Serbian spruce (Picea omorika (Pančić) Purkyné) - endemicity and advantages
Conifers, as a response to mechanical stress, such as wind and stem lean, form reaction wood called compression wood (CW). CW occurs in a range of gradations from near normal wood (NW) to severe CW (SCW). As the severity of CW affects the mechanical and chemical properties of wood, and as CW has limited value in the forest products industry, it is ...

Impact of Mixing on the Structural Diversity of Serbian Spruce and Macedonian Pine Endemic to Relict Forest Communities in the Balkan Peninsula [PDF]
The aim of this paper is to analyze the effect of different degrees of mixing on the diversity structure in stands left to spontaneous development. The research included two communities of species endemic to the Balkan Peninsula—the Serbian spruce (Picea omorika Pančić Purk.) and the Macedonian pine (Pinus peuce Griseb).

Tailoring conservation to suit Serbian spruce
Mediterranean forest tree species are particularly sensitive to the global climate warming, and two Mediterranean conifers, Sicilian fir and Serbian spruce, stand out as currently the most threatened ones due to their extremely narrow distribution range. Both species are IUCN-red listed and protected by the law.
