This expert article describes in detail all the factors that affect the cultivation of quality forest seedlings of narrow-leaved ash for artificial regeneration and afforestation. So far no attention has been paid to the quality of the seedlings given the new and completely changed adverse...

The island of Korcula is located in the south Adriatic Sea and is rich in native flora, with many wild fruit species. The aim of this study was to determine the presence of wild fruit species on the island of Korcula that bear fruit in winter, and the diameter of the fruit. It was found that in the ...

Morphological variability of 25 populations of field maple (Acer campestre L.) in the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina was researched. Morphometric investigation of intrapopulation and interpopulation variability was based on 19 morphological leaf traits, using descriptive and univariate...

Pedunculate oak (Quercus robur L., Fagaceae) is an economically and ecologically valuable species that has almost completely disappeared from the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina due to over-exploitation, and through reintroduction and breeding activities it should be returned and protected in...

This paper presents the results of beech seedling growth under the influence of suboptimal nutrition with nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), magnesium (Mg) and iron (Fe). The aim of the paper was to bring this issue closer to forestry practice through the discussion of the obtained results in the...

Chinese jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill.) is a fruit tree that originates from China. It is cultivated for more than 4000 years. Fruit is a drupe which varies in shape (from round to elongated) and size (from cherry like to plum like). Chinese jujube tree is very specific because of its shoot...

The aim of the study was to determine the total phenolic and flavonoid content, antioxidant activity and mineral composition of the two most commonly grown hazelnut cultivars in Croatia, 'Rimski' and 'Istarski duguljasti'. The following values of bioactive analysis were determined in the kernels of ...

We researched the morphological variability of 25 populations of field maple (Acer campestre L.) in the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Morphometric research of intrapopulation and interpopulation variability was based on ten morphological traits of the fruit, using descriptive and univariate...

Strawberry tree (Arbutus unedo L.) is a typical Mediterranean species that is an indigenous plant in Croatia spreading along the entire Adriatic coast.
