Sample Preparation and Separation of Lignans by Liquid Chromatography
ABSTRACT Lignans are important phytochemicals found mostly in the resins of coniferous trees, but are also introduced into human diets through foods such as sesame seeds and extra‐virgin olive oil. They are pharmacologically interesting mainly because of their antioxidant activities, and they have also been shown to have cytotoxic and antimicrobial ...

A survey of pine-associated aphids and their parasitoids was carried out in the arboretum of Pinus halepensis Miller in the Higher Agronomic Institute Chott Mariem (ISA CM, Tunisia) during 2010–2011 and 2018. The survey revealed the presence of the aphid

Post-fire management and recovery of a pine forest in Greece [PDF]
The effects of management after fire in <i>Pinus halepensis</i> forests were assessed in northern Greece. Seeding, logging and building of log barriers were applied in burned sites and compared to a control site.

Modeling of water infiltration in hydrophobic‐over‐wettable two‐layer columns
Abstract This paper presents a new piecewise model for simulating one‐dimensional infiltration curves in two‐layer finite columns consisting of a hydrophobic layer overlaying wettable soil. The model combines a physics‐based equation for infiltration in water‐repellent substrates with an analytical framework for ponded conditions.

Some Changes in Taxonomy of Pines (Pinus L.) Native to Turkey
Recent taxonomic studies and discussion lead us to overlook the taxonomic positions of the native Pinus L. taxa for Turkey. Based on the latest publications (especially Frankis, 2000; Farjon, 2005, 2010; Zsolt and István, 2010), herbarium and field ...

Performance analysis of a self-protection system for vehicles in case of WUI fire entrapment [PDF]
Sheltering inside a civilian vehicle has proved to be a high risk strategy in case of wildfire entrapment. Survival is by no means guaranteed, especially in moderate to high-intensity wildfires.

Contrasting effects of fire severity on the regeneration of Pinus halepensis Mill. and resprouter species in recently thinned thickets [PDF]
Many studies have outlined the benefits for growth and reproduction resulting from thinning extremely crowded young forests regenerating after stand replacing wildfires ("thickets").

An extensive survey of wild bee and bee–plant networks in Sardinia (Italy) highlights high species richness and diversity, particularly in mainland agroecosystems. All interaction networks were highly specialized, modular, and not nested, indicating potential ecological vulnerability, though varying across sites and on a temporal scale.

The addition of wildfire fine ash particles (particle size < 20 μm) in Mediterranean summer seawater can increase prokaryotic growth and alter community composition over time, likely through the release of both inorganic and organic substrates by ash particles and by inducing changes in the composition of phytoplankton populations.

Abnormal Shoot and Leaf Formation in Some Native Pine Species
In many tree species, when abnormal shoot formation after fire, insect attack and grazing is being observed, this formation is not common in pine species and not well-known.
