Abstract
In an even-aged 18-year-old natural beech regeneration, the height gro wth of young plants has been analysed on the main stem under 3 dayligh t intensities: full-light, half-light and shade. The structure showed 3, 2 and 1 layer(s) respectively under these light conditions. The ann ual classification of seedlings according to their total height over a n 18-year period was found to be influenced by light conditions and vi gour at 18 years old, but not by the structure of the regeneration.
