  • Populus Tremula
    Populus tremula Populus tremula in Europe: distribution, habitat, usage and threats G. Caudullo, D. de Rigo The Eurasian aspen (Populus tremula L.) is a fast-growing broadleaf tree that is native to the cooler temperate and boreal regions of Europe and Asia. It has an extremely wide range, as a result of which there are numerous forms and subspecies. It can tolerate a wide range of habitat conditions and typically colonises disturbed areas (for example after fire, wind-throw, etc.). It is considered to be a keystone species because of its ecological importance for other species: it has more host-specific species than any other boreal tree. The wood is mainly used for veneer and pulp for paper production as it is light and not particularly strong, although it also has use as a biomass crop because of its fast growth. A number of hybrids have been developed to maximise its vigour and growth rate. Eurasian aspen (Populus tremula L.) is a medium-size, fast-growing tree, exceptionally reaching a height of 30 m1. The Frequency trunk is long and slender, rarely up to 1 m in diameter. The light < 25% branches are rather perpendicular, giving to the crown a conic- 25% - 50% 50% - 75% pyramidal shape. The leaves are 5-7 cm long, simple, round- > 75% ovate, with big wave-shaped teeth2, 3. They flutter in the slightest Chorology Native breeze, constantly moving and rustling, so that trees can often be heard but not seen. In spring the young leaves are coppery-brown and turn to golden yellow in autumn, making it attractive in all vegetative seasons1, 2.

  • Poplars and Willows: Trees for Society and the Environment / Edited by J.G
    Poplars and Willows Trees for Society and the Environment This volume is respectfully dedicated to the memory of Victor Steenackers. Vic, as he was known to his friends, was born in Weelde, Belgium, in 1928. His life was devoted to his family – his wife, Joanna, his 9 children and his 23 grandchildren. His career was devoted to the study and improve- ment of poplars, particularly through poplar breeding. As Director of the Poplar Research Institute at Geraardsbergen, Belgium, he pursued a lifelong scientific interest in poplars and encouraged others to share his passion. As a member of the Executive Committee of the International Poplar Commission for many years, and as its Chair from 1988 to 2000, he was a much-loved mentor and powerful advocate, spreading scientific knowledge of poplars and willows worldwide throughout the many member countries of the IPC. This book is in many ways part of the legacy of Vic Steenackers, many of its contributing authors having learned from his guidance and dedication. Vic Steenackers passed away at Aalst, Belgium, in August 2010, but his work is carried on by others, including mem- bers of his family.

    Populus: A Premier Pioneer System for Plant Genomics 1 1 Populus: A Premier Pioneer System for Plant Genomics Stephen P. DiFazio,1,a,* Gancho T. Slavov 1,b and Chandrashekhar P. Joshi 2 ABSTRACT The genus Populus has emerged as one of the premier systems for studying multiple aspects of tree biology, combining diverse ecological characteristics, a suite of hybridization complexes in natural systems, an extensive toolbox of genetic and genomic tools, and biological characteristics that facilitate experimental manipulation. Here we review some of the salient biological characteristics that have made this genus such a popular object of study. We begin with the taxonomic status of Populus, which is now a subject of ongoing debate, though it is becoming increasingly clear that molecular phylogenies are accumulating. We also cover some of the life history traits that characterize the genus, including the pioneer habit, long-distance pollen and seed dispersal, and extensive vegetative propagation. In keeping with the focus of this book, we highlight the genetic diversity of the genus, including patterns of differentiation among populations, inbreeding, nucleotide diversity, and linkage disequilibrium for species from the major commercially- important sections of the genus. We conclude with an overview of the extent and rapid spread of global Populus culture, which is a testimony to the growing economic importance of this fascinating genus.

European aspen (Populus tremula L.) is one key feature in boreal forests contributing significantly to the biological diversity of boreal forest landscapes. However, due to their sparse and scattered occurrence in northern Europe, the explicit spatial data on aspen remain scarce and incomprehensive, which hampers biodiversity management and conservation efforts.

  • Tree Planting and Management
    COMMONWEALTH WAR GRAVES COMMISSION Tree Planting and Management Breadth of Opportunity The spread of the Commission's responsibilities over some 148 countries in temperate, mediterranean, tropical and desert climates provides wonderful opportunities to experiment with nature's wealth of tree species. We are particularly fortunate in being able to grow many interesting and beautiful trees and we will explain how we manage them and what splendid specimens they can make. Why Plant Trees? Trees are planted for a variety of reasons: their amenity value, leaf shape and size, flowers, fruit, habit, form, bark, landscape value, shelter or screening, backcloth planting, shade, noise and pollution reduction, soil stabilisation and to encourage wild life. Often we plant trees solely for their amenity value. That is, the beauty of the tree itself. This can be from the leaves such as those in Robinia pseudoacacia 'Frisia', the flowers in the tropical tree Tabebuia or Albizia, the crimson stems of the sealing wax palm (Cyrtostachys renda), or the fruit as in Magnolia grandiflora. above: Sealing wax palms at Taiping War Cemetery, Malaysia with insert of the fruit of Magnolia grandiflora Selection Generally speaking the form of the left: The tropical tree Tabebuia tree is very often a major contributing factor and this, together with a sound knowledge of below: Flowers of the tropical the situation in which the tree is to tree Albizia julibrissin be grown, guides the decision to the best choice of species. Exposure is a major limitation to the free choice of species in northern Europe especially and trees such as Sorbus, Betula, Tilia, Fraxinus, Crataegus and fastigiate yews play an important role in any landscape design where the elements are seriously against a wider selection.

    Communication The Development of Populus alba L. and Populus tremula L. Species Specific Molecular Markers Based on 5S rDNA Non-Transcribed Spacer Polymorphism Oleg S. Alexandrov * and Gennady I. Karlov Laboratory of Plant Cell Engineering, All-Russia Research Institute of Agricultural Biotechnology, Timiryazevskaya 42, Moscow 127550, Russia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +7-499-976-6544 Received: 1 November 2019; Accepted: 26 November 2019; Published: 1 December 2019 Abstract: The Populus L. genus includes tree species that are botanically grouped into several sections. This species successfully hybridizes both in the same section and among other sections. Poplar hybridization widely occurs in nature and in variety breeding. Therefore, the development of poplar species’ specific molecular markers is very important. The effective markers for trees of the Aigeiros Duby section have recently been developed using the polymorphism of 5S rDNA non-transcribed spacers (NTSs). In this article, 5S rDNA NTS-based markers were designed for several species of the Leuce Duby section. The alb9 marker amplifies one fragment with the DNA matrix of P. alba and P. × canescens (natural hybrid P. alba P. tremula). The alb2 marker works the same way, except for the × case with Populus bolleana. In this case, the amplification of three fragments was observed. The tremu1 marker amplification was detected with the DNA matrix of P. tremula and P. canescens. Thus, the × developed markers may be applied as a useful tool for P. alba, P. tremula, P. canescens, and P. bolleana × identification in various areas of plant science such as botany, dendrology, genetics of populations, variety breeding, etc.

Factors determining the epiphytic bryophyte distribution in such forests were investigated. In total 45 epiphytic bryophyte species were found (12 of them were signal species, including three specially protected species in Latvia – Antitrichia curtipendula, Neckera crispa and Plagiothecium latebricola). Th e total number of bryophyte and number of signal species were higher on tree species with relatively basic bark pH (Acer platanoides, Ulmus glabra, Fraxinus excelsior, Populus tremula, Sorbus aucuparia, Tilia cordata, Salix sp.),sp.), butbut llowerower oonn ttreeree sspeciespecies wwithith aacidiccidic bbarkark (Alnus glutinosa, Betula pendula, Picea abies). Tree diameter, age and distance from tree to top of slope were not related to epiphytic bryophyte distribution. Th e highest bryophyte species richness (including signal species) was found up to a 0.5-m height on the southern exposure of trees and on the upper side of inclined trees (on south exposure of trees on north facing slopes, and on east exposure of trees – on west facing slopes). Key words: broad-leaved forests, bryophyte, distribution, epiphyte.

  • Eurasian Aspen (Populus Tremula)
    Technical guidelines for genetic conservation and use Eurasian aspen Populus tremula Populus tremula Populus tremula Georg von Wühlisch Federal Research Institute for Rural Areas, Forestry, and Fisheries Institute for Forest Genetics, Germany These Technical Guidelines are intended to assist those who cherish the valuable Eurasian aspen genepool and its inheritance, through conserving valuable seed sources for use in practical forestry. The focus is on conserving the genetic diversity of the species at the European scale. The recommendations provided in this module should be regarded as a commonly agreed basis to be complemented and further developed for local, national or regional conditions. The Guidelines are based on the available knowledge of the species and on widely accepted methods for the conservation of forest genetic resources. Biology and ecology Populus tremula L. (European aspen, common aspen or Eura- sian aspen; section Populus (syn. Leuce) (subsection Trepi- dae (Dode)); family Salicace- ae) is a wide-spread colo- nising pioneer species. It is a medium-sized to tall deciduous tree growing to 40 m height with a trunk attaining over one meter in diameter. The bark is pale silvery-grey to green and smooth on young trees with dark grey diamond- shaped lenticels, becoming dark grey and fissured on older trees. The adult leaves, produced on branches of mature trees, are nearly round, slightly wider than long, 2–8 cm diameter, with a coarsely toothed margin and a laterally flattened petiole 4–8 cm long. The flat petiole allows them to tremble in even slight breezes, and is the source of its scientific name.

  • The Manufacture and Characterisation of Rosid Angiosperm-Derived Biochars Applied to Water Treatment
    BioEnergy Research https://doi.org/10.1007/s12155-019-10074-x The Manufacture and Characterisation of Rosid Angiosperm-Derived Biochars Applied to Water Treatment Gideon A. Idowu1,2 & Ashleigh J. Fletcher1 # The Author(s) 2019 Abstract Marabu (Dichrostachys cinerea) from Cuba and aspen (Populus tremula) from Britain are two rosid angiosperms that grow easily, as a weed and as a phytoremediator, respectively. As part of scientific efforts to valorise these species, their barks and woods were pyrolysed at 350, 450, 550 and 650 °C, and the resulting biochars were characterised to determine the potential of the products for particular applications. Percentage carbon composition of the biochars generally increased with pyrolysis temper- ature, giving biochars with highest carbon contents at 650 °C. Biochars produced from the core marabu and aspen wood sections had higher carbon contents (up to 85%) and BET surface areas (up to 381 m2 g−1) than those produced from the barks.
