Application of multidimensional structural characterization to detect and describe moderate forest disturbance

Ecosphere, 2020
The study of vegetation community and structural change has been central to ecology for over a century, yet the ways in which disturbances reshape the physical structure of forest canopies remain relatively unknown.

Investigation on Cryptococcus fagi (L.) population in relation to silvicultural characteristics of oriental beech forests (case study: Safaroud, Ramsar) [PDF]

تحقیقات جنگل و صنوبر ایران, 2008
Cryptococcus fagi, the vector of Nectria sp., is one of the most important pests in beech forests which can cause beech bark disease. Because of its dispersion in the most beech forests of the northern Iran it should be taken under consideration. In this

Dry Cleaning and Post‐Cleaning Strategies in Food Processing Facilities: A Scoping Review

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Effective dry cleaning and post‐cleaning treatments are essential for maintaining food safety in dry‐food processing environments where water use must be minimized. This scoping review mapped and synthesized empirical research on minimal‐water cleaning methods applied to industrial surfaces, focusing on their efficacy against microbial and ...

Non‐Additive Interactions Between Multiple Mutualists and Host Plant Genotype Simultaneously Promote Increased Plant Growth and Pathogen Defence

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 7, Page 4134-4151, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding the impact of microbial interactions on plants is critical for maintaining healthy native ecosystems and sustainable agricultural practices. Despite the reality that genetically distinct plants host multiple microbes of large effect in the field, it remains unclear the extent to which host genotypes modulate non‐additive ...

Occurrence of disease symptoms and selected biotic factors connected with beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) dieback phenomenon in stands of The Magurski National Park

Acta Agrobotanica, 2012
The studies were carried out in 12 beech stands, growing on mountain fresh forest site in Magurski National Park. Stands differed in respect of exposition (northern and southern) and age - lower age classes (21-60 years old) and higher age classes (81 ...

Variation in Climate Shapes Seedling Recruitment Along Resource Gradients in a Northern Hardwood Forest

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 2, June 2026.
Seedling counts over 26 years revealed that wetter‐site temperate tree species struggle to recruit in warmer, drier years, whereas drier‐site species are more climate‐tolerant. Shadier forests buffered seedlings from heat and drought. Local soils and canopy cover strongly shaped outcomes, revealing considerable differences among species in climate ...

The distribution and severity of beech bark disease in the Catskill Mountains, N.Y. [PDF]

Canadian Journal of Forest Research, 2003
The distribution and severity of beech bark disease (BBD) in the Catskill Mountains of southeastern New York state, U.S.A., were measured between 1997 and 2000. Forest composition was measured using wedge prism surveys and fixed-area plot counts of canopy species.

Early Physiological and Transcriptomic Responses of Container‐Grown Blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L. ‘Sierra’) to Partial Substrate Replacement With Biochar

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Biochar has been widely investigated for its potential to improve substrate properties and plant performance, offering a potential partial replacement for peat in soilless cultivation amid declining peat availability. However, information on its short‐term physiological and molecular effects during the early establishment of container‐grown ...

Assessing the Role of Mixed Tree Species in Mitigating Ash Dieback: Insights From Greenhouse Experiments

Forest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Since its introduction, ash dieback has been a disease affecting ash (Fraxinus excelsior) stands across nearly their entire range. As the disease cannot be contained, various options for mitigating its severity have been explored in numerous studies.
