Seedling Recruitment of Native Tree Species in Active Restoration Forest
Since the 1970’s, concern has grown over the environmental impact of deforestation over large areas in the northern mountains of Thailand and conversion of forest to agriculture.

Non-Native Forest Tree Species in Europe: The Question of Seed Origin in Afforestation [PDF]
Non-native forest tree species have been introduced in Europe since the 16th century, but only in the second half of the 20th century the significance of the seed source origin for their economic use was recognized, resulting in the establishment of numerous provenance trials at a national, regional, European and International level, as those led by ...

Native plant species richness in non-native Pinus contorta forest [PDF]
Pinus contorta (lodgepole pine) is invasive in many southern hemisphere countries, having spread extensively from original plantings. It is widely controlled to limit its spread and negative impacts, and is generally assumed to have little value for native plant biodiversity. We surveyed vegetation in two stands of montane wilding P.

Flowering and Fruiting Phenology of Native and Non-Native Woody Species in a Semiarid Subtropical Forest [PDF]
Abstract The timing of flowering and fruiting events has major implications for community assemblies in time and space, and is an important trait for explaining plant invasion. Wolkovich and Cleland proposed four phenological hypotheses to explain invasion success; however, in semiarid subtropical forests, where non-native woody species are ...

Biotechniques used in native forest species
The «talares» are a native wooded community of Buenos Aires province (Argentine). They are be coming extined due to the agricultural frontier expansion, the urbanization and seed regeneration problems. The most important forest species that constitute them are: Celtis tala Gill. ex Planch. (tala), Acacia caven (Mol.) Mol.

Selectivity of herbicides in native forest species of cerrado
A aggravating problems in forest management is weed interference, which is a factor that modifies adaptation and reduces plant growth. The use of herbicides is an indispensable practice to mitigate these effects in reforestation areas. This study aimed to evaluate the selectivity of glyphosate and imazapyr in native plants of the Brazilian Cerrado ...

The soil seed bank in abandoned tropical pastures: source of regeneration or invasion?
We assessed the availability of both pioneer and non-native species in the soil seed bank of old-growth forest and recently abandoned pasture, to evaluate whether the soil seed bank in these pastures represents a source of regeneration of species from ...

Cryptic species, native populations and biological invasions by a eucalypt forest pathogen [PDF]
AbstractHuman‐associated introduction of pathogens and consequent invasions is very evident in areas where no related organisms existed before. In areas where related but distinct populations or closely related cryptic species already exist, the invasion process is much harder to unravel.

Eucalyptus plantations have been established in many areas of the world due to their fast growth and profitability. In NW Spain, Eucalyptus plantations now cover a larger area than native forests. Although Eucalyptus plantations have been shown to affect
