Cascading effects of a highly specialized beech-aphid–fungus interaction on forest regeneration [PDF]
PeerJ, 2014 Specialist herbivores are thought to often enhance or maintain plant diversity within ecosystems, because they prevent their host species from becoming competitively dominant. In contrast, specialist herbivores are not generally expected to have negative

Photosynthetic Response to Phosphorus Fertilization in Drought-Stressed Common Beech and Sessile Oak from Different Provenances. [PDF]
Plants (Basel)Increasingly frequent and severe droughts pose significant threats to forest ecosystems, particularly affecting photosynthesis, a crucial physiological process for plant growth and biomass production. This study investigates the impact of phosphorus fertilization on the photosynthesis of common beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) and sessile oak (Quercus ...

The Role of Phosphorus Fertilization in Antioxidant Responses of Drought-Stressed Common Beech and Sessile Oak Provenances. [PDF]
Int J Mol SciDuring drought, a major abiotic stressor for European forests, excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced, causing oxidative damage that affects structural and metabolic tree functions. This research examines the effects of drought, phosphorus (P) fertilization, and provenance on photosynthetic pigments, malondialdehyde (MDA) concentrations ...

Monitoring fungus infestation of common beech wood using terahertz radiation [PDF]
Holzforschung, 2019 Abstract Wood is one of the most widely used materials for construction projects, in the furniture industry, as well as in the field of cultural property of valuable objects. Terahertz (THz) radiation has great potential for non-contact and non-destructive analysis of wooden materials. This article reports a study of the degree of growth
