Characterization of 20 new EST-SSR markers for northern red oak (Quercus rubra L.) and their transferability to Fagus sylvatica L. and six oak species of section Lobatae and Quercus

open access: yesAnnals of Forest Research, 2019
Northern red oak (Quercus rubra L.) is widely distributed in the eastern United States and southeastern Canada. It has also been introduced to Europe, where it has become an economically important plantation species now. Despite growing genomic resources,

Employing a Hysteresis Approach to Analyze Shifts in Tree Physiological Thresholds in Response to Drought

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought‐induced tree mortality underscores the need for improved physiological models to predict tree responses to water stress. We employed a hysteresis modelling approach analyzing diel water absorption and desorption cycles to understand drought‐induced shifts in physiological thresholds.

Provenance legacies override species effects in shaping oak rhizosphere microbiomes and metabolomes

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 1, Page 488-504, July 2026.
Graphical representation of experimental setup. Quercus spp. seeds were collected at two origins: upper Rhine basin (URB) and north German lowland (NGL). Summary As climate change drives more frequent drought‐heat extremes, selecting drought‐tolerant trees is crucial for future forest resilience. However, the role of tree–microbial associations remains

Land Models Likely Underestimate the Impact of Future Atmospheric Dryness on European Tree Growth

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract Understanding how the land carbon sink will be altered by climate change is critical for projecting future atmospheric CO2 concentrations under different emission pathways in Earth System Models (ESMs). Most land models assume that woody growth, the main driver of land carbon storage, is driven by photosynthetic carbon supply.

Whole-genome screening for near-diagnostic genetic markers for four western European white oak species identification

open access: yesAnnals of Forest Science
Key message Mining genome-wide DNA sequences enabled the discovery of near-diagnostic markers for species assignment in four European white oaks (Quercus petraea (Matt.) Liebl., Quercus pubescens Willd., Quercus pyrenaica Willd., and Quercus robur L ...

OakEcol: A database of Oak-associated biodiversity within the UK

open access: yesData in Brief, 2019
Globally there is increasing concern about the decline in the health of oak Quercus trees. The impact of a decline in oak trees on associated biodiversity, species that utilize oak trees, is unknown.

Razdioba populacija hrasta kitnjaka (Quercus petraea (Matt.) Liebl) u Bosni i Hercegovini pomoću kloroplastne DNK (cpDNK) i njezina primjena u šumarstvu

open access: yesGlasnik Šumarskog Fakulteta Univerziteta u Banjoj Luci, 2007
Genetička varijabilnost hrasta kinjaka (Quercus petraea) istraživana je analiziranjem cpDNA, uz uporabu AFLP tehnike. Određena je haplotipska pripadnost 16 populacija.

Flowering and Flower Maturation in Valley Oak Quercus lobata

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
We investigated the factors influencing flower production both among years and among individual trees of the valley oak Quercus lobata. Among years, weather conditions, particularly winter rainfall, drive female flower production, while among trees, male and female flowers were positively correlated, countering the hypothesis of a life‐history trade ...

Variation in wood density between mature sessile oak and English oak trees growing in different vegetation zones

open access: yesJournal of Forest Science
Wood density is a fundamental functional trait influencing ecological adaptation, hydraulic safety, and timber utilisation in temperate hardwoods. This study investigated variation in wood density (12% moisture) across mature stands of two economically ...

Differences in leaf morphology between Quercus petraea and Q. robur adult and young individuals

open access: yesSilva Fennica, 2008
The characters of Quercus robur and Q. petraea leaves are of main taxonomic value and the adult trees of both species can be distinguished on them. However, young individuals, mostly seedlings but also saplings, are told to be undistinguishable or ...
