The aim of this research was to determine the survival rate, dimensions, and wood quality of black locust, ash-leaf maple, common maple, and American ash introduced to the landfill of the “Adamów” Power Plant as part of the reclama...

The seed predator Argyresthia conjugella Zeller has rowan as its preferred host plant. In years of poor fruiting in rowan, it oviposits on apples. To improve the knowledge of this apple pest, rowanberries were collected from localities all over Norwa...

Phytoremediation using woody plants can effectively reduce heavy metal (HM) concentrations in soils. However, the remediation capacity of woody plants depends greatly on plant species and soil environmental conditions. In order to evaluate the HM rem...

Agroforestry systems (AFS) are priority semi-natural ecosystems in fragile ecological zones. The complexity and diversity of their species structure play a crucial role in maintaining AFS stability. To explore the optimization of improvement strategi...

In this study, the effect of different planting combinations on the amino acid concentration in the pericarp of Zanthoxylum planispinum ‘dintanensis’ (hereafter referred to as Z. planispinum) was studied, and the response of amino acid co...

Identifying the feedback relationship between soil erosion and vegetation growth would contribute to sustainable watershed management. In order to study the long-term interaction between soil erosion and vegetation change, a comprehensive modeling fr...

Mulberry (Morus, Moraceae) is an important economic plant that is considered zinc-rich. Zinc (Zn) is a micronutrient that plays vital roles in various bio-processes in plants and animals. In the present study, a comparative transcriptome analysis ass...

Gap size is one of the main variables used to quantify the environmental consequences of forest management that can help in quantifying and monitoring changes in clearing areas. This study aimed to characterize gaps from harvested individuals, quanti...

Background: Dracaena cinnabari is a monocot species that does not form annual tree rings; thus, its age can only be estimated. This species is threatened by low natural regeneration, with an evident absence of younger individuals most likely caused b...

Formaldehyde emission from cellulosic materials is an important consideration, especially for wood products, which are regulated by many countries in terms of legislation and may affect the health of users. In this study, molecular dynamics simulatio...
