Rhytidome- and cork-type barks of holm oak, cork oak and their hybrids highlight processes leading to cork formation
BackgroundThe periderm is basic for land plants due to its protective role during radial growth, which is achieved by the polymers deposited in the...

How do soil and topographic drivers determine tree diameter spatial distribution in even aged cork oak stands installed in average to high productivity areas
Local terrain or microsite conditions influence the development of trees, particularly at early ages. These conditions might be described by edaphic...

Genotypic and genetic diversity of Maâmora’s cork oak forest using simple sequence repeats (SSR) and inter simple sequence repeats (ISSR) markers for conservation
Maâmora is a cork oak forest in Morocco known for its production of sweet acorns. Genetic diversity and relationships were evaluated in 240...

Variation of cork porosity along the stem in harvested cork oak (Quercus suber L.) trees
Key message Cork porosity, due to lenticular channels, varied along the stem of
Quercus suber L. Lenticular channels’ area, rather than their number,...

Occurrence of Biscogniauxia mediterranea in cork oak stands in Tunisia
Cork oak decline and mortality are increasingly prevalent in the Mediterranean basin. This require particular attention due to the great economic...
