The monomeric composition of the extracts differed significantly: for the 0.05% NaOMe, only alkanoic acids and diacids were found; the yield of v-hydroxy acids increased with reactant concentration, as well as alkanols and ferulic acid. Results from light scattering, SEC and MALDI-MS showed that soluble oligomeric fragments containing suberinic acids were present in the methanolysis mixture.

An increasing trend from the best to the worst quality classes was found for features related to area of pores (i.e. maximum length and width or pore maximum area) and concentration variables (i.e. porosity coefficient or number of pores per 100 cm(2)). Shape variables were rather constant and mean values showed no differences between quality classes. Variation of the pores characteristics within each quality class was large especially in the mid-quality range. Therefore there were no statistically significant differences to allow the isolation of the all quality classes and overlapping was particularly important in the medium-quality classes. The reduction of grading into only three quality classes allowed to isolate statistically different subsets based on porosity coefficient and number of pores per 100 cm(2). These variables can be selected for further development into quality grades specification of wine cork stoppers.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;pub-location: 42 RUE MARSAN, 33300 BORDEAUX, FRANCE&lt;br/&gt;publisher: VIGNE ET VIN PUBLICATIONS INT</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Costa, A.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pereira, H.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Oliveira, A.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The effect of cork-stripping damage on diameter growth of Quercus suber L.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forestry</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cork Production</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">stripping</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">wound responses (PG)</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2004</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2004///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://forestry.oxfordjournals.org/content/77/1/1.abstract</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">77</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1 - 8</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The Mediterranean cork oak (Quercus suber L.) agro-forestry system is oriented towards cork production, with cork being extracted from tree stem and branches as planks by cutting with an axe and stripping off. The effect of damage to the tree during cork stripping was studied in cork oaks, weakened by wounding, by following the diameter growth and its seasonality during a 9-year production cycle, and comparing them with healthy cork oaks. Tree wounding decreased diameter growth during the following cycle, e.g. 8.5 mm a−1 and 9.8 mm a−1 for weakened and healthy trees, respectively, mostly in the 2 years immediately following the cork stripping. The beginning of annual growth in spring and the occurrence of the highest increments in June–August were delayed by about 1 month in the weakened trees. The cork produced by weakened trees was reduced by 13 per cent in thickness, with average cork ring widths of 3.3 mm a−1 vs. 3.8 mm a−1 for healthy trees.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/forestry/77.1.110.1093/forestry/77.1.1</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Costa, A.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pereira, H.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Oliveira, A.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A dendroclimatological approach to diameter growth in adult cork-oak trees under production</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Trees</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">climatic fluctuations</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">dendroclimatology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">diameter growth</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean climate</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus suber L.</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2001</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2001///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.springerlink.com/index/10.1007/s004680100119</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">15</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">438 - 443</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The diameter growth of mature cork oaks under cork production in southwestern Portugal was studied during a 9-year cork-production cycle in relation to fluctuations in precipitation and temperature, and to drought indices combining the two variables.

Longevity of leaves was 14±15 months (1996, 1998) and 10 months (1997). Bud burst started in mid-February and leaf ¯ushing in April, extending until June. Neither a distinct two-period ¯ushing nor an autumn bud burst or leaf ¯ushing were observed. Radial growth started in mid-April and continued until the end of November, with the maximum growth in June and July. In trees with the removal of cork, leaf abscission occurred a little earlier and new branches had on average 23% fewer new leaves. The radial growth of the trees and its general seasonal pattern were not affected by cork removal in the year of removal or in the year after.

Cork thickness was on average 33.8 mm, with 75% of the samples in the commercial classes above 27 mm suitable for production of stoppers. Porosity measured by image analysis was 4.6% on average. Between toe and between stand variability of cork quality was large. The annual average cork growth for a production cycle with 8 complete growth years was 4.1 mm, being highest during the years following cork extraction and decreasing during the cycle. For this region, a production cycle of 9 years is adequate for raw-material industrial requirements.

The outgassing products, upon electron-induced fragmentation, are analysed by a quadrupole mass spectrometer. Sequence of spectra at increasing temperatures were obtained for each sample, which allowed identification of the main groups of fragmentation. From such sequences of spectra one may derive intensity—temperature curves for each peak. Analysis of these curves for samples subjected to different treatments proved useful to identify the peaks, to assign the component which originates the species and even to derive activation energies.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2–3</style></issue></record></records></xml>
