WOOD ANATOMY OF THE BLAKEEAE (MELASTOMATACEAE) [PDF]
The present paper deals with the wood anatomy of the Blakeeae (Melastomataceae). Generic descriptions of the secondary xylem of Blakea, Topobea, and Huilaea are given and compared with data on 16 genera of the Miconieae. Numerical pattern detection was undertaken. The results confirm our preliminary ideas that Blakea and Topobea do not differ enough to

Effects of Wood Hydraulic Properties on Water Use and Productivity of Tropical Rainforest Trees
The efficiency of the water transport system in trees sets physical limits to their productivity and water use. Although the coordination of carbon assimilation and hydraulic functions has long been documented, the mutual inter-relationships between wood

Wood chemical composition in species of Cactaceae: the relationship between lignification and stem morphology. [PDF]
In Cactaceae, wood anatomy is related to stem morphology in terms of the conferred support. In species of cacti with dimorphic wood, a unique process occurs in which the cambium stops producing wide-band tracheids (WBTs) and produces fibers; this is ...
