Investigation parametric diversity models in epiphytic corticolous mosses in relation to elevation changes in Caspian forests, south of Nowshahr (north of Iran) [PDF]
In order to understand the distribution models of corticolous mosses (epiphytes growing on trees barks) and variations in the their abundance related to altitudinal gradients, southern forests of nowshahr were selected along a longitudinal transect from ...

Effect of gap size on quantitative characteristics of regeneration groups in a Parrotio-Carpinetum forest type (Shastkola forest) [PDF]
In this study, in order to investigate regeneration success and determine the best gap area, the quantitative characteristics of the regeneration groups were evaluated at different gap area classes. For this purpose, 15 regeneration gaps were selected at

Genomic evidence for homoploid hybrid speciation between ancestors of two different genera
Carpinus fangiana exhibits intermediate morphology between C. viminea and Ostrya rehderiana. Here, the authors report that Carpinus sect. Distegocarpus likely originate through homoploid hybrid speciation (HHS) during the early divergence between ...
