The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region and trnH-psbA [corrected] are suitable candidate loci for DNA barcoding of tropical tree species of India. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
DNA barcoding as a tool for species identification has been successful in animals and other organisms, including certain groups of plants. The exploration of this new tool for species identification, particularly in tree species, is very scanty from ...

Breeding Systems of Tree Species of a Lowland Tropical Community [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution, 1974
Little information is available on the breeding systems of tropical forest trees. Yet a knowledge of reproductive methods is essential for an understanding of the patterns of gene flow and genetic differentiation within and between populations. Such information, in turn, is fundamental to an understanding of speciation and the genetic relationships ...

Vegetation structure and biodiversity recovery in 19-year-old active restoration plantations in a Neotropical cloud forest

open access: yesForest Systems, 2021
Aim of the study: To evaluate how middle-aged active restoration plantations of native tree species contribute to the recovery of the tropical cloud forest in terms of vegetation structure, tree richness, species composition, and to shade-tolerance and ...

Limited thermal acclimation of photosynthesis in tropical montane tree species [PDF]

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, 2021
AbstractThe temperature sensitivity of physiological processes and growth of tropical trees remains a key uncertainty in predicting how tropical forests will adjust to future climates. In particular, our knowledge regarding warming responses of photosynthesis, and its underlying biochemical mechanisms, is very limited. We grew seedlings of two tropical

Endophytic Fungal Species in Tropical Trees: A Review

open access: yesJournal of Tropical Forestry and Environment, 2022
Pathogenic fungi are common in forest ecosystems which cause diseases and sometimes death of plants, while some fungi live inside trees harmlessly without causing issues. Sometimes, plants benefit from the presence of those endophytic fungi, such as gaining resistance to environmental stresses, protection from harmful pathogens etc.

Ilex decapetala (Aquifoliaceae), a new holly species from Vietnam revealed by molecular and morphological approaches [PDF]

open access: yesPhytoKeys
A new species, Ilex decapetala, is described and illustrated from central Vietnam. It is distinguished by its female flowers with (8–)9–10(–11) pink petals (mostly 10); such a high floral merism is rare within the genus and, on top of this rarity, no ...

Systematic review and meta-analysis reveals functional traits and climate are good predictors of tropical tree water use

open access: yesTrees, Forests and People, 2022
Hydrological and vegetation models, with the help of various micro-meteorological methods, are widely used to calculate water fluxes. Correctly estimating these fluxes requires accurate transpiration measurements. Tree water use is known to be influenced

Spatial patterns in species-rich sclerophyll shrublands of southwestern Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Question: The drivers of spatial patterning among plant species and the implications of those patterns for the structure and function of plant communities are of ongoing interest and debate.
