Abstract
Natural regeneration of beech in mixed stands of beech and fir was researched in the virgin forest Perucica, e.g. the basic elements of stand structure with special reference to beech regeneration characteristics, and the regeneration process in the conditions of broken stand canopy. The analysis included the stand development stages in he virgin forest based on the elements of structure, as well as the silvigenetic phases on a transect 10?100 m. The characteristics of beech regeneration (abundance, height, crown size, length of apical and lateral shoots) were measured on the selected regeneration areas (initial regeneration gaps). The silvigenetic phases on the transect and the interdependence of beech regeneration characteristics were assessed based on regeneration characteristics, ways of occurrence and spatial distribution of the young growth.
