FIRE EFFECTS
SPECIES: Asimina triloba | Pawpaw 



IMMEDIATE FIRE EFFECT ON PLANT : 



DISCUSSION AND QUALIFICATION OF FIRE EFFECT : 
NO-ENTRY


PLANT RESPONSE TO FIRE : 
Pawpaw cover is probably reduced by fire.  In a study to determine the
effects of repeated prescribed fires on vegetation in the
prairie-woodland transition zone, fires were conducted for 3 consecutive
years.  The vegetation was monitored for almost 20 years after the last
fire was conducted.  Pawpaw stems increased in number only in the
absence of fire, and only after 13 years had passed since the last fire [1].


DISCUSSION AND QUALIFICATION OF PLANT RESPONSE : 
NO-ENTRY


FIRE MANAGEMENT CONSIDERATIONS :
