Received: 14 December 2018; Accepted: 28 February 2019; Published: 19 March 2019 Abstract: Per and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are a huge class of Contaminants of Emerging Concern, well-known to be persistent, bioaccumulative and toxic. They have been detected in different environmental matrices, in wildlife and even in humans, with drinking water being considered as the main exposure route. Therefore, the present study focused on the estimation of PFAS in the Metropolitan Area of Turin, where SMAT (Società Metropolitana Acque Torino S.p.A.) is in charge of the management of the water cycle and the development of a tool for supporting “smart” water quality monitoring programs to address emerging pollutants’ assessments using multivariate spatial and statistical analysis tools. A new “green” analytical method was developed and validated in order to determine 16 different PFAS in drinking water with a direct injection to the Ultra High Performance Liquid Chromatography tandem Mass Spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) system and without any pretreatment step.

    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.

Box 23, 6700 AA Wageningen, The Netherlands d IPGRI, via delle Sette Chiese 142, 00145 Rome, Italy Abstract - The European black poplar is a pioneer tree species of the riparian ecosys- tem. Its natural habitat is exposed to anthropogenic alteration. Overexploitation of the trees, and interaction with a narrow-based cultivated gene pool also contribute to the decline of the species. National programmes for the conservation of Populus nigra exist in most European countries, and it was elected as one of the pilot species in the EUFORGEN programme. The strategies developed in 17 European countries over the species range, and 3 years of collaborative efforts within the EUFORGEN P. nigra Network are reviewed here. The conservation strategies need to be adapted to the biological characteristics and ecological requirements of black poplar. Applied conser- vation includes ex situ methods for the conservation of genotypes, and, for long-term gene conservation, in situ management of sites in relation to the preexisting natural reserves, or dynamic conservation in the framework of poplar breeding programmes. The social and cultural impact of poplars also interfere with applied conservation. © Inra/Elsevier, Paris Populus / genetic resources / conservation strategy Résumé - Conservation d’une espèce forestière pionnière, Populus nigra I., En Europe.

  • Santa Ana Pueblo Cottonwood Growth Studies
    Cottonwood Growth and Bosque Restoration Along the Middle Rio Grande at Santa Ana Pueblo, NM Middle Rio Grande Bosque Initiative 2005 Cottonwood Growth and Restoration Along the Middle Rio Grande at Santa Ana Pueblo, NM Esteban Muldavin P.I., Amanda Browder, and Elizabeth Milford New Mexico Natural Heritage Program Museum of Southwestern Biology University of New Mexico January 2005 ABSTRACT The effects on the growth of Rio Grande cottonwood (Populus deltoides ssp. wislizeni) following the understory removal of exotic trees and shrubs from stands along the Rio Grande at Santa Ana Pueblo, NM was addressed in the context of river discharge and precipitation. Complete understory removal of Russian olive (Elaeagnus angustifolia) and saltcedar (Tamarisk ramosissima) was conducted in 1998 in two stands while two adjacent stands received limited or no thinning. Dendro-ecological methods were applied to measure annual cottonwood tree growth between 1979 and 2002 and then post-treatment growth from 1998 through 2002 was compared between cleared and uncleared stands relative to the previous twenty years. While all four stands superficially looked to be of similar ages, they in fact were established nearly a decade apart beginning around 1939 and becoming progressively younger downstream and as the active channel was approached. The youngest stand was established around 1959. There were definite patterns of growth that corresponded to extremes in growing-season river discharge as regulated by Cochiti Dam (40 km upstream), and, to a limited degree, antecedent winter precipitation. But these factors were not entirely consistent and distance from the river, channel incision, groundwater patterns, soils differences, and tree age, along with intra-annual variation in water availability and temperature may be important.

  • The Infestation Degree of Trees with Common Mistletoe Viscum Album L
    Journal of Ecological Engineering Volume 18, Issue 6, Nov. 2017, pages 80–85 DOI: 10.12911/22998993/76831 Research Article THE INFESTATION DEGREE OF TREES WITH COMMON MISTLETOE VISCUM ALBUM L. AND THEIR HEALTH STATUS (ON THE EXAMPLE OF PRASZKA CITY) Elżbieta Gołąbek1, Jarosław Sławiński1 1 Department of Land Protection, University of Opole, Oleska 22, 45-052 Opole, Poland, e-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] Received: 2017.09.03 ABSTRACT Accepted: 2017.10.01 The research was carried out in September and October 2013. Their main aim was to Published: 2017.11.01 obtain the information on the abundance and distribution of the common mistletoe in Praszka, assess the health status of the trees infested with this semi-parasite, and to determine its impact on the health of the hosts. All the trees with mistletoe were exam- ined (in terms of the species, the number of semiparasite shrubs, the host health). The distribution and density hosts were presented on a prepared network with an area of 1 ha and Pearson’s correlation factor was used to determine the relationship between the infestation degree of a host and its state of health. Only the typical subspecies of mistletoe – Viscum album L. subsp. album, which occupied 11 species of trees were found in the city of Praszka. These were mainly: black poplar Populus nigra L., small- leaved lime Tilia cordata L. and black locust Robinia pseudoacacia L. (they are also the most common or the frequent hosts in the country). The distribution of mistletoe in the city is uneven, and this is mainly due to the degree of urbanization, sunshine, noise, occurrence of the most common hosts as well as the presence of birds.
