Generalist‐pollinated Arabis alpina exhibits floral scent variation at multiple scales
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Plants that depend on animals for reproduction often use complex floral traits to attract pollinators. Floral scent is recognized as part of the pollinator attraction module and can be shaped by plant‐pollinator interactions. In recent decades, research has started to reveal the dynamic properties of floral scent, identifying patterns of spatial and ...

Diameter growth of European beech on carbonate: a regional versus forest type perspective
European Journal of Forest Research, 2023 AbstractWe studied the impacts of site, stand and tree variables on the diameter growth of beech trees (Fagussylvatica L.) on carbonate bedrock and examined to what extent the regional diameter growth model can be used at the forest type level. Based on 12,193 permanent sampling plots (500 m2 each) with 94,770 beech trees, we first developed a linear ...

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract The recovery of large carnivores in Europe raises issues related to sharing landscape with humans. Beyond technical solutions, it is widely recognized that social factors also contribute to shaping coexistence. In this context, scholars increasingly stress the need to adopt place‐based approaches by analysing how humans and wildlife interact ...

Abundant and rare spiders on tree trunks in German forests (Arachnida, Araneae) [PDF]
, 2011 The spider fauna active on the bark of trees in forests on eight sites in different regions in Germany was investigated. Trunk eclectors at about 2-4 meters height on living trees were used in different regions of Germany (SW Bavaria, Hesse, Brandenburg)

Beech wood treated with polyglycerol succinate: a new effective method for its protection and stabilization [PDF]
, 2020 This paper deals with an original and non-biocidal chemical treatment consisting of a vacuum/pressure impregnation step of beech wood with a water-borne mixture made from heat-activated condensation of succinic anhydride (SA) and glycerol (G).

A reference genome of the European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) [PDF]
GigaScience, 2018 Abstract Background The European beech is arguably the most important climax broad-leaved tree species in Central Europe, widely planted for its valuable wood. Here, we report the 542 Mb draft genome sequence of an up to 300-year-old individual (Bhaga) from an undisturbed stand in the Kellerwald ...
