  • Protect Oak Tree Seedlings from Browsing Using Paper Bud Caps
    Field Tip #13 May 2013 PROTECT OAK TREE SEEDLINGS FROM BROWSING USING PAPER BUD CAPS By Doug Hecker, Silviculture Program Forester - Sandstone Depredation by deer on planted and natural oak tree seedlings can be a severe problem. Repeated browsing will restrict growth dramatically, creating very deformed seedlings and saplings, repeated dieback and re-sprouting, and even mortality. After many years of effort to control browsing using balloons, tree shelters, repellants, fencing, and dry wall joint tape, a successful technique, using 4” x 4” bud cap paper, was developed to protect hardwood seedlings. Although effective 65 to 75% of the time, balloons can have negative effects on about one-third of the trees, causing dieback on the terminal bud. A lateral bud then takes over as the new terminal bud, sometimes deforming the shape of the tree. Balloons need to be applied only when conditions are Figure 1: 4 x 4 inch piece of bud cap paper dry. If they are applied after a rain or even a heavy morning due, the terminal bud can rot, and die back. Oak should be bud capped in October, after the leaves have started to senesce; at the point where the leaf starts to turn red, before dropping, or easily pulls off without damaging the leaf cuticle or stem of the tree. This period is usually during the first three weeks of October, before the leaves drop. The seedlings can be capped after leaf drop, however it is easier for crews to identify oak seedlings while the leaves are still on. Oaks tend to retain their leaves even after they change color and become dormant.

  • Plant Terminology
    PLANT TERMINOLOGY Plant terminology for the identification of plants is a necessary evil in order to be more exact, to cut down on lengthy descriptions, and of course to use the more professional texts. I have tried to keep the terminology in the database fairly simple but there is no choice in using many descriptive terms. The following slides deal with the most commonly used terms (more specialized terms are given in family descriptions where needed). Professional texts vary from fairly friendly to down-right difficult in their use of terminology. Do not be dismayed if a plant or plant part does not seem to fit any given term, or that some terms seem to be vague or have more than one definition – that’s life. In addition this subject has deep historical roots and plant terminology has evolved with the science although some authors have not. There are many texts that define and illustrate plant terminology – I use Plant Identification Terminology, An illustrated Glossary by Harris and Harris (see CREDITS) and others. Most plant books have at least some terms defined. To really begin to appreciate the diversity of plants, a good text on plant systematics or Classification is a necessity. PLANT TERMS - Typical Plant - Introduction [V. Max Brown] Plant Shoot System of Plant – stem, leaves and flowers. This is the photosynthetic part of the plant using CO2 (from the air) and light to produce food which is used by the plant and stored in the Root System. The shoot system is also the reproductive part of the plant forming flowers (highly modified leaves); however some plants also have forms of asexual reproduction The stem is composed of Nodes (points of origin for leaves and branches) and Internodes Root System of Plant – supports the plant, stores food and uptakes water and minerals used in the shoot System PLANT TERMS - Typical Perfect Flower [V.

The shoot system is composed of the stem and its lateral appendages: leaves, buds, and flowers. Leaves are arranged in different patterns (phyllotaxis): alternate, opposite, whorled, and spiral. 2. Stems provide support to the leaves, buds, and flowers. They conduct water and nutrients and produce new cells in meristems (shoot apical meristem, primary and secondary meristems). 3. Dicot stems and monocot stems are usually different. Dicot stems tend to have vascular bundles distributed in a ring, whereas in monocot stems they tend to be scattered. 4. Stems are composed of the following: epidermis, cortex and pith, xylem and phloem, and periderm. 5. Secondary xylem is formed by the division of cells in the vascular cambium and is called wood. The bark is composed of all of the tissues outside the vascular cambium, including the periderm (formed from cork cambium) and the secondary phloem.

  • Overview of Flower Bud Induction, Flowering and Fruit Set
    OVERVIEW OF FLOWER BUD INDUCTION, FLOWERING AND FRUIT SET JOSEL. GUARDIOLA Departamentode Biologia Vegetal UniversidadPolitecnica de Valencia,Valencia, Spain Flowering is a critical step in fructification. No flowers meanno fruit, and when flower numberis low crop load may be limited by the numberof flowers formed. In most cases,however, citrus treesform a numberof flowers exceedinglyhigher than the final numberof fruits harvested, whichusually is a very low percentageof the initial flower number.As in other specieswhich form a large amount of flowers, fruit set rather than flower number is the parameterwhich usually determinesyield in citrus. Apart from their importancein the detennination of crop yield, some events occurring during flower formation and set affect fruitlet development and final fruit size and quality, having an additional effect on returns. The study of theseprocesses has not only an academical interest but also an applied aspect. The purpose of this discussion is to review basic knowledge available on the regulation of flowering and fruit set and the way as these processes can be manipulated to the advantage of the grower. The Floral Biology of Citrus Citrus trees usually have severalflushes of growth during the year. The number of flushes and their importance are determinedby cultivar characteristics, crop load and climate. The newly formed shoots arise from lateral resting buds and may form either leaves (vegetative shoots), flowers (generative shoots also called leafless inflorescences), or both flowers and leaves (mixed-type inflorescences). No recognizable flower primordia are found in the resting buds. The earliest signs of flower morphogenesis are detectable at the onset of bud sprouting, and are ensued by the uninterrupted development of the flower organs leading to anthesis.

  • Principal Types of Vegetative Shoot Apex Organization in Vascular Plants1
    PRINCIPAL TYPES OF VEGETATIVE SHOOT APEX ORGANIZATION IN VASCULAR PLANTS1 RICHARD A. POPHAM Department of Botany and Plant Pathology, The Ohio State University, Columbus 10 Before progress can be made in research, a problem must be recognized. Once the problem has been perceived, a research program may be directed toward a solution. The problem of how and where a shoot grows and the organization of the shoot apex was apparently first conceived by Kaspar Friedrich Wolff (1759). Although his observations on the structure, formation, and growth of cells were fantastically inaccurate, he made a great contribution to our knowledge of the growing plant by setting forth a new and important problem. In a very real sense, Wolff is the father of developmental plant anatomy. Disagreement is the life blood of many research problems. Strenuous opposition is often engendered by a dogmatic statement or a theory which is proposed as a universal truth. Opposition to Wolff's (1759) original proposition regarding the organization and growth of shoot apices prompted plant anatomists, some 85 years later, to investigate the truth of the statement. The factual solution of the problem of shoot apex organization had its beginnings in the work of Nageli (1845). Following this work on many lower cryptogams, Nageli concluded that the cells of all tissues of the shoot of cryptogams and higher plants have their genesis in a single apical cell. The new-born apical cell theory supported by Hofmeister (1851) and others provided the impetus for a renewed, vigorous attack on the problem of shoot apex organization. A little later a new proposal, Hanstein's (1868) histogen theory was born of more careful observations and in a mind unfettered by the prevailing fanaticism of the apical cell theorists.
