For its timber, the pine species is regarded as the most commercially important tree in the Southeastern U.S. [5] [6] [7] The common name loblolly is given because the pine species is found mostly in lowlands and swampy areas. [8] Loblolly pine is the first among over 100 species of Pinus to have its complete genome sequenced. As of March 2014 ...

The Lost Pines Forest is a 13-mile (21 km) belt of loblolly pines (Pinus taeda) in the U.S. state of Texas, near the town of Bastrop.The stand of pines is unique in Texas because it is a disjunct population of trees that is more than 100 miles (160 km) separated from, and yet closely genetically related to, the vast expanse of pine trees of the Piney Woods region that covers parts of Texas ...

Pond Pine (Type 98) is the typical vegetation of wet flats and some Carolina Bays in South Carolina. Loblolly-bay, pond pine, sweetbay, and redbay are the tree species present, and they rarely form a closed canopy. The thick, shrub layer is composed of fetterbush, greenbrier vines, inkberry, and loblolly-bay.

Shortleaf pine typically respond well to prescribed fire. [12] With frequent fire, the species can occur in savanna environments, with a very diverse understory and prime habitat for the red-cockaded woodpecker. [13] The tree frequently hybridizes naturally with loblolly pine and pitch pine where their ranges intersect.
