Serbian Spruce is as Vulnerable as Sitka Spruce to Damage by the Sitka Spruce Weevil
Western Journal of Applied Forestry, 1992Abstract Serbian spruce (Picea omorika) was first damaged naturally by the Sitka spruce weevil (Pissodes strobi) at about 15 years of age in an area on Vancouver Island where this weevil commonly attacks Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis).

Serbian spruce, a narrow endemic, contains much genetic variation
Canadian Journal of Forest Research, 1991Serbian spruce (Piceaomorika (Pančić) Purk.) is reputedly a self-fertile and morphologically uniform species with a natural distribution restricted to a total area of less than 60 ha in central Yugoslavia. This has led to the conclusion that the species lacks genetic variation. In this study, genetic variation at 19 enzyme loci was investigated in two

Needle oil terpenes of Serbian spruce from three localities
Holz als Roh- und Werkstoff, 1993The volatile oils from needles of Serbian spruce from two localities in Serbia outside of the native range and one locality from Germany (Hamburg) were determined to have the same terpene pattern, with bornyl acetate as the major component.

Transversal stress wave velocity in the tree of Serbian spruce (Picea omorika (Pančić) Purkyně)
Sustainable Forestry: Collection, 2022In this paper, transversal stress wave velocity was measured in 30 trees of Serbian spruce (Picea omorika /Pančić/ Purk.) using a 2D sonic tomograph. Tomograms were analyzed and speed loss and average speed for Serbian spruce were calculated. Since there is no reference value for this species, in this research the reference value for stress wave ...

Cryopreservation of embryogenic tissues of Picea omorika (Serbian spruce)
Plant Cell, Tissue and Organ Culture (PCTOC), 2010Two-year-old embryogenic tissues (ET) of Picea omorika (Pancic) Purk. were successfully cryopreserved after preculture with sucrose, air-drying for 2 h, and freezing in liquid nitrogen (LN). The preculture protocol consisted of passaging the ET onto standard Litvay medium containing increasing concentrations of sucrose (0.25 M sucrose for 24 h, 0.5 M ...

Serbian Spruce and Climate Change: Possible Outcomes and Conservation Strategy
2018Serbian spruce is an old, relict and currently rare and endangered spruce species particularly susceptible to climate change that attracts a lot of attention in the academic community since its discovery in 1875. Today, Serbian spruce is limited to the area of ~100 km2 localized around the mid-course of the Drina River in the mountainous central ...

Genetic structure of a rare European conifer, Serbian spruce (Picea omorika (Panč.) Purk.)
Plant Systematics and Evolution, 2006Genetic variation in 13 populations of a Balkan endemic, Serbian spruce (Picea omorika (Pancˇ .) Purk.), was investigated using 16 isozyme loci. Serbian spruce is characterized by low levels of genetic variation (average proportion of polymorphic loci was 20.9% and average expected heterozygosity was 0.067).

Population genetic structure of the relict Serbian spruce, Picea omorika, inferred from plastid DNA
Plant Systematics and Evolution, 2007We used paternally inherited chloroplast microsatellites (cpSSR) to study population genetic structure in the endemic and highly restricted Serbian spruce Picea omorika. Fragment size polymorphism at the five cpSSR regions that could be amplified out of the nine tested combined into only four different haplotypes in the seven populations studied.
