Comparative wood anatomy of two tropical species

Comparative Study of Wood Flour Photodegradation of Two Wood Species Submitted to Artificial Weathering

In this work Eucalyptus grandis and Dipteryx odorata were submitted to photodegradation by ultraviolet radiation. The effect of ultraviolet radiation irradiation on the color change and chemical composition of each wood flour were evaluated. The samples were submitted to a total of 500h of artificial weathering using condensation stages and ultraviolet radiation B irradiation cycles. The change...

comparative wood anatomy of four shrubs from sarab region

to understand the compatibility of xylem with dry climates, wood anatomy similarities anddifferences of four shrubs were investigated in dry and cold region of sarab (azarbaijan sharghiprovince). these shrubs were: pteropyrum olivieri, rosa canina, tamarix gallica, and rhamnuspallasii, while the wood anatomy of pteropyrum sp. is reported for the first time, in this research.after preparing micr...

Comparative wood anatomy of epacrids (Styphelioideae, Ericaceae s.L.).

The wood anatomy of 16 of the 37 genera within the epacrids (Styphelioideae, Ericaceae s.l.) is investigated by light and scanning electron microscopy. Several features in the secondary xylem occur consistently at the tribal level: arrangement of vessel-ray pits, distribution of axial parenchyma, ray width, and the presence and location of crystals. The primitive nature of Prionoteae and Archer...

Comparative petiole anatomy of cassava (Manihot) species.

In this study, we describe the petiole anatomy of six wild cassava (Manihot) species, one hybrid, and two cultivars of Manihot esculenta, in order to identify their dominant anatomical patterns and relate them to possible adaptations to abiotic factors in the Cerrado biome. The median parts of several petiole samples were transversally and longitudinally sectioned and stained. The results inclu...
