The anatomy of a one-year-old vertical normal stem of apple var. Lord Lamboume was compared with that of a comparable stem infected with rubbery wood virus and with that of a normal stem caused to undergo an anatomical georeaction by bending it at right angles to the vertical. The stem anatomy of 5-year-old orchard trees showing rubbery wood symptoms was compared with that of comparable normal trees. Staining reactions and investigations using light, polarizing and ultra-violet microscopes, and X-ray diffraction techniques established the anatomical identity of rubbery and georeaction wood.Rubbery wood resembled georeaction wood in having a lignin content less than that of normal wood. It differed from georeaction wood in that oxidation of its lignin produced a molar ratio of syringaldehyde to vanillin which was less than that from normal wood lignin. Rubbery wood gave a yield of milled wood lignin greater than that of normal wood. This suggests that the lignin of rubbery wood is less firmly bound to the polysaccharide framework. This could account for the greater flexibility of rubbery wood. 相似文献

Adventitious rooting in dormant hardwood cuttings of MM. 106 apple rootstock was depressed by latent infection with five viruses, viz. rubbery wood, stem pitting, epinasty and decline, chlorotic leaf spot and platycarpa scaly bark viruses.Both the number of rooted cuttings and the number of roots per rooted cutting were reduced, and fewer unrooted cuttings remained alive, thus representing a further potential loss.The production of shoots suitable for use as cuttings was decreased from infected hedges, as was the ability of cuttings subsequently to become established and grow in the nursery. 相似文献

Stains used to detect incomplete lignification in apple cv. Lord Lambourne when infected with the apple rubbery wood virus (RWV) included gentian violet, methyl red in water or in dilute HC1, and phloroglucinol in concentrated HC1 or in ethanol. Of the five procedures, phloroglucinol in HC1 was preferred. Some staining methods detected RWV infection in Lord Lambourne trees or shoots which did not exhibit the usual weeping symptom; they did not detect virus in other varieties infected with RWV. High summer temperatures did not prevent expression of obvious symptoms in the Lord Lambourne virus indicator with respect to most of the sources or strains of the virus. 相似文献

Five years’ experiments with apomictic apple seedling rootstock selections budded with apple cultivars have shown that incompatibility in Malus sieboldii, M. sargenti, M. hupehensis and their derivatives is mainly due to high sensitivity of the species rootstocks to viruses latent in commercial apple cultivars. The yields of maiden trees from rootstocks which were budded with material that was virus-free, infected with ‘latent’ viruses and infected with ‘latent’ viruses plus rubbery wood virus were 67%, 28% and 16%, respectively. There were, however, differences in the sensitivity reaction between the rootstocks tested. Fairly good compatibility with scions infected with ‘latent’ viruses was observed in the M. sieboldii root- stock selections 4542, 4556 and 4608 and in M. hupehensis. 相似文献

Background
There is an increasing demand for renewable resources to replace fossil fuels. However, different applications such as the production of secondary biofuels or combustion for energy production require different wood properties. Therefore, high-throughput methods are needed for rapid screening of wood in large scale samples, e.g., to evaluate the outcome of tree breeding or genetic engineering. In this study, we investigated the intra-specific variability of lignin and energy contents in extractive-free wood of hybrid poplar progenies (Populus trichocarpa × deltoides) and tested if the range was sufficient for the development of quantitative prediction models based on Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Since lignin is a major energy-bearing compound, we expected that the energy content of wood would be positively correlated with the lignin content. 相似文献8.
Suitability of wood fiber substrate for production of vegetable transplants: I. Physical properties of wood fiber substrates 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Several experiments were conducted with the objective to find suitable alternatives for peat substrates. Physical properties of wood fiber substrates in comparison to other organic substrates were examined. Volume weight, total pore space, pore size distribution, available water, container and air capacity, saturated hydraulic conductivity and volume loss of these substrates were determined. Wood fiber substrates showed a similar volume weight and total pore space as peat substrates, but lower water retention. Particularly the drainage performance of wood substrates results in a quick drainage of surplus water. An increase of volume weight caused a decrease of total pore space, air content and saturated hydraulic conductivity and an increase in water retention. Evaluation of these parameters under container conditions is critical since they are directly related to irrigation and therefore to plant growth. A compression of wood fiber substrates in the pots is recommended to minimize substrate loss. An increase of compression levels reduced the volume loss to almost 0 vol.%. The effect of wood fiber substrates and their volume weight on plant growth will be reported in a second paper. 相似文献

Relationships of dead wood patterns with biophysical characteristics and ownership according to scale in Coastal Oregon,USA 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Dead wood patterns and dynamics vary with biophysical factors, disturbance history, ownership, and management practices; the
relative importance of these factors is poorly understood, especially at landscape to regional scales. This study examined
current dead wood amounts in the Coastal Province of Oregon, USA, at multiple spatial scales. Objectives were to: (1) describe
current regional amounts of several characteristics of dead wood; (2) compare dead wood amounts across ownerships; (3) determine
the relative importance, according to spatial scale, of biophysical and ownership characteristics, to regional dead wood abundance.
Dead wood plot data were evaluated with respect to explanatory variables at four spatial scales of resolution: plots, subwatersheds,
watersheds and subbasins. The relationships of dead wood characteristics with biophysical attributes and ownership were diverse
and scale-specific. Region-wide dead wood abundance and types varied among ownerships, with public lands typically having
higher amounts of dead wood and more large dead wood than private lands. Regression analysis of total dead wood volume indicated
that ownership was important at the subbasin scale. Growing season moisture stress was important at plot, subwatershed, and
watershed scales. Topography was important at the two coarser scales. Multivariate analysis of dead wood gradients showed
that ownership was important at all scales, topography at the subbasin scale, historical vegetation at watershed and subbasin
scales, and current vegetation at plot and subwatershed scales. Management for dead wood and related biodiversity at watershed
to landscape scales should consider the distinct dynamics of snags and logs, the importance of historical effects, and the
relevance of ownership patterns. 相似文献

A review of apple canker caused by Neonectria ditissima is presented for Northwestern Europe with a focus on the Lower Elbe region (Northern Germany). Whereas conidia released by rainsplash are produced mainly from spring to autumn, the liberation of wind-borne ascospores peaks in autumn and/or early spring. Infection occurs via natural as well as pruning-induced wounds, some of which are present throughout the year. Autumnal leaf scars are the most frequent entry point for N. ditissima. Wounds on tree trunks, especially bark cracks in the crotch regions, are potentially even more serious because cankers on trunks and leader shoots commonly cause the total loss of a tree. Surface moisture is a prerequisite for leaf scar infections but possibly not for an entry through other wounds. Irrespective of the entry route, successful infection of a wound requires a mass inoculum of at least 50–100 conidia or ascospores. Infections of trees originating in nurseries may enter a state of latency from which they can break out up to 3 years after the trees have been explanted into the production orchard. Streaks of brown wood discolourations can be caused both by systemic colonisation of the xylem by N. ditissima and by winter frost damage. Apple varieties may show pronounced differences in their sensitivity to canker. For highly susceptible varieties, this disease can be a major production-limiting factor. Flower infections by N. ditissima commonly lead to a pre-harvest rot at the blossom end of the fruit, whereas infections of the growing fruit before harvest lead to a storage rot. Rigorous pruning is an essential canker control measure. Chemical control during the growing season is achieved by apple scab fungicides such as dithianone, captan or dodine. At leaf fall and in winter, copper fungicides are indispensible for controlling canker on highly susceptible varieties in Northern Germany. 相似文献

The retention and release of major nutrients by New Zealand peats and wood wastes was studied over 24 weeks in an incubation experiment. Irish sphagnum peat was included for comparison. The treatments consisted of fertilized and unfertilized materials. The samples were extracted with water using a 1 : 1.5 (v/v) ratio. Retention of N was low for all peats, but noticeably high for bark and wood shavings after 3 weeks. At 24 weeks, the peats retained less than 20%, while the wood wastes retained 35–68% of the applied N. There was little or no release of N by any material. Retention of P was also low for N.Z. peats (except Cambridge), although not as low as for Irish peat, but again high for bark and wood slavings. Retention of K was higher for peats than for wood wastes. Wood wastes contain more water-soluble K than peat. 相似文献

Arborists and managers of amenity trees could benefit from an improved understanding of how tree canopies withstand loading events such as wind, snow or ice. Knowledge of how material properties change along tree branches is important in understanding how a branch tips can bend in the wind yet resist displacement at the base which could lead to branch failure. Limited knowledge of modulus of elasticity (E or stiffness) in branch wood is available in the literature and is typically measured at only one location on a branch. This study investigated variation of E and density-specific E (E/ρ) at five locations along the axis of 20 branches from seven trees. E and E/ρ were found to be 70% lower at the branch tips than in the proximal locations. The variation in E was negatively correlated with the percentage of tissue area composed of vessels and positively correlated with mean fiber cell wall size, suggesting a balance between the two principle functions of hydraulics and mechanics. Reaction wood was observed in the form of gelatinous layers in fibers along the branch tops, but did not result in a difference in E between the top and bottoms at each branch location. It is proposed that differences in material properties are probably related to wood development type, as juvenile wood is considered to have lower stiffness than mature wood. 相似文献

SummaryThe influence of wood age, fruiting position and leaf area within the tree canopy on fruit mineral content and quality for several apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) cultivars was investigated. Size and Ca, Mg and K content of individual fruit on one-year (lateral and terminal positions), two-year and older than three-year wood were compared for cvs Royal Gala, Braeburn, Granny Smith and Fuji. Fruit on two-year spurs and one-year terminals was generally larger at commercial harvest than that on one-year laterals and spurs older than three years. Flower receptacles at full bloom were larger and fruit growth rates were greater from 60 to 100 d after full bloom on two-year spurs than on one-year laterals. Fruit Ca and Mg concentrations and contents at commercial harvest were highest for terminal fruit, but there was no consistent difference between fruit from other positions. One-year terminals had the greatest primary and bourse leaf areas, two-year spurs were intermediate and one-year laterals had the lowest areas of both leaf types. Removal of 50% of primary leaves and/or removal of bourse shoots from clusters at bloom reduced fruit Ca content at commercial harvest for two-year spurs, one-year laterals and one-year terminals. Bourse shoot removal also reduced Mg content for all positions. However there was no effect of leaf removal on fruit size or K content. Ca content of individual fruit increased curvilinearly with increasing total spur leaf area for fruit on two-year spurs and one-year terminals but not for fruit on one-year lateral clusters. Terminal fruit with total spur leaf areas and fruit size similar to those on two-year spur fruit had higher Ca content. 相似文献

We present a software application suitable for studies of the decay in trees. The application implements the storage of measurements of stem characteristics (related to decay) and visualization of the three-dimensional (3D) structural model of tree stems and branches built using this material. The application has been constructed on the basis of an existing architectural model of trees. A set of photographs taken from discs cut from felled trees works as the input for the application. The user will define, using the application, the contours of the areas of interest (e.g. healthy wood, decayed wood and cavity) manually in the photographs of stem or branch cross sections. The application then builds a 3D structural model of stem and/or branches on the basis of the input. It is possible to study visually the composition of the stem and/or branches of different types of wood. This helps to evaluate the location of potential hazard and its relation to existing damage in tree stems and branches. 相似文献

Needle drill resistance measurement devices (NDRMDs) are often used during tree hazard assessment campaigns to detect and measure the extent of wood decay and other defects of wood in trees, despite of the possibility of transmission of potentially pathogenic microbial inoculum from tree to tree through unclean needles. Here, we describe a disposable connectable to NDRMDs through an adapter and we report on its efficacy not only at disinfecting the needle, thus reducing the likelihood of disease transmission, but also at collecting wood samples for bioptic purposes, whose subsequent analysis may be pivotal for, or allow to refine, the prognosis. The complete efficacy of the disposable at disinfecting the needle was determined through three different experiments conducted under controlled conditions in vitro and in vivo using both wood decay fungi and the canker stain pathogen of plane trees, and under field conditions. The disposable combined with NDRMD proved to be as effective as state-of-the-art drilling methods at collecting wood samples for subsequent PCR-based molecular diagnosis of wood decay fungi (Fisher’s exact test for count data; P = 4.846 × 10−7) as determined through comparative sampling and diagnostic assays on 42 trees. The disposable allows not only for a routinely, complete and fully standardized disinfection of the needle, but also provides the opportunity to automatically and efficiently collect bioptic wood samples for subsequent phytopathological analyses. 相似文献
