Radial variations in anatomical characteristics and wood properties were investigated in 23-year-old Shorea macrophylla (engkabang) trees planted in Sarawak, Malaysia. The efects of radial growth rates on anatomical characteristics and wood properties and the manner of xylem maturation were determi...
