Biogeography of Bursaphelenchus Species Driven by Climate, Vectors and Hosts: Implications for Forest Pathology Under Climate Change

Forest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Wood‐inhabiting nematodes of the genus Bursaphelenchus are a group with significant ecological and economic impacts on global forest ecosystems. This review aims to update current knowledge on their spatial distribution, host‐vector associations and the factors driving species expansion under the framework of climate change.

Epidemiology of Diplodia Shoot Blight Outbreaks in Pine Forests After Hailstorm Events

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.
The analysis of Diplodia shoot blight outbreaks in pine stands following hailstorms showed that the disease seems to follow a monomolecular model, with 80% of canopy damage occurring within 40 days after the hail event. Low accumulated precipitation in the days preceding the hailstorm appeared to predispose stands to outbreaks.

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Neuroplastic Mechanisms of Acupuncture in Post‐Stroke Motor Recovery: A Randomized Multimodal MRI Trial

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
This randomized controlled trial found the true‐acupoint (TA) intervention to be superior to the sham‐acupoint (SA) intervention in improving motor recovery and neurological deficits post‐stroke. TA uniquely induces neuroplastic changes, evidenced by the modulation of default mode network dynamics and the promotion of gray matter plasticity in key ...

Constitutive and inducible oleoresin defenses share genetic architectures and mechanisms in Pinus taeda

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2966-2987, June 2026.
Summary The oleoresin defense system of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) protects trees from insects and pathogens and is an important source of renewable biofuels and chemicals, but the genetic basis of oleoresin production is poorly understood. We characterized the genetic architecture of oleoresin flow, resin canal number, stem wood terpene content, and ...

Bleaching of radiata pine Kraft pulp with the EnZone process

Journal of Biotechnology, 1995
Abstract Oxygen delignified Kraft pulps from radiata pine were treated with xylanase in the presence of a quelating agent prior to their chemical bleaching with the sequences WZEOPP, EPWZP and EOPWZP. Enzymes tested included Cartazyme from Sandoz, Ecopulp from Alko-ICI, Irgazyme 40 from Ciba-Genencor and Pulpzyme HB from Novo Nordisk.

Heat treatment of tunisian soft wood species: Effect on the durability, chemical modifications and mechanical properties

Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2015
Last decades, wood was promoted as building material. Wood heat treatment by mild pyrolysis has been reported to improve biological durability and dimensional stability of the material and constitutes an attractive « non biocidal » alternative to ...
