Secondary somatic embryogenesis in Cork oak: influence of plant growth regulators

Forest Science and Technology, 2023
Cork oak (Quercus suber L.) is one of the most important Mediterranean forest tree species, and the Maâmora forest-Morocco is considered to be the world largest cork oak stand.

Do Distance-Dependent Competition Indices Contribute to Improve Diameter and Total Height Tree Growth Prediction in Juvenile Cork Oak Plantations?

Forests, 2023
Competition indices may improve tree growth modelling in high-density stands, found often in new cork oak plantations. Distance-dependent competition indices have hardly been considered for juvenile cork oak plantations since existing models were ...

Analysis of the suitability for ecotourism in Beira Baixa region using a spatial decision support system based on a geographical information system

Regional Science Policy &Practice, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Ecotourism can contribute to the conservation of environmental values, as well as to the development of positive synergies between agents in the tourism sector, tourists and the local population. The growing interest in tourism offers with low environmental impact, which support the local economy, translates into a competitive advantage for ...

Screening of Cork Oak for Resistance to Phytophthora cinnamomi and Micropropagation of Tolerant Seedlings

Horticulturae, 2023
Massive propagation of cork oak (Quercus suber) individuals tolerant to Phytophthora cinnamomi (Pc) is probably the most important challenge for cork production. Screening for resistance to Pc of ca.

Periderm differentiation: a cellular and molecular approach to cork oak

Trees, 2023
Cork oak is a unique species with the ability to produce a continuous and renewable cork throughout its lifespan. Periderm is a protective tissue composed of the phellem, phellogen, and phelloderm that replaces the epidermis.

Growth Responses to Climate and Drought in Relict Cork Oak Populations as a Benchmark of the Species Tolerance

Forests, 2023
We still lack information on the long-term growth responses to climate of relict tree populations, which often persist in topoclimatic refugia. To fill that research gap, we studied three relict cork oak (Quercus suber) populations located in northern ...

A review analysis of the degradation of cork oak forests in North Atlantic, Morocco

Journal of Biometry Studies, 2023
Like Mediterranean forests, Morocco's forest formations are highly diverse and comprise many species. Among the noble species, the cork oak (Quercus suber L.) is important in the Moroccan forest landscape.

Potential of endophytic Beauveria bassiana against Coraebus (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) oak borers. [PDF]

Pest Manag Sci
This study demonstrates that an endophytic, oak‐associated strain of Beauveria bassiana exhibits adaptations to Quercus plants and potential against Coraebus boring beetles, supported by distinctive biological traits. Abstract BACKGROUND Oak borers in the genus Coraebus, including the bark‐ and the wood‐boring beetles C. florentinus and C. undatus, are

Updating the mapping of cork oak forests in Calabria (Italy)

Forest@, 2020
Cork oak forests (Quercus suber L.) are one the most interesting forest ecosystems in the western Mediterranean Basin. The aim of this technical note is the presentation of the results of a recent survey carried out in the Calabria region (southern Italy)
