The results reveal that among 10 specie studied, there exist a large variation in wood density (0.51 to 1.09), and few wood chemical composition such % carbón (37.14 to 44.07), nitrogen (9.18 to 19.22), sulphur (31.45 to 33/82), lignin (15/28 to 24.35), hemicellulose (19.94 to 27.36%), and % cellulose (33.69 to 45.92). In general, though there was no clear relationship between wood density and other chemical composition of wood. It was observed that the species having moderate to high wood density contained >40% carbón, >30% sulphur and >40% cellulose and more or less 20% lignin. It seems that carbón, sulphur, cellulose and lignin content contribute to greater density. The wood fiber cell with wall lignification seems to be related to higher wood density.展开更多

The results show statistically significant differences among provenances in holocellulose, cellulose and 1% NaOH extractive contents. The largest coefficient of variation among the provenances was found in the 1% NaOH extractive content and the smallest in the holocellulose content. Variation of lignin content occurred within provenances. Correlations between chemi- cal compositions of wood and factors of local geography and meteorology were largely insignificant. The chemical composition of wood presented patterns of random variation. The correlation of 1% NaOH extractive content with holocellulose content was sig- nificant (r = -0.68). There was also significantly negative correlation (r = -0.62) between cellulose and lignin content. On the basis of a UPGMA cluster analysis, we identified three provenances of masson pine among the 12 studied, i.e., those of Wengan, Tongzi and Luodian with high cellulose contents, low levels of 1% NaOH extractive and moderate lignin contents, which we recommend as promising provenances for growing of pulp wood and the manufacture of paper in Guizhou Province.展开更多
