurry (thin mud) of the old soil and pouring it over the newly potted soil.
The larvae of White Pine weevils feed on the sapwood of the leaders and this is devastating to the tree.

 White Pine Blister Rust on Currants and Gooseberries, HYG-3205-98
White pine blister rust is not a serious disease of currants and gooseberries; however, it is a very serious disease of white pines (Pinus strobus).
White pine blister rust causes significant damage in pine forests by forming cankers on the branches of white pines.
On white pine, the symptoms include dead branches, chlorotic foliage, branch girdling by lesions that exude resin or sticky yellowish fluid (spermagonia), cankers that are diamond-shaped to elliptic with a dead center surrounded by a band of yellowish-green infected bark, light yellow-orange aecia, and death of the tree.

 Subspecies
A sharp boundary between fl and white, or a relatively small and stable hybrid zone, on the other hand, shows that the two populations do not interbreed to any great extent and are indeed separate forms.
If the two groups do not interbreed because of something intrinsic to their genetic make-up (perhaps fl frogs do not find white frogs sexually attractive, or they breed at different times of year) then they are different species.
If, on the other hand, the two groups would interbreed freely provided only that some external barrier was removed (perhaps there is a waterfall too high for frogs to scale, or the populations are far distant from one another) then they are subspecies.
