Morphological characteristics of Pinus radiata, Picea abies and Pinus sylvestris / Mohd Madzuan Shafaraz Mahmud

The morphological characteristic of fiber can determine the properties and behavior of wood species as a raw material in production line. The softwood species from Pinus radiata, Picea abies and Pinus sylvestris has been widely used in pallet and furniture industry. All of these three pine wood w...
