Vegetation Composition in a Post-Fire Successional Gradient of Pinus halepensis Forests in Attica, Greece*
The vegetation composition of a post-fke succession in Aleppo pine forests of Anica, Greece, was studied by a synchronic method. The sites form a post-fire chronosequence and have typical Mediterranean climate. Data on the flora of the burned sites, growth and life forms of the various plant taxa, as weU as on vegetation smcture are provided. The burned ecosystems recovered quite rapidly. Durin...
متن کاملAggregated Cones in Pinus Halepensis
Aggregated female cones were found in 192 Pinus halepensis trees growing in 54 populations in Israel, in habitats of vastly differing ecological conditions. All of these trees also carried normal (1-5 in a whorl) female cones. The number of aggregates per tree varied from one to several dozen. Some of the trees formed aggregates every year, after the first year of aggregate formation, while oth...
متن کاملLong-term impacts of prescribed fire on stand structure, growth, mortality, and individual tree vigor in Pinus resinosa forests
Keywords: Great Lakes region Forest structure Long-term silviculture study Pinus resinosa Prescribed fire a b s t r a c t Prescribed fire is increasingly being viewed as a valuable tool for mitigating the ecological consequences of long-term fire suppression within fire-adapted forest ecosystems. While the use of burning treatments in northern temperate conifer forests has at times received con...
متن کاملGenetic Structure of a Naturally Regenerating Post-Fire Seedling Population: Pinus halepensis As a Case Study
To study the effects of wildfire on population genetics of a wind pollinated and wind dispersed tree, we have analyzed the genetic structure of a post-fire, naturally regenerating seedling population of Pinus halepensis Miller, on Mt. Carmel, Israel. We tested the existence of spatial genetic structure, which is expected due to the special spatial demographic structure of the post-fire seedling...
متن کاملAnnual Cambial Rhythm in Pinus halepensis and Pinus sylvestris as Indicator for Climate Adaptation
To understand better the adaptation strategies of intra-annual radial growth in Pinus halepensis and Pinus sylvestris to local environmental conditions, we examined the seasonal rhythm of cambial activity and cell differentiation at tissue and cellular levels. Two contrasting sites differing in temperature and amount of precipitation were selected for each species, one typical for their growth ...
