Why does Quercus suber species decline in Mediterranean areas?

Journal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity, 2017
The cork oak (Quercus suber L.) is a prevalent tree species in the Mediterranean climate zones of western Europe and north Africa with a quite narrow geographical range of distribution, as compared with the other Mediterranean evergreen oak species such ...

Total income and ecosystem service sustainability index: Accounting applications to holm oak dehesa case study in Andalusia-Spain

, 2020
This research develops the novel concept of an economic ecosystem service sustainability index from the perspective of total income theory, and presents its empirical application at the spatial unit scale of the agroforestry farm. This paper compares the

Drivers of holm oak fecundity

, 2020
Le changement climatique exerce une pression croissante sur les forêts du monde entier, et ses impacts potentiels sur la fécondité des arbres sont encore mal compris. De nombreuses espèces d’arbres forestiers se reproduisent suivant des patrons de fructification intermittente et synchronisée entre les individus, dits de masting, dont les déterminants ...

Preliminary Investigation of LED Lighting as Growth Light for Seedlings from Different Tree Species in Growth Chambers

Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 2012
The influence of light quality on growth and metabolic activity during pre-cultivation (in miniplug containers) of beech (Fagus sylvatica L.), holm oak (Quercus ilex L.) and wild cherry (Prunus avium) plants was investigated.

Advances in Quercus ilex L. breeding: the CRISPR/Cas9 technology via ribonucleoproteins

Frontiers in Plant Science
The CRISPR/Cas9 ribonucleoprotein (RNP)-mediated technology represents a fascinating tool for modifying gene expression or mutagenesis as this system allows for obtaining transgene-free plants, avoiding exogenous DNA integration.

Unevenaged coppice holm oak stands: silvicultural description

Forest Systems, 1998
Uneven coppice stands of evergreen oak (Quercus ilex L.) of Gerona (NE Spain) are described. Three structurally different situations are analysed: close after silvicultural intervention, in the middle of two interventions and before cutting. Therefore 19 plots were selected in the area, obtaining dasometric and qualitative values in order to ...

Rainfall interception by Holm Oaks in Mediterranean open woodland

Cuadernos de Investigación Geográfica, 2013
The role of holm oaks (Quercus rotundifolia) in the redistribution of precipitation was studied in the dehesas, a landuse system widespread in the southwestern part of the Iberian Peninsula. It consists of pastureland with an openly spaced tree cover. Measurements of through-flow and stemflow were carried out in the Guadalperalón study catchment, and ...
