Monoterpenes in Scots pine in relation to browsing preference by moose (Alces alces L.).

Monoterpene hydrocarbon contents of needles in Scots pine ( L.) plants both damaged and untouched by the moose ( L.) were compared in the study. The material was collected in an 8-year-old plantation in Central Finland. Needle samples were taken from the topmost shoot whorl of the plants in the midd...
