Nutrition Status of Trees on Spoil Heaps After Coal Mining Can Be Inferred From Seasonal Dynamics of Foliar Nutrient Concentrations

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A stable vegetation cover on given habitat conditions can be one of the possible requirements for post‐mining sites, as it can prevent erosion and dustiness of these anthropogenic surfaces and bring several practical future benefits, such as biomass production and microclimate improvement.

Identification of the xyloglucan endotransglycosylase/hydrolase genes and the role of PagXTH12 in drought resistance in poplar

Forestry Research
The xyloglucan endotransglycosylase/hydrolase (XTH) gene family plays a crucial role in plant cell wall remodeling, facilitating growth and structural changes.

Functional diversity in agricultural landscapes: evidence of long‐term clustering and multi‐scale effects of land use on avian communities

Oikos, EarlyView.
Functional diversity (FD) is an essential community property connecting biodiversity, ecosystem functioning, and conservation objectives. In agricultural landscapes, avian communities, which play key functional roles, are facing large‐scale biodiversity erosion, largely due to land‐use changes.

A protocol for identifying universal reference genes within a genus based on RNA-Seq data: a case study of poplar stem gene expression

Forestry Research
Real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) plays a crucial role in relative gene expression analysis, and accurate normalization relies on suitable reference genes (RGs).

Seasonal variation of leaf functional traits in sub‐Arctic plants

Oikos, EarlyView.
Leaf functional traits are informative of plant fitness and functions in ecosystems. These functional traits and their variation across geographic extents are much studied but less is known about their temporal variation over a growing season. Here, we provide an analysis of the seasonal variation in six leaf functional traits of 11 sub‐Arctic vascular

Ectopic expression of TTP gene from human in poplar promotes xylem differentiation and confers plant drought tolerance

Forestry Research
The CCCH zinc finger proteins play critical roles in a wide variety of growth, development, and stress responses. Currently, limited reports are available about the roles of animal CCCH proteins in plants.

End-use related physical and mechanical properties of selected fast-growing poplar hybrids (Populus trichocarpa x P-deltoides) [PDF]

, 2007
This study focused on physical and mechanical properties of fast-growing poplar clones in relation to potential end uses with high added value. A total of 14 trees from three different clones, all P.

The missing woodland story: Implications of 1700 years of stand‐scale change on ‘naturalness’ and managing remnant broadleaved woodlands

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Longer‐term perspectives—equivalent to the lifespans of long‐lived trees—are required to fully inform perceptions of ‘naturalness’ used in woodland conservation and management. Stand‐scale dynamics of an old growth temperate woodland are reconstructed using palaeoecological data.
