Subject We investigated the importance of ray tissue for the strength of living beech trees (Fagus sylvatica L.). Observations on trees grown under controlled radial tensile loads and technological tests on transverse strengths as well as comparisons among radially stressed parts of trees in nature with control samples indicate that rays are a mechanically functional and adaptive tissue in tl-le transverse plane of living trees.
