• Proportion and quality of heartwood in Togolese teak (Tectona grandis L.f.) (2004, methodology): “…on the quality of teak wood from trees of different ages have indicated that juvenile wood (wood formed by a juvenile cambium) in teak, unlike many temperate species, is not inferior to mature wood in terms of specific gravity and strength (Bhat et al 2001, Sanwo 1986, 1987, Zobel at al 1989).”
• Wood properties of teak (Tectona grandis) from a mature unmanaged stand in East Timor (2011, background): “Several authors have also found that differences in mechanical and physical properties of juvenile wood and adult wood in teak were negligible.10 However, others have found higher MOE values in adult wood: Bhat et al.20 reported 12 695 and 15 746 N/mm2 in juvenile and mature wood in 63-year-old plan”
