The mpI ortance of Geographic and Biological Variables in Predicting the Naturalization of Non-Native Woody Plants in the Upper Midwest Abstract The es lection, introduction, and cultivation of non-native woody plants beyond their native ranges can have great benefits, but also unintended consequences. Among these consequences is the tendency for some species to naturalize and become invasive pests in new environments to which they were introduced. In lieu of lengthy and costly field trials, risk-assessment models can be used to predict the likelihood of naturalization. -
Case Study of Anatomy, Physical and Mechanical Properties of the Sapwood and Heartwood of Random Tree Platycladus Orientalis (L.) Franco from South-Eastern Poland
Article Case Study of Anatomy, Physical and Mechanical Properties of the Sapwood and Heartwood of Random Tree Platycladus orientalis (L.) Franco from South-Eastern Poland Agnieszka Laskowska * , Karolina Majewska, Paweł Kozakiewicz , Mariusz Mami ´nskiand Grzegorz Bryk The Institute of Wood Sciences and Furniture, 159 Nowoursynowska St., 02-776 Warsaw, Poland; [email protected] (K.M.); [email protected] (P.K.); [email protected] (M.M.); [email protected] (G.B.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Oriental arborvitae is not fully characterized in terms of its microscopic structure or physical or mechanical properties. Moreover, there is a lot of contradictory information in the literature about oriental arborvitae, especially in terms of microscopic structure. Therefore, the sapwood (S) and heartwood (H) of Platycladus orientalis (L.) Franco from Central Europe were subjected to examinations. The presence of helical thickenings was found in earlywood tracheids (E). Latewood tracheids (L) were characterized by a similar thickness of radial and tangential walls and a similar diameter in the tangential direction in the sapwood and heartwood zones. In the case of earlywood tracheids, such a similarity was found only in the thickness of the tangential walls. The volume swelling (VS) of sapwood and heartwood after reaching maximum moisture content (MMC) was 12.8% (±0.5%) and 11.2% (±0.5%), respectively. The average velocity of ultrasonic Citation: Laskowska, A.; Majewska, waves along the fibers (υ) for a frequency of 40 kHz was about 6% lower in the heartwood zone K.; Kozakiewicz, P.; Mami´nski,M.; than in the sapwood zone.

Notes on Some Species of Chloroscypha Endophytic in Cupressaceae of Europe and North America
©Verlag Ferdinand Berger & Söhne Ges.m.b.H., Horn, Austria, download unter www.biologiezentrum.at Notes on some Species of Chloroscypha Endophytic in Cupressaceae of Europe and North America 0. PETEJNI Mikrobiologisches Institut, ETH-Zentrum, CH-8092 Zürich, Schweiz Introduction The genus Chloroscypha was proposed by SEAVER in 1931, based on a fungus collected on Thuja plicata D. DON. He included C. seaveri REHM ex SEAVER as the type and three other species, viz. C. chloro- mela (PHILL. & HARK.) SEAVER, C. jacksonii SEAVER [= C. entero- chroma (PECK) SEAVER] and C. juniperina (ELLIS) SEAVER [= C. sa- binae (FUCK.) DENNIS]. In 1938 SEAVER added another species, C. cedrina (COOKE) SEAVER. Later, in 1943, he transferred all Chloro- cypha species to Kriegeria RABENHORST. SEAVER considered Ombro- phila kriegeriana RABH. to be the type-species of Kriegeria RABH. However, as pointed out by DENNIS (1954, 1956), Kriegeria has not been validly published by RABENHORST, who only proposed to erect a new genus for Ombrophila kriegeriana, and suggested the name Kriegeria ad interim. In addition, at the time SEAVER adopted it. this name was already occupied by Kriegeria eriophori BRESADOLA (1891), belonging to the Tuberculariaceae (Auriculariales according to von HÖHNEL, 1909). Thus the name Chloroscypha SEAVER has been re- established by later authors. For a detailed account of the nomen- clatural problem see DENNIS (1954) and KOBAYASHI (1965). Ten species have been described, all of them occurring on Cupressaceae. Species of Chloroscypha are suspected to be weak pathogens of Cupressaceae (GREMMEN, 1963; KOBAYASHI, 1965), however, the extent of their pathogenicity is not known yet. Reinoculation experi- ments have not been conducted because it has not been possible to obtain species of Chloroscypha in pure culture. -
