Differential DNA Methylation Patterns Are Related to Phellogen Origin and Quality of Quercus suber Cork. [PDF]
DNA methylation is thought to influence Quercus suber cork quality, which is the main constraint for its economic valorisation. However, a deep knowledge of the cytosine methylation patterns disclosing the epigenetic variability of trees with different ...

Optimal Regeneration Regime under Continuous Crown Cover Requirements in Cork Oak Woodlands [PDF]
In the present work the cork oak tree spatial growth simulator CORKFITS is used to create candidate scenarios for generating a large set of regeneration regimes combining both time and intensity factors with the individual tree spatial information.

Soil Microbial Biomass And Activity In A Cork Oak Savanna [PDF]
Cork oak savannas are composed by a sparse tree canopy (30-70 trees/ha) and a grassland understory predominantly composed of C3 annuals that survive the hot and dry Mediterranean summers as seeds in the soil.

Chloroanisoles and Other Chlorinated Compounds in Cork from Different Geographical Areas
Cork quality is crucial for the fabrication of corks intended to be used to seal wine bottles. This work has focused on the determination of chloroanisoles (CAs)—exogenous compounds with a low perception threshold—in cork.
