Abstract Black alder ( Alnus glutinosa [L.] Gaertn.) is an important component of riparian and wetland ecosystems in Europe. However, data on the growth this significant broadleaved tree species very limited. Presently, black currently suffers from pathogen Phytophthora particularly threatened by climate change. The objective study was to focus impact climatic variables (precipitation, temperat...

In the past, there has been an emphasis on conifer tree species in forestry operations in British Columbia. As a result, there is a serious lack of information regarding disease and decay problems in most hardwood tree species. This presentation reports the results of recent studies on levels of decay in natural red alder stands, and on the formation of stain in harvested alder logs. Disease pr...

BACKGROUND/AIMS Recently, new palaeoecological records supported by molecular analyses and palaeodistributional modelling have provided more comprehensive insights into plant behaviour during the last Quaternary cycle. We reviewed the migration history of species of subgenus Alnus during the last 50,000 years in Europe with a focus on (1) a general revision of Alnus history since the Last Glaci...

Riparian tree species are thought to be sensitive the more frequent and intensive drought heat events that projected occur in future. However, compared waterlogging, information about responses of these water limitation is still scare. Black alder (Alnus glutinosa L.) a riparian with significant ecological economic importance Europe. In present study, we investigated physiological black differe...
