摘要
An assessment of damage and recovery of Acacia auriculiformis in a provenance trial at the Universiti Pertanian Malaysia was undertaken following an accidental surface fire. The results showed significant differences (P<0.05) between provenances in their ability to recover vegetatively after being affected by different levels of foliage scorch, with the 1 hr. S. Balamuk (16103) provenance being the best. The ability to resprout is possibly a result of the insulating properties of the bark, which protects the dormant buds present underneath it. The results provide a basis of selection of suitable provenances for future breeding for fire resistance and for fire management and silvicultural treatments of this species.
