Phenolic and volatile compounds in Quercus humboldtii Bonpl. wood: effect of toasting with respect to oaks traditionally used in cooperage [PDF]
AbstractBACKGROUNDThe most frequent renewal of barrels of different origins and species is a current trend, but this demand does not match the current availability of wood. An alternative could be the use of Quercus humboldtii wood. However, there is little information about its composition.

Abstract Few conservation studies have been done with Agaricales fungi (mushrooms) of the Andes and conservation areas created in many countries have no priorities in protecting fungi. Small areas can be also very important to preserve rare and unknown fungi species, but evaluations are still needed.

The Andean forest is a high diversity ecosystem. These forests are negatively affected by anthropogenic pressures that have greatly increased wildfires. Wildfires may increase species susceptibility to other disturbances like insect pests. Little is known of these ecosystems, their responses to wildfires, or their interactions with other disturbances ...

Bee pollen as non-wood forest product in the eastern Andean highlands of Colombia
The Andean forests of the Eastern Andean high-lands of Colombia have a high conservation priority given the vulnerable condition of species such as Quercus humboldtii (Fagaceae) that inhabit these ecosystems.

Summary Global change is reshaping Earth's biodiversity, but the changing distributions of nonpathogenic fungi remain largely undocumented, as do mechanisms enabling invasions. The ectomycorrhizal Amanita phalloides is native to Europe and invasive in North America.

Variable thermal plasticity of leaf functional traits in Andean tropical montane forests
Abstract Tropical montane forests (TMFs) are biodiversity hotspots and provide vital ecosystem services, but they are disproportionately vulnerable to climate warming. In the Andes, cold‐affiliated species from high elevations are being displaced at the hot end of their thermal distributions by warm‐affiliated species migrating upwards from lower ...

Initial development of andean oak in response to management in nursery and at planting
The establishment of plantations of Quercus humboldtii is required for the development of oak restoration programs and for commercial reforestation. In this work the effect of nursery management (relative lighting and fertilization), the characteristics ...
