Effects of hydrological regime on Taxodium ascendens plant decomposition and nutrient dynamics in the Three Gorges Reservoir riparian zone

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Riparian plants are an integral part of the river ecosystem and have significant impacts on the water quality of the reservoir area. The special hydrological process of the riparian zone makes it possible to become a “source” or “sink” of organic matter ...

Larch Cellulose Shows Significantly Depleted Hydrogen Isotope Values With Respect to Evergreen Conifers in Contrast to Oxygen and Carbon Isotopes [PDF]

, 2020
The analysis of the stable isotope of the tree-ring cellulose is an important tool for paleo climatic investigations. Long tree-ring chronologies consist predominantly of oaks and conifers in Europe, including larch trees (Larix decidua) and cembran ...

A War of Words: Do Conflict Metaphors Affect Beliefs about Managing “Unwanted” Plants?

Societies, 2013
Woody plants have increased in density and extent in rangelands worldwide since the 1800s, and land managers increasingly remove woodland plants in hopes of restoring pre-settlement conditions and/or improved forage for grazing livestock.

De novo transcriptome sequencing and gene co-expression reveal a genomic basis for drought sensitivity and evidence of a rapid local adaptation on Atlas cedar (Cedrus atlantica)

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
IntroductionUnderstanding the adaptive capacity to current climate change of drought-sensitive tree species is mandatory, given their limited prospect of migration and adaptation as long-lived, sessile organisms.

Application of Proteomics to the Study of Pollination Drops

Applications in Plant Sciences, 2013
Premise of the study: Pollination drops are a formative component in gymnosperm pollen-ovule interactions. Proteomics offers a direct method for the discovery of proteins associated with this early stage of sexual reproduction.

Enzymes of Glyoxylate in Conifers [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 1968
The high level of lipids in seeds of some species of conifers suggested that the glyoxylate cycle might have a role in conifer seed metabolism.Six species (Pinus pinea, Pinus pinaster, Pinus canariensis, Pinus strobus, Abies alba, and Cupressus sempervirens) were investigated for their lipid content and malate synthase and isocitrate lyase level.
