Characterization of the Volatile Compounds of the Hardwood Portion of Betula papyrifera Marshall From Quebec, Canada. [PDF]
The volatile profile of Betula papyrifera hardwood has been characterized using both hydrodistillation and HS‐SPME coupled with GC‐MS/FID. Hydrodistillation yields a fatty acid‐rich essential oil, while HS‐SPME reveals a broader range of low‐molecular‐weight volatiles, including aromatics and terpenoids.

Elevated atmospheric CO2 and humidity delay leaf fall in Betula pendula, but not in Alnus glutinosa or Populus tremula × tremuloides [PDF]
Context: Anthropogenic activity has increased the level of atmospheric CO2, which is driving an increase of global temperatures and associated changes in precipitation patterns.

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.

Conservation status of species used in the UK herbal medicine industry
Given the ongoing biodiversity crisis, sustainable use and management of medicinal plants is critical. We assessed the conservation status, threats and conservation actions of 298 species sold by UK suppliers to medical herbalists. We found that most species used are unevaluated, representing a gap in conservation knowledge, and of those with ...

Species diversity of macrofungi on fallows in the buffer zones of the landscape parks in Łódzkie province [PDF]
This study presents the species structure of macrofungi in different plant communities formed on fallows as a result of secondary succession. The mycological observations were carried out in 2012 and 2013 in the buffer zones of all landscape parks in the

Isozymes in Differentiating Shoot Bud Cultures of Betula pendula Roth.
Summary Shoot buds of birch cultured in vitro produced callus and differentiated plantlets. On defined White’s medium supplemented with 2 mg .1-1 each of GAl, IAA, and BAP, the explants started callusing in 2 weeks and within 4 weeks differentiated roots. After 6 weeks, the callus produced shoot buds.

We evaluated single‐ and multi‐sensor UAV approaches for classifying tree species and standing dead trees in boreal forests, focusing on key biodiversity indicators such as European aspen. Using spectral and structural features extracted from RGB, multispectral (MSP), and LiDAR point clouds for 1,205 field‐measured trees, we compared classification ...

Light-modulation of bark photosynthesis in birch (Betula pendula Roth.)
Bark photosynthesis has been shown to be an effective mechanism for stem-internal refixation of respiratory CO . In young birch trees (Betula pendula Roth.) this function is clearly modulated by the prevailing light intensity regime.

In vitro modelling of salinity stress for the selection of stress-tolerant birch lines [PDF]
This paper examines the salinity stress effect in vitro culture of microshoots of 10 birch clones: Betula pendula L., B. pendula Roth var. carelica (Mercklin) Hämet-Ahti, B. pendula f. ’dalecarlica’ (L.f.) Schneid., B. pubescens Ehrh.
