Economic implications of different cork oak forest management systems
The agro-silvopastoral system ‘montado’ is mostly dominated by Mediterranean evergreen oaks such as, cork oak (Quercus suber L.) and holm oak (Quercus rotundifolia). The ‘montado’ production system management aims the maintenance of a balanced sustainable land use to cope with the Mediterranean climate variability. One important issue in cork oak forests is the control shrub growth in order to ...
متن کاملPost-Fire Management of Cork Oak Forests
Cork oak ( Quercus suber L.) forests are def ned here as the range of habitats from open savanna-like woodland formations to dense forests. According to the European forest type’s nomenclature (EEA 2007 ) these ecosystems are included in the ‘broadleaved evergreen forest’ class and in the ‘Mediterranean e vergreen oak forest’ type. This forest type is dominated by the e vergreen sclerophyllous ...
متن کاملAdaptive Management on Sustainability of Cork Oak Woodlands
The cork oak woodland production systems result from the integration of conflicting activities in the same space creating the need of constant search of equilibrium between its components in order to achieve sustainability. In a climate change environment, associated with recent modifications in rural societies, adaptive management concepts are needed so as to maintain cork oak woodland systems...
متن کاملIdentification of GPAT acyltransferases in cork oak
Background Acyltransferases are enzymes with an important role in the synthesis of both cutin and suberin which are part of the lipophilic barriers, such as epidermis and periderm that protect terrestrial plants against water loss and other external aggressions. During secondary growth in woody plants such as cork oak (Quercus suber L.), the epidermis is replaced by a suberized periderm that in...
متن کاملUnderstanding fungal functional biodiversity during the mitigation of environmentally dispersed pentachlorophenol in cork oak forest soils.
Pentachlorophenol (PCP) is globally dispersed and contamination of soil with this biocide adversely affects its functional biodiversity, particularly of fungi - key colonizers. Their functional role as a community is poorly understood, although a few pathways have been already elucidated in pure cultures. This constitutes here our main challenge - elucidate how fungi influence the pollutant mit...
