Isolation and characterization of microsatellite markers in Fraser fir (Abies fraseri)

Molecular Ecology Notes, 6(1), 65–68.

By: S. Josserand*, K. Potter n, G. Johnson*, J. Bowen*, J. Frampton n & C. Nelson*

author keywords: conservation genetics; fir; microsatellite DNA
TL;DR: Polymerase chain reaction primers for 14 microsatellite loci from Fraser fir consistently produced simple PCR profiles and were found to be polymorphic among 13 Fraser fir samples, and more than half of these loci were finding to amplify a wide range of samples from several Abies taxa.

Individual tree crown and stand development in Pinus taeda under different fertilization and irrigation regimes

FOREST ECOLOGY AND MANAGEMENT, 234(1-3), 10–23.

By: T. Albaugh n, H. Allen n & T. Fox*

author keywords: stem growth; thinning; pruning; fertilization
TL;DR: Individual tree foliage mass was correlated with branch development and branches in the lower crown half were more likely to die, had a lower carbon balance due to low light and high respiring tissue relative to photosynthesizing tissue and indicated that pruning may be a likely tool to manage crown development and insure that crop trees have a high value stem.

Genetic models of host-pathogen gene interaction based on inoculation of loblolly pine seedlings with the fusiform rust fungus

NEW FORESTS, 31(2), 245–252.

author keywords: artificial inoculation; avirulence genes; bulk segregant analysis; epistasis; Pinus taeda L; rust resistance genes
TL;DR: Loblolly pine seedlings from 12 full-sib families obtained from a six-parent half diallel mating design were challenged in a greenhouse using two basidiospore inocula of the fusiform rust fungus at extremely high spore density, and a genetic model for interaction of two pairs of genes was proposed.

Estimating detection probabilities from multiple-observer point counts

AUK, 123(4), 1172–1182.

By: M. Alldredge n, K. Pollock n & T. Simons n

author keywords: bird surveys; capture-recapture; detection probability; multiple observer; point counts
TL;DR: Although independent-observer methods are expensive and impractical for large- scale applications, it is believed they can provide important insights into the sources and degree of perception bias in avian point-count estimates and may be useful in a two-stage sampling framework to calibrate larger surveys based on single-ob server estimates.

Associations of breeding birds with fire-influenced and riparian-upland gradients in a longleaf pine ecosystem

AUK, 123(4), 1110–1128.

By: J. Allen*, S. Krieger n, J. Walters* & J. Collazo n

author keywords: breeding birds; fire; longleaf pine; Pinus palustris; riparian habitat
TL;DR: The effects of fire history and a riparian-upland gradient on the breeding bird community at Fort Bragg Military Installation in North Carolina determined that fire suppression increased structural diversity of vegetation and promoted one breeding-bird assemblage (fire-suppressed), but at the expense of two others (open longleaf, pocosin).

author keywords: genetic variation; QTN; artificial selection; stabilizing selection; distribution of gene effects; L-shaped distribution
MeSH headings : Animals; Gene Frequency; Genetic Variation; Models, Genetic; Monte Carlo Method; Quantitative Trait, Heritable; Selection, Genetic
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that the distribution of QTN effects among sites can affect additive genetic variation in terms of total additive variance, average gene diversity, per-class contribution of Q TN effects and per-QTN contribution. (via Semantic Scholar)

Soil and pine foliage nutrient responses 15 years after competing-vegetation control and their correlation with growth for 13 loblolly pine plantations in the southern United States

Canadian Journal of Forest Research, 36(10), 2412–2425.

By: J. Miller, H. Allen*, B. Zutter, S. Zedaker & R. Newbold

TL;DR: There was an overall decrease in soil nutrient concentrations after 15 years of pine-plantation management, while C, N, and Ca decreased most after vegeta- tion control and early herbaceous treatments resulted in significantly less foliar N and K at year 15. (via Semantic Scholar)

Bioavailability of slowly cycling soil phosphorus: major restructuring of soil P fractions over four decades in an aggrading forest

OECOLOGIA, 150(2), 259–271.

By: D. Richter*, H. Allen n, J. Li*, D. Markewitz* & J. Raikes*

MeSH headings : Biological Availability; History, 20th Century; Phosphorus / analysis; Phosphorus / history; Soil / analysis; Trees
TL;DR: During 28 years of forest growth, decreases were significant and substantial in slowly cycling Po and Pi associated with Fe and Al oxides and Ca compounds, and these accounted for most of the P supplied to biomass and O horizons, and for buffering labile soil fractions as well.

Root and stem partitioning of Pinus taeda

TREES-STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION, 20(2), 176–185.

By: T. Albaugh n, H. Allen n & L. Kress*

author keywords: rooting depth; soil characteristics; tree diameter; site
TL;DR: Root growth relative to stem growth would need to change with increased mean tree D to explain the results observed here, and stem mass alone does a good job of estimating root mass across sites. (via Semantic Scholar)
