The greatest seedling survival was in spruce (82%), and the smallest one in Douglas-fir (63%). The total heights as well as well as annual height increments were the best in eastern white pine, followed by spruce, Douglas-fir, Austrian pine and at last Caucasian fir. According to the data in literature, growth of all studied species was much smaller than the growth of the same species on other localities. That means that on a site with relatively suitable conditions (mild slope, deep soil), these species have not realized completely ther genetically conditioned growth potential. 1991 RAZVOJ ŠUMSKIH KULTURA NEKIH VRSTA ČETINARA U OKOLINI ZAJEČARA DEVELOPMENT OF FOREST PLANTATIONS OF SOME CONIFEROUS SPECIES IN THE VICINITY OF ZAJEČAR Institut za šumarstvo
