Pinus genus is characterized by woody cones able to open even after a forest fire, which also protect seeds from damages during the fire. The aim of the present study is to analyze the effect of high temperatures on pine cones opening as well as the releasing and viability of the seeds of P. pinaster and P. radiata, throughout a selection of different combinations of temperatures and time exposures. During a forest fire, extremely high temperatures have a very low remanence. 26 different combinations were selected, beginning by 500 °C/1 min and then gradually increasing time exposure whereas the temperature, on the opposite, was set lower and lower. This process was applied up to combinations of relatively low temperatures and long...
