Effect of phenol-formaldehyde (PF) resin oligomer size on the decay resistance of beech wood

open access: yes, 2020
Treating wood with water-soluble resins is a well-known and effective method to improve the durability of wood. However, there has been no systematic work to date related to the influence of average molecular size of phenol-formaldehyde (PF) resin on the

Effects of restoration practices on biodiversity in temperate and boreal forests

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Several restoration practices are used to mitigate and compensate for the negative effects of large‐scale forestry on biodiversity in temperate and boreal forests. A comprehensive synthesis of the benefits of these practices across taxa is missing. We conducted a systematic review and meta‐analysis on this topic.

Using Deciduous Branch Wood and Conifer Spindle Wood to Manufacture Panels with Transverse Structure

open access: yesBioResources, 2022
The increasing demand on the wood market makes it necessary to use all secondary resources, including the wood branches and spindles. The properties of deciduous branches and softwood spindles were evaluated in order to create wood panels, highlighting ...

Protecting temperate old‐growth forests as biotic microrefugia amid climate change

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Old‐growth forests are essential biotic microrefugia, providing high carbon storage, biodiversity, and stable microclimates that protect understorey species from climatic extremes. Their resilience to drought and disturbance makes them more effective than younger forests, yet habitat loss, fragmentation, and climate change increasingly threaten these ...

Landscape and Geography Determine Saproxylic Beetle Captures in Pheromone‐Baited Traps

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Pheromone‐baited traps at 39 forest sites across southern Sweden captured 58 saproxylic beetle species, including seven Red‐listed taxa. The effect of surrounding forest cover on beetle abundance may depend on latitude and longitude: positive effects were strongest in warmer southern and eastern regions but weakened or reversed in colder northwestern ...

Exploiting Native Biodiversity for Invasive Species Management: The Case of Exorista larvarum as a Natural Enemy of the Invasive Box Tree Moth Cydalima perspectalis

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
The investigations evaluated the performance of the native parasitoid Exorista larvarum (L.) on last instar Cydalima perspectalis (Walker) larvae, using the factitious host Galleria mellonella (L.) as a control. Laboratory bioassays were conducted using no‐choice and choice (1:1 and 5:5) experimental designs.
