THE COMPOSITION OF TOTAL LIPID FRACTIONS AND FATTY ACIDS IN BUDS OF BIRCH SPECIES DURING BUD BREAK
In the process of bud break in downy birch Betula pubescens Ehrh., silver birch Betula pendula Roth, and Karelian birch Betula pendula var. carelica Merckl., total lipid (TL) content in buds varied within 27–45 % of absolute dry weight (a. d. w.).

The influence of air temperature and relative humidity on dynamics of water potential in Betula pendula (Betulaceae) trees [PDF]
Linear multiple models were developed to describe diurnal and seasonal dynamics of water potential (Ψ) of the foliated shoots in the plants of Betula genus related to air temperature and relative humidity in the middle taiga (southern Karelia).

Does shade improve light interception efficiency? A comparison among seedlings from shade-tolerant and -intolerant temperate deciduous tree species [PDF]
• Here, we tested two hypotheses: shading increases light interception efficiency (LIE) of broadleaved tree seedlings, and shade-tolerant species exhibit larger LIEs than do shade-intolerant ones.
