Abstract
A potential indirect technique for determining fine root biomass and production is reported for Douglas-fir. Present data show a direct correlation between the starch content of a 1 cm wide band of living bark at breast height per hectare and fine root biomass per hectare (r2 = 0.85).Keywords
