Response of Soil Bacteria of Dicranopteris dichotoma Populations to Vegetation Restoration in Red Soil Region of China
Dicranopteris dichotoma (D. dichotoma) is a monodominant community in different vegetation restoration stages, in order to reveal the response of the soil bacterial community and physicochemical properties of the...

Open AccessIntraspecific variations in leaf functional traits of Cunninghamia lanceolata provenances
Studies on intra-specific variability in leaf functional traits is important to evaluate adaptation of the species to predicted climate change, and to develop long-term conservation strategy. The main objectiv...

Genetic diversity and population structure of Pinus halepensis Mill. in Jordan revealed by simple sequence repeats
Pinus halepensis populations in Jordan maintained a moderate level of genetic diversity with considerable intra-population than inter-population differentiation due to long-distance zygotic and gametic gene flows...

Open AccessTranscriptome analysis provides insights into the root response of Chinese fir to phosphorus deficiency
Phosphorus is one of the essential elements for plant growth and development, but available phosphorus (Pi) content in many soil types is low. As a fast-growing tree species for timber production, Chinese fir ...

Open AccessStrength and size of phosphorus-rich patches determine the foraging strategy of Neyraudia reynaudiana
Under natural conditions, soil nutrients are heterogeneously distributed, and plants have developed adaptation strategies to efficiently forage patchily distributed nutrient. Most previous studies examined eit...

Open AccessResponses of leaf morphology, NSCs contents and C:N:P stoichiometry of Cunninghamia lanceolata and Schima superba to shading
The non-structural carbohydrates (NSCs), carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) are important energy source or nutrients for all plant growth and metabolism. To persist in shaded understory, saplings hav...

Calcium-mediated adaptive responses to low phosphorus stress in Chinese fir
Ca2+ induces adaptive response to low P stress through increased root growth and expansion, but plays minor or no role in remobilization of P in leaf tissues or in maintaining membrane integrity.

Does phosphorus deficiency induce formation of root cortical aerenchyma maintaining growth of Cunninghamia lanceolata?
Phosphorous (P) deficiency induces root cortical aerenchyma (RCA) formation in Chinese fir seedlings with marked genotypic variation, and the adaptive role of RCA is mainly related to root P reduction.

Gaseous NO2 effects on stomatal behavior, photosynthesis and respiration of hybrid poplar leaves
In this study, we used poplar as a model plant and investigated the effects of gaseous nitrogen dioxide (NO2, 4 µl 1−1) on stomatal conductance, photosynthesis, dark- and photorespiration of Populus alba × Populu...

Inter- and intra-provenances variations in seed size and seedling characteristics of Khaya senegalensis A. Juss in Burkina Faso
Within- and between-provenance variations in seed and seedling traits of Khaya senegalensis A. Juss were studied at INERA in Burkina Faso. Nursery grown seedlings from four provenances in Burkina Faso were used ...

Variations in dendrometric and fruiting characters of Vitellaria paradoxa populations and multivariate models for estimation of fruit yield
The fruit of Vitellaria paradoxa is an ideal raw material in cosmetic, pharmaceutical and confectionery industries. There are no accurate data on annual fruit yield due to the lack of objective assessment tools. ...

Identification of seed sources and parents of Pinus sylvestris L. using visible–near infrared reflectance spectra and multivariate analysis
The potential of visible (VIS) and near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy for identifying seed sources and parents of Pinus sylvestris L. was studied. Seeds of a single family (clones AC1005 × BD1178) collected from th...
