The present study explored whether a forest gap has the potential to promote the regeneration of C. kawakamii seedlings, and examined favourable locations for seedling regeneration within the gap. Nine sampling gaps were classified into small, medium and large sizes. The number of C. kawakamii, their basal areas and height at four stages (tree, sapling, shrub and seedling) in five locations within the gap (center, south, east, north and west) were determined during the growing season. A significant positive relationship was found between the number ofC. kawakamii and gap area (r = 0.815, p = 0.007), with higher numbers in large gap size (p = 0.031) compared with small gap size. The number of C. kawakamii was predicted by a linear regression model: Number of C. kawakamii = 0.124 × gap area + 10.597, R2 = 0.664. Moreover, the number and size of seedlings in the center of the gap were significantly different (p = 0.041, p = 0.017) from other locations within the gap. Management for C. kawakamii should move forward to provide suitable conditions for regeneration by focusing on the centre and large gap areas. Keywords: Forest gap, seedling regeneration, micro-environment, location within gap INTRODUCTION Forest gap created by forest disturbance is growth (Veblen 1989, Barik et al. 1992, Svenning important in maintaining forest diversity. Gap 2001, Muscolo et al. 2014). creates a micro-environment different from that Castanopsis kawakamii, a member of the of a closed canopy forest, and it is important for Fagaceae family, is an endemic species of southeast species regeneration (Yamamoto 2000). Inside China, particularly in Fujian, Guangdong and the gap area, the micro-environment, such as Jiangxi Province. It is also a native species that is light (Gray et al. 2002), temperature, vapor widely distributed in Taiwan and north Vietnam. pressure deficit, litter moisture (Matlack 1993), The C. kawakamii is categorised as lower risk/ soil water content (Wang et al. 2013) and soil near threatened in The IUCN Red List of chemical properties (Özcan & Gökbulak 2015) Threatened Species (IUCN 1998). Research on differed with the gap size and the location within the population dynamics of this species noted the gap. Gap sizes and locations within the gap that the period of seed and growth were highly have an effect on plant composition and traits, sensitive to disturbances, and the population which is dynamic over time (Kern et al. 2012). mainly exist in matured stages (Liu & Hong The higher survival rate of chestnut (Castanea 1999). The lack of middle stage C. kawakamii dentata) in North American forest was found in causes a decline of the entire population structure gap area, than under the canopy (Dalgleish et al. (Liu et al. 2011), which may soon disappear. As 2015). The quantity demand of resources for each mentioned above, the effect of forest gap on species differ, therefore, micro-environmental species regeneration has encouraged many heterogeneity within the gap encourages species researchers to study C. kawakamii in a natural diversity and supports species regeneration and forest reserve area. © Forest Research Institute Malaysia 39 Journal of Tropical Forest Science 30(1): 39–48 (2018) Buajan S et al. Studies on C. kawakamii in Sanming City rainfall is 1,749 mm. Most of the rainfall Natural Forest Reserve showed that size and (79%) occurs from March to August (Liu development stage of the gap affected the et al. 2009). This C. kawakamii forest in the index which had an effect on species diversity in National Nature Reserve comprises large areas regeneration layers (Liu et al. 2003 & He et al. (approximately 700 ha) of highly pure stands 2012). Studies of microclimate in forest gaps have of C. kawakamii (> 80%)), with an average tree noted that the air temperature, soil temperature age of approximately 150 years (Lin & Qiu and relative humidity in different gap sizes were 1986, Zhang 1993). highly significant, which were higher than canopy area (He et al. 2012a). The higher regeneration Gap areas and environmental factors niche width of C. kawakamii in gaps, than under- measured canopy, shows the improvement of C. kawakamii regeneration (He et al. 2012b). Studies have The naturally formed forest gaps were selected shown that microclimates differ by gap size and using the following sampling method. The location within the gap, and clearly affects C. mother tree distances were controlled, i.e. kawakamii regeneration. However, studies on the every selected gap or under canopy area were most suitable site within the gap for C. kawakamii approximately at a similar distance from the regeneration is still lacking. Relatively, little is mother tree. The gap area was measured by known about favorable locations within the gap taking a photo from the center of each gap, using for C. kawakamii regeneration. Thus, the objectives a fish-eye-lens camera, and calculating the area of this study were 1) to estimate the gap size for by using a computer software (Adobe Illustrator C. kawakamii regeneration and 2) to examine CC 2014). Two hemispherical photographs suitable sites within the gap area for C. kawakamii (THP) method was used to calculate the gap regeneration in the Castanopsis kawakamii Natural areas (Hu & Zhu 2009). The under-canopy Forest Reserve in Sanming City, Fujian Province, areas were selected and plot sizes of 15 m × 15 m China. We expected that 1) gap size may affect the were established. Tree heights around the gaps number of C. kawakamii and 2) the number of C. were approximately 15 to 30 meters. The nine kawakamii will be different in different locations gap areas were classified into three sizes: small, within the gap due to micro-environmental medium and large. The topographical factors heterogeneity. The results from this research and features of each gap are shown in Table 1. In will help to develop a better understanding of gap micro-environmental effects on C. kawakamii each gap, after measuring the width and length regeneration, conservation and management in of the gap, a grid (3 m × 3 m) system was made the C. kawakamii Natural Forest Reserve. to cover the entire gap and canopy areas (Figure. 1). At every point, the environmental factors (air MATERIALS AND METHODS temperature, air humidity and light intensity) were measured. The air temperature and air Site descriptions humidity were measured using TES-1360A handheld digital thermo-hygrometers.

Email: [email protected] (Manuscript received 28 June 2009; accepted 12 October 2009) ABSTRACT: Since insufficient materials of Thismia taiwanensis were collected in the past, the structural details of the annulus, stamens and other characters of this critically endangered species have not been examined. The aim of this study was to determine the characteristics of flowers and fruits, especially those of the perianth tube and stamens, using fresh material. Seed surfaces were photographed by using scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that the flowers of T. taiwanensis were found either without a pedicel or with an elongated pedicel that becomes carnose in the fruit stage. The latter was more common. The perianth is not covered with glands; there are six stamens, which are separate and opposite the perianth lobes, with dilated, ribbon-like connectives, pendulous from annulus. The seeds are ellipsoid to fusiform, with somewhat tapering poles, 0.2-0.4 × 0.1-0.15 mm, and with epidermal cells that are raised, with distinctly longitudinal anticlinal walls and sunken anticlinal boundaries, forming a superficial network pattern.

  • Mountainoaklonghornedbeetle.Pdf
    1 Some other common names for the mountain oak longhorned beetle include the deep mountain longhorn beetle and the oak longhorned beetle. This pest is a polyphagous pest of forests and deciduous trees in central Asia. Information sources: 3, 4, 5, 6 2 The mountain oak longhorned beetle only occurs in Asia including China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam, and Russia. It has recently received attention due to the risk that it will spread to other parts of the globe. Massicus raddei has not yet been detected in the United States. Furthermore, no species of the genus Massicus is known to occur in the United State. Information sources: 3, 4 3 The mountain oak longhorned beetle is a major pest of oaks and chestnuts in Asia but it has been noted on some other hosts. The beetle larvae were most often found in trees with trunks larger than 9cm in diameter. Most literature suggests that’s the larvae target mature hosts and rarely attack younger trees. Primary hosts: oaks (Quercus), chestnuts (Castanea) Other Hosts: Castanopsis cuspidata, Castanopsis cuspidata var. sieboldii, Morus sp., Paulownia sp. Information sources: 4 4 The major damage to the tree results from larvae feeding on the phloem. The mountain oak longhorned beetle larva create galleries in plant tissues. Adults will also feed on the sap flowing from the wounds they inflict on the branches. As a result, the trees can experience crown dieback. According to the literature, it is unsure whether or not this will cause eventual tree death. Nonetheless, it will make the host more susceptible to secondary pests.

  • Oak-Hunting in Japan: Report on the IOS Japan Tour, October 2007
    Oak-hunting in Japan: Report on the IOS Japan Tour, October 2007 Shaun Haddock La Bergerette St. Sardos, Verdun sur Garonne 82600 France [email protected] With an average age of over 65, ten IOS members from eight countries took part in the 2007 tour to Japan from October 5th to 19th, completed at a cost below budget! The tour was instigated and administered by Anke Mattern from Germany. At a meeting in Tokyo Professor Hideaki Ohba of the University of Tokyo (who revised the Quercus section, among others, of the Flora of Japan), had agreed with her to personally show us all 15 native species of oak found in Japan. He arranged the complex logistics necessary for such a wide-ranging but perfectly targeted tour, and his unrivalled contacts ensured that at each venue we were warmly welcomed immediately on arrival and expertly guided thereafter. As a glance at the map will show, Japan consists of a long group of islands stretching from the cold temperate climate of Hokkaido in the northeast to a series of sub-tropical islands leading towards Taiwan in the southwest. Our travels took us from the northwest of Honshu, the main island, through ten degrees of latitude south to the small island of Amami Oshima in order to see every oak species. Japan’s oceanic situation gives it a moist climate, areas receiving ‘only’ 1000mm (equating to nearly 40 inches) of annual rainfall are referred to as ‘dry’, whilst some places soak under 3000mm or more. However, its position on the east side of a continent in a cold sea current makes winter temperatures much colder than the same latitude in Europe/Africa or west coast USA, and more comparable to the US east coast.

Cylindrical stem cores and twigs were collected from early spring through late summer from deciduous (Quercus serrata, Liquidambar styraciflua, and Acanthopanax sciadophylloides), and evergreen (Castanopsis cuspidata; Cin- namomum camphora, Ilex pedunculosa, Symplocos prunifolia, Quercus glauca and Quercus myrsinifolia) species in a temperate forest. The first-formed twig vessels lignified at the time of leaf appearance or before in all species. The timing of stem vessel lignification in relation to leaf appearance in semi-ring- porous deciduous species was overlapping with that of ring-porous deciduous species and diffuse-porous deciduous species. Evergreen species showed a great variation in the timing of stem vessel lignification, relative to leaf flush- ing. The main conclusions are that 1) Vessel lignification occurs much earlier in twigs than in trunks of the same trees, with hardly any overlap between the two; 2) Deciduous trees do not differ much from evergreen species, but there is a weak tendency for evergreen species to have later vessel differentiation than deciduous species; 3) The timing of vessel formation shows little relation with porosity patterns and overlaps between diffuse-porous and ring-porous species.

  • Oakambrosiabeetle.Pdf
    1 The Oak Ambrosia Beetle, Platypus quercivorus, belongs to the wood boring ambrosia beetle Family Platypodidae (2). Platypodidae is a very diverse family with over 1,000 species distributed primarily throughout the tropics (1). Only seven species, all belonging to the genus Platypus, are found in the United States of which four occur in Florida (1). Oak Ambrosia Beetle was first described from specimens in Taiwan in 1925 (4). This beetle is part of a ambrosia beetle-fungus complex, serving as a vector of Japanese Oak Wilt, Raffaelea quercivora , a fungal disease that is devastating several species of oaks in Japan(6). 2 The global distribution of the Oak Ambrosia Beetle is limited to the temperate and subtropical forests of Asia and parts of Oceania (3). The pest is widespread throughout Japan. However, populations are also present in Bengal (India), Java (Indonesia), Papua New Guinea, and Taiwan (2). 3 This host map created by USDA-APHIS-PPQ-CPHST in the 2011 Exotic Wood Borer and Bark Beetle National Survey Manual illustrates the potential risk of Oak Ambrosia Beetle distribution based on the density of host acreage in different counties (11). Note the higher relative risk along the Atlantic seaboard and southeastern US. USDA-APHIS-PPQ-CPHST and NCSU cooperators are working to revise the NCSU/APHIS Plant Pest Forecast System, a tool which will be able to combine available distribution and survey data for the purpose of predicting the potential distribution of pests and diseases in new areas. CPHST is also revising the Exotic Wood Borer and Bark Beetle National Survey Manual as part of the Cooperative Agricultural Pest Survey (CAPS) Program.

There were few direct monitoring techniques to elucidate the following hypotheses: (a) self-thinning may govern the stand development process and (b) wood production decline can be observed during secondary succession in a lucidophyllous forest. We conducted a long-term study at a permanent plot in central Japan, since 1989. The forest consists mainly of Castanopsis cuspidata in a canopy layer, Cleyera japonica, and Eurya japonica in a subtree layer. During the 28-year period, the basal area of the stand significantly increased due to the growth of C.
