  • Paulownia Tomentosa and Paulownia Elongata X Fortunei in Glasshouse Experiment
    Growth and Development of Paulownia tomentosa and Paulownia elongata x fortunei in Glasshouse Experiment Veselka Gyuleva, Tatiana Stankova, Miglena Zhyanski, Maria Glushkova and Ekaterina Andonova Forest Research Institute – BAS, blvd. “Kliment Ohridski” 132, Sofia, 1756, Bulgaria Corresponding Author: Veselka Gyuleva, e-mail: [email protected] Received: 20 March 2020 Accepted: 10 May 2020 Abstract The growth potential of Paulownia tomentosa and Paulownia elongata x fortunei, cultivated at three planting densities in a greenhouse was investigated, using conventional field and laboratory methods. Data on the survival percentage, base diameter, total plant height, biomass and leaf area were obtained and analyzed. Differences in growth, productivity, survival and biomass allocation pattern of the tested clones of Paulownia tomentosa and Paulownia elongata x fortunei were found. The results obtained showed that hybrids of Paulownia elongata x fortunei do not exceed the growth performance of the Paulownia tomentosa species for the region of Sofia. Key words: fast-growing forest trees, plant height, base diameter, biomass allocation Introduction Over the last two decades, species and hybrids of genus Paulownia have attracted the attention of many researchers, mainly due to the fact that they are fast-growing and suitable for testing at higher planting densities, at short-rotations, and possess potential for repeatable reproduction. According to the literature (Ericsson and Nilsson, 2006), short-rotation plantations will be increasingly used for biomass production in the future, and species or clones with high repetitive regenerative capacity will be particularly valuable. Moreover, Maier and Vetter (2004) reported that, unlike most fast-growing tree species, Paulownia tomentosa increases its bioproductivity during the second rotation or after the first 4-year cycle.

  • Simulating Carbon Dioxide Exchange Rates of Deciduous Tree Species: Evidence for a General Pattern in Biochemical Changes and Water Stress Response

However, it is not known if the pattern in leaf biochemical properties – maximum Rubisco carboxylation (Vcmax) and electron transport (Jmax) – differ between species. This study explored whether a general pattern of changes in Vcmax, Jmax, and a standardized soil moisture response accounted for carbon dioxide exchange of deciduous trees throughout the growing season. † Methods The model MAESTRA was used to examine Vcmax and Jmax of leaves of five deciduous trees, Acer rubrum ‘Summer Red’, Betula nigra, Quercus nuttallii, Quercus phellos and Paulownia elongata, and their response to soil moisture. MAESTRA was parameterized using data from in situ measurements on organs. Linking the changes in biochemical properties of leaves to the whole tree, MAESTRA integrated the general pattern in Vcmax and Jmax from gas exchange parameters of leaves with a standardized soil moisture response to describe carbon dioxide exchange throughout the growing season.

The history of the Empress tree (Paulownia) in the USA Whitney Adrienne Snow* Department of History, Midwestern State University, Wichita Falls, TX, USA The Paulownia tree first arrived in the USA in the early nineteenth century and quickly transitioned from an exotic oddity to a beloved ornamental by some and a reviled invasive species by others. Many gardeners and horticulturalists praised the tree for its rapid growth and beautiful lavender blossoms. Critics thought the non-native tree a threat to native flora and sought its eradication. One species, Paulownia tomentosa,is invasive and has been especially vilified by organizations ranging from the National Park Service and National Forests Service to the US Department of Agriculture.

Though not regarded as a regular medicinal plant species, various plant parts (leaves, flowers, fruits, wood, bark, roots and seeds) of Paulownia have been used for treating a variety of ailments and diseases. Each of these parts has been shown to contain one or more bioactive components, such as ursolic acid and matteucinol in the leaves; paulownin and d- sesamin in the wood/xylem; syringin and catalpinoside in the bark.

However, there is limited information on the use of paulownia leaves as an animal feed resource. Hence, this study was conducted to assess the effects of paulownia leaf meal (0%, 15%, and 30% in diets) on the growth performance, nutrient digestibility, blood biochemistry, and intestinal microbiota of growing rabbits.

  • Reproductive Biology of Paulownia Elongata, A
    REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY OF PAULOWNIA ELONGATA, A MULTIPURPOSE TREE Brajesh N Vaidya, Richa Bajaj, Nirmal Joshee Graduate Program in Biotechnology, Fort Valley State University, Fort Valley, GA 31030, USA Contact: Nirmal Joshee [email protected] ABSTRACT: Paulownia genus is a group of fast growing trees that grow well in the southern United States. Paulownia (Paulowniaceae) is a genus of deciduous hardwood trees from China used for agroforestry, biomass production, land reclamation, and animal waste remediation. Paulownia (Paulownia tomentosa), or kiri, was introduced into the US during the 1800s. It quickly became naturalized over much of the eastern states. Except for its A B C ornamental qualities, it was generally ignored as a non-native weed tree. However, since Japanese buyers have begun to buy US grown logs, Paulownia is now considered a premier timber species. Forestlands, an important source of cellulosic biofuels feedstock, are expected to play an important role in meeting the national biofuel target. Plants are improved continuously by using molecular or classical breeding tools and in both cases it is important to have a clear understanding of reproductive biology. Light, Fluorescent, and Scanning D E Electron Micrography was conducted to study pollination and subsequent steps. Variable Figure 2. Paulownia in pictures. A.

The aim of the study was to determine the digestibility and energy content of Paulownia elongata S.Y.Hu leaves after leaf fall. Leaves together with petioles were dried at room temperature and milled with a roughage mill before feeding to animals. A classical digestion trial was performed, with three rams weighing 55.4kg on average, by determining the chemical composition of consumed feed, feed leftovers and excreted faeces. Digestibility was evaluated as difference in the amount of ingested nutrients and nutrients excreted with faeces and it was determined to be 50.72, 52.08, 31.63, 54.09, 55.15 and 56.06% for dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM), crude protein (CP), ether extract (EE), crude fibre (CF) and nitrogen-free extract (NFE). The energy value for ruminants calculated on the basis of chemical composition and established digestibility was 8.29 MJ digestible energy (DE)/kg DM, 6.55 MJ metabolizable energy (ME)/ kg DM, 0.59 feed units for milk (FUM)/kg DM and 0.52 feed units for growth (FUG)/kg DM.

  • Histology of the Regeneration of Paulownia Tomentosa (Paulowniaceae) by Organogenesis
    Histology of the regeneration of Paulownia tomentosa (Paulowniaceae) by organogenesis Mª del Carmen San José, Mª José Cernadas & Elena Corredoira Instituto de Investigaciones Agrobiológicas de Galicia, CSIC, Apartado 122, 15705 Santiago de Compostela, Spain; [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Received 29-VII-2013. Corrected 07-XI-2013. Accepted 06-XII-2013. Abstract: Paulownia tomentosa is a fast-growing tree species with a considerable economic potential because of its value for wood as well as its high biomass production, and elevated stress tolerance. The objective of the pres- ent study was to evaluate the development of adventitious buds in leaves obtained from four-week-old shoots of P. tomentosa, in order to identify the cells involved in in vitro adventitious bud development. Leaves (proximal halves with the petiole) from the first node were excised from four-week-old micropropagated shoots, and cul- tured on Murashige and Skoog medium, supplemented with 3% (w/v) sucrose, 0.6% (w/v) Sigma agar, 22.7µM thidiazuron (TDZ) and 2.9µM indole-3-acetic acid for two weeks, explants were then transferred to the same medium with 0.44µM N6-benzyladenine for another four weeks. Five explants were collected daily during the two first weeks in TDZ treatment. A total of 140 samples were processed. Most of the buds developed indirectly from the callus formed in the petiole stub, and they became visible after eight-ten days of culture, although some buds were also observed in the area of the laminar cut at the level of the veins.
