FIRE EFFECTS
SPECIES: Pinus longaeva | Great Basin Bristlecone Pine 



IMMEDIATE FIRE EFFECT ON PLANT : 
Fire plays a minor role where bristlecones are found due to sparse
ground cover.  Although scattered dead and living trees show evidence of
fires, on dolomitic substrates, undergrowth is scarce with essentially
no sign of fires.  In these areas undergrowth consists of small shrubs,
cushion plants, and xerophytic bunchgrasses [5,7].
