The results of his work, mainly on timber-sale areas in the Santa Fe National Forest of New Mexico, seemed to indicate that the decay was of minor consequence in blackjacks. In 1935 Pearson and Marsh (40) pointed out that the high percentage of cull from rot in ponderosa pine could be attributed to the general overmaturity of the forests, and that in future generations the percentage of heart-rot should decrease because few trees would attain an age of more than 200 years before cutting. At the same time, however, these authors cautioned that second-growth stands might be more subject to attack by decay fungi than old growth because of their more limby character.
