Can ectomycorrhizal colonization ofPinus resinosaroots affect their decomposition? [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2011 In many forest ecosystems, fine root litter comprises a large pool of organic carbon and nutrients. In temperate climates ectomycorrhizal fungi colonize the roots of many forest plant species. If ectomycorrhizal colonization influenced root decomposition, it could significantly influence carbon sequestration and nutrient cycling.

Chloroplast microsatellites: measures of genetic diversity and the effect of homoplasy [PDF]
, 2005 Chloroplast microsatellites have been widely used in population genetic studies of conifers in recent years. However, their haplotype configurations suggest that they could have high levels of homoplasy, thus limiting the power of these molecular markers.

Conditions conducive to an epidemic of Gremmeniella abietina, European race, in red pine plantations
Journal of Forest Science, 2015 In North America, Gremmeniella abietina, European race (GaEU), was reported in 1975. Our objective was to follow the spread of GaEU on red pines growing on flat land and on slope. Annual height infection varied significantly on flat land, ranging from 60
