Looking for Local Adaptation: Convergent Microevolution in Aleppo Pine (Pinus halepensis). [PDF]
Finding outlier loci underlying local adaptation is challenging and is best approached by suitable sampling design and rigorous method selection. In this study, we aimed to detect outlier loci (single nucleotide polymorphisms, SNPs) at the local scale by using Aleppo pine (Pinus halepensis), a drought resistant conifer that has colonized many habitats ...

Needles of Pinus halepensis as biomonitors of bioaerosol emissions. [PDF]
We propose using the surface of pine trees needles to biomonitor the bioaerosol emissions at a composting plant. Measurements were based on 16S rRNA gene copy numbers of Saccharopolyspora rectivirgula, a bioindicator of composting plant emissions. A sampling plan was established based on 29 samples around the emission source.

Lipids of Pinus halepensis pollen
Abstract The total lipids of Pinus halepensis pollen were separated into individual classes of neutral and polar lipids and the components of each class were identified and determined quantitatively. Free fatty acids, waxes and triacylglycerols were found as the main constituents of neutral lipids and phosphatidylcholine and ...

Xylem plasticity in Pinus pinaster and Quercus ilex growing at sites with different water availability in the Mediterranean region: relations between Intra-Annual Density Fluctuations and environmental conditions. [PDF]
Fluctuations in climatic conditions during the growing season are recorded in Mediterranean tree-rings and often result in intra-annual density fluctuations (IADFs).

Fast growing tree species can generate high wood production in a short time frame. However, maximum productivity is dependent on environmental and management conditions as well as intrinsic plant traits.
