Deciphering the transcriptomic regulation of heat stress responses in Nothofagus pumilio. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2021 Global warming is predicted to exert negative impacts on plant growth due to the damaging effect of high temperatures on plant physiology. Revealing the genetic architecture underlying the heat stress response is therefore crucial for the development of ...

A Mosaic of Future Maladaptation Predicted for the Widespread Tree <i>Nothofagus pumilio</i>. [PDF]
Evol ApplABSTRACT Nothofagus pumilio , or lenga beech, is a widespread and locally‐adapted tree species endemic to South America's Patagonia region. Its diverse populations span a 2000‐km‐long range in the Andes Mountains, which is already experiencing adverse effects from climate change. Here the Andes

Phytochemical Screening and Antioxidant Activity of Seven Native Species Growing in the Forests of Southern Chilean Patagonia [PDF]
Molecules, 2021 The genus Nothofagus is one of the most abundant in the subantarctic Patagonian forests. Five species inhabit these ecosystems, three evergreen (Nothofagus betuloides, Nothofagus dombeyi, and Nothofagus nitida) and two deciduous (Nothofagus pumilio and ...

Radial Growth Patterns Associated with Tree Mortality in Nothofagus pumilio Forest [PDF]
Forests, 2019 Tree mortality is a key process in forest dynamics. Despite decades of effort to understand this process, many uncertainties remain. South American broadleaf species are particularly under-represented in global studies on mortality and forest dynamics.

Lake Bacterial Communities in North Patagonian Andes: The Effect of the Nothofagus pumilio Treeline. [PDF]
Microb EcolOne of the most noticeable environmental discontinuities in mountains is the transition that exists in vegetation below and above the treeline. In the North Patagonian Andean lakes (between 900 and 1950 m a.s.l.), we analyzed the bacterial community composition of lakes in relation to surrounding vegetation (erected trees, krummholz belt, and bare ...

Ectomycorrhizal fungi and the nitrogen economy of Nothofagus in southern Patagonia [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionSubantarctic Nothofagus forests are the southernmost forests in the world, with negligible atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition. Most paradigms about the role of ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi in N cycling and plant N uptake at high latitudes have been ...

Seasonal Turnover and Functional Structure of the Foliar Mycobiota in a Gondwanan Temperate Forest Keystone Tree [PDF]
Journal of FungiFungal communities inhabiting leaves are key players in ecosystem processes but remain largely unexplored in Southern Hemisphere temperate forests. We characterized the foliar mycobiota of Nothofagus pumilio, a dominant deciduous tree in Patagonian ...

Influence of droughts on Nothofagus pumilio forest decline across northern Patagonia, Argentina
Ecosphere, 2016 Understanding the influence of climatic variations on forest decline is a major challenge for scientists investigating global changes. Although reductions in tree growth have previously been associated with forest decline, comprehensive efforts to ...
