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 ...

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.

Commodity risk assessment of debarked conifer wood chips fumigated with sulfuryl fluoride from the US. [PDF]
Abstract The European Commission requested the EFSA Panel on Plant Health to deliver a risk assessment on the likelihood of pest freedom from regulated EU quarantine pests, with emphasis on Bursaphelenchus xylophilus and its vectors Monochamus spp. of debarked conifer wood chips fumigated with sulfuryl fluoride as proposed by the United States (US) and

Multiple forms of superoxide dismutase in the apoplast and whole-needle extract of Serbian spruce [Picea omorika (Panč.) Purkyně] [PDF]
Activity and isoenzyme composition of superoxide dismutase in the apoplast and whole-needle extract of Picea omorika (Panč.) Purkyně, was studied. Total SOD activity of the soluble fraction of the needle extract exceeded markedly that of the apoplastic ...

Antioxidative enzymes during germination of two lines of Serbian spruce [Picea omorika (Panč.) Purkyně] [PDF]
Two lines of Picea omorika (Panč.) Purkyně were compared with respect to germination percentage as well as specific activity and isoenzyme pattern of catalase, superoxide dismutase, and peroxidase (POD) during germination. Line A had a higher germination

Picea omorika is a self-fertile but outcrossing conifer [PDF]
Outcrossing rates were estimated in a natural Yugoslavian and in a cultivated Finnish population of Serbian spruce [Picea omorika (Pančić) Purk.]. The outcrossing rates in the cultivated stand in two years were 0.98 ±0.03 and 1.02 ±0.04, and in the natural stand 0.84 ±0.05.

Cell wall response to UV radiation in needles of Picea omorika [PDF]
The UV-B represents the minor fraction of the solar spectrum, while UV-C is not contained in natural solar radiation, but both radiation types can cause damaging effects in plants. Cell walls (CWs) are one of the targets for external stressors. Juvenile P.
