Family 34 glycosyltransferase (GT34) genes and proteins in Pinus radiata (radiata pine) and Pinus taeda (loblolly pine) [PDF]

The Plant Journal, 2014
SummaryUsing a functional genomics approach, four candidate genes (PtGT34A, PtGT34B, PtGT34C and PtGT34D) were identified in Pinus taeda. These genes encode CAZy family GT34 glycosyltransferases that are involved in the synthesis of cell‐wall xyloglucans and heteromannans.

Is co‐existence and/or containment of genetically modified plants possible, and is it important?

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 68, Issue 6, Page 1329-1380, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Co‐existence and containment of genetically modified (GM) plants has been a contentious issue since GM technologies were first commercially released in the mid‐1990s. In the first decade of commercial GM plant use, there were a significant number of contamination incidents resulting from GM presence in non‐GM crops and seed, some with a ...

Are native shrubs a sustainable alternative to radiata pine on steep slopes? Insights using bioeconomic model for hill country farms in New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 68, Issue 7, Page 2207-2232, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Limited data on native shrubs has hindered direct comparisons with pine radiata as afforestation options for steep slopes on New Zealand hill country sheep and beef farms. This study updated a native shrub sub‐model (NSM) with new research data and developed a radiata pine sub‐model (RPM) for integration into a bioeconomic model using STELLA ...

Landslide preparation by forestry activity in a region of high erosion rates: Waingake Landslide, northeast New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 68, Issue 5, Page 1015-1030, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Northeastern New Zealand’s sedimentary rocks and soils are particularly vulnerable to landsliding, with some of the highest specific sediment yields, globally. In addition to earthquakes, rainfall is considered an important landslide triggering process.

Detection and Genetic Mapping of Quantitative Trait Loci Influencing Stem Growth Efficiency in Radiata Pine [PDF]

, 1997
Needle-to-stem unit rate (NESTUR) is a stem growth index of conifer seedling trees that measures the efficiency of stemwood production per unit of needle growth.

Biological invasions: a global assessment of geographic distributions, long‐term trends, and data gaps

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2542-2583, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions are one of the major drivers of biodiversity decline and have been shown to have far‐reaching consequences for society and the economy. Preventing the introduction and spread of alien species represents the most effective solution to reducing their impacts on nature and human well‐being.
