Dieback in the Native Shrub, Lindera benzoin: A Subtle Effect of Forest Fragmentation
I report on a documented dieback in spicebush, Lindera benzoin, after the winter of 1993-1994 in two mature deciduous forest stands in southwestern Ohio. The study compares differences between 67 ha Hueston Woods and 5.2 ha Kramer Woods and examines spatial patterns of decline in Kramer Woods. Local daily minimum temperatures in January 1994 were among the coldest on record since 1889The shrub ...
متن کاملOxygen levels beneath the closed eyelid.
The level of oxygen at the anterior corneal surface beneath the closed eyelid is shown to be equivalent to an atmosphere of 7.7% oxygen. This finding is in good agreement with assumptions which have been based on the oxygen level at the palpebral conjunctiva. However, in some instances a significant amount of oxygen is derived not only from the palpebral conjunctiva but also from the atmosphere...
متن کاملRegulation of dendritic branching by Cdc42 GAPs.
Nerve cells form elaborate, highly branched dendritic trees that are optimized for the receipt of synaptic signals. Recent work published in this issue of Genes & Development by Rosario and colleagues (pp. 1743-1757) shows that a Cdc42-specific GTPase-activating protein (NOMA-GAP) regulates the branching of dendrites by neurons in the top layers of the mouse cortex. The results raise interestin...
متن کاملDifferential induced response to generalist and specialist herbivores by Lindera benzoin L (Lauraceae) in sun and shade
Theoretically, induced defenses should be prevalent within low resource environments like the forest understory where constitutive defenses would be costly. Also, the induced response should be stronger when the herbivore is a generalist rather than a specialist, which often have mechanisms to avoid or overcome plant defenses. These ideas have been previously tested for herbaceous species, and ...
متن کاملPhenoseasonal subcanopy light dynamics and the effects of light on the physiological ecology of a common understory shrub, Lindera benzoin
The purpose of this work was to quantify the variation of subcanopy spatiotemporal light dynamics over the course of a year and to link it to the physiological ecology of the understory shrub, Lindera benzoin L. Blume (northern spicebush). Covering all seven phenoseasons of a deciduous forest, this work utilized a line quantum sensor to measure the variation in subcanopy light levels under all ...
