The Relationship of Forest Fragmentation to Scots Pine Forest Mortality

Land
Forest mortality (FM) is influenced by several independent factors, including forest fragmentation (FF) at different spatial scales and multi-scales, site conditions, and stand characteristics.

Basic density and crown parameters of forest forming species within Steppe zone in Ukraine

Folia Oecologica, 2018
The parameters of wood density (WD), bark density (BD) and tree crown characteristics are not only important for estimation of the aboveground biomass, but they also serve as indicators for the timber quality. This study had two objectives: Black locust (

Fertile Soils Increase Susceptibility of Pinus sylvestris to Cronartium pini

Forest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Cronartium pini, Scots pine blister rust, is a rust fungus that has caused severe damage in both old and young Scots pine (P. sylvestris) forest stands in northern Fennoscandia. To understand the many drivers of these outbreaks we examined putative factors and their explanatory power of C.

Long‐Term Effects of Biochar Addition on Diameter Growth in Young Established Boreal Scots Pine Stands

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 10, October 2026.
Biochar application on top of the soil can be successful in already established and naturally regenerated boreal forest stands. Biochar tends to increase diameter and basal area growth. Increasing biochar dose enhanced growth response. Biochar induced growth response diminished 5 years after application.

Replacing Scots pine with Norway spruce [PDF]

, 2019
The production forests of southern Sweden are mainly dominated by either Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) or Norway spruce (Picea abies). Public concerns are now being raised regarding a decrease in the area on which Scots pine is being regenerated, and ...

Are novel and co‐xenic associations common in alien fungal and fungus‐like plant pathogens?

New Phytologist, Volume 252, Issue 2, Page 843-860, October 2026.
Possible scenarios for plant–pathogen associations during invasion. An introduced plant may occur in a new area without its pathogen (enemy release) or together with its pathogen (co‐introduction). The presence of the alien plant (in red) and its co‐introduced pathogen (in dark red) can result in pathogen spillover to co‐occurring plants. Host jumps to

Ectomycorrhizal Cortinariaceae species dominate class II peroxidase gene expression in a boreal forest soil

New Phytologist, Volume 252, Issue 1, Page 400-413, October 2026.
Share of transcripts and ITS2 sequence for each gene families among identified fungal contigs and OTUs. Summary Boreal forest ecosystems constitute a large terrestrial reservoir of carbon. In these nitrogen‐limited environments, release of nutrients through decomposition of soil organic matter is of fundamental importance.

Thermotolerance thresholds of the photosystem II increase with elevation in conifer species in the Spanish Pyrenees

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 6, Page 2142-2146, October 2026.
In vitro‐tested photosystem II thermotolerance of seven temperate conifers indicated higher thermal thresholds in species growing in high elevations compared to those in the lowlands. Higher thermotolerance might be explained by the adaptation of species in higher elevations to extreme diurnal temperature fluctuations.

Comparing Scots pine tree-ring proxies and detrending methods among sites in Jamtland, west-central Scandinavia

, 2010
Scots pine tree-ring width (TRW) data from Jamtland in the Central Scandinavian Mountains has been used to reconstruct summer temperatures back to 1630 BC. However, it was recently shown that this reconstruction was of limited spatial importance. In this

Visual and Machine Strength Gradings of Scots and Red Pine Structural Timber Pieces from Türkiye

BioResources
Scots (Pinus sylvestris L.) and red pine (Pinus brutia Ten.) structural timbers (540 pieces) from Türkiye were first visually graded according to TS 1265 (2012). Then, non-destructive tests were conducted using vibration and time of flight (ToF) methods,
