Factors controlling bark decomposition and its role in wood decomposition in five tropical tree species
Organic matter decomposition represents a vital ecosystem process by which nutrients are made available for plant uptake and is a major flux in the global carbon cycle. Previous studies have investigated decomposition of different plant parts, but few considered bark decomposition or its role in decomposition of wood. However, bark can comprise a large fraction of tree biomass. We used a common...
متن کاملChemical extractives of the tropical wood
1 Wallaba (Eperua falcata) is a tropical wood which is known to have naturally low swelling 2 characteristics. Samples of wallaba heartwood were subjected to differential solvent 3 extraction. Wood pieces that were extracted with methanol experienced significantly higher 4 swelling after rehydration from oven dry to 96% relative humidity in comparison to non-5 extracted samples and samples extr...
متن کاملContribution to the identification of Xylaria species in Iran
The preliminary result of a survey conducted on Xylaria species in the North of Iran is presented. Based on morphological examination of fungal specimens collected from Guilan, Mazandaran and Golestan provinces, eight species including Xylaria arbuscula, X. cubensis, X. filiformis, X. hypoxylon, X. longipes, X. multiplex, X. pannosa, and X. polymorpha were identified. Among the identified speci...
متن کاملWood Species and Culture Age Affect Zone Line Production of Xylaria polymorpha
Three pure cultures of Xylaria polymorpha were isolated from fruiting bodies at yearly intervals over two years and maintained on 2% malt agar plates at room temperature. Immediately after isolation of the third culture, the cultures were inoculated onto sugar maple (Acer saccharum), aspen (Populus tremuloides), birch (Betula alleghaniensis), and basswood (Tilia americana) 14 mm cubes and incub...
متن کاملGenetic Variation in the Chemical Components of Eucalyptus globulus Wood
Despite the ecological and economic importance of lignin and other wood chemical components, there are few studies of the natural genetic variation that exists within plant species and its adaptive significance. We used models developed from near infra-red spectroscopy to study natural genetic variation in lignin content and monomer composition (syringyl-to-guaiacyl ratio [S/G]) as well as cell...
