Utilizing volatile organic compounds for early detection of Fusarium circinatum
Scientific Reports, 2022 Fusarium circinatum, a fungal pathogen deadly to many Pinus species, can cause significant economic and ecological losses, especially if it were to become more widely established in Europe. Early detection tools with high-throughput capacity can increase

Genomic of resistance for Fusarium circinatum in Pinus radiata [PDF]
BMC Proceedings, 2011 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.

Water use by Pinus radiata trees in a plantation [PDF]
Tree Physiology, 1996 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 ...

Climate as possible reproductive barrier in Pinus radiata (D. Don) interspecific hybridisation
Annals of Forest Research, 2017 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.

Retrospective image analysis for long‐term demography using Google Earth imagery
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.We demonstrate that high‐resolution Google Earth imagery, combined with minimal field validation, enables retrospective tracking of individual invasive plants. The image shows one of the monitored individuals of Opuntia sp. in Greece. Our approach reveals long‐term demographic patterns, recruitment dynamics, and spatial expansion without continuous ...

The Value of Controlling Wilding Conifers in New Zealand
Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.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.
