Sugar pine ( Pinus lambertiana ), Douglas-fir, and California black oak ( Quercus kelloggii ) were used slightly more than their availability, but this was not considered significant, since 95 % confidence intervals overlapped with use in accordance with availability.

Soil characteristics strongly influence the architecture of taproots ; for example, deep rich soils favor the development of vertical taproots in many oak species such as Quercus kelloggii, while clay soils promote the growth of multiple taproots.

Redwood / California bay ( Umbellularia californica ), ponderosa pine / hardwood, and live oak-bigcone Douglas-fir ( Quercus chrysolepis or Q. agrifolia-Pseudotsuga macrocarpa ) are hardwood-mixed coniferous forests used by California Spotted Owls.

In Douglas-fir / hardwoods, mixed-conifer, and Oregon white oak ( Quercus garryana ) forests of northwestern California, average annual Northern Spotted owl reproductive output ranged from 0. 150 to 0. 810 fledged young / pair.

A review states that California Spotted Owl's use of nest trees seemed related to availability, with Douglas-fir used most often in northern Sierra Nevada coniferous forests, and bigcone Douglas-fir, Jeffrey pine, and live oak ( Quercus chrysolepis and / or Q. agrifolia ) used primarily in southern California coniferous forests.

In the southern U. S., the plant seems to show a preference of growth on Southern Live Oak ( Quercus virginiana ) or Bald Cypress ( Taxodium distichum ) because of these trees ' high rates of foliar mineral leaching ( calcium, magnesium, potassium, and phosphorus ) providing an abundant supply of nutrients to the plant, but it can also colonize other tree species such as Sweetgum ( Liquidambar styraciflua ), crape-myrtles ( Lagerstroemia spp.
