The regeneration status of Fitzroya cupressoides in the cordillera Pelada, Chile
Biological Conservation, 1982Abstract The large conifer, Fitzroya cupressoides (Mol.) Johnston, which is native to southern Chile and Argentina, has been intensively exploited for its valuable wood since European colonization in the 16th century. Today F. cupressoides persists only in relatively small, remote stands and reports of inadequate regeneration have given rise to ...

Desarrollo de plantaciones experimentales jóvenes de Fitzroya cupressoides establecidas en el arboreto de la Universidad Austral de Chile, Valdivia [PDF]
Two experimental plantations of Fitzroya cupressoides (alerce), established at the arboretum of Universidad Austral de Chile (Valdivia, 39°48’S and 73°14’W; 50 m asl) in 1994, were evaluated in May 2004 in order to assess its development ex situ through ...

Conservation genetics of the endangered conifer Fitzroya cupressoides in Chile and Argentina
Conservation Genetics, 2000Intraspecific patterns of genetic variation can often be used toidentify biogeographic divisions which can be especially useful in thedesign of conservation strategies. Although abundant empirical evidenceexist on the genetic characteristics of plant species from the NorthernHemisphere as well as tropical endangered taxa, this information ...

The Conservation of Fitzroya cupressoides and Its Environment in Southern Chile
Environmental Conservation, 1976The giant conifer, Fitzroya cupressoides (Mol.) Johnston, or Alerce (ah-laír-say), which is native to southern Chile and Argentina, has been intensively exploited for its durable wood since the European colonization of southern South America. Today, it persists only in relatively small stands mostly in very remote and inaccessible areas. While location

A 3620-Year Temperature Record from Fitzroya cupressoides Tree Rings in Southern South America
Science, 1993A tree-ring width chronology of alerce trees ( Fitzroya cupressoides ) from southern Chile was used to produce an annually resolved 3622-year reconstruction of departures from mean summer temperatures (December to March) for southern South America. The longest interval with above-average temperatures was from 80 B.C.

[Occupational skin allergy to alerc (Fitzroya cupressoides)].
Berufs-Dermatosen, 1976The authors report a case of skin allergy to Fitzroya cupressoides (Alerce), and describe the phytochemical classification of that tropical tree. The method of detection of this skin allergy is detailed.

Dendrochronological techniques have proved to be an effective tool in the investigation of illegal cutting of Fitzroya because it is illegal to trade and cut wood coming from living individuals or from trees that were killed after 1976 either by natural or anthropogenic causes.

Isozyme variation and recent biogeographical history of the long‐lived conifer Fitzroya cupressoides
Journal of Biogeography, 2000AbstractAim Palaeoenvironmental records of Pleistocene glaciation and associated vegetation changes in Patagonia have led to the hypothesis that during the last glacial maximum (LGM) tree species survived locally in favourable habitats. If present populations originated from spread from only one refugium, such as an ice‐free area of coastal Chile ...
