Terpenoid Chemistry. IV. The Turpentine of Araucaria cunninghamii Ait
Australian Journal of Chemistry, 1960Contrary to Baker and Smith?s (1910) statement, the turpentine from Araucaria cunninghamii Ait. does not contain methanes or menthenes. Identified constituent* include n-nonane, n-undecane. (-)- and (±)-a-pinene, (-)-ß-pinene, myrcene, (±)-limonene, terpinolene, caryophyllene, and humulene.

Nitrogen in the Growth of Araucaria Cunninghamii Ait. Underplanted in Pinus Stands
Ecology, 1970Hoop pine (Araucaria cunninghamii Ait.), a nitrogen—sensitive rain—forest species can be grown without fertilizers as an underplanting to established stands of Pinus, on soils which will not support open plantings of pure hoop pine without fertilizing with nitrogen at the rate of 112 kg/ha per year.

Ten microsatellite loci are described in Araucaria cunninghamii, the first reported in the Araucariaceae. Eight were tested in sections Eutacta and Bunya, which diverged more than 200 MYA, and to the sister genus Agathis. Specific amplification products within the expected size range were obtained for six to eight loci in section Eutacta (depending on ...

Characterization of Hoop Pine (Araucaria Cunninghamii Sweet) for Ply and Particleboard Manufacture
Indian Journal of Forestry, 2014Studies for assessing the suitability of Hoop-pine (Araucaria cunninghamii) wood for plywood and particleboard manufacture. It was found that 1.5 mm thick smooth and figured veneer can be made and dried easily. Three-ply plywood were made using veneer of this species bonded with liquid urea formaldehyde glue of 50% solid content, extended with wheat ...

Climatic effects on the diameter growth of Araucaria cunninghamii Ait. ex D. Don.
Forest Ecology and Management, 1985Abstract Monthly diameter increment data from two Hoop pine sites in Queensland were related to variables derived directly from weather measurements or from calculations made with a growth model including a simple water balance simulation. Both sets of variables were analyzed using stepwise multiple regression, along with variables representing ...

Secondary metabolites of Araucaria cunninghamii Mudie from central Italy
Plant Biosystems - An International Journal Dealing with all Aspects of Plant BiologyIn this paper, the first complete phytochemical analysis of an Italian specimen of Araucaria cunninghamii Mudie led to the identification of six secondary metabolites, one of which was identified in the species for the first time. The chemophenetic and ethnobotanical evaluations of this specimen are widely discussed.

Zinc uptake by mycorrhizal and uninfected roots of Pinus radiata and Araucaria cunninghamii
Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 1974Abstract Uptake of zinc from solution by uninfected roots, ectomycorrhizas of Pinus radiata, and endomycorrhizas of Araucaria cunninyhamii occurred by a non-metabolic phase and by metabolically mediated absorption. The metabolically mediated absorption of Zn was 1.4–4.5 times greater for ectomycorrhizas than for uninfected roots and 2.6 times greater

Araucaria cunninghamii Seedling Response to Different Forms and Rates of 15N-Labelled Fertiliser
Pedosphere, 2006ABSTRACT Nitrogenous fertilisers are under consideration for promoting the growth of nursery-reared hoop pine (Araucaria cunninghamii Aiton ex A. Cunn) seedlings in the establishment phase of second rotation (2R) plantations. Using 15N-labelled fertilisers, we investigated the effect of different forms (ammonium sulphate, ammonium nitrate, potassium ...

Analysis of the Leaf Oil ofAraucaria cunninghamiiSweet. Grown In Nigeria
Journal of Essential Oil Research, 2005The yield and chemical composition of the oil obtained by hydrodistillation of the leaves of Araucaria cunninghamii Sweet., grown in the southwest region of Nigeria are reported. The analyses were made by GC and GC/MS. The oil was found to contain α-pinene (14.8%), terpinen-4-ol (14.7%), shyobunol (8.9%) and spathulenol (8.8%) as major constituents.
