Application of genetic markers to the discrimination of European Black Poplar ( Populus nigra ) from American Black Poplar ( P. deltoides ) and Hybrid Poplars ( P. x canadensis ) in Switzerland [PDF]
, 2018 European Black Poplar (Populus nigra) is considered a rare and endangered tree species because of severe reduction of its natural riverine habitat and potential hybridisation with the related non-indigenous taxa P. deltoides and P. x canadensis. As it is

Tree regeneration responds more to shade casting by the overstorey and competition in the understorey than to abundance per se [PDF]
, 2019 Manipulating the overstorey is the key tool for forest managers to steer natural regeneration. Opening up the canopy does not only create favourable light conditions for tree seedling growth, but also for (competitive) understorey species.

The Chemical Record, Volume 26, Issue 3, March 2026.Tubular pyrolysis synthesis is a widespread method to produce activated carbons (ACs). This review focuses on the different controlling parameters of the tubular pyrolysis synthesis method and their influence on the performance of synthesized ACs, thereby considering both experimental aspects and the use of plant‐based biomasses (PBBs) as feedstock ...

AFLP analysis and improved phytoextraction capacity of transgenic gshI-poplar clones (Populus canescens L.) in vitro [PDF]
, 2005 Clone stability and in vitro phytoextraction capacity of vegetative clones of R x canescens (2n = 4x = 38) including two transgenic clones (ggs11 and lgl6) were studied as in vitro leaf disc cultures.

Mapping the next forest generation reveals multiple regeneration gaps across German forests
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 3, March 2026.Our study provides the first nationwide, high‐resolution assessment of forest regeneration, offering a valuable baseline for monitoring forest development. The regeneration density and indicator maps enable forest managers and policymakers to identify regeneration deficits, prioritise adaptive management interventions and contribute to the development ...

Impact of river management history on the community structure, species composition and nutrient status in the Rhine alluvial hardwood forest [PDF]
, 1998 The present-day Rhine alluvial hardwood forest (Querco-Ulmetum minoris, Issler 24) in the upper Rhine valley (France/Germany) is comprised of three vegetation units, one still flooded by calm waters (F) and the two others unflooded, one for 30 years ...

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT Forest trees and their hybrids exhibit diverse adaptive strategies, reflected in functional traits that enhance fitness under varying biotic and abiotic stresses. Hybrid zones serve as natural experiments for studying evolutionary processes and have also garnered attention for their relevance in adaptive nature conservation and forest ...

Jumping plant-lice of the Paurocephalinae (Insecta, Hemiptera, Psylloidea): systematics and phylogeny [PDF]
, 2003 Much confusion exists with respect to the content and definition of the psyUid subfamily Paurocephalinae. Based on a cladistic analysis of 22 morphological characters (16 adult and 6 larval), the subfamily is redefined to comprise the following five ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1377-1397, March 2026.ABSTRACT Narrow or upright branch angles in shoots and leaves lead to columnar, upright‐growing tree architectures, as observed in various tree species such as Lombardy poplar (Populus nigra var. italica). However, the genetic mechanism underlying this unique growth habit in Lombardy poplar has not yet been elucidated.
