A Case for Improving the Effieciency of Seed Extraction from Black Spruce (Picea mariana (Mill) B. S. P. ) Cones

Viable seed was obtained from cones of black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) B.S.P.) through 16 extraction cycles. Although seed quality declined somewhat in later cycles, total yields were well above those commonly reported. Seed yields could be improved appreciably if more efficient extraction processes were developed. Tree Planters' Notes 37(4) : 7-11;
