Serbian spruce (Picea omorika (Pančić) Purk.) is an endemic tree species from the Balkan Peninsula. The species also thrives in Slovenia and would be an interesting minority alternative to Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) on some sites. This study

Response of rare and endangered species Picea omorika to climate change - The need for speed [PDF]
Serbian spruce (Picea omorika (Pancic) Purk.) is a rare and endangered tertiary relict and endemic species, with restricted and fragmented natural range in Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, mainly around the mid-course of the Drina river.

The phenotypic plasticity of of Picea omorika /Panc./Purkyne morphological pollen traits [PDF]
The variability of morphological traits of Picea omorika /Panc./Purkyne pollen was analyzed in two successive years on the pollen sampled from 24 trees in a seed stand at the site of Bela Zemlja in the area of Mt. Zlatibor (Serbia).

Provenance Variation in Functional Traits of European Forest Trees: Meta-Analysis Reveals Effects of Taxa and Age Despite Critical Research Gaps. [PDF]
This meta‐analysis on intraspecific variation in European trees studied the frequency of provenance variation, provenance–environment interaction, clinal variation along the climate of origin or transfer distance. While identifying trait group specific patterns of variation, research gaps have been identified in terms of age and geographical ...

ClAPRT3-Mediated Adenine Salvage Pathway Enhances Purine Metabolites to Sustain Seed Vigour During Selfing in Cunninghamia lanceolata. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Selfing often causes inbreeding depression, especially during seed and seedling stages. However, some selfed progeny show low inbreeding depression with enhanced vigour, differing from inbred counterparts. This study investigates the molecular mechanisms maintaining seed vigour during selfing in Cunninghamia lanceolata.

First automatic size measurements for the separation of dwarf birch and tree birch pollen in MIS 6 to MIS 1 records from Northern Germany. [PDF]
Using image recognition with a series of convolutional networks and machine learning, we automatically measure the size of fossil birch pollen from sediment samples. The measurements are useful for determining the presence of dwarf birches versus tree birches in the past.

Transversal stress wave velocity in the tree of Serbian spruce (Picea omorika (Pančić) Purkyně)
In this paper, transversal stress wave velocity was measured in 30 trees of Serbian spruce (Picea omorika /Pančić/ Purk.) using a 2D sonic tomograph. Tomograms were analyzed and speed loss and average speed for Serbian spruce were calculated. Since there
