Seasonality and plasticity in the use of native and introduced plant resources by a large forest parrot

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Human‐induced environmental change is reshaping plant communities, requiring native animals to adapt their foraging behaviour to track and exploit novel food resources. Trees such as pines (Pinus spp.) introduced for plantation forestry outside of their native ranges often become naturalized.

Enhancement of Thermal–Acoustic Properties of Pinus radiata by Impregnation of Bio-Phase-Change Materials

open access: yesBuildings
Using fatty acids has generated significant interest in the building sector for improving energy storage in the form of latent heat. In this work, using vacuum impregnation, we analyzed the properties of a capric acid and myristic acid eutectic (83-17 ...

Batrachyla taeniata (Girard, 1855): filling the distribution gap and describing a new type of habitat for this species in central Chile [PDF]

open access: yesCheck List, 2016
We report a new locality for Batrachyla taeniata, which fills a 290 km gap in its geographic distribution. The records add a new type of habitat for B. taeniata, which was recorded in commercial plantations of Pinus radiata.

Melanism in salamanders: effects of insularity, sex and size on dorsal colouration in Salamandra salamandra

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
In this study we tested the effects of insularity on amphibian colouration using the fire salamander as a model system. Although increased melanism was not a consistent pattern across all islands, salamanders from one island exhibited higher proportions of black pigmentation than mainland populations, while insular populations overall showed reduced ...

Global population structures and demographic history of Suillus luteus, a pine co‐introduced ectomycorrhizal fungus associated with exotic forestry and invasion

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Global phylogenomic tree and phylogenetic network of Suillus luteus and its closely related species. Summary Human colonization since the 19th century has resulted in the global spread of pines beyond their original northern boreal distribution. Although the introduction history of pines is documented through historical records, little is known about ...

Pinus‐derived membrane vesicles disrupt pathogenic metabolism in fungi

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Needle‐derived vesicles from pine trees impair fungal metabolism and growth, offering a sustainable strategy to control pine pitch canker disease. Abstract Much of what we know about the biological impacts of vesicles (MVs) is derived from Arabidopsis thaliana.

Climate change and crop resilience: harnessing metabolomics for predicting stress tolerance

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 3, Page 975-995, August 2026.
Summarised methodology for metabolite biomarker discovery and genomic targets selection for those metabolites to predict high‐throughput phenotypic and agronomic traits of interest for direct uptake in breeding programmes. Summary Global warming is driving climate change to levels not experienced since the advent of agriculture, primarily due to ...

Modeling the mechanical properties of Pinus Radiata [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The study of a methodology to model the mechanical properties of Pinus Radiata takes place from the nanoscopic cell fiber [3] to the board scale level. Gibson and Ashy had generalized wood cells into hexagonal cells, previous work [2] extends the model ...

Bleached kraft pulp production from Pinus tecunumanii (Eguiluz e Perry) Produção de polpa kraft branqueada de Pinus tecunumanii (Eguiluz e Perry)

open access: yesRevista Árvore, 2005
The use of 12-year-old Pinus tecunumanii (Eguiluz e Perry) grown in Colombia was evaluated for bleached kraft pulp production. Kraft pulps of kappa number 30 ± 1 were produced, and oxygen delignified and bleached to 90% ISO with ECF processes.
