Recovery of Seed Quality and Germination Success Following Severe Wildfires in Araucaria araucana Forests of the Southern Andes [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionIncreasing frequency and severity of forest fires is affecting natural ecosystems on a global scale. Temperate forests that have experienced severe wildfires are likely to encounter difficulties to recover and establish new cohorts of plants in the short‐

Araucaria araucana: Monkey Puzzle Tree
EDIS, 2003 Monkey-Puzzletree is a large, bizarre evergreen, 60 to 70 feet tall and 30 to 35 feet wide, which forms a loose, see-through, pyramidal shape with a straight trunk. The tree is so open in habit you could almost look at it and not see it.

Genetic variation in the vulnerable and endemic Monkey Puzzle tree, detected using RAPDs [PDF]
Heredity, 2002 Araucaria araucana (Monkey Puzzle), a southern South American tree species of exceptional cultural and economic importance, is of conservation concern owing to extensive historical clearance and current human pressures. Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers were used to characterise genetic heterogeneity within and among 13 populations of ...

A Holocene history of monkey puzzle tree (pehuén) in northernmost Patagonia
Journal of Biogeography, 2020 AbstractAimAlthough it is established that climate and fire have greatly influenced the long‐term ecosystem dynamics of Patagonia south of 40°S, the environmental history from northernmost Patagonia (37–40°S), where endemic and endangered monkey puzzle tree (Araucaria araucana) occurs, is poorly known.
