Impact of Seed Transmission on the Infection and Development of Pitch Canker Disease in Pinus radiata

open access: yes, 2015
: The aim of this study was to determine the impact of seed inoculum on subsequent disease development in nurseries, specifically studying incidence of seed infection, transmission rate of seed to seedlings, and rate of disease development from the ...

Landslide preparation by forestry activity in a region of high erosion rates: Waingake Landslide, northeast New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 68, Issue 5, Page 1015-1030, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Northeastern New Zealand’s sedimentary rocks and soils are particularly vulnerable to landsliding, with some of the highest specific sediment yields, globally. In addition to earthquakes, rainfall is considered an important landslide triggering process.

Are there clear benefits from diversification of land use: a review and preliminary meta‐analysis?

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 2060-2081, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Diversified farming systems are often considered more resilient and environmentally sustainable than monocultures. However, their performance on key environmental and economic outcomes remains poorly defined across different contexts. We reviewed the literature and examined data from 277 sites, primarily in New Zealand, regarding the merits of

Biological invasions: a global assessment of geographic distributions, long‐term trends, and data gaps

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2542-2583, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions are one of the major drivers of biodiversity decline and have been shown to have far‐reaching consequences for society and the economy. Preventing the introduction and spread of alien species represents the most effective solution to reducing their impacts on nature and human well‐being.

Radial Growth and Wood Density Reflect the Impacts and Susceptibility to Defoliation by Gypsy Moth and Climate in Radiata Pine

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Drought stress causes a reduction in tree growth and forest productivity, which could be aggravated by climate warming and defoliation due to moth outbreaks.

Carbon allocation dynamics one decade after afforestation with Pinus radiata D. Don and Betula alba L. under two stand densities in NW Spain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Silvopastoral systems can contribute to the mitigation of climate change by functioning as sinks for greenhouse gases better than exclusively agricultural systems.

The use of adjuvants to improve uptake of phosphorous acid applied to Pinus radiata needles for control of foliar Phytophthora diseases

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Forestry Science, 2014
BackgroundPhosphorous acid is being investigated as a fungicide for the management of a needle disease caused by Phytophthora pluvialis in Pinus radiata in New Zealand. However, little is known about the penetration characteristics of this fungicide into

Transcriptomic and enzymological evidence for plastid peptidoglycan synthesis in the gymnosperm Picea abies

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 124, Issue 5, December 2025.
Significance Statement Peptidoglycan (murein) biosynthesis is involved in chloroplast division in mosses, while Arabidopsis MurE mutants are defective in chloroplast development. We have shown that the gymnosperm Picea abies expresses 11 genes of the peptidoglycan biosynthesis pathway, and that P.

Leaf area and growth of Chilean radiata pine plantations after thinning across a water stress gradient

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Forestry Science, 2018
Background Pinus radiata D.Don has been established in a wide range of soils and climatic conditions, showing high variability in both leaf area and volume productivity. Previous research has shown that plantation yield is affected by water availability,
