ABSTRACT Forest ecosystems play a critical role in the global carbon cycle. As a significant terrestrial carbon sink, plantations exhibit carbon stock patterns that are shaped by tree species composition, stand structure, and environmental conditions. Here, we investigated typical plantation types in the Mufu Mountain, Hubei Province.

Rootstocks for Florida Stone Fruit
Rootstocks have been used in many tree fruit systems to provide growth advantages and/or pest and disease resistance without affecting (or sometimes improving) productivity and fruit quality.

Begonia chunxiuensis, a new species of Begonia sect. Platycentrum (Begoniaceae) from Guangxi, China
Begonia chunxiuensis, a new species from Guangxi of China, is described and illustrated. It is morphologically similar to B. sinovietnamica and B. aurora, but differs from them by its narrowly triangular stipules, leaf blade that is adaxially green, dark green to viridian, pinkish‐white to white villous, but abaxially light green with red veins, red to

Molecular mechanisms associated with rootstock-scion interactions in rubber trees. [PDF]
Abstract Hevea brasiliensis (rubber tree) is the main source of natural rubber worldwide. In commercial plantations, high‐yield rubber tree clones are propagated by grafting onto seedling rootstocks. In this study, the transcriptomes of the RRIM 600 clone grafted on different rootstocks in southeastern Brazil were evaluated. Exclusively expressed genes

Assessment of the susceptibility to pests and diseases of 36 apple cultivars in four low-input organic orchards in France [PDF]
One of the keystones of the organic orchard is the cultivar choice as one element of pest and disease control. However, few exhaustive data sets concerning the cultivar susceptibility to pests and diseases are available for growers.

Pollen limitation, a decrease in seed production due to insufficient pollen receipt, may influence plant demography and the evolution of sexual systems. Its empirical estimation of pollen supplementation of some of the flowers on an individual is well known to be prone to overestimation due to potential resource reallocation among the individual's ...

Integration of biotechnologies for rubber tree improvement. What about rootstock clones ?
Breeding and dissemination of planting material for rubber plantations are closely linked to propagation methods. Since the progress made by shifting from multiplication by seed to propagation by budding, the development of new techniques, such as ...

Low nitrogen manuring increased yield in high-density organic apple production [PDF]
Yield, fruit quality and infections of diseases are determined by many production factors in the orchard. Water and nutrition supply, the choice of rootstock, planting density and control of diseases and pest are ...

Sedum zhenghaianum (Crassulaceae), a new species from Zhejiang and Jiangxi, East China
In this paper, Sedum zhenghaianum sp. nov. is described as a new species based on morphological and molecular analyses, and its taxonomic relationships are discussed. Morphological analysis indicates that S. zhenghaianum should be classified in the genus Sedum sect. Sedum and is distinct from the related species S. tosaense in morphology, e.g.
