Tissue‐specific study across the stem reveals the chemistry and transcriptome dynamics of birch bark
New Phytologist, Volume 222, Issue 4, Page 1816-1831, June 2019., 2019 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

Aiouea affinis (Lauraceae): A New Tree Species From the Brazilian Atlantic Rainforest
Feddes Repertorium, Volume 137, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT Aiouea is a Neotropical genus of Lauraceae currently comprising ca. 85 species. Descriptions of new taxa have been frequent in recent years, particularly in Brazil, which currently hosts 35 species, 24 of them being endemic. Based on a review of herbarium material and recent collections, we propose a new species, Aiouea affinis, named for its ...

International Journal of Forestry Research, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016 We studied bark thickness in the mixed‐conifer forest type throughout California. Sampling included eight conifer species and covered latitude and elevation gradients. The thickness of tree bark at 1.37 m correlated with diameter at breast height (DBH) and varied among species.

Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2004 The influence of habit form on progeny growth was studied within the evaluation of the height growth of curly birch hybrid progenies. In all years 1998, 1999 and 2001 statistically significant differences in height were found between progenies in ...

Caatinga Revisited: Ecology and Conservation of an Important Seasonal Dry Forest
The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 Besides its extreme climate conditions, the Caatinga (a type of tropical seasonal forest) hosts an impressive faunal and floristic biodiversity. In the last 50 years there has been a considerable increase in the number of studies in the area. Here we aimed to present a review of these studies, focusing on four main fields: vertebrate ecology, plant ...

Forest Pathology, Volume 55, Issue 5, October 2025.ABSTRACT Larch (Larix) and, to a lesser extent, rhododendron (Rhododendron ponticum) have emerged as key drivers of the Phytophthora ramorum epidemic in Britain because of the copious numbers of sporangia that are released from their foliage following infection; the inoculum then initiates stem and foliar infections on nearby broadleaf and conifer ...

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 4, July–August 2025.Despite the widespread use of metabarcoding approaches in wood‐inhabiting fungal studies, there is currently no standardized procedure for sampling deadwood. Our methodological study supports that to gain a representative view of the fungal community composition in early decay‐stage deadwood, bark should be included in fungal surveys and that ...
