Population structure of Betula albosinensis and Betula platyphylla: evidence for hybridization and a cryptic lineage. [PDF]
AbstractBackground and AimsDifferences in local abundance and ploidy level are predicted to impact the direction of introgression between species. Here, we tested these hypotheses on populations of Betula albosinensis (red birch) and Betula platyphylla (white birch) which were thought to differ in ploidy level, the former being tetraploid and the ...

Transcriptomic Analysis of Phenotypic Changes in Birch (Betula platyphylla) Autotetraploids [PDF]
Plant breeders have focused much attention on polyploid trees because of their importance to forestry. To evaluate the impact of intraspecies genome duplication on the transcriptome, a series of Betula platyphylla autotetraploids and diploids were generated from four full-sib families.

Overexpression of BpERF1.1 in Betula Platyphylla enhanced tolerance to multiple abiotic stresses. [PDF]
Cold, salt and drought are the main environmental stresses affecting plant growth and crop yield. ERF1, a member of the well-studied ERF gene family, has been proven to play an important role in abiotic stress in plants. In this study, an ERF1, BpERF1.1, was overexpressed in birch (Betula Platyphylla Suk.) and 11 transgenic lines were obtained. Effects

Patterns of shoot mortality in Betula platyphylla in northern Japan [PDF]
To understand the development of crown structure in Betula platyphylla Sukatch., mortality patterns of long shoots were analyzed quantitatively. We selected 25 saplings growing under various light conditions and measured the relative photosynthetically active radiation (rPAR) at, and the three-dimensional position of, first-order branches. A long shoot

Pollen morphology of Nothofagus (Nothofagaceae, Fagales) and its phylogenetic significance [PDF]
Nothofagaceae (southern beeches) are a relatively small flowering plant family of trees confined to the Southern Hemisphere. The fossil record of the family is abundant and it has been widely used as a test case for the classic hypothesis that Antarctica,

Effect of Root Moisture Content and Diameter on Root Tensile Properties. [PDF]
The stabilization of slopes by vegetation has been a topical issue for many years. Root mechanical characteristics significantly influence soil reinforcement; therefore it is necessary to research into the indicators of root tensile properties.

Two new triterpenes from Betula platyphylla
Abstract Two new triterpenes, 3α,12β,20( S ),24-tetrahydroxydammar-25-ene (III) and 3α,12β,20( S ),25- tetrahydroxydammar-23-ene (V) were isolated from Betula platyphylla Sukatchev var. japonica . These betulafolientetraols were synthesized from betulafolientriol (I) by photo-oxidation.
