Summary:

      In this study, wood and soil samples were taken from 33 black alder tree stands, which are native to the Eastern Black Sea Region, and from their different growth environments (Depending on the location and the altitude).

On samples of wood; tangential and radial diameters of vessels, number of vessels in 1 mm2 , lengths of vessel elements, ray width and height, numbers of ray in 1 mm, lengths of fibre, widths of fibre, widths of fibre lumen and thickness of fibre wall for measures and countings were determined.

      Samples of soil; physical (ratio of sand, silt and clay) and chemical (pH, organic matter, macro (Ca++, Mg++, Na+, K+) and micro (Fe++, Mn++) elements) features, type and available water capacities of soil were identified.

The differences of the wood anatomical features belonging to different Maple species were tried to evaluated regarding different data, which was taken from different growth environment by using variance analysis, duncan s test and correlation analysis.
