Shagbark Hickory (Carya ovata) in a Fragmented Woodlot
The stand structure of shagbark hickory (Carya ovata) and soil properties in an extremely fragmented woodlot were examined in northeastern Illinois. The goal of this preliminary study was to examine the effect of extreme forest fragmentation (in a golf course environment) on the structure of oak-hickory remnants and the impact of golf course management on soil properties associated with these r...
متن کاملPatterns and variability in seedling carbon assimilation: implications for tree recruitment under climate change.
Predicting future forests' structure and functioning is a critical goal for ecologists, thus information on seedling recruitment will be crucial in determining the composition and structure of future forest ecosystems. In particular, seedlings' photosynthetic response to a changing environment will be a key component determining whether particular species establish enough individuals to maintai...
متن کاملDevelopment of SSR Markers in Hickory (Carya cathayensis Sarg.) and Their Transferability to Other Species of Carya
Hickory (Carya cathayensis Sarg.), an important nut-producing species in Southeastern China, has high economic value, but so far there has been no cultivar bred under species although it is mostly propagated by seeding and some elite individuals have been found. It has been found recently that this species has a certain rate of apomixis and poor knowledge of its genetic background has influence...
متن کاملQuantitative and qualitative characteristics of dominant tree species and their regeneration status in Arasbaran protected area (Case study: Hoosh, Dinehvar, and Aghamirloo villages)
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of dominant tree species and their regeneration status in the Arasbaran forests. Data were collected by transect sampling and regeneration was assessed by plot with an area 100 m2. In the sample plots, we recorded information on species type, diameter at breast height, height, quality of seedlings ...
متن کاملStructure and Dynamics of an Old-Growth Pine-Oak Community of the Southern Appalachians, Georgia, U.S.A
disturbance was ice storms, which generally resulted in suppression of radial growth in pines and increased radial growth in oaks. Additionally, pulses of understory establishment coincided with major ice storms. The lack of understory disturbance such as fire may be allowing the establishment of shade tolerant understory species while limiting the establishment of pine and oak. Canopy disturba...
