Studies on cambial activity: advances and challenges in the knowledge of growth dynamics of Brazilian woody species [PDF]
, 2013 The lack of specific research on the sequence of events that determine plant growth from meristem until wood formation represents a gap in the knowledge of growth dynamics in woody species.

Composition, distribution and supposed origin of mineral inclusions in sessile oak wood - consequences for microdensitometrical analysis [PDF]
, 2007 SEM and light-microscopical observations, supported by chemical microanalysis with an EDXA system, revealed that light-saturated pixels observed in X-ray negatives of sessile oak (Quercus petraea Liebl.) wood were caused by inorganic deposits present ...

Links between phenology and ecophysiology in a European beech forest
iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2015 Over the course of a year, tree physiological processes are not only directly affected by environmental conditions, but also by the tree’s own phenological stages. At the same time, phenological stages should, to a certain degree, reflect tree physiology.

Multi-scale influence of snowmelt on xylogenesis of black spruce [PDF]
, 2011 Snowmelt is considered to affect growth of the boreal forest. So, we tested the hypothesis that late snowmelts delay the onset of xylogenesis and reduce xylem production in trees. Timings of xylem formation were compared to the dates of complete snowmelt

Plastic and locally adapted phenology in cambial seasonality and production of xylem and phloem cells in Picea abies from temperate environments [PDF]
Tree Physiology, 2014 Despite its major economic importance and the vulnerability of Picea abies (L.) H. Karst. to climate change, how its radial growth at intra-annual resolution is influenced by weather conditions in forest stands with a high production capacity has scarcely been explored.

Growth rhythm of Vochysia divergens Pohl (Vochysiaceae) in the Northern Pantanal
Acta Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2015 The Pantanal is the largest wetland in the world, characterized by high biodiversity, but large areas have been invaded by Vochysia divergens, a flood-adapted pioneer and native tree of the riparian forest and Brazilian Savanna.

Cambial growth periodicity studies of South American woody species: A review [PDF]
, 2013 This paper reviews histological studies of cambium activity in South American woody species and provides future research prospects. The majority of the studies almost exclusively describe radial increment and/or its periodicity.

The overlooked role of individual variability in autumn xylem phenology and carbon sequestration
Forest EcosystemsAccurate modeling of carbon sequestration by forests requires scaling wood formation processes from trees to the landscape. The quantification of growth and carbon dynamics requires deep knowledge of the variability in xylem phenology among individuals ...
