Photosynthetic responses to overnight frost in Eucalyptus nitens and E. globulus
Trees - Structure and Function, 2004Significant expansion in the area of eucalypt plantations in Tasmania has led to their establishment at altitudes that are close to the upper limits of the planting distributions of Eucalyptus nitens and E. globulus, the main species planted. This has implications for plantation productivity.

Cold hardening reduces photoinhibition of Eucalypts nitens and E. pauciflora at frost temperatures
Oecologia, 1998Photoinhibition of photosynthesis at low temperatures was investigated in two species of subalpine eucalypt, Eucalypts nitens (Deane and Maiden) Maiden and E. pauciflora Sieb. ex Spreng. Imposition of an artificial cold-hardening treatment increased the frost tolerance of leaf tissue and increased tolerance to excess light.

Root distribution of Eucalyptus nitens and E. globulus in irrigated and droughted soil
Forest Ecology and Management, 2003Abstract Root development of Eucalyptus globulus Labill. and E. nitens (Deane and Maiden) Maiden grown in Tasmania was compared between treatments that had been continually irrigated since establishment or subjected to cycles of drought stress. Roots in diameter classes 1–2, >2–5, >5–10 and >10 mm were sampled and their frequency recorded in trench ...

Eliminating Growth-Stresses in Eucalyptus: A Scoping Study with E. bosistoana and E. nitens
2017Tropical hardwoods dominate the market for fine timbers. In contrast, plantation-grown eucalypts, whether in temperate or tropical regions, are grown largely for pulpwood. Addressing log end-splitting and distortion of timber due to growth-stress is necessary if eucalypts are to succeed in solid wood markets.

Isozyme Variation in Eucalyptus nitens and E. denticulata
Australian Journal of Botany, 1998Seed samples from 22 populations across the geographic range of E. nitens (Deane & Maiden) Maiden s. str. and E. denticulata I.O. Cook & P.Y. Ladiges wereanalysed for isozyme variation and estimation of the genetic distance betweenthe two taxa. Analysis of 12 enzyme systems in 3 buffer systems revealed 12polymorphic and 5 monomorphic loci.

Genetic parameters of intra- and inter-specific hybrids of Eucalyptus globulus and E. nitens
Tree Genetics & Genomes, 2007Intra-specific hybrids within Eucalyptus nitens and E. globulus were compared directly with inter-specific E. nitens × globulus using common parents. Diameter (age 2, 4, 6, 10 years) and Pilodyn (age 6 years) were used as indirect measures of growth and wood density, respectively. Genetic parameters were estimated for all cross types and traits.

This study characterized the chemical responses of Eucalyptus globulus and Eucalyptus nitens to artificial inoculation with a basidiomycete decay fungus. Nine-year-old trees responded to mechanical wounding or inoculation with the decay fungus by producing new wound wood characterized by the presence of dark extractives 17 months after wounding ...

Daily stem growth patterns in irrigated Eucalyptus globulus and E. nitens in relation to climate
Trees, 1999Daily increments in stem radius were determined from hourly dendrometer measurements in each of three irrigated Eucalyptus nitens and E. globulus trees. Multiple regressions determined from daily weather variables accounted for 40–50% of the variance in increment. The use of weather variables lagged by 1–2 days increased the variance explained.

Kino vein formation inEucalyptus globulusandE. nitens
Australian Forestry, 2003Summary Kino veins or pockets are characteristic defects of some Eucalyptus species and have long been recognised as sources of degrade in eucalypt timber. In order to investigate the causes of kino vein formation, the short-term responses of Eucalyptus globulus and E.
