  Oak - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Quercus (synonyms Lepidobalanus and Leucobalanus), the white oaks of Europe, Asia and North America.
Of the North American oaks, the Northern red oak Quercus rubra is the most prized of the red oak group for lumber, all of which is marketed as red oak regardless of the species of origin.
The wood of Pedunculate Oak Quercus robur and Sessile Oak Quercus petraea are extensively used in Europe.

Regionally varying mixtures of white oak (Quercus alba), chestnut oak (Quercus montana, = Quercus prinus), scarlet oak (Quercus coccinea), fl oak (Quercus velutina), northern red oak (Quercus rubra), southern red oak (Quercus falcata), and post oak (Quercus stellata) compose the overstories of these forests.
Bigtooth aspen (Populus grandidentata) and pines — including pitch pine (Pinus rigida) in the mountains, shortleaf and Virginia pines (Pinus echinata and Pinus virginiana) in the Piedmont, and loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) in the Coastal Plain — are common associates that usually indicate past disturbance.
Forests overwhelmingly dominated by chestnut oak (Quercus montana, = Quercus prinus) are widespread on sandstone or quartzite ridges in the mountains, but occur locally on monadnocks, foothills, and rocky or gravelly bluffs throughout the Piedmont and inner Coastal Plain.

These dominant chestnut oak stands represent an edaphic climax; the original climax type on the deeper and moister soils was largely a mixed mesophytic forest of white oak, chestnut oak, red oak, fl oak, fl gum, hickory, tulip poplar, white ash, and some beech.
Quercus and Carya were reproducing well in all Group I stands and Acer saccharum was reproducing well in only a few.
Quercus rubra, the only species important in both Group I and Group II, was abundant all across the Group II ordination, but was most important toward the Tilia end.

Concept: This alliance includes xeric oak forests strongly dominated by Quercus prinus or Quercus prinus with admixtures of Quercus coccinea and/or Quercus velutina, occurring in the southern and central Appalachians, Ridge and Valley, Cumberland Plateau, Piedmont, Interior Low Plateau, and possibly in the northern Appalachians.
In the Piedmont and Ridge and Valley, and in areas transitional to these provinces, Quercus stellata and Quercus marilandica may be canopy associates.
Quercus rubra, Quercus alba, Quercus velutina, Betula lenta, and Acer rubrum are common associates, with other less frequent trees including Quercus coccinea, Amelanchier arborea, Carya alba, Carya glabra, Pinus rigida, Pinus strobus, Quercus alba, Robinia pseudoacacia, and Sassafras albidum.

The role of fire in maintaining Quercus montana and Q.
Fire plays a major role in maintaining Quercus (oak) communities by creating favorable conditions for bird and mammal seed caching, reducing populations of insects which prey on oak seeds and seedlings, creating drier site conditions that allow more solar radiation to reach the soil, and reducing competition from fire-intolerant species.
Trends in the data indicate that populations of the rare plant Xerophyllum asphodeloides (turkey-beard) have increased, and both fuel loading and densities of fire-intolerant species have decreased.
