Carpinus caroliniana: American Hornbeam
A handsome tree in many locations, the tree slowly reaches a height and spread of 20 to 30 feet. It will grow with an attractive open habit in total shade, but be dense in full sun. The muscle-like bark is smooth, gray and fluted. Ironwood has a slow growth rate and is reportedly difficult to transplant from a field nursery (although 10-inch-diameter ...

The thermal treatment of wood changes its structure due to the degradation of wood polymers (cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin), so the physical properties of wood are either improved or degraded.

ABSTRACT Species in grasslands restored from former arable land have multiple obstacles when establishing. Understanding whether these limitations stem from soil chemical or microbial differences could help to create suitable environments for specific target and other species with similar requirements.

Biochemimechanical pulping of hornbeam chips with Phanerochaete chrysosporium
The effect of fungal pretreatment of Hornbeam (Carpinus betulus) wood chips on the performance of treated pulps was studied. The chips were pretreated with P. chrysosporium BKM-1767 fungus at 1, 2, and 4 weeks using an inoculation temperature and relative humidity of 39 oC and 65%, respectively with two pulping times (80 and 90 min) and three sodium ...

Investigation of affective habitat factors affecting on abundance of wood macrofungi and sensitivity analysis using the artificial neural network (case study: Kheyrud forest, Noshahr) [PDF]
One advantage of artificial neural networks is application in the management and planning of natural ecosystems. Considering the high biological diversity of northern forests of Iran, it is necessary to know forests ecosystems.

Oak and hornbeam pollen season in Kielce in 2021
The paper presents the characteristics of oak and hornbeam pollen seasons in Kielce in 2021. Aeropalinological measurements were carried out with the use of the volumetric method. The main oak pollen season lasted 35 days. The maximum concentration of oak pollen, i.e.

Moderate retention forestry creates structurally sharp forest edges that act as ecological filters, shaping orientation‐specific activity of ground‐dwelling arthropods. Using drift‐fence pitfall traps, we show that activity aligned with ecotones is more frequent than activity across forest–clearcut boundaries, particularly among detritivores.

Carpinus betulus: European Hornbeam
The species is not normally grown but it reaches 60 feet tall and spreads 40 feet preferring well-drained soil. Cultivars are more common than the species. The cultivar `Fastigiata' is most often offered by nurseries and is a popular street tree. The species tolerates a pH above 7.0.

Assessing the host plants of the invasive apricot aphid, Myzus mumecola (Hemiptera: Aphididae)
We investigated the host plants of the invasive apricot aphid Myzus mumecola (Hemiptera: Aphididae), an emerging pest species in Europe, by combining molecular and ecological approaches. The winter host plant was confirmed as apricot by both methods.
