Table 3 Ratio of tracheids with unusually large MFA in the ring number 22 among tree-density-zoning symbols

Symbol	Density (trees/ha)	Age	n	≥ 30°	≥ 35°
Symbol	Density (trees/ha)	Age	n	(%)
D	4823	38	5	24 (8)^a	10 (6)^a
E	3349	38	5	38 (11)^a	15 (7)^a
G	1615	38	5	33 (14)^a	12 (10)^a
H	1122	38	5	33 (14)^a	11 (4)^a
J	541	38	5	31 (12)^a	11 (5)^a

The values represent averages in four trees; values in parentheses indicate standard deviations. Total number of measured trachieds were one hundred twenty in each tree (Fig. 9). Different characters show significant differences among density-zoning symbols (p < 0.05)
