Radial Growth and Wood Density Reflect the Impacts and Susceptibility to Defoliation by Gypsy Moth and Climate in Radiata Pine [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 Drought stress causes a reduction in tree growth and forest productivity, which could be aggravated by climate warming and defoliation due to moth outbreaks.

Genomic selection for non-key traits in radiata pine when the documented pedigree is corrected using DNA marker information [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2019 Background Non-key traits (NKTs) in radiata pine (Pinus radiata D. Don) refer to traits other than growth, wood density and stiffness, but still of interest to breeders.

Effect of the Longitudinal Tensile Creep on the Stiffness of Radiata Pine (Pinus radiata D. Don). [PDF]
Materials (Basel), 2022 The influence of load on the cellulose microfibrils of single cells or thin wood foils is known. It can decrease the cellulose microfibril angles and, in turn, increase the stiffness. However, this modification of a piece of wood, which is made up of multiple cells, is unknown.

Amino acid biostimulant increases radiata pine photosynthetic efficiency and growth with shifts in mycobiome and nitrogen assimilation [PDF]
Environmental MicrobiomeBackground Amino-acid biostimulants have emerged as powerful alternatives to conventional inorganic nitrogen fertilisers, yet their potential in forestry species like radiata pine (Pinus radiata) remains largely unexplored.

Improvement of non-key traits in radiata pine breeding programme when long-term economic importance is uncertain. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Diameter at breast height (DBH), wood density (DEN) and predicted modulus of elasticity (PME) are considered as 'key traits' (KT) in the improvement in radiata pine breeding programmes in New Zealand.

Densified radiata pine for structural composites [PDF]
Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2014 A novel wood-based composite has been developed for use in structural applications. The process was designed to utilize rapidly-grown, low density, wood species. Plantation grown radiata pine is particularly well suited to this process.

Differential Impact of the Pinewood Nematode on Pinus Species Under Drought Conditions
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 The pinewood nematode (PWN), Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, responsible for the pine wilt disease (PWD), is a major threat to pine forests worldwide. Since forest mortality due to PWN might be exacerbated by climate, the concerns regarding PWD in the ...

Early Selection of Radiata Pine [PDF]
Silvae Genetica, 2006 Abstract Additive genetic, dominance genetic and phenotypic variances and corresponding correlations were estimated for growth data collected from disconnected half-diallel progeny trials involving 25 Pinus radiata D. DON parents and replicated across two sites in central North Island, New Zealand. Sectional area of stem was measured at
