Background: Despite the importance of Plathymenia reticulata for forestry and ecological purposes, a protocol for the vegetative propagation of the species remains unclear mainly due to the low adventitious rooting of the propagules of the species. In this sense, this work aimed to evaluate the rooting of minicuttings of juvenile materials of P. reticulata and our hypothesis: (1) maintaining propagules under mist chamber for different periods affects the rooting process; (2) the mini-stump management system due to the restriction of the root system affects the production of mini-cuttings and the quality of clonal seedlings. Results: It was not necessary for more than 30 days in a mist chamber to induce rooting. The highest percentage of rooting was obtained 50 days after staking. Mini-gardens set up in suspended seedbed and tubes (280 cm 3 ) had the average mini-cuttings productivity of 4.32 and 2.06, respectively, over 270 days of exploration (monthly collections). At 120 days after staking, there was no difference in the survival and in the final quality of clonal seedlings produced. However, clonal seedlings from minigarden in tubes had higher height, leaf area, and number of first-order roots. Regardless of the minigarden management, the clonal seedling production index was 50%. Conclusion: We can conclude that P. reticulata seedling production via mini-cutting technique is possible.
背景:尽管网状白腹在林业和生态方面具有重要意义,但由于其繁殖体不定根率低,该物种的无性繁殖方案尚不清楚。在此基础上,本研究旨在对网青苗苗材料的生根过程进行评价,并提出以下假设:(1)不同时期在雾室中维持繁殖体对生根过程有影响;(2)由于根系的限制,小桩管理制度影响了小插条的产量和无性系幼苗的质量。结果:在雾室中诱导生根不超过30天。生根率在生根后50 d达到最高。在280 cm 3的悬浮苗床和试管中设置的迷你花园,在270天的探索(每月收集)中,平均迷你插枝产量分别为4.32和2.06。在木桩后120天,克隆苗的存活率和最终质量没有差异。而管培园无性系幼苗的株高、叶面积和一级根数均高于管培园无性系幼苗。在不同的迷你园管理下,无性系幼苗生产指数均为50%。结论:利用微切技术育苗是可行的。

Background: During the past decade, the phenomenon of Oak decline has affected valuable Zagros Oak Forests in western Iran. Quercus brantii as the most important tree species of these forests has been damaged more than any other species. Many factors are involved in this phenomenon. The purpose of this study was to identify areas with high potential for decline and determine the most important factors affecting it. In this study, using multi-criteria evaluation methods based on the Geographic Information System (GIS) Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method and fuzzy logic, the map of decline potential of two selected stands (Dalab and Cheghasabz) in Ilam Province was prepared to reveal the high-risk areas of decline. The analytical hierarchical process was used to determine the weight of the factors. Results: The results showed that both selected stands had decline potential. However, the Dalab stand at 25% and the Cheghasabz, at approximately 60% of the stand has an extreme potential for decline. Rainfall factors, pests, and diseases also have the greatest effect on Oak forest decline. Conclusion: Due to socio-economic problems such as land use change, fire, tourism, grazing, and pruning, the Cheghasabz is more prone to decline than the Dalab, which was a forest reserve. The multi-criteria evaluation model used in the study can be a guide in identifying high-risk areas in other parts of the Zagros forests. The large area of critical areas in these two regions reveals the need for planning to implement support operations to reconstruct damaged ecosystems.

Background: Along the vertical canopy profile, natural light availability is variable and may induce leaves morphophysiological changes due to phenotypic plasticity. Morphological changes in juvenile and adult leaflet of compound leaves of plant species is still poorly understood, including in woody species of gallery forests. The present study evaluated the leaflet morphophysiological characteristics and plasticity index of three woody species in canopy and understory leaves in a gallery forest. Results: All morphophysiological characteristics varied within species (Myracrodruon urundeuva Allemão, Copaifera langsdorffii Desf. and Tapirira guianensis Aubl.). The leaflets of canopy trees showed significantly higher values of petiole length (PL) and diameter (PD), leaflet thickness (fresh - FT and dry -DT), specific leaf mass (SLM), in relation to understory leaflets. On the other hand, relative water content (RWC) did not change between adult trees and saplings, except for T. guianensis. The plasticity index of leaflet characteristics varied significantly within species. Plasticity index of three morphophysiological characteristics (PL, PD and DT) varied between species. PL and PD had the highest plasticity index values across species, whereas RWC had the lowest plasticity. Conclusion: Plasticity index of the tree species associates these leaflet morphophysiological traits (PL, PD and DT) with variations in the physical environment between strata of a gallery forest. forest fragment.

This study evaluated soil chemical and isotopic changes in soils of a chronosequence rainforest-sugarcane-pasture in the Atlantic Forest biome, Brazil. Soil samples were collected (0-20 cm) in areas of native Brazilian Atlantic rainforest, sugarcane plantation and pastures of Brachiaria decumbens. The soil analyses performed were: pH (water 1:2.5), P (Mehlich-I), (Al+3, H+Al, K+, Ca+2, Mg+2 and Na+), soil organic matter (SOM), N, organic carbon and δ13C and δ15N stable isotopes. The conversion of rainforest to sugarcane and pastures resulted in a reduction of the soil natural acidity. Forest areas had greater Al+3 and H+Al concentrations than cultivated areas. The conversion from forest to agricultural soil reduced Al+3 (44%) and H+Al (11%), approximately. Soils from pasture had a greater percentage of base saturation (37.3%) than forest soils (25.4%). Cation exchange capacity was strongly influenced by concentrations of K+, Ca+2 and Mg+2, but not by Na+. Carbon stable isotope (δ13C) was more depleted in forest areas (-28.14‰), followed by sugarcane (-21.33‰), and pastures (-19.54‰). The greatest δ15N values were found in sugarcane areas. The short chronosequence studied, had a strong influence of the conversion of the forest on the decrease of the natural acidity and modifications of the isotopic profile. The enrichment of soil δ13C was attributed to the changes from predominant C3 vegetation to C4 grasses. 1Universidade Federal Rural de Pernambuco, Department of Animal Science, Brazil.

Taper models are one of several necessary tools in modern forest inventory, giving information on diameter at any point along the tree stem and this information can also be used to estimate stem volume. In this study, we used nonlinear mixed-effects (NLME) modeling approach to minimize existing statistical problems in constructing taper equations. A segmented taper model of Max and Burkhart (1976) was fitted using this approach to consider for withinand between-tree variation in brutian pine (Pinus brutia Ten.) stem taper. Based on evaluation statistics, the model including random-effects parameters β1, β3 and β4 were found to be the best. Inclusion of random parameters were not completely eliminated heterogenous variance and autocorrelation in residuals. Incorporating variance function and a continuous autoregressive error structure (CAR(1)) to NLME Max and Burkhart model removed the heteroscedasticity and autocorrelation in residuals. Upper stem diameters were used to localized stem taper model to individual tree. For this, two different measurement scenarios were evaluated as one and two upper stem diameter measurements.

In this study, we used nonlinear mixed-effects (NLME) modeling approach to minimize existing statistical problems in constructing taper equations. A segmented taper model of Max and Burkhart (1976) was fitted using this approach to consider for withinand between-tree variation in brutian pine (Pinus brutia Ten.) stem taper. Based on evaluation statistics, the model including random-effects parameters β1, β3 and β4 were found to be the best. Inclusion of random parameters were not completely eliminated heterogenous variance and autocorrelation in residuals. Incorporating variance function and a continuous autoregressive error structure (CAR(1)) to NLME Max and Burkhart model removed the heteroscedasticity and autocorrelation in residuals. Upper stem diameters were used to localized stem taper model to individual tree. For this, two different measurement scenarios were evaluated as one and two upper stem diameter measurements. Inclusion of random parameters were improved the predictive capability of taper model in particularly the middle and lower sections of stem based on upper stem diameter measurements. The calibration using upper stem diameter measurements can improve the tree-level accuracy of stem taper model is therefore recommended. 1Isparta University of Applied Sciences, Faculty of Forestry, 32260, Isparta, Turkey, ORCID: 0000-0003-2132-2589a, 0000-0001-5798-3421b","PeriodicalId":50705,"journal":{"name":"Cerne","volume":"26 1","pages":"464-473"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45245213","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
