Determinant factors for epiphyte-phorophyte interactions in patches of cloud forest within a matrix of campos rupestres [PDF]
The epiphytic flora is influenced by the architecture and morpho-physiology of phorophytes. Our knowledge about the ecology of these communities remains limited, especially in the campos rupestres.

The quantitative compositions of the major constitutive diterpenoids in the rhytidome and secondary phloem of the branch bark of Kuril larch (Larix gmelinii var. japonica) were investigated. The eight major diterpenoids were isolated from a diethyl ether extract of the branch bark of L. gmelinii var.

Production of added value bacterial lipids through valorisation of hydrocarbon-contaminated cork waste [PDF]
This work demonstrates that cork used as oil-spill sorbents, contaminated with liquid hydrocarbons, herein demonstrated with hexadecane, can be biologically treated by Rhodococcus opacus B4 with concomitant lipids production. R.

Tissue‐specific study across the stem reveals the chemistry and transcriptome dynamics of birch bark
Summary Tree bark is a highly specialized array of tissues that plays important roles in plant protection and development. Bark tissues develop from two lateral meristems; the phellogen (cork cambium) produces the outermost stem–environment barrier called the periderm, while the vascular cambium contributes with phloem tissues. Although bark is diverse

Post-fire resprouting strategies of woody vegetation in the Brazilian savanna [PDF]
Post-fi re response by vegetation may refl ect the severity of the damage suff ered, but we still know little about the species-specifi c nature of responses to fi re or their predictors. Here, we evaluated 26 woody species before and after a fi re event

The Making of Plant Armor : The Periderm [PDF]
The periderm acts as armor protecting the plant's inner tissues from biotic and abiotic stress. It forms during the radial thickening of plant organs such as stems and roots and replaces the function of primary protective tissues such as the epidermis ...
