Effects of climate change on the distribution of plant species and plant functional strategies on the Canary Islands

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 29, Issue 9, Page 1157-1171, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim Oceanic islands possess unique floras with high proportions of endemic species. Island floras are expected to be severely affected by changing climatic conditions as species on islands have limited distribution ranges and small population sizes and face the constraints of insularity to track their climatic niches.

Forest Hydrology, Soil Conservation and Green Barriers in Canary Islands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In volcanic islands, the rainfall regime and its torrential nature, together with the steep slopes and the soil types present are considered to be some of the main factors affecting forest hydrology and soil conservation.

Body size‐dependent effects on the distribution patterns of phoretic mite species assemblages on Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier, 1790)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023
We report a high species richness of up to seven phoretic mite taxa, including five unspecified taxa, actively using the red palm weevil as a host in the first study of these organisms in Portugal. We also found body size‐dependent effects on the coexistence or exclusion of phoretic mite taxa that ultimately determine their distribution patterns on the

Evidence of Recombination Suppression Blocks on the Y Chromosome of Date Palm (Phoenix dactylifera)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The genus Phoenix includes the fruit producing date palm tree among 14 species that are all dioecious. Females produce the fruit that are high in sugar content and used in multiple countries ranging from North Africa to South Asia, especially from the ...

Net carbon balance study for selected roads in Tenerife, Canary Islands

open access: yesIntegrated Environmental Assessment and Management, Volume 19, Issue 4, Page 1023-1030, July 2023., 2023
Abstract Carbon dioxide emissions linked to the transport sector are particularly relevant to islands. The Canary Islands have high level of tourism, with tourists who generally travel in rented vehicles on arrival in the archipelago. In addition, mobility of the local population in the islands is also always growing.

Pest categorisation of coconut cadang‐cadang viroid

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 21, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health updated its 2017 pest categorisation of coconut cadang cadang viroid (CCCVd) for the EU territory due to new data on its host range. The identity of CCCVd, a member of the genus Cocadviroid (family Pospiviroidae), is established and detection and identification methods are available.

The Role of Canary Island Date Palms in Physical Amenity Provisioning for Urban Landscape Settings

open access: yesHorticulturae, 2021
Canary Island date palms (Phoenix canariensis) have been planted as a landscaping feature plant throughout warm, temperate, and subtropical climates. The physical amenity provisioning of this species (shade effects, microclimate amelioration, water usage,

The domestication syndrome in Phoenix dactylifera seeds : toward the identification of wild date palm populations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Investigating crop origins is a priority to understand the evolution of plants under domestication, develop strategies for conservation and valorization of agrobiodiversity and acquire fundamental knowledge for cultivar improvement. The date palm(Phoenix
