Open source IaaS is hot topic in cloud computing and every year a new IaaS with a different design is announced. This paper provides a closer look into three common IaaS; Eucalyptus, OpenStack & Nimbus. OpenStack is currently the best choice of public cloud providers due to its aim at standardization and scalability while Eucalyptus is more appropriate for private cloud deployments.

Cylindrocladium leaf blight is one of the most important diseases in Eucalyptus plantations. We investigated the proteome and transcriptome of Eucalyptus infected or not infected with Calonectria pseudoreteaudii. Here we provide the information about the processing of raw data obtained by RNA-seq and iTRAQ technologies. The data are related to [1].

Diversity Arrays Technology (DArT) provides a robust, high throughput, cost-effective method to query thousands of sequence polymorphisms in a single assay. Despite the extensive use of this genotyping platform for numerous plant species, little is known regarding the sequence attributes and genome-wide distribution of DArT markers. We investigated the genomic properties of the 7,680 DArT marke...

Species of Eucalyptus, mostly native to Australia, are widely planted as exotics in the tropics and Southern Hemisphere. These plantations represent an important source of fuel-wood, structural timber and pulp. Eucalyptus plantations are, however, vulnerable to infection by pathogens, including Mycosphaerella spp. and their anamorphs, which have caused substantial damage, in many parts of the w...

Plantations play an important role in carbon sequestration and the global carbon cycle. However, there is a dilemma in that most plantations are managed on short rotations, and the carbon sequestration capacities of these short-rotation plantations remain understudied. Eucalyptus has been widely planted in the tropics and subtropics due to its rapid growth, high adaptability, and large economic...

In Brazil, plantations of exotic species such as Eucalyptus have expanded substantially in recent years, due in large part to the great demand for cellulose and wood. The combination of the steep slopes in some of these regions, such as the municipalities located close to the Serra do Mar and Serra da Mantiqueira, and the soil exposure that occurs in some stages in the Eucalyptus cultivation cy...

Background The species of the genus Eucalyptus are the most planted for the fiber crop in the world. They are mainly utilized for timber, pulp and paper production. Brazil, helped by the favorable weather conditions, appears as a big producer and exporter of eucalyptus derivates. In 2002, the Brazilian network research of the Eucalyptus Genome (Genolyptus) was established with the goal of integ...

Many traits are known to be important in determining the value of Eucalyptus wood as sawn timber. The commercial importance of the microfi bril angle (MFA) for wood quality is well established for a range of softwoods, but is less clear for hardwood species. For instance, the relationships of MFA with wood stiffness and compressive strength are unknown in Eucalyptus. Therefore, the aim of this ...
