Climate-influenced ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) seed masting trends in western Montana, USA
Forest Systems, 2015 Aim of study: The aim of this study was to analyze 10-year records of ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) seed production, in order to confirm synchronic seed production and to evaluate cyclical masting trends, masting depletion effect, and climate-masting ...

Modeling the impact of reproductive mode on masting
, 2017 : Masting is defined as the intermittent highly variable production of seed in a plant population. According to reproductive modes, that is, sexual and asexual reproduction, masting species can be separated into three groups, that is, (1) species, for ...

Temperature cues and molecular control of masting. [PDF]
, 2019 Mast flowering (masting) is synchronised highly variable flowering by a population of perennial plants over a wide geographical area. Masting causes widespread community effects, including in New Zealand negative impacts on threatened birds, therefore ...

, 2010 The analysis and design of masts and towers requires special knowledge and experience, especially when it concerns guyed masts. The special problems related to these structures are underlined by the many collapses during the years. The basis of design for such antenna supporting structures are sometimes many and often mutual contradictory, and the ...

An increase in canopy cover leads to masting in Quercusilex
, 2010 10 páginas, 6 figuras, 4 tablas.Masting is the intermittent and synchronous production of large crops, but its relation to tree growth remains elusive despite the ecological relevance of mast seeding. The production of huge fruit crops has been linked to

Mast cells and canine mast cell tumours. A review [PDF]
Veterinary Quarterly, 2004 This article reviews the literature on mast cells and tumours derived from mast cells in the dog. Mast cells play a central role in inflammatory and immune reactions. Mast cells, normal and neoplastic, contain and release important biologically active substances: heparin, histamine, eosinophilic chemotactic factor and proteolytic enzymes.

Oak masting drivers vary between populations depending on their climatic environments
, 2023 Large interannual variation in seed production, called masting, is very common in wind-pollinated tree populations and has profound implications for the dynamics of forest ecosystems and the epidemiology of certain human diseases. 1 ,2 ,3 ,4 ,5 Comparing
