Rameal sequences of four representative L2 logs (see Table 3 for quantitative data). Symbols are the following. Vertical stem pith (black); oblique sequential knots laid down by sequential branches (green); transversal-horizontal traces of suppressed buds that are persistent axillary buds (red); transversal-horizontal traces of suppressed buds of secondary origin (pink), located at the base of either a suppressed bud of primary origin, a sequential branch or an epicormic shoot; transversal-horizontal knots laid down by epicormic shoots (blue); clusters of suppressed buds (less than 6) are identified on the stem surface by green circles, while picots are identified on the stem surface by yellow discs. Tree numbers are provided below the virtual logs
