چکیده

Abstract Tree species in the Pinaceae are some of most widely introduced non-native tree globally, especially southern hemisphere. In New Zealand, plantations radiata pine ( Pinus D. Don) occupy c . 1.6 million ha and form 90% planted forests. Although has naturalized since 1904, there is a general view Zealand that this not invaded widely. We comprehensively review where throughout Zealand. used combination observational data climate niche modelling to reveal invasion occurred nationally. Climate demonstrates while current occurrences patchy, up 76% land area (i.e. 211,388 km 2 ) climatically capable supporting populations. Radiata mainly grasslands shrublands, but also Notably, it lower-statured vegetation, including three classes naturally uncommon ecosystems, primary successions secondary successions. Overall, our findings demonstrate pervasive ongoing outside plantations. The relatively high growth rates per individual effects may result strong on ecosystems alter successional trajectories. Local central government currently manage invasions propagule pressure from existing new grows, hence greater emphasis warranted both managing proactively preventing future invasions. therefore recommend levy conifer offset costs invasions, stricter regulations protect vulnerable ecosystems. A economic uses invasive alongside could be adopted measure avert negative impacts.

Barking up the Right Tree?

Background: The variation in the sizes of the genomes of distinct life forms remains somewhat puzzling. The organization of proteins into domains and the different mechanisms that regulate gene expression are two factors that potentially increase the capacity of genomes to create more complex systems. High-throughput protein interaction data now make it possible to examine the additional comple...

Short Tree, Long Tree, Right Tree, Wrong Tree: New Acquisition Bias Corrections for Inferring SNP Phylogenies

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are useful markers for phylogenetic studies owing in part to their ubiquity throughout the genome and ease of collection. Restriction site associated DNA sequencing (RADseq) methods are becoming increasingly popular for SNP data collection, but an assessment of the best practises for using these data in phylogenetics is lacking. We use computer simulations...

Right ventricular cardiomyopathy in -thalassaemia major

Background In patients with -thalassaemia major a high incidence of cardiac involvement still exists despite improved prognosis with chelation therapy. Development of severe right heart failure is common and has been attributed to pulmonary hypertension secondary to lung haemochromatosis. However, the possibility of direct right ventricular myocardial involvement in the absence of significant p...
