Gravitational stress on germinating Pinus pinea seeds
In the germination of lipid-rich seeds, the glyoxylate cycle plays a control role in that, bypassing the two decarboxylative steps of the Krebs cycle; it allows the net synthesis of carbohydrates from lipids. The activity of isocitrate lyase, the key enzyme of the glyoxylate cycle, is an indicator of the state of seed germination ...

Analysis of lipophilic compounds in needles of Pinus pinea L. [PDF]
Monoterpene, sesquiterpene, neutral diterpene, fatty and resin acids were analyzed in needles of Pinus pinea. Together these compounds represent a mean of 6 mg g-1 of fresh needles. Sixty-five different compounds were identified. The main components were l-limonene (monoterpene), β-caryophyllene and germacrene D (sesquiterpenes), (11E,13Z)-labdadien-8 ...

The evidence-based hypothesis is presented that the stems and branches of Pinus sylvestris injured by lightning strikes are colonized first by Therrya fuckelii and successively by Diplodia pinea, Nectria fuckeliana, Hyaloscypha leuconica, Gremmeniella ...

Size mediated climate–growth relationships in Pinus halepensis and Pinus pinea
Functional processes in trees undergo changes as the tree size increases, which may affect the response of trees to environmental factors. We tested tree-ring response to climate in four groups of trees, including large and small Pinus halepensis and Pinus pinea trees using cluster, principal component (PC) and dendroclimatological analysis.

The release of gravid Exochomus quadripustulatus females proved to be effective in containing Toumeyella parvicornis infestations on stone pine trees, under open‐field condition. The ladybugs caused a lower infestation level compared to the trees that did not receive any ladybugs during the observation season.

Ips sexdentatus is expanding across southern Europe, attacking multiple Pinus species and showing the ability to colonize trees at early stages of decline. Genetic analysis of 668 individuals revealed 106 haplotypes, with Iberian populations as diversity hotspots, reflecting long‐term refugial persistence alongside more recent demographic expansion ...

Abstract Protected areas represent complex social‐ecological systems that require governance and management approaches that valorise and enhance positive relationships between people and nature. This study analyses the alignment between social and ecological systems to detect the social‐ecological fit of projects focused on biodiversity conservation ...

We assessed alpha‐ and beta‐diversity patterns of spiders across different forests and across vegetation layers (ground, shrub, low canopy) at local spatial scales across various Mediterranean forest types. Across forests, alpha‐diversity increased with habitat heterogeneity, which also drove beta‐diversity patterns across plots .
