Abstract: In this paper, the growth dynamics of first generation and regeneration of Pinus massoniana is compared by tree ring analysis.The results show that the first generation can growwell on poor barren land.The growth peak is at 35-40 years.The individuals of regeneration degenerated seriously, which implies that continuous plantation of poly-generationis not a reasonable management, and stand-remaking should be carried out when the age of forest is about 35 years old.

Key words: Pinus massoniana, First generation, Regeneration, Growth dynamics
