Thomasma Donald E. Nute Abstract This is the reference guide for NED-2, which is the latest version of NED, a forest ecosystem management decision support system. This software is part of a family of software products intended to help resource managers develop goals, assess current and future conditions, and produce sustainable management plans for forest properties. Designed for stand-alone Windows-based personal computers, NED-2 integrates a variety of forest management tools into a single environment. These tools include databases, growth and yield models, wildlife models, geographic information systems (GIS), visualization tools, and others. The software is distributed with an online help system and a user’s guide. This reference guide provides more detailed explanations of the models, equations, and rules that underlie the software.

Therefore it is better suited as a tree, which distinguishes it from the species. Young twigs are green but turn to brown red quickly. Mature trunks too, are red brown to grey. The green leaf turns yellow to orange red in autumn. The flowers are not showy. However, each head with flowers is surrounded by 6 (sometimes 4 or 8) ovoid, pointed bracts. These turn from cream white to entirely white, sometimes with a pink hue and can become 10 cm. This makes the plant in full bloom very decorative. 'Monarch' flowers profusely. The circa 1 cm large, orange-red fruits appear in early autumn.

    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Time-coursed transcriptome analysis identifes key expressional regulation in growth cessation and dormancy induced by short days in Paulownia Jiayuan Wang1, Hongyan Wang2, Tao Deng3, Zhen Liu1* & Xuewen Wang 3,4* Maintaining the viability of the apical shoot is critical for continued vertical growth in plants. Terminal shoot of tree species Paulownia cannot regrow in subsequent years. The short day (SD) treatment leads to apical growth cessation and dormancy. To understand the molecular basis of this, we further conducted global RNA-Seq based transcriptomic analysis in apical shoots to check regulation of gene expression. We obtained ~219 million paired-end 125-bp Illumina reads from fve time-courses and de novo assembled them to yield 49,054 unigenes. Compared with the untreated control, we identifed 1540 diferentially expressed genes (DEGs) which were found to involve in 116 metabolic pathways. Expression of 87% of DEGs exhibited switch-on or switch-of pattern, indicating key roles in growth cessation. Most DEGs were enriched in the biological process of gene ontology categories and at later treatment stages. The pathways of auxin and circadian network were most afected and the expression of associated DEGs was characterised. During SD induction, auxin genes IAA, ARF and SAURs were down-regulated and circadian genes including PIF3 and PRR5 were up-regulated. PEPC in photosynthesis was constitutively upregulated, suggesting a still high CO2 concentrating activity; however, the converting CO2 to G3P in the Calvin cycle is low, supported by reduced expression of GAPDH encoding the catalysing enzyme for this step. This indicates a de-coupling point in the carbon fxation.

  • Seed Collection and Conservation of Cornus Nuttallii (Pacific Dogwood), a Region 1 Sensitive Species
    SEED COLLECTION AND CONSERVATION OF CORNUS NUTTALLII (PACIFIC DOGWOOD), A REGION 1 SENSITIVE SPECIES by Christine C. Lorain Natural Heritage Section Nongame/Endangered Wildlife Program Bureau of Wildlife November 1990 Idaho Department of Fish and Game 600 South Walnut, P.O. Box 25 Boise, Idaho 83707 Jerry M. Conley, Director Cooperative Challenge Cost Share Project Clearwater and Nez Perce National Forests Idaho Department of Fish and Game Purchase Order No. 43-0276-0-0317 (CNF) Purchase Order No. 43-0252-0-0293 (NPNF) ABSTRACT Seed of Cornus nuttallii (Pacific dogwood) was collected and preserved from the Clearwater and Nez Perce National Forests during the 1990 field season. This project was conducted by the Idaho Department of Fish and Game's Natural Heritage Program as a cooperative Challenge Cost Share venture between the Department and the Clearwater and Nez Perce National Forests. Pacific dogwood, a Region 1 Sensitive Plant Species, is a Pacific coastal disjunct to northern Idaho. The principal distribution of this species is west of the Cascade/Sierra crest from southwestern British Columbia to southern California. A single isolated population occurs some 300 miles inland along the confluence of the Lochsa and Selway Rivers on lands administered by the Nez Perce and Clearwater National Forests. In the late 1980's, a severe population decline caused by a root disease was noted within the disjunct population. Due to this serious threat, a comprehensive conservation strategy for Pacific dogwood in Idaho was initiated. Part of this strategy concentrated on preserving this unique disjunct population and its potentially valuable (including commercial) gene pool through seed collection and long-term storage.

  • The Effects of Wildland Fire and Other Disturbances on the Nonnative Tree Paulownia Tomentosa and Impacts on Native Vegetation
    The Effects of Wildland Fire and Other Disturbances on the Nonnative Tree Paulownia tomentosa and Impacts on Native Vegetation THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Angela R. Chongpinitchai Graduate Program in Environment and Natural Resources The Ohio State University 2012 Master's Examination Committee: Roger Williams, Advisor Joanne Rebbeck David Hix Stephen Matthews Copyrighted by Angela Rose Chongpinitchai 2012 Abstract Increases in nonnative plant species to ecosystems of the United States have become a concern for the management of natural vegetation and ecological processes. Many exotic plant species are invasive, rapidly colonizing an area and spreading beyond the point of introduction. Nonindigenous plants can change the dynamics of soil properties, alter fire regimes, and interrupt ecological processes, such as nutrient and hydrologic cycles. These exotic plants often have a competitive edge over native species, due to adaptations in their native geographical range or because of a lack of natural predators in introduced habitats. Changes to microclimate conditions and direct competition from exotic plants often lead to a decrease in species richness in a habitat. Although this has been an issue for decades, little is known about many exotic plant species, particularly how they interact with natural vegetation in introduced habitats. Increased anthropogenic activity, such as logging, road construction, and prescribed burns, tends to facilitate invasions of exotic species by creating disturbed areas and reducing biodiversity. Paulownia tomentosa, a tree native to China, was first introduced to the U.S. in the 1840s as an ornamental; in recent decades the species has expanded its range since escaping cultivation.

  • Princess-Tree (Paulownia Tomentosa)
    New Plant Invaders to Watch For Princess-tree (Paulownia tomentosa) The Threat: Princess-tree is a small to medium sized deciduous tree that can grow 30 to 60 feet tall. It has been planted as an ornamental but has been found to escape and colonize natural areas. Seeds are spread by wind and water. It’s ability to sprout from buds on stems and roots enhance its ability to survive, spread, and out-compete native plant species. Massachusetts is near the northern limit for winter hardiness of princess-tree and projected climate warming may allow this species to proliferate here. Large (up to 12 or more inches long) heart-shaped, broadly oval, or slightly lobed leaves are arranged in pairs along the stem. The underside of the leaves are hairy. Flowers are pale violet or whitish, tubular with five petals, and open in the Photo: James H. Miller, USDA Forest Service, spring.
