Low persistence of Phytophthora ramorum (Werres, De Cock, and Man in ‘t Veld) in western France after implementation of eradication measures

Annals of Forest Science
Key message Presence of Phytophthora ramorum (Werres, De Cock, and Man in ‘t Veld) in western France was studied after the detection of this invasive pathogen in 2017 in Larix kaempferi (Lamb.) and eradication of the affected stands. P.

Soil available phosphorus and pH are key factors affecting the site index of Larix kaempferi plantations in China

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change
Assessing the quality of forest sites is crucial for evaluating the potential productivity of forests and formulating effective management strategies. Therefore, it is essential to understand how environmental variables affect the site quality.

Pest categorisation of Mycodiella laricis‐leptolepidis

EFSA Journal, 2018
Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Plant Health (PLH) performed a pest categorisation of Mycodiella laricis‐leptolepidis, a well‐defined and distinguishable fungal species of the family Mycosphaerellaceae.

Changes in the Wood Fungal Community Composition in Living Chamaecyparis pisifera Trees During the Progression of Heart Rot Caused by Serpula himantioides

Forest Pathology, Volume 55, Issue 5, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Serpula himantioides is a widely distributed wood rot fungus that causes heart rot in various tree species. In Japan, heart rot due to S. himantioides occurs in Chamaecyparis pisifera; however, changes in the wood fungal community composition accompanying the progression of heart rot in living trees remain unclear.

NGATHA carpel development genes evolved in the common ancestor of seed plants

The Plant Journal, Volume 124, Issue 1, October 2025.
SUMMARY The evolution of the carpel, the defining feature of angiosperms, remains a fundamental question in plant biology. Understanding how this organ originated is crucial because it underpins the reproductive success and diversity of flowering plants.

Genetic variation among Larix kaempferi(Lamb.) Carrière plantations in South Korea based on microsatellite markers: implications for seed productivity

Forest Science and Technology
Recently, Larix kaempferi has become a major timber resource in South Korea. However, seed production for afforestation remains insufficient to meet the high demand for wood. This study analyzed the genetic variation in L.

Spatial variation in local population dynamics of sika deer, Cervus nippon, through intensified management

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 89, Issue 7, September 2025.
We analyzed sika deer density trends over 27 years in 256 mesh‐units in Hokkaido, Japan. High‐density areas saw sharp declines, while low‐density areas remained stable. Prioritizing management in high‐density areas can improve overall control efficiency. Abstract Population reduction through hunting and nuisance control has been practiced in many parts

DBH growth for three years after thinning on even-aged Pinus koraiensis and Larix kaempferi plantations in South Korea

Forest Science and Technology, 2019
This study was conducted to determine the effects of different thinning intensities on the DBH growth of Pinus koraiensis and Larix kaempferi trees. Permanent monitoring plots were installed in 26 P. koraiensis plantations and 36 L. kaempferi plantations

Overwintering foraging tactics of sedentary sika deer in a region prone to heavy snow in northern Japan

Ecological Research, Volume 40, Issue 5, September 2025.
We present the overwintering foraging tactics adopted by the sika deer recently established in a heavy snowfall region of northern Japan. We found that sedentary deer adopted risk‐averse foraging by switching their dietary compositions to readily available foods under different snow conditions. In particular, when facing extreme snowfall, they depended

Effects of The Torrefaction Process on The Fuel Characteristics Larix kaempferi C

Journal of the Korean Wood Science and Technology, 2015
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate the fuel characteristics of thermally treated wood chips of the Larix kaempferi C. As torrefaction temperature was increased (200℃ to 300℃), the carbon content, calorific value, and mass loss of torrefied wood chips increased significantly. The torrefied wood chips were shown to have hydrophobic properties
