Figure 3.-,.-_,,,_A conceptual model of seasonal changes in pine resistance to southern pine beetle attack f<strong>or</strong> years that have soil<br />

water balance patterns similar to that of the long-term average. Resistance to the earliest attacking beetles is considered<br />

to be highly dependent on the potential flow of ole<strong>or</strong>esin at the wound site. (From L<strong>or</strong>io eta/. l,., 990).<br />

Figure 4.--Daily precipitation (vertical bars), calculated daily soil water st<strong>or</strong>age and cumulative daily water deficits (CDEF)<br />

tbr June-September, 1989, near Alexandria, LA. The two-level soil water st<strong>or</strong>age program of Zahner and Stage<br />

21)4 (11966)was used, _suming as sandy clay loam soil holding :20.32 cm of available water in the tree rooting zone.<br />

Dates of girdling, inoculations, and induced southern pine beetle attack are indicated. (M(_ified from Dunn and L<strong>or</strong>io<br />

1992).
