This dissertation thesis deals with two aspects of Eastern white pine. The first objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of the amount of solar radiation on the parameters of natural regenerated Eastern white pine individuals -- density, height, stem diameter, height increment and crown morphological parameters. The second objective of this work was to compare the production potential (stem volume, stock) of Eastern white pine and native Scots pine. For both purposes were selected forests stands with appropriate representation of Eastern white pine in Hradec Králové municipal forests. For the first objective study showed that the amount of light is a key factor in relation to Eastern white pine regeneration. Increasing amount of light significantly affects both density and growth parameters (height, stem diameter, height increment) of natural regenerated individuals. Effect of light on crown morphological parameters has not been proved. For the second objective evaluation of data showed that same old Eastern white pine in the same habitat reaches significantly greater stem volume than Scots pine in the order of several tens of percent, depending on the age of forests stand.
