Long-term studies in deciduous-coniferous forest, which has arisen during secondary regenerative succession on the felled area of the middle-aged bilberry spruce forest of the middle taiga of the Komi Republic, were carried out. Real data on changing morphological parameters and phytomass of...

Objective: Plants secondary metabolites with antibacterial and antioxidant activities were screened to provide theoretical basis for the development and utilization of Apocynaceae and Euphorbiaceae plants. Method: This study focused on five common Apocynaceae plants and four common Euphorbiaceae...

In this study, Quercus acutissima seedlings were subjected to drought for 30 days then analyzed to determine their response to water deficit. The growth phenotype, chlorophyll fluorescence response, fresh weight, dry weight, photosynthetic pigment levels, soluble sugar content, and malondialdehyde...

This paper deals with the management of Mediterranean Planted Conifer Forests (MPCF), dominated by the aleppo pine Pinus halepensis and the potential for using natural regeneration as a basis for transformation of simply structured even-aged and mono crops plantations into mixed forest. We studied...

The destruction of natural resources in the Amazon, caused by the building of new roads and the implementation of large agricultural, timber, mineral extraction and energy production projects impaired the socioeconomic and environmental development in the places they were implemented. Brazil nut...

This paper presents the research results of the performance of the loader Volvo 4500 BM (front-end loader) in timber loading in Northern Iran. To evaluate the current loading operations in Hyrcanian forest and possibility of finding out the better techniques and group organization, the empirical...

The basic premise of this research was to assess the ethnomedicinal uses of plants in an ancestral forest area at Naawan, Misamis Oriental and determine its inhibition effect against bacterial strains. The assessment of plants was conducted using the transect-plot method. Ethnomedicinal uses and...

The present study was undertaken to contribute to the continuous search for efficient protocol for the macropropagation of Lannea coromandelica. It investigates the main factors involved in the macropropagation process, namely cutting type, rooting medium composition and rooting hormones at nursery ...

Canopy gap characteristics were investigated in a reserved oriental beech (Fagus orientalis Lipsky) stand in the Caspian forests, northern Iran. Seventy six percent canopy gaps were sampled at 5 transects of 625 to 2000 m parallel to slope contours. Gap area was estimated using field method of...

Seedlings of mountain birch (Betula pubescens var. tortuosa), were transplanted to a site close to the town Vardø, in the arctic part of the Varanger area in northernmost Norway. The site is partly snow-free, sheltered by a willow thicket, and partly on an exposed ditched peat bog with thick snow...
