Name: A.98
Reference: EcoArt 2002
Description: This alliance contains plantations of ~Pinus strobus$ that are maintained for the extraction of forest products. The canopy of these stands is usually dense, and the natural vascular species ground layer vegetation may be sparse to absent. Stands of ~Pinus strobus$ have been widely planted throughout the northeastern and upper midwestern United States. ~Pinus strobus$ is susceptible to a variety of diseases, including White Pine Blister Rust (~Cronartium ribicola$) and Southern Pine Beetle (~Dendroctonus frontalis$), which has limited some of its commercial use.
