THE NEWSLETTER OF THE INTERNATIONAL OAK SOCIETY&, VOLUME 16, NO. 1, WINTER 2012 Greek OakOak Open Days: News September 26 - October Notes 2, 2011 From the 21st century CE to the 2nd century—BCE! The next morning early we met our large tour bus and its charming and skillful driver, Grigoris, who hails from the mountain village of Gardiki not far from here. We did a bit of leisurely botanizing before we reached Perdika, our first destination of the day. There are two reasons to visit Perdika: one is the Karavostasi beach, a curving strand with golden sand, and the archaeological site of Dymokastron, a Hellenis- tic mountain-top town reached by a steep hike. The view of the beach far below was beautiful, as it must have been when the town was still inhabited. The town was destroyed in 167 BCE by a Roman army, along with most of the other towns in the vicinity, all allied with Rome’s enemy, Macedonia. The site is under active excavation, and we were able to admire the remnants of protective walls (how in the world did they get those big stones up there?), building foundations, and cisterns, which were certainly needed in case of a prolonged siege, Some members of the IOS Greek tour relaxing under the plane tree in the which Dymocastron must have experienced more than once. village square.

Introduction. In the discovery of more potent and selective anticancer drugs, the research continually expands and explores new bioactive metabolites coming from diferent natural sources. Gallnuts are a group of very special natural products formed through parasitic interaction between plants and insects. Tough it has been traditionally used as a source of drugs for the treatment of cancerous diseases in traditional and folk medicinal systems through centuries, the anticancer properties of gallnuts are barely systematically reviewed. Objective. To evidence the traditional uses and phytochemicals and pharmacological mechanisms in anticancer aspects of gallnuts, a literature review was performed. Materials and Methods. Te systematic review approach consisted of searching web-based scientifc databases including PubMed, Web of Science, and Science Direct. -

Eco-Pastoral Diagnosis in the Karaburun Peninsula 15 to 22 May 2016 Conclusions and Strategic Issues for Natural Protected Areas

This project is dedicated to foster rural development in mountainous regions through the construction of Signs of quality and origin (SIQO). One of its main outputs was to shed the light on the pastoral and localized livestock systems in Albania and in Balkans’ surrounding countries, as a central issue for biodiversity conservation through the maintenance of High Nature Value farming systems. They are an important component of European agriculture not only for the conservation of biodiversity, but also for cultural heritage, quality products, and rural employment. The core experience of this project was (and still is) the creation of a Protected Geographical Indication on the “Hasi goat kid meat” based on stakeholders collective action and knowledge brokering. During that learning process and to effectively enforce the relation between rural development and biodiversity conservation, we used an original Ecological and Pastoral diagnosis method, imported from an EU Life+ program (Mil’Ouv, 2013-2017). This method seeks to improve pastoral resources management in a way that is both environmentally sustainable and efficient from an economic perspective. -
The Wood Cross Sections of Hermann Nördlinger (1818–1897)
IAWA Journal, Vol. 29 (4), 2008: 439–457 THE WOOD CROSS SECTIONS OF HERMANN NÖRDLINGER (1818–1897) Ben Bubner Leibniz-Zentrum für Agrarlandschaftsforschung (ZALF) e.V., Institut für Landschaftsstoffdynamik, Eberswalder Str. 84, 15374 Müncheberg, Germany [E-mail: [email protected]] SUMMARY Hermann Nördlinger (1818–1897), forestry professor in Hohenheim, Germany, published a series of wood cross sections in the years 1852 to 1888 that are introduced here to the modern wood anatomist. The sec- tions, which vary from 50 to 100 μm in thickness, are mounted on sheets of paper and their quality is high enough to observe microscopic details. Their technical perfection is as remarkable as the mode of distribution: sections of 100 wood species were presented in a box together with a booklet containing wood anatomical descriptions. These boxes were dis- tributed as books by the publisher Cotta, from Stuttgart, Germany, with a maximum circulation of 500 per volume. Eleven volumes comprise 1100 wood species from all over the world. These include not only conifers and broadleaved trees but also shrubs, ferns and palms representing a wide variety of woody structures. Excerpts of this collection were also pub- lished in Russian, English and French. Today, volumes of Nördlingerʼs cross sections are found in libraries throughout Europe and the United States. Thus, they are relatively easily accessible to wood anatomists who are interested in historic wood sections. A checklist with the content of each volume is appended. Key words: Cross section, wood collection, wood anatomy, history. INTRODUCTION Wood scientists who want to distinguish wood species anatomically rely on thin sec- tions mounted on glass slides and descriptions in books that are illustrated with micro- photographs. -

1 Trees: Structure and Function Vol 31: 1571-1581, 2017
Biotechnological efforts for the propagation of Quercus lusitanica Lam., an endangered species Trees: Structure and Function vol 31: 1571-1581, 2017 San José MC, Martínez MT, Cernadas MJ, Montenegro R, Mosteiro F, Corredoira E Group of Biotechnology and Forestry Improvement. Instituto de Investigaciones Agrobiológicas de Galicia. CSIC. Avda. de Vigo s/n. 15705 Santiago de Compostela, Spain. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract This is the first time that a simple protocol is presented for the micropropagation and short-term conservation of Quercus lusitanica, an endemic and endangered species that is found in very restricted habitats of the Iberian Peninsula and North Africa. Branch segments from 15-20-year-old trees were forced-flushed, and the forced shoots were used as a source of explants for culture initiation. The best multiplication rates were obtained on Woody Plant Medium (WPM) supplemented with 0.1 mg l-1 benzyladenine for the genotype CDL, or 0.2 mg l-1 benzyladenine, 0.5 mg l-1 indole acetic acid and 0.2 mg l-1 zeatin in the case of the genotype SC1. Although the cultivation of shoots in the horizontal position improved the proliferation rates, the shoot vitrification was increased under these conditions. The best rooting rates were obtained on half-strength WPM supplemented with 3 mg l-1 indole-3-butyric acid for 7 days with subsequent transfer to auxin-free medium supplemented with 0.4% activated charcoal. An initial 5-day dark period was detrimental to the quality of regenerated plantlets. Well-acclimatized plantlets were transferred to the field with a 70% survival rate. -

Florestal, Dr., Centro das Engenharias, UFPel, Pelotas, RS, Brasil - [email protected] Recebido para publicação: 04/09/2012 – Aceito para publicação: 08/11/2013 Resumo Dentre os métodos que vêm sendo testados para minimizar a lixiviação de compostos de boro na madeira, destaca-se sua combinação com taninos vegetais. Aos taninos vegetais é atribuída a durabilidade natural da madeira de algumas espécies, indicando sua potencialidade como preservativo natural. Neste estudo, avaliou-se o rendimento de taninos condensados provenientes da casca de Mimosa tenuiflora em extração realizada com água destilada, comparando-o ao da extração envolvendo a inclusão de sulfito de sódio, assim como a eficiência de extratos tânicos sulfitados, combinados ou não com ácido bórico, na melhoria da resistência da madeira de Ceiba pentandra ao térmita xilófago Nasutitermes corniger, por meio de ensaio de preferência alimentar. Extrato tânico obtido com a inclusão de sulfito de sódio à água teve melhor rendimento em taninos condensados. De maneira geral, a impregnação da madeira com o extrato tânico sulfitado proporcionou o mesmo comportamento quando comparada à aplicação do ácido bórico, sendo os melhores resultados verificados quando ambos foram utilizados conjuntamente. -
