ABSTRACT HALL, KEVIN BROWN. Modeling The ABSTRACT HALL, KEVIN BROWN. Modeling the Actual Productivity of Eucalyptus benthamii in the Southeastern United States. (Under the direction of Jose Stape). Eucalyptus species have been investigated as viable production forest species in the southeastern United States for more than 40 years. A frost tolerant Eucalyptus species with reduced climatic limitations would allow forest companies and landowners to plant Eucalyptus on a larger scale over a greater geographic range. Initial trials in the 1960s resulted in the establishment of Eucalyptus plantations in southern Florida with tropical species such as E.grandis, E.robusta, E.camaldulensis and E.tereticornis. Later trials in the 1970s and 1980s showed some promising growth and survival of E.viminalis, E.nova- anglica, E.macarthurii and E.camphora in states such as Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina. However, several hard, freezes in 1983 and 1984 caused severe damage to many of the trials ultimately ending these efforts. Since that time, forest companies around the world have had success with Eucalyptus in temperate and subtropical areas. As demand hardwood fiber grew, the planted area expanded into colder regions (e.g. southern region of Latin America, Europe and South Africa), resulting in breeding efforts focused on frost tolerant Eucalyptus. In recent Eucalyptus frost tolerant trials established by NCSU/ Forest Productivity Cooperative (FPC), E.benthamii has shown superior growth rates as well as frost tolerance for USDA Cold Hardness Zones 8 to 9. Also, the current research efforts of the NCSU/FPC, several US based companies have shown interested in E.benthamii as a feed stock resulting in a variety of research trials and pilot plantations across the SE US. Similarly, available plot-level data for E.benthamii are disjunct. The aggregation of these data can provide valuable information for assessing the growth of E.benthamii across the SE US. The aim of this project is to develop volumetric and biomass growth and yield models to characterize the current performance of E.benthamii in the SE US. During 2012-2013, a network of one hundred permanent inventory plots of E.benthamii ranging from ten months to 13 years in age across seven states (AL, GA, LA, SC, TX and NC) were established. These plots range in size from 100 to 400 m2 and all diameters at breast height and total stem height were measured. Site quality was established by developing a site index guide curve using age and mean dominant height. Site index with a base age of six years for E.benthamii in the SE US ranged from six to 21 meters. Functions for mean dominant height and stand basal area based on age were developed to project each stand variable through time. Yield tables for volume, green weight and biomass, in metric units, were developed by using the combined- variable of mean dominant height and stand basal area for each age class. Eucalyptus benthamii and six other cold-tolerant Eucalyptus species were measured weekly for one-year while climate data during the winter months was measured hourly. The behavior of Eucalyptus cold-tolerant species was evaluated to obtain insight on growth controls over the winter months in the SE US. Eucalyptus species have shown little lag time in expressing the fixed carbon as stem growth. Temperature is the leading climate variable that controls growth of cold-hardy Eucalyptus species. The objective of this study was to examine differences in cold tolerant Eucalyptus rate of biomass accumulation through the winter months and to develop biomass gain by species and the weekly average minimum temperature. © Copyright 2015 Kevin Brown Hall All Rights Reserved Modeling the Actual Productivity of Eucalyptus benthamii in the Southeastern United States by Kevin Brown Hall A thesis submitted to the Graduate Faculty of North Carolina State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Forestry and Environmental Resources Raleigh, North Carolina 2015 APPROVED BY: _______________________________ _______________________________ Jose Stape Bronson Bullock Committee Chair _______________________________ _______________________________ Douglas Frederick Jeff Wright BIOGRAPHY Kevin Brown Hall, son of Walter and Mary Kay Hall, was born in Raleigh, North Carolina on May 14, 1987. When considering an undergraduate degree focus, Kevin’s passion for outdoors and sciences drew his attention to undergraduate Forest Management program at North Carolina State University. Kevin capitalized on opportunities during his undergraduate career at NCSU to gain experience in forest plantations systems by traveling abroad to participate in undergraduate research. In 2012 immediately after completing his undergraduate degree, Kevin began graduate school at NCSU by accepting a study abroad program in Curitiba, Brazil to learn about silvicultural practices of plantation forests in southern Brazil. Kevin completed his graduate work for Master of Science in Forestry with a focus in growth and yield modeling and frost-tolerant Eucalyptus silviculture. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Firstly, I would like to thank my parents, Walter and Mary Kay Hall, for their support and encouragement throughout this process.

    Eucalyptus 2018 17-21 September 2018, Le Corum, Montpellier - France Eucalyptus 2018 Managing Eucalyptus plantations under global changes Abstracts Book Foreword Eucalyptus trees cover about 20 million hectares in more than 90 countries around the world with major centers in Brazil (5.7 m ha), India (3.9 m ha) and China (4.5 m ha). Eucalypts are widely grown in commercial plantations to produce raw material for the industry (pulp and paper, charcoal, sawn timber, wood panels) but also in small woodlots for the production of firewood and charcoal for domestic uses. The considerable expansion of these plantations in recent decades reflects major competitive advantages of eucalypts relative to other tree species in terms of productivity, tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses, wood quality for a wide variety of uses and ability to be managed in coppice. However, the requirements in water and nutrients of eucalypt trees are high to reach high biomass productions and the environmental impact of the silviculture is still a matter of debate. In a context of global changes with more frequent drought events, temperature rise and rapid expansion of pests and diseases, the sustainability of eucalypt plantations is of concern in many regions. Interdisciplinary research is urgently needed to improve the adaptation of eucalypt plantations to global changes. Cirad and I-Site MUSE organize an international conference under the auspices of IUFRO (Division 2.08.03 Improvement and culture of eucalypts and Division 1.02.01 Ecology and silviculture of plantation forests in the tropics) to present recent advances likely to improve the management of eucalypt plantations in tropical, sub-tropical and Mediterranean regions.

Feeding and oviposition preferences of Ctenarytaina spatulata Taylor (Hemiptera, Psyllidae) for Eucalyptus spp. and other Myrtaceae in Brazil. The Australian psyllid, Ctenarytaina spatulata Taylor (Hemiptera, Psyllidae), was first detected in Brazil in 1994, where it was found on drought-affected shoots of Eucalyptus grandis in a plantation located in the northern part of Paraná State. The oviposition and feeding preferences of this psyllid were examined on 19 Eucalyptus species, one Eucalyptus hybrid (Cambiju), three Corymbia species and four native Myrtaceae species (Hexaclames edulis, Marlieria edulis, Plinia trunciflora, and Psydium sp.) under greenhouse conditions. The largest populations of C. spatulata were found on E. robusta and E. pellita, while sizeable infestations were also found on E. urophylla, E. grandis, and the Cambiju hybrid. The plants with the greatest symptoms of damage were E. grandis and E. resinifera. Eucalyptus cinerea, E.

  • CHAPTER 5 Molecular Genetic Diversity of E. Urophylla
    ABSTRACT PAYN, KITT GARNET. Molecular Genetic Diversity and Population Genetic Structure of the Commercially Important Tropical Forest Tree Species Eucalyptus urophylla. (Under the direction of William S. Dvorak.) Eucalyptus urophylla is an economically important plantation tree species in countries with tropical and subtropical climates. Its natural distribution is limited to a series of populations on seven islands of the Sunda archipelago in eastern Indonesia. The largest populations are found on the islands of Timor and Wetar, whereas smaller populations occur on the islands of Alor, Pantar, Lomblen, Adonara and Flores. Of concern is the depletion in the species’ genetic resource, primarily on the latter five islands, as a consequence of land conversion to agriculture. Proficient management of the E. urophylla genetic resource, with respect to both conservation and breeding programs, requires a good understanding of the level of genetic diversity and population genetic structure across the species’ native range. This may be achieved through the application of DNA marker techniques that measure genetic diversity at different levels (e.g. organellar vs. nuclear, or genome-wide vs. gene locus). Historical events such as range expansion and genetic bottlenecks can leave an imprint on contemporary levels of genetic diversity. Therefore, the geographical distribution of chloroplast DNA sequence variation in E. urophylla was studied to gain insight into its historical seed migration routes along the island archipelago. Chloroplast DNA sequence data were obtained from 198 plants broadly representing the native range of the species. Twenty haplotypes were identified. A moderate to high level of chloroplast genetic differentiation (GST = 0.581, NST = 0.724) and significant phylogeographic structure (NST > GST; P < 0.01) were observed, suggesting low levels of recurrent seed-mediated gene flow among the islands.

  • A Population-Genomic and Taxonomic Study of Eucalyptus Argophloia and E
    A population-genomic and taxonomic study of Eucalyptus argophloia and E. bosistoana. Seol-Jong Kim – University of Canterbury Confidential Report for the Specialty Wood Products, Forest Growers Research, NZ Date: October 2019 Publication No: SWP-T089 Doctoral Research Proposal Seol-Jong Kim 1. Title A population-genomic and taxonomic study of Eucalyptus argophloia and E. bosistoana. 2. Summary The New Zealand Dryland Forests Initiative (NZDFI) aims to create plantations of high- value Eucalyptus timber species in dry environments on the east coast of New Zealand. This would enable the sustainable production of naturally-durable hardwood in New Zealand as a substitute for CCA-treated pine and unsustainably harvested tropical hardwoods. For this purpose, Australian seed collections of five promising Eucalyptus species have been used since 2009 to establish progeny trials in New Zealand. These trials are used to select and breed plant lines with growth and wood properties that are desirable for the New Zealand environment. As part of this effort, NZDFI is interested in understanding how genomic and environmental variation interact to influence commercially important traits in the NZDFI progeny trials. My PhD research project is a component of this project. Its specific research questions are: 1) what is the taxonomic identity of a morphologically deviating population of E. bosistoana, 2) what is the patterns of genetic diversity and structure of E. argophloia and E. bosistoana, and 3) what is the mating system of E. bosistoana. I aim to address these questions using morphological, DNA sequence and Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) data. To be able to compile the latter data set, we joined the ‘Eucalyptus 65kSNP Axiom array production and deployment initiative’.
