Within-tree, between-tree, and geospatial variation in estimated Pinus radiata bark volume and weight in New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Forestry Science, 2015
BackgroundMany studies have been carried out to quantify the wood properties of radiata pine, but few have explicitly looked at quantifying radiata pine bark. Bark is of increasing interest for many reasons, e.g.

Tolerance of plantain (Plantago lanceolata) to translocated herbicides wiped on flower stems

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 68, Issue 6, Page 1502-1514, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Growing plantain (Plantago lanceolata) within pastures reduces nitrate leaching following grazing. Plantain is usually grown with grass and clover species, making selective weed control challenging. One strategy to selectively remove tall weeds in pastures with mixed species is to apply herbicides using weed wipers. However, for many months of

Isolation and Characterisation of Bacterial Metabolites as Potential Wood Preservatives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The durability of wood has traditionally relied on the use of heavy metals and toxic compounds to deter wood degrading fungi. Conventional wood preservatives such as Chromated Copper Arsenate (CCA) have been widely used to control wood degrade for many ...

Is co‐existence and/or containment of genetically modified plants possible, and is it important?

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 68, Issue 6, Page 1329-1380, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Co‐existence and containment of genetically modified (GM) plants has been a contentious issue since GM technologies were first commercially released in the mid‐1990s. In the first decade of commercial GM plant use, there were a significant number of contamination incidents resulting from GM presence in non‐GM crops and seed, some with a ...
