Best Answer

Pioneer trees (i.e., trees that first colonize a piece of unforested land) are important to climax trees (i.e., trees that make up a mature and self-sustaining forest) because climax trees require more fertile conditions (nutrients and moisture in the ground) than are typically found outside a forest, and pioneer trees grow in less fertile soil and help to create those conditions.
