Distribution of Diplodia pinea and its genotypic diversity within asymptomatic Pinus patula trees [PDF]
Diplodia pinea (= Sphaeropsis sapinea) is an endophytic fungus and opportunistic canker pathogen of Pinus spp. The diversity of this fungus has been studied at broad geographic scales, but little is known regarding its population structure at smaller ...

Water use by Pinus radiata trees in a plantation [PDF]
We used the heat-pulse velocity technique to estimate transpirational water use of trees in an experimental 16-year-old Pinus radiata D. Don plantation in South Australia during a 4-month period from November 1993 to March 1994 (spring-summer). Fertilization and other silvicultural treatments during the first 8 years of the plantation produced trees ...

Genomic of resistance for Fusarium circinatum in Pinus radiata [PDF]
The pitch canker fungus Fusarium circinatum was first associated with mortality of P. radiata in California during the 1980s. Since then it has been dispersed to several countries of the Northern hemisphere together with South Africa and Chile in the southern hemisphere. In Chile the disease caused mortality of seedlings in P.

Thermal Characterization of Pinus radiata Wood Vacuum-Impregnated with Octadecane
The incorporation of phase change materials (PCM) in construction components has become an alternative to reduce the effect of thermal loads in buildings with low thermal inertia.

Twenty-year-old Pinus radiata trees imported from New Zealand were investigated, and a comparison was made between the outerwood (rings 16–20) and corewood (rings 4–6) in terms of mechanical properties, anatomical characteristics, microfibril angle (MFA),

Climate as possible reproductive barrier in Pinus radiata (D. Don) interspecific hybridisation
Historically, interspecific hybridisation with Pinus radiata D. Don had limited success. The effect of environmental conditions and position of pollination bags in the tree were investigated as possible hybridisation barriers.

The Value of Controlling Wilding Conifers in New Zealand
ABSTRACT Exotic, invasive conifer tree species, known as ‘wilding conifers’, pose a significant threat to natural ecosystems and are costly to manage, creating a need to identify community preferences in order to inform and balance public investment in their control.

Mapping and explaining the productivity of Pinus radiata in New Zealand [PDF]
Mapping Pinus radiata productivity for New Zealand not only provides useful information for forest owners, industry stakeholders and policy managers, but also enables current and future plantations to be visualised, quantified, and planned.

Spatiotemporal patterns of genetic variation for growth and fertility in Scots pine [PDF]
Genetic testing plays an important role in tree breeding. Understanding basic genetic parameters for growth and fertility is a prerequisite for developing a successful breeding strategy to balance between short- and long-term gains.
