Cambial activity of Dipterocarpus costulatus in relation to different stem diameters and climate factors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This study investigated the seasonal cambial activity in Dipterocrpus costulatus trees with different range of stem diameter at breast height (dbh). Samples from main stem of D.

Attraction of Phoracantha mastersi (Coloeptera: Cerambycidae) to copulation‐associated olfactory stimuli

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Damage caused by Phoracantha mastersi larvae are the primary cause of forest decline in Australia's subalpine forests. Behaviour of male adult beetles was tested in response to a suite of commercial semiochemicals and conspecifics engaged in active copulation within a Y‐maze.

Radial growing, cambial activity, and phenology of tree species in a subtropical forest in Southern Brazil

open access: yesiForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry
Understanding the factors that affect cambial activity can provide historical documentation of events influencing plant growth and development. This study aimed to link cambial activity and diameter increment of native and exotic species in a floodplain ...

Temperature Impacts on Mating and Oviposition of the Emerald Ash Borer, Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire (Coleoptera: Buprestidae)

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
The emerald ash borer (EAB), Agrilus planipennis, threatens ash trees in North America and Europe. To assess the role of temperature on EAB reproduction, we reared adults at one of four temperatures (12°C, 15°C, 18°C, and 21°C) and measured reproductive success.

Origin of Intra-annual Density Fluctuations in a Semi-arid Area of Northwestern China

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Intra-annual density fluctuation (IADF) is a structural modification of the tree ring in response to fluctuations in the weather. The expected changes in monsoon flow would lead to heterogeneous moisture conditions during the growing season and increase ...

Molecular factors involved in the formation of secondary vascular tissues and lignification in higher plants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The formation of secondary vascular tissues involves complex processes and many steps, a number of which have been examined in detail in this study. A novel CuZn-SOD, with a high pI and thus denoted hipI-SOD, was identified and characterized in Pinus ...

Therapeutic Bark Gouging as an Effective Complement for the Management of Ips typographus and Pityogenes chalcographus While Preserving Habitat for Secondary Scolytine (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) Species

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Norway spruce will likely remain an important tree species in Europe over the next few decades despite efforts to transform forests and reduce its distribution range more to its natural range. Consequently, Ips typographus will remain one of the most relevant forest pests the management of which will become increasingly challenging due to ...

Intra-annual cambial activity and carbon availability in stem of poplar [PDF]

open access: yesTree Physiology, 2009
Cambial activity is influenced by many environmental and physiological factors and among them, carbon acts as a source of energy for the growing meristems. This work has focused on the intra-annual stem growth of poplar compared with the carbon available for xylogenesis processes in cambium and outer wood.

Establishing Baseline Information for the Risk of Flatheaded Borer Attack in Specialty Tree Crops Using Trapping and On‐Farm Surveys

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flatheaded borers (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) are largely xylophagous insects. Larvae of flatheaded borers tunnel into the trunks of trees, with boring and feeding damage eventually appearing on the surface as discolored bark, sunken areas, bark splits or bark sloughing.

Apical control of xylem formation in the pine stem. I. Auxin effects and distribution of assimilates

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
The effect of IAA upon cambial activity, xylem differentiation and translocation of assimilates from the lateral shoot was investigated in spring and late summer in decapitated and ring-barked young trees of Pinus silvestris in the forest stand ...
