Using closely related Mediterranean oak species as outgroup, the chlorotypes showed a clear phylogeographical pattern of three groups corresponding to potential glacial refuges in Italy, North Africa and Iberia. The most ancestral and recent groups were observed in populations located in the eastern and western parts of the species range, respectively. Several unrelated chlorotypes of the ‘ilex’ cpDNA lineage were also identified in specific western areas.• Conclusions The results support a Middle-Eastern or a central Mediterranean origin for cork oak with subsequent westward colonization during the Tertiary Period, and suggest that the ‘ilex’ chlorotype variation does not reflect entirely cytoplasmic introgression by Q. ilex but originated partly in Q. suber.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/aob/mci237</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/aob/mci237</style></research-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%">Alias, S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bianchi, L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Calamini, G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gregori, E</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sioni, S</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shrub facilitation of Quercus ilex and Quercus pubescens regeneration in a wooded pasture in central Sardinia (Italy)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Overgrazing</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus pubescens</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shrub facilitation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tree regeneration</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Wood pasture management</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Submitted</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SISEF - Italian Society of Silviculture and Forest Ecology</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">University of Sassari, v.

The present work analyzes the effects of excessive grazing pressure on a wooded pasture in the municipality of Orgosolo (Nuoro province), emphasizing the effects on the natural regeneration of the oak species (Quercus ilex and Quercus pubescens). This study has revealed the positive effects of the interaction between shrubs and seedlings of tree species. Crataegus monogyna proved to be the most efficient shrub species in favouring the establishment and growth of saplings; Rubus ulmifolius is efficient in the establishing phase but somewhat less so in the following stages. The other shrub species (Prunus spinosa, Genista pichi-sermolliana, Stachys glutinosa) play a lesser facilitating role. Despite the fact that seedlings are found in more than half (56%) of the shrub patches, the average age of the seedlings (14�0.6 yrs) and their small average size (height 24�1.4cm) lead to think that the present grazing pressure is incompatible with any concrete chance of success for their natural regeneration.</style></abstract></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%">Neves, Dina</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Caetano, Paula</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Oliveira, Joana</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Maia, Cristiana</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Horta, Marília</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sousa, Nelson</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Salgado, Marco</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dionisio, Lidia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Magan, Naresh</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cravador, Alfredo</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Anti-Phytophthora cinnamomi activity of Phlomis purpurea plant and root extracts</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF PLANT PATHOLOGY</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biocontrol</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Disease reduction</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus suber</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">root rot</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zoospores</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SPRINGER</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">VAN GODEWIJCKSTRAAT 30, 3311 GZ DORDRECHT, NETHERLANDS</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">138</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">835-846</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phlomis purpurea (Lamiaceae), found in Quercus suber and Quercus ilex ssp. rotundifolia forest habitats in southern Portugal, is a non-host for the oomycete Phytophthora cinnamomi, the main biotic factor involved in cork oak and holm oak decline in the Iberian Peninsula. The effect of P. purpurea crude ethanol root extract was evaluated in vitro on P. cinnamomi mycelial growth, sporangial production, zoospore release and germination as well as on chlamydospore production and viability. The protection of cork oak against infection by the pathogen was also evaluated in planta. At 10 mg ml(-1), in vitro inhibition of the pathogen structures was 85-100 %. In addition, P. purpurea plants were shown to protect Q. suber and Q. ilex from P. cinnamomi infection and to reduce the inoculum potential in glasshouse trials, indicating the ability to reduce root infection by the pathogen. The results suggest that P. purpurea has the potential to reduce disease spread and that their root extracts could provide candidate substances for control of the important pathogen, P. cinnamomi.</style></abstract></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%">Andivia, Enrique</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">FERNÁNDEZ, MANUEL</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">VÁZQUEZ-PIQUÉ, JAVIER</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Assessing the effect of late-season fertilization on Holm oak plant quality: insights from morpho–nutritional characterizations and water relations parameters</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">New Forests</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Autumn fertilization</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nursery culture</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nutrient loading</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">osmotic adjustment</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vector analysis</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Springer Netherlands</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">45</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">149-163</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest restoration projects with Holm oak (Quercus ilex) have had limited success, mostly due to water stress after planting and poor plant quality. Recent studies indicated that large and nutrient rich plants perform better in Mediterranean areas, sug- gesting that late-season fertilization may improve plant quality and field performance. The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of late-season fertilization on the quality of Holm oak seedlings, as determined by morphological, nutritional, and water relations analyses. We grew Holm oak nursery seedlings under 5 different late-season fertilization regimes and then analyzed morphological characteristics, nutritional status, and water relations parameters of the fertilization groups at the end of the nursery period. We also analyzed the effect of fertilization on nutritional status by use of vector nomograms. Our results indicated that late-season NPK fertilization improved shoot and root growth, and the overall nutritional status of seedlings. The lack of late-season fertilization leads to nutrient deficiency in plants, whilst the application of imbalanced fertilization treatments may trigger nutrient luxury consumption and nutrient dilution, pointing out the importance of NPK proportions in the fertilizer. Moreover, late-season fertilization with nitrogen might improve the drought resistance of seedling by enhancing their osmotic adjustment.</style></abstract></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%">Barra-Jimenez, Azahara</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Blasco, Miquel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ruiz-Galea, Mar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Celestino, Cristina</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Alegre, Jesús</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Arrillaga, Isabel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Toribio, Mariano</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cloning mature holm oak trees by somatic embryogenesis</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">TREES-STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">adult trees</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Arabinogalactan protein</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Integuments</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ovules</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">vegetative propagation</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SPRINGER</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">233 SPRING ST, NEW YORK, NY 10013 USA</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">28</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">657-667</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Integuments from holm oak developing ovules were suitable initial explants to obtain embryogenic lines from which plants could be regenerated. The implementation of multivarietal forestry as part of breeding strategies is expected to provide more productive forest plantations. To achieve this, a reliable and effective method for mass production of clonal plants is needed. Somatic embryogenesis is considered the enabling technology for implementing multivarietal forestry. The holm oak (Quercus ilex L.) is a Mediterranean evergreen tree of economic interests because of the acorn production for animal feed and edible fungi mycorrhization. The aim of this work was to obtain clonal plants by inducing somatic embryogenesis in tissues of female flowers from mature trees. The influence of the developmental stage of the explant, the genotype and medium composition, and the effect of arabinogalactan proteins on the induction frequency, were assessed. Somatic embryogenesis induction (frequency ranging from 1.2 to 3.2 %) was restricted to ovules excised at an advanced stage of development, when they were at least 3-4 mm wide and the rest of the ovules within the ovary had aborted. Somatic embryos arose from the integuments of those fertilized ovules. Embryogenic response was obtained on media with and without plant growth regulators. All the genotypes that were cultured on medium containing ``as reported by Schenk and Hildebrandt (Can J Bot 50:199-204, 1972){''} SH macronutrients could be captured. Treatments including Larix arabinogalactan proteins did not improve induction, while those from Acacia inhibited the embryogenic response. Several embryogenic lines were multiplied by repetitive embryogenesis on medium lacking plant growth regulators. Mature somatic embryos of three genotypes were germinated at frequencies ranging from 41 to 58 %, and converted into plants at frequencies from 11 to 30 %, depending on the genotype.</style></abstract></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%">Rico, L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ogaya, R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Terradas, J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Penuelas, J</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Community structures of N-2-fixing bacteria associated with the phyllosphere of a Holm oak forest and their response to drought</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PLANT BIOLOGY</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bacterial TRF richness</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">diazotrophic community</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Drought</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">foliar phyllosphere</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">t-RFLP</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Trees</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">WILEY-BLACKWELL</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">111 RIVER ST, HOBOKEN 07030-5774, NJ USA</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">16</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">586-593</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biological nitrogen (N) fixation is a key pathway in terrestrial ecosystems and is therefore critical for understanding the responses of ecosystems to global environmental changes. The free-living diazotrophic community is distributed along the canopy-to-soil profile, but the ecological significance of epiphyllic N-2 fixers, despite their functional relevance, on plant foliar surfaces remains very poorly understood compared with the N-2-fixing community in forest litter and soils. We assessed the community structure of N-2 fixers and overall bacteria by genetic fingerprinting (t-RFLP) to explore the seasonal successional patterns of the microbial community in the natural phyllosphere of a Holm oak (Quercus ilex) forest submitted to 12-year field experiment of rain exclusion mimicking the conditions of drought projected for the coming decades. Leaves of Holm oak were analysed in different seasons over a period of 1.5years. The bacterial community of the phyllosphere did not correspond to the surrounding soil biome in the same area. These analyses provided field evidence for the presence of free-living diazotrophs associated with the tissues of leaves of Holm oak, the dominant tree species of many Mediterranean forests. The results also revealed that the community composition is affected seasonally and inter-annually by the environment, and that the composition shifts in response to climate change. Drought treatment increased the richness of the epiphyllic microbial community, especially during the summer. These changes were associated with higher C:N ratios of leaves observed in response to drought in semiarid areas. This epiphyllic microbiota that can potentially fix N-2 extends the capacity of plants to adapt to the environment.</style></abstract></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%">Caldeira, Maria C.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ibáñez, Inés</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nogueira, Carla</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bugalho, Miguel N.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lecomte, Xavier</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Moreira, Andreia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pereira, João S.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Direct and indirect effects of tree canopy facilitation in the recruitment of Mediterranean oaks</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Applied Ecology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">climate change</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">herb management</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">high temperatures</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">positive interactions</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus suber</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">tree recruitment</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/1365-2664.12189</style></url></web-urls></urls><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">n/a - n/a</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">* Tree recruitment in Mediterranean ecosystems is strongly limited at the seedling stage by drought. Increasing evidence shows the critical positive role of the canopy nurse effect on seedling survival which results from direct and indirect, positive and negative interactions between species. * Most studies, however, have only focused on the effects of tree canopy on water and light, ignoring other critical factors affecting seedling regeneration, such as canopy effects on high temperatures and the competing herb biomass. * Here, we evaluate how tree canopy cover and removal of herbs affect the survival and growth of seedlings of two dominant Mediterranean Quercus species during a 3-year study. We use an integrated model that combines several data sets to quantify and predict regeneration dynamics along environmental gradients of soil moisture, temperature and light. * Low soil moisture, increased soil temperature and herb biomass negatively affected seedling survival of both Quercus species. Seedling growth was positively associated with increasing soil moisture and light. * Although tree canopy cover directly facilitated seedling survival in both Quercus species, it also negatively affected herb biomass and thus indirectly facilitated the survival of Quercus suber, but not of Quercus ilex seedlings at low levels of soil moisture. * Overall, tree canopies increased seedling survival but not growth during the establishment phase, mainly by ameliorating the effects of low soil moisture and high temperatures. Tree canopy indirectly facilitated survival of Q. suber seedlings by negatively affecting the competing herb layer. * Synthesis and applications. To improve tree recruitment and conserve Mediterranean Quercus woodlands, the removal of herbs should be integrated into management plans for dry habitats. Interactions between abiotic and biotic factors may also effect the regeneration of these tree species. In particular, a healthy tree canopy will become important for providing conditions to facilitate seedling establishment if these habitats become drier and warmer, as predicted by some climate change scenarios.</style></abstract></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%">Uscola, Mercedes</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Villar-Salvador, Pedro</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Oliet, Juan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Warren, Charles R</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foliar absorption and root translocation of nitrogen from different chemical forms in seedlings of two Mediterranean trees</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Environmental and Experimental Botany</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ammonium-nitrate</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cuticular conductance</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Glycine</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pinus halepensis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Urea</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">104</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">34-43</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Along with root uptake, plants can also absorb N through leaves. There are few comparative studies on the foliar absorption of N from different chemical forms of N in forest tree species. We compared the foliar N absorption capacity in seedlings of two forest trees widespread in the Mediterranean basin, Quercus ilex and Pinus halepensis. Plants were sprayed with the following individual N forms at 40mM N: 15N-nitrate (NO3−), 15N-ammonium (NH4+), 15N-urea or 13C and 15N dual-labeled glycine. Cuticular conductance was used as a surrogate of cuticle permeability to water. Q. ilex had higher N foliar absorption than P. hapelensis. Neither cuticular conductance nor shoot surface area explained N differences in absorption rate between species, which were instead likely linked to differences in stomatal density and presence of trichomes. In both species, foliar N absorption rate and N recovery differed among N forms: urea&gt;NH4+≥glycine≥NO3−. Differences in N absorption rate among N forms were correlated with their physico-chemical properties. The strong positive relationship between 15N and 13C uptake together with detection in shoots of intact dual-labeled glycine (measured by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry), indicated that a significant fraction of glycine was absorbed intact by the seedlings. In both species, higher cuticular conductance was related to faster N absorption from all forms except NO3−. Cuticular conductance had a stronger effect on N absorption from urea and NH4+ than N absorption from glycine, and the effects were more intense in Q. ilex than in P. halepensis. This suggests that variations in cuticle permeability in both species are determined by different mechanisms and that each N form was differently affected. Absorbed N was rapidly translocated to roots, with a larger proportion of N from organic forms being translocated than N from inorganic forms. Foliar fertilization increased plant N content, especially in urea fertilized plants, but direct foliar absorption only explained up to 10% of N content increase. This study demonstrates that two important Mediterranean forest tree species can absorb through their leaves both, inorganic and organic N forms. This has important ecological and applied implications, because all chemical forms of N are present in natural N deposition. Also results show that foliar N fertilization can play an important role for seedling N nutrition, and that the effect will have different impacts depending on the species.</style></abstract></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%">Ogaya, Romà</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Llusia, Joan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barbeta, Adrià</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Asensio, Dolores</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Liu, Daijun</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Alessio, Giorgio Arturo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Penuelas, Josep</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foliar CO2 in a holm oak forest subjected to 15 years of climate change simulation</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Science</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">climate change</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Drought</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">mediterranean forest</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phillyrea latifolia</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">photosynthetic rates</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year></dates><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A long-term experimental drought to simulate future expected climatic conditions for Mediterranean forests, a 15% decrease in soil moisture for the following decades, was conducted in a holm oak forest since 1999. Net photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance and leaf water potential were measured from 1999 to 2013 in Quercus ilex and Phillyrea latifolia, two co-dominant species of this forest. These measurements were performed in four plots, two of them received the drought treatment and the two other plots were control plots. The three studied variables decreased with increases in VPD and decreases in soil moisture in both species, but the decrease of leaf water potential during summer drought was larger in P. latifolia, whereas Q. ilex reached higher net photosynthetic rates and stomatal conductance values during rainy periods than P. latifolia. The drought treatment decreased ca. 8% the net photosynthetic rates during the overall studied period in both Q. ilex and P. latifolia, whereas there were just non-significant trends toward a decrease in leaf water potential and stomatal conductance induced by drought treatment. Future drier climate may lead to a decrease in the carbon balance of Mediterranean species, and some shrub species well resistant to drought could gain competitive advantage relative to Q. ilex, currently the dominant species of this forest.</style></abstract></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%">Ruiz Gómez, F.

This disease contributes to holm oak decline, a particularly serious problem in the ‘dehesas’ ecosystem of the southwestern Iberian Peninsula. This work describes the host–pathogen interaction of Q. ilex and P. cinnamomi, using new infection indices at the tissue level. Fine roots of 6-month-old saplings inoculated with P. cinnamomi were examined by light microscopy and a random pool of images was analysed in order to calculate different indices based on the measured area of pathogen structures. In the early stages of invasion, P. cinnamomi colonizes the apoplast and penetrates cortical cells with somatic structures. On reaching the parenchymatous tissues of the central cylinder, the pathogen develops different reproductive and survival structures inside the cells and then expands through the vascular system of the root. Some host responses were identified, such as cell wall thickening, accumulation of phenolic compounds in the middle lamella of sclerenchyma tissues, and mucilage secretion blocking vascular cells. New insights into the behaviour of P. cinnamomi inside fine roots are described. Host responses fail due to rapid expansion of the pathogen and a change in its behaviour from biotrophic to necrotrophic.</style></abstract></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%">Rambal, S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lempereur, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Limousin, J M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Martin-StPaul, N K</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ourcival, J M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rodríguez-Calcerrada, J</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">How drought severity constrains GPP and its partitioning among carbon pools in a Quercus ilex coppice?</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biogeosciences Discuss.</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">carbon sink</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Drought</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">GPP</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">photosynthates</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Copernicus Publications</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8673-8711</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The partitioning of photosynthates toward biomass compartments has a crucial role in the carbon sink function of forests. Few studies have examined how carbon is allocated toward plant compartments in drought prone forests. We analyzed the fate of GPP in relation to yearly water deficit in an old evergreen Mediterranean Quercus ilex coppice severely affected by water limitations. Gross and net carbon fluxes between the ecosystem and the atmosphere were measured with an eddy-covariance flux tower running continuously since 2001. Discrete measurements of litterfall, stem growth and fAPAR allowed us to derive annual productions of leaves, wood, flowers and acorns and an isometric relationship between stem and belowground biomass has been used to estimate perennial belowground growth. By combining eddy-covariance fluxes with annual productions we managed to close a C budget and derive values of autotrophic and heterotrophic respirations, NPP and carbon use efficiency (CUE, the ratio between NPP and GPP). Average values of yearly NEP, GPP and Reco were 282, 1259 and 977 g C m−2. The corresponding ANPP components were 142.5, 26.4 and 69.6 g C m−2 for leaves, reproductive effort (flowers and fruits) and stems. Gross and net carbon exchange between the ecosystem and the atmosphere were affected by annual water deficit. Partitioning to the different plant compartments was also impacted by drought, with a hierarchy of responses going from the most affected, the stem growth, to the least affected, the leaf production. The average CUE was 0.40, which is well in the range for Mediterranean-type forest ecosystems. CUE tended to decrease more slightly in response to drought than GPP and NPP, probably due to drought-acclimation of autotrophic respiration. Overall, our results provide a baseline for modeling the inter-annual variations of carbon fluxes and allocation in this widespread Mediterranean ecosystem and highlight the value of maintaining continuous experimental measurements over the long term.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></research-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%">Martín-García, J.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Solla, A.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Corcobado, T.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Siasou, E.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Woodward, S.</style></author></authors><secondary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Belbahri, L.</style></author></secondary-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Influence of temperature on germination of Quercus ilex in Phytophthora cinnamomi , P. gonapodyides, P. quercina and P. psychrophila infested soils</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest Pathology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">infected soils</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phytophthora cinnamomi</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year></dates><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">n/a-n/a</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The influence of temperature on germination of Quercus ilex acorns in Phytophthora infested soils was quantified for the first time. Radicle damage and mortality of Q. ilex seeds germinating at 17, 20, 23 and 26°Cin Phytophthora cinnamomi, P. gonapodyides, P. quercina and P. psychrophila infested soils were assessed and related to in vitro mycelium growth of the same isolates of the pathogens. The optimum growth temperatures of isolates of P. cinnamomi, P. gonapodyides, P. quercina and P. psychrophila were 20–23, 23–26, 20–23 and 20°C, respectively. At 17 and 20°C, all four Phytophthora species caused 100% acorn mortality, whereas at 26°C, acorn mortality was 100, 10, 25 and 0% in P. cinnamomi, P. gonapodyides, P. quercina and P. psychrophila infested soils, respectively. At 23°C, P. cinnamomi and P. gonapo- dyides reduced acorn radicle length more than P. quercina and P. psychrophila, whereas at 26°C, only P. cinnamomi caused further reduction in radicle length. The higher susceptibility of germinating acorns in comparison to seedlings reported in the literature indicates age-related susceptibility of Q. ilex to Phytophthora. The seedling/pathogen growth ratio was inversely related to the reduction in radicle length at different temperatures (R2 adj = 0.84, p &lt; 0.0001), suggesting that rapid germination may allow seedlings to escape from infection. Increasing temperatures had different effects on damage to acorns depending on the pathogen present in the soil, indicating that Phytoph- thora species 9 temperature interactions determined Q. ilex germination. The effects of temperature on the impacts of Phytophthora spe- cies based on climate change predictions for Mediterranean countries are discussed.</style></abstract></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%">Uscola, Mercedes</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Oliet, JuanA.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Villar-Salvador, Pedro</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Díaz-Pinés, Eugenio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jacobs, DouglassF.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nitrogen form and concentration interact to affect the performance of two ecologically distinct Mediterranean forest trees</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">European Journal of Forest Research</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ammonium</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ecophysiology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Growth</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">nitrate</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pinus halepensis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Springer Berlin Heidelberg</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">133</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">235-246</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Most studies examining inorganic N form effects on growth and nutrition of forest trees have been conducted on single species from boreal or temperate environments, while comparative studies with species from other biomes are scarce. We evaluated the response of two Mediterranean trees of contrasting ecology, Quercus ilex L. and Pinus halepensis Mill., to cultivation with distinct inorganic N forms. Seedlings were fertilized with different NH4 (+)/NO3 (-) proportion at either 1 or 10 mM N. In both species, N forms had small effects at low N concentration, but at high N concentration they markedly affected the plant performance. A greater proportion of NH4 (+) in the fertilizer at high N caused toxicity as it reduced growth and caused seedling death, with the effect being greater in Q. ilex than in P. halepensis. An increase in the proportion of NO3 (-) at high N strongly enhanced growth relative to low N plants in P. halepensis but had minor effects in Q. ilex. Relatively more NH4 (+) in the fertilizer enhanced plant P concentration but reduced K concentration in both species, while the opposite effect occurred with NO3 (-), and these effects were enhanced under high N concentration. We conclude that species responses to inorganic N forms were related to their ecology. P. halepensis, a pioneer tree, had improved performance with NO3 (-) at high N concentration and showed strong plasticity to changes in N supply. Q. ilex, a late successional tree, had low responsiveness to N form or concentration.</style></abstract></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%">Parras-Alcántara, Luis</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Díaz-Jaimes, Luisa</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lozano-García, Beatriz</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fernández Rebollo, Pilar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Moreno Elcure, Félix</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Carbonero Muñoz, María D</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Organic farming has little effect on carbon stock in a Mediterranean dehesa (southern Spain)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">CATENA</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Conventional tillage</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Management practices</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Organic farming</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Soil organic carbon</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">113</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9-17</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Understanding soil dynamics is essential for making appropriate land management decisions, as soils can affect the carbon content from the atmosphere, emitting large quantities of CO2 or storing carbon. This property is essential for climate change mitigation strategies as agriculture and forestry soil management can affect the car- bon cycle. The Mediterranean dehesa (Mediterranean grassland ecosystem with scattered oak trees — grazing systemwith Quercus ilex spp. ballota) is a silvopastoral systemthat integrates forestry, agricultural and livestock practices. The dehesa is characterized by the preservation of forest oaks that provide environmental services includingcarbon capture and storage.Thispaper showsthe relationships betweensoilproperties andsoil organic carbon (SOC) in two soil types: Cambisols (CM) and Leptosols (LP), with two management systems: organic farming (OF) for 20 years and conventional tillage (CT) in a Mediterranean dehesa of southern Spain without cropping. An analysis of 85 soil profiles was performed in 2009 in Los Pedroches Valley (Cordoba, southern Spain). TheSOCstock (SOC-S)was greater inCM(75.64 Mg ha−1)thaninLP(44.01 Mg ha−1). Physical parameters were themain variables affecting soil development. SOC-S was very similar in OF and CT (CM [74.90 Mg ha−1-CT; 76.39 Mg ha−1-OF] and LP [44.77 Mg ha−1-CT; 43.25 Mg ha−1-OF]). Data analysis showed that management practices had little effect on SOC storage in the study zone. Significant differences between soil types and manage- ment practiceswere found in SOC content for different horizons. The stratification ratiowas N2in bothsoils types (CM and LP) and management systems (OF and CT). These results indicate that the soil is of high quality, and that management practices have little influence on SOC-S in Los Pedroches Valley.</style></abstract></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%">Fernandez-Puratich, Harald</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vicente Oliver-Villanueva, Jose</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quantification of biomass and energetic value of young natural regenerated stands of Quercus ilex under Mediterranean conditions</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">BOSQUE</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">biomass</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">energetic value</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">quantification</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">35</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">65 - 74</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest biomass is key to Spain's energy policy. National, regional and local strategies, development programs of management plans and biomass and quantification of the most important species are fundamental. The objective of this research was to quantify and to analyze the calorific value of biomass of holm oak (Quercus ilex subsp. ballota) under Mediterranean conditions. To do this, several natural regenerated plots were selected in the Valencian Community (Eastern Spain). The main obtained results show that the average volume and weight per tree are 0.045 m(3) tree(-1) and 0.033 Mg tree(-1) respectively. In addition, the form factor was determined (0.66). With an average stand density of 3,200 trees ha(-1), the total potential biomass is 105.4 Mg ha(-1). With the results obtained, a function of stem biomass related to the variables DBH (diameter at breast height) and Vf (volume of stem) has been adjusted with significantly high determination level and low estimation errors. This function can be used for the prediction of biomass quantification in natural regenerated holm oak pure stands in the Mediterranean area. Laboratory results show an energetic value of 17.0 MJ kg(-1) biomass. Therefore, the total potential energy is 513 MJ tree(-1) and 1.8 GJ ha(-1). Considering the large forest areas and the potential resources derived from clearings, thinning and fire prevention silvicultural treatments, the holm oak has the aptitude to be considered a valid raw material for energy use (mainly thermal) in Mediterranean rural areas.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;pub-location: CASILLA 567, VALDIVIA, 00000, CHILE&lt;br/&gt;publisher: UNIV AUSTRAL CHILE, FAC CIENCIAS FORESTALES</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%">Pulido, Fernando</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Moreno, Gerardo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Garcia, Eustolia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Obrador, Jose J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bonal, Raul</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Díaz, Mario</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Resource manipulation reveals flexible allocation rules to growth and reproduction in a Mediterranean evergreen oak</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JOURNAL OF PLANT ECOLOGY</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">acorn abortion</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">allocational plasticity</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dehesa</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">growth-reproduction trade-offs</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">nutrient addition</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">resource allocation</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">OXFORD UNIV PRESS</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">GREAT CLARENDON ST, OXFORD OX2 6DP, ENGLAND</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">77-85</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Aims In plants, resource allocation to growth and reproduction may depart from trade-off expectations if (i) investment in growth and reproduction relies on different resource pools, (ii) allocation to reproduction is dependent upon reaching some growth threshold or (iii) reproduction is developmentally linked to growth, both functions relying on the same resource pool. We examined the effects of enhanced resource level on patterns of resource allocation to growth and reproduction in holm oak (Quercus ilex sbsp. ballota), a Mediterranean evergreen tree. Methods In the experimental year (2003), we manipulated the amount of soil nutrients in autumn (to increase nutrient uptake during shoot elongation in the following spring) and soil water in summer (to increase water uptake during acorn growth). Indicators of growth and male and female reproduction were estimated in the pre-experimental (2002), experimental (2003) and post-experimental (2004) years. Important Findings Fertilized trees produced significantly longer shoots, but the number of female flowers per shoot was not affected by treatments. The production of male catkins was also enhanced by fertilization. Irrigation did not affect the production of female flowers or abortion rates. Growth and female reproduction showed no consistent relationship in untreated trees, but resource addition elicited a growth-female reproduction trade-off in the experimental year. The sign of this significant relationship changed in the post-experimental year, indicating the existence of lagged effects of resource manipulation on acorn production.

In each period, five water doses were established: 0, 25, 50, 75, and 100 % of the reference evapotranspiration (ETo). Five orchards were planted with Quercus ilex inoculated with T. melanosporum, and in each orchard, we arranged a two-factorial design with irrigation period and irrigation dose as main factors to test their combined effects on the development of both T. melanosporum and Q. ilex after 3 years in the field. Irrigation period significantly interacted with irrigation doses for the absolute presence per seedling of T. melanosporum mycorrhizae. Irrigation in May-July increased significantly T. melanosporum colonization in seedlings irrigated with 50 % ETo dose compared to the 0 % ETo dose. A similar pattern with smaller differences in means was observed in August-October period, but the irrigation doses did not change T. melanosporum colonization when we watered from May to October. We found ectomycorrhizae different from T. melanosporum in 51 % of the seedlings studied, but their presence was marginal. Our results suggest that a moderate irrigation dose promotes seedling growth and number of fine root tips per unit of fine root length, which may be potentially colonized by T. melanosporum.</style></abstract></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%">Pacheco-Labrador, Javier</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">González-Cascón, Rosario</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Martín, M Pilar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Riaño, David</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Understanding the optical responses of leaf nitrogen in Mediterranean Holm oak (Quercus ilex) using field spectroscopy</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">International Journal of Applied Earth Observation and Geoinformation</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Field spectroscopy</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaf nitrogen</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Spectral index</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">26</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">105-118</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The direct estimation of nitrogen (N) in fresh vegetation is challenging due to its weak influence on leaf reflectance and the overlaps with absorption features of other compounds. Different empirical models relate in this work leaf nitrogen concentration ([N]Leaf) on Holm oak to leaf reflectance as well as derived spectral indices such as normalized difference indices (NDIs), the three bands indices (TBIs) and indices previously used to predict leaf N and chlorophyll. The models were calibrated and assessed their accuracy, robustness and the strength of relationship when other biochemicals were considered. Red edge was the spectral region most strongly correlated with [N]Leaf, whereas most of the published spectral indexes did not provide accurate estimations. NDIs and TBIs based models could achieve robust and acceptable accuracies (TBI1310,1720,730: R2 = 0.76, [0.64,0.86]; RMSE (%) = 9.36, [7.04,12.83]). These models sometimes included indices with bands close to absorption features of N bonds or nitrogenous compounds, but also of other biochemicals. Models were independently and inter-annually validated using the bootstrap method, which allowed discarding those models non-robust across different years. Partial correlation analysis revealed that spectral estimators did not strongly respond to [N]Leaf but to other leaf variables such as chlorophyll and water, even if bands close to absorption features of N bonds or compounds were present in the models.</style></abstract></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%">Olivera, Antoni</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Antonio Bonet, Jose</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Palacio, Lorena</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Liu, Bing</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Colinas, Carlos</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Weed control modifies Tuber melanosporum mycelial expansion in young oak plantations</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ANNALS OF FOREST SCIENCE</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mulch</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Soil mycelium</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tubermelanosporum</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Weed control</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SPRINGER FRANCE</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">22 RUE DE PALESTRO, PARIS, 75002, FRANCE</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">71</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">495-504</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Black truffle (Tuber melanosporum) cultivation is a promising agro-forestry alternative for Mediterranean rural areas, but adequate weed control at seedling establishment still remains a challenge in black truffle plantations. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of several weed control strategies on early development of Quercus ilex seedlings and the symbiotic T. melanosporum. In a young black truffle-inoculated holm oak plantation, we assessed for 3 years the effects of two types of mechanical weed control and five mulches in a young Q. ilex plantation inoculated with T. melanosporum. Herbaceous cover, seedling growth and abundance of T. melanosporum mycelium, based on PCR analysis of soil DNA extracts using T. melanosporum-specific primers, were estimated to determine the effectiveness of these treatments in controlling weeds and supporting the growth of both the host tree and the target fungus. The amount of T. melanosporum mycelium in the soil 30 cm around the seedlings was larger under double-layer white mulch than in the rest of treatments tested. Under the white colour mulches, which had the largest light reflection, we registered the cooler soil temperature, and the best weed control was observed on the single- and double-layer black truffles and double-layer white mulch. The effects of double-layer white mulch on herbaceous cover, soil temperature, reflected light, and the expansion of T. melanosporum bring us closer to being able to substitute traditional tilling of truffle orchards for the less expensive mulching treatments.</style></abstract></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%">Calò, Camilla</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Henne, Paul D.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Eugster, Patricia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">van Leeuwen, Jacqueline</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gilli, Adrian</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hamann, Yvonne</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">La Mantia, Tommaso</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pasta, Salvatore</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vescovi, Elisa</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tinner, Willy</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1200 years of decadal-scale variability of Mediterranean vegetation and climate at Pantelleria Island, Italy</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">HOLOCENE</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">'&quot;Little Ice Age' (LIA)</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">'Medieval Warm Period' (MWP)</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">central Mediterranean</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fire history</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pinus pinaster</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus pubescens</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">vegetation history</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">23</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1477 - 1486</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A new sedimentary sequence from Lago di Venere on Pantelleria Island, located in the Strait of Sicily between Tunisia and Sicily was recovered. The lake is located in the coastal infra-Mediterranean vegetation belt at 2 m a.s.l. Pollen, charcoal and sedimentological analyses are used to explore linkages among vegetation, fire and climate at a decadal scale over the past 1200 years. A dry period from ad 800 to 1000 that corresponds to the Medieval Warm Period' (WMP) is inferred from sedimentological analysis. The high content of carbonate recorded in this period suggests a dry phase, when the ratio of evaporation/precipitation was high. During this period the island was dominated by thermophilous and drought-tolerant taxa, such as Quercus ilex, Olea, Pistacia and Juniperus. A marked shift in the sediment properties is recorded at ad 1000, when carbonate content became very low suggesting wetter conditions until ad 1850-1900. Broadly, this period coincides with the Little Ice Age' (LIA), which was characterized by wetter and colder conditions in Europe. During this time rather mesic conifers (i.e. Pinus pinaster), shrubs and herbs (e.g. Erica arborea and Selaginella denticulata) expanded, whereas more drought-adapted species (e.g. Q. ilex) declined. Charcoal data suggest enhanced fire activity during the LIA probably as a consequence of anthropogenic burning and/or more flammable fuel (e.g. resinous Pinus biomass). The last century was characterized by a shift to high carbonate content, indicating a change towards drier conditions, and re-expansion of Q. ilex and Olea. The post-LIA warming is in agreement with historical documents and meteorological time series. Vegetation dynamics were co-determined by agricultural activities on the island. Anthropogenic indicators (e.g. Cerealia-type, Sporormiella) reveal the importance of crops and grazing on the island. Our pollen data suggest that extensive logging caused the local extinction of deciduous Quercus pubescens around ad1750.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;pub-location: 1 OLIVERS YARD, 55 CITY ROAD, LONDON EC1Y 1SP, ENGLAND&lt;br/&gt;publisher: SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD</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%">Boulmane, Mohamed</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Santa-Regina, Ignacio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Khia, Abderrahim</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Abbassi, Hassan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Halim, Mohamed</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Aboveground Biomass and Nutrient Pools in Two Evergreen Oak Stands of the Middle Moroccan Atlas Area</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Arid Land Research and Management</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">aboveground biomass</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">allometric method</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">forest ecosystem</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">litter decomposition</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">nutrient storage</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/15324982.2012.723114</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">27</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">188 - 202</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The aboveground tree biomass and nutrient pools, litterfall, and weight loss of litter due to decomposition have been measured in two permanent plots of evergreen oak forest (Quercus ilex L.) of the Middle Moroccan Atlas area (Tafachna and Reggada). The aboveground biomass was estimated by cutting and weighing twenty trees Y (biomass)¼aX (X¼(D2H)b, D and H are respectively the diameter at 1.30m and tree height. The aboveground biomass of the two studied stands was: 96.0 and 86.4 t ha1, respectively, for Tafachna and Reggada of which the woody part accounts for approximately 96%. The average productions of litter are, respectively, 3030 and 3560 kg ha1 yr1 for Tafachna and Reggada. The leaves account for approximately 70% of the total litterfall, restored to the soil 38.3 kg ha1 yr1 for Tafachana and 44.6 kg ha1 an1 for Reggada (approximately 74% of the total nutrient amount of the litterfall). The decomposition pattern of the leaves litter from each site according to diameter classes. In order to establish biomass regression equations the best fit was obtained by applying the allometric method: follows a negative exponential equation of form RF¼A þB exp (kt). The nitrogen was the bioelement that contributed the greatest amount to the bio- geochemical cycling between vegetation and soil. At the level of internal exchange to the trees, translocation, and transfer, the nitrogen was followed by phosphorus and potassium.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue></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%">Carmona, Carlos P.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Azcárate, Francisco M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Oteros-Rozas, Elisa</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">González, José A.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Peco, Begoña</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Assessing the effects of seasonal grazing on holm oak regeneration: Implications for the conservation of Mediterranean dehesas</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biological Conservation</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Agricultural intensification</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Agroforestry</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Browsing</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Transhumance</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0006320712004831</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">159</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">240 - 247</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Scattered trees in agricultural landscapes are globally declining due to the intensification of agricultural practices. Dehesas, highly species-diverse Mediterranean open woodlands, are seriously affected by this decline, because of a generalized regeneration failure of oak, which compromise their long-term stability. Traditionally, dehesas were the wintering areas for transhumant herds, but transhumance is disappearing in the Mediterranean, due to multiple causes. Reductions in grazing intensity or grazing abandonment have been proposed to improve oak regeneration in dehesas, but the effect of the recovery of non-continuous grazing practices such as transhumance has not been tested to date. We measured different indicators of holm oak regeneration and condition in dehesas under transhumant grazing and in dehesas under permanent grazing in southern Spain. Oak juveniles were remarkably less browsed and their canopies covered a much higher area in transhumant estates. As a consequence, the median density of saplings was more than four times higher in transhumant than in permanently-grazed estates. Although transhumant grazing is necessarily associated with a reduction in the stocking rate across the year, the timing of grazing was always included as a predictor in the best models to explain the condition and density of holm oak. Our results suggest that the lack of oak regeneration in dehesas can be caused not only by the increases in stocking rates, but also by the recent abandonment of traditional grazing practices like transhumance. We propose the recovery of seasonal grazing regimes based on transhumant pastoralism as a measure to improve the conservation status of dehesas.</style></abstract></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%">Ruiz-Peinado, R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Moreno, G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Juarez, E</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Montero, G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Roig, S</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The contribution of two common shrub species to aboveground and belowground carbon stock in Iberian dehesas</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Arid Environments</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Agro-silvo-pastoral system</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">biomass</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">carbon balance</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cistus ladanifer</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">retama sphaerocarpa</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Root:shoot ratio</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Elsevier Ltd</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">91</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">22-30</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shrubs play an important role in water-limited agro-silvo-pastoral systems by providing shelter and forage for livestock, for erosion control, to maintain biodiversity, diversifying the landscape, and above all, facilitating the regeneration of trees.

The contribution of two common extensive native shrub species (Cistus ladanifer L. and Retama sphaerocarpa (L.)

Little is known, however, about the long-term consequences of generally drier conditions and more frequent extreme droughts. A Holm oak forest was exposed to experimental rainfall manipulation for 13years to study the effect of increasing drought on growth and mortality of the dominant species Quercus ilex, Phillyrea latifolia, and Arbutus unedo. The drought treatment reduced stem growth of A. unedo (-66.5%) and Q. ilex (-17.5%), whereas P. latifolia remained unaffected. Higher stem mortality rates were noticeable in Q. ilex (+42.3%), but not in the other two species. Stem growth was a function of the drought index of early spring in the three species. Stem mortality rates depended on the drought index of winter and spring for Q. ilex and in spring and summer for P. latifolia, but showed no relation to climate in A. unedo. Following a long and intense drought (2005-2006), stem growth of Q. ilex and P. latifolia increased, whereas it decreased in A. unedo. Q. ilex also enhanced its survival after this period. Furthermore, the effect of drought treatment on stem growth in Q. ilex and A. unedo was attenuated as the study progressed. These results highlight the different vulnerabilities of Mediterranean species to more frequent and intense droughts, which may lead to partial species substitution and changes in forest structure and thus in carbon uptake. The response to drought, however, changed over time. Decreased intra- and interspecific competition after extreme events with high mortality, together with probable morphological and physiological acclimation to drought during the study period, may, at least in the short term, buffer forests against drier conditions. The long-term effects of drought consequently deserve more attention, because the ecosystemic responses are unlikely to be stable over time.Nontechnical summaryIn this study, we evaluate the effect of long-term (13years) experimental drought on growth and mortality rates of three forest Mediterranean species, and their response to the different intensities and durations of natural drought. We provide evidence for species-specific responses to drought, what may eventually lead to a partial community shift favoring the more drought-resistant species. However, we also report a dampening of the treatment effect on the two drought-sensitive species, which may indicate a potential adaptation to drier conditions at the ecosystem or population level. These results are thus relevant to account for the stabilizing processes that would alter the initial response of ecosystem to drought through changes in plant physiology, morphology, and demography compensation.</style></abstract></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%">Barba, Josep</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Yuste, Jorge Curiel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Martínez-Vilalta, Jordi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lloret, Francisco</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Drought-induced tree species replacement is reflected in the spatial variability of soil respiration in a mixed Mediterranean forest</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest Ecology and Management</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest dieback</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean ecosystem</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pinus sylvestris</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Soil CO2 efflux</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Spatial variability</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0378112713003939</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">306</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">79 - 87</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">As episodes of drought-induced forest mortality are being increasingly reported worldwide and may become more frequent in the future as a result of climate change, it is essential to characterize their functional implications in terms of ecosystem carbon and water fluxes. We investigated the spatial variability of soil respiration in a mixed Mediterranean forest located on rugged terrain, where Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) is affected by drought-induced dieback and appears to have been replaced by Holm oak (Quercus ilex) as the dominant tree species. Soil respiration was measured in spring 2010 on two plots (16.2 × 16.2 m) using a static closed chamber method (soda lime technique) and a systematic sampling (1.8-m grid) including 100 points per plot. Biotic and abiotic variables, such as soil moisture, soil temperature, soil organic matter content, stoniness, pH, fine root C:N ratio and biomass, tree basal area and tree species and health condition of nearest neighbouring tree were also recorded. Our results showed that the spatial variability of soil respiration under optimal environmental conditions (spring) was high and showed no spatial autocorrelation on the scale studied (1–18 m). A mixed-effects model applied to explain the spatial variability of soil respiration indicated that only the variables related to forest structure (i.e., health condition and basal area) explained any of the observed variability of soil respiration (R2 = 0.45). Our model revealed that soil respiration was highest in soils close to dead pines and under Holm oak trees, suggesting that tree mortality and species replacement of pine trees by Holm oak may lead to higher soil respiration fluxes. The direct effect of tree mortality on soil respiration may be a transitory response caused by fine root mortality. Furthermore, the fact that tree species replacement as a result of drought-induced die-off is accompanied by concomitant changes in soil respiration has important implications for soil and ecosystem carbon balance</style></abstract></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%">Petroselli, Andrea</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vessella, Federico</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cavagnuolo, Lucia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Piovesan, Gianluca</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Schirone, Bartolomeo</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ecological behavior of Quercus suber and Quercus ilex inferred by topographic wetness index (TWI)</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%">Ecological gradients</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest ecology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus suber</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Terrain analysis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Topographic wetness index</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Springer Berlin Heidelberg</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">27</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1201-1215</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The ecological behaviors of a network of pure evergreen oak stands (Quercus suber L. and Quercus ilex L.) in the Central-Western Mediterranean Basin were investigated toward climatic and edaphic factors implemented with the application of topographic wetness index (TWI). A Categorical Principal Component Analysis (Catpca) using climatic and soil physico-chemical parameters was performed on 23 cork oak and holm oak pure stands with the aim to understand better the effectiveness of TWI for characterizing soil ecology of the two species. Catpca pointed out that, although cork oak and holm oak are able to growth in similar Mediterranean conditions, they show different behaviors in terms of needs and tolerance to soil water content. TWI confirmed such results at local scale, allowing highlighting some interesting features of the species differential ecology. Although both species confirmed to be drought-tolerant, the heliophilous cork oak revealed to dominate the landscape on wettest soils with high TWI values-indicating the capacity to tolerate stresses due to periods of waterlogging-, while the shade-tolerant holm oak prevails for low-medium TWI values-drier and mesophilous sites. Despite the application of TWI to vegetation science and ecology is relatively recent, results are encouraging and suggest considering this user-friendly and synthetic index in ecological investigations and modeling.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Carbonero Muñoz, M.

Los resultados indican que el año siguiente a la poda la producción tiende a disminuir y el tamaño y peso de la bellota a aumentar, aunque este aumento sólo es significativo cuando la poda se realiza en un año de altas producciones. El porcentaje en que la producción y morfología de la bellota varía tras la poda también difiere en función de las características del año, siendo mayor cuando se aplica en contextos productivos buenos.

In addition, increased temperatures and summer drought lead to increased risk of forest fires as a result of climate change. This may have important consequences for C dynamics and balance in these ecosystems. Soil respiration was measured over 2 successive years in Holm oak (Quercus ilex subsp. ballota; Qi); Pyrenean Oak (Quercus pyrenaica Willd; Qp); and Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.; Ps) forest stands located in the area surrounding Madrid (Spain), to assess the long term effects of wildfires on C efflux from the soil, soil properties, and the role of soil temperature and soil moisture in the variation of soil respiration. Soil respiration, soil temperature, soil moisture, fine root mass, microbial biomass, biological and chemical soil parameters were compared between non burned (NB) and burned sites (B). The annual C losses through soil respiration from NB sites in Qi, Qp and Ps were 790, 1010, 1380 gCm(-2) yr(-1), respectively, with the B sites emitting 43 %, 22 % and 11 % less in Qi, Qp and Ps respectively. Soil microclimate changed with higher soil temperature and lower soil moisture in B sites after fire. Exchangeable cations and the pH also decreased. The total SOC stocks were not significantly altered, but 6-8 years after wildfires, there was still measurably lower fine root and microbial biomass, while SOC quality changed, indicated by lower the C/N ratio and the labile carbon and a relative increase in refractory SOC forms, which resulted in lower Q(10) values. We found long term effects of wildfires on the physical, chemical and biological soil characteristics, which in turn affected soil respiration. The response of soil respiration to temperature was controlled by moisture and changed with ecosystem type, season, and between B and NB sites. Lower post-burn Q(10) integrated the loss of roots and microbial biomass, change in SOC quality and a decrease in soil moisture.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">GARCÍA MORENO, A.

El estrés hídrico provocado por la escasez de precipitaciones y altas temperaturas, es el principal factor que limita el establecimiento de plántulas y afecta al crecimiento y a la producción de árboles adultos. Diversos trabajos han puesto de manifiesto una fuerte relación entre el estado hídrico de las hojas y su huella espectral. En este trabajo hemos tratado de evaluar el contenido hídrico (CH) y el contenido hídrico relativo (CHR) de la encina a partir de espectros de hoja fresca obtenidos mediante espectrofotómetros portátiles. Para ello (i) hemos calculado modelos de predicción para el CH a partir de lecturas espectrales de 160 muestras de hoja fresca de encina con dos equipos NIRS portátiles, y (ii) hemos analizado la relación entre el estado hídrico de 20 muestras de hoja de encina en distintos estadíos, y los índices espectrales NDWI, WI y MDWI. Las ecuaciones de calibración obtenidas con ambos espectofotómetros tienen una buena capacidad de predicción del estado hídrico de la hoja de encina intacta. Existe una correlación significativa entre los índices espectrales calculados y el estado hídrico.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;periodical: VI Congreso Forestal Español&lt;br/&gt;pub-location: Vitoria</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%">Delzon, Sylvain</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Urli, Morgane</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Samalens, Jean-Charles</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lamy, Jean-Baptiste</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lischke, Heike</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sin, Fabrice</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zimmermann, Niklaus E.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Porte, Annabel J.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Field Evidence of Colonisation by Holm Oak, at the Northern Margin of Its Distribution Range, during the Anthropocene Period</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PLOS ONE</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">mediterranean species</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">niche modelling</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8</style></volume><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A major unknown in the context of current climate change is the extent to which populations of slowly migrating species, such as trees, will track shifting climates. Niche modelling generally predicts substantial northward shifts of suitable habitats. There is therefore an urgent need for field-based forest observations to corroborate these extensive model simulations. We used forest inventory data providing presence/absence information from just over a century (1880-2010) for a Mediterranean species (Quercus ilex) in forests located at the northern edge of its distribution. The main goals of the study were (i) to investigate whether this species has actually spread into new areas during the Anthropocene period and (ii) to provide a direct estimation of tree migration rate. We show that Q. ilex has colonised substantial new areas over the last century. However, the maximum rate of colonisation by this species (22 to 57 m/year) was much slower than predicted by the models and necessary to follow changes in habitat suitability since 1880. Our results suggest that the rates of tree dispersion and establishment may also be too low to track shifts in bioclimatic envelopes in the future. The inclusion of contemporary, rather than historical, migration rates into models should improve our understanding of the response of species to climate change.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APSAPSThe following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;pub-location: 1160 BATTERY STREET, STE 100, SAN FRANCISCO, CA 94111 USA&lt;br/&gt;publisher: PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE</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%">Caliskan, Servet</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Germination and seedling growth of holm oak (Quercus ilex L.): effects of provenance, temperature, and radicle pruning</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">IFOREST-BIOGEOSCIENCES AND FORESTRY</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">artificial regeneration</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holm oak</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Radicle Pruning</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">seed germination</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">sowing</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">103 - 109</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">This study tested acorn characteristics and the germination behavior of different provenances of Holm oak (Quercus ilex L.) and the effects of radicle clipping of germinated acorns on 1-0 year-old seedling morphology and their field performances.

Stem growth of two Mediterranean oaks was predicted using nonlinear multiplicative models as a function of precipitation and minimum temperature of the hydrological year fitted to dendrochronological data. The growth of both species increased nonlinearly with accumulated precipitation before reaching an asymptote, but the species with a warmer niche (Q. ilex, an evergreen species) required lower levels of precipitation to achieve high relative growth. The species-specific relationship between growth and minimum temperature exhibited an optimum for the two species. Trees were negatively affected by high minimum temperatures whereas they responded negatively (Q. ilex) or neutrally (Q. pyrenaica, a deciduous species) to low temperatures along the climatic gradient analyzed. Growth would decrease rapidly when minimum temperatures rose above approximately 7 °C for Q. pyrenaica and 9 °C for Q. ilex. Most growth projections suggest a likely future decrease in productivity along the species range for Q. pyrenaica and particularly at species-specific warm, dry locations pointed to a future drastic reduction in productivity as a result of the increase in temperatures without a paired increase in precipitation forecasted by the different climate scenarios considered. In agreement with results from studies modeling future distribution of species this suggests that Q. pyrenaica could be threatened by climate change at the species local dry edge where, in addition, stands often present a lack of seed regeneration. More drought tolerant Q. ilex might profit from warming temperatures at cold northern locations but would also reduce productivity at warm, dry locations. Stem growth was successfully modeled using biologically meaningful species-specific responses to climate which provided key ecological information to understand the functional response of the two species. The models used have much potential to be applied with dendroecological data to study the response of forests to climate change.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Elsevier B.V.</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">BARRA JIMÉNEZ, A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">RUIZ GALEA, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">CELESTINO MUR, C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">TORIBIO IGLESIAS, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ARRILLAGA MATEOS, I</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ALEGRE ÁLVARO, J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PEÑUELAS RUBIRA, J L</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hacia las plantaciones de quercíneas en alta densidad: Clonación de encinas adultas mediante embriogénesis somática</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">VI Congreso Forestal Español</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">bellotas</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biotecnología</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">micropropagación</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">plantaciones forestales</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">propagación vegetativa</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vitoria</style></pub-location><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1 - 9</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">La bellota es un producto de la dehesa esencial para la actividad ganadera y en especial para el desarrollo del cerdo ibérico.

Analyses confirmed Pb, Cd, Cu and Zn as a main contaminants in Siena's urban environment; only Pb concentrations decreased significantly compared to earlier surveys. Additionally, we determined chemical composition of tree leaves, litter and topsoil (underneath/outside tree crown) in urban and extra-urban oak stands. Most notably, litter in urban samples collected outside the canopy had significantly lower concentrations of organic matter and higher concentrations of Pb, Cu, Cd and Zn than litter collected underneath the canopy. There was a greater metals' accumulation in topsoil, in samples collected under the tree canopy and especially near the trunk ('stemflow area'). Thus, in urban ecosystems the Holm Oak stands likely increase the soil capability to bind metals. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd.

Levels of environmental contaminants were generally higher in leaves and moss from urban areas than periurban and extraurban ones and samples from Campania had the highest PAH content. The epiphytic moss accumulated higher concentrations of trace elements than leaves and the latter showed a higher accumulation capability for PAHs, especially for those with low molecular weight. The different bioaccumulation in leaves and moss were explained in terms of their distinctive morphological and ecophysiological characteristics.

The production of haploids and DH through gametic embryogenesis provides an attractive biotechnological tool for developing homozygous lines from heterozygous parents, which is important in breeding programs, as well as in genetic studies. As a consequence, protocols to produce homozygous plants have a significant impact on forest tree improvement. Anthers were subjected to different temperature treatments for embryo induction: a cold pre-treatment (4 C) from 3 to 7 days was carried out at the beginning, followed by a heat shock (33 C) from 2 to 5 days. Most anthers responding to these stress treatments contained vacuolated microspores, indicating that this developmental stage is responsive to embryogenesis induction in holm-oak microspores. In all cases, embryos grew from the interior of the anthers, breaking through the degenerating anther walls. Under these conditions, embryo formation occurred in 31 anthers between 46 and 95 days after culture initiation. Embryo analysis performed with flow-cytometry and DNA-microsatellite markers showed haploid profiles and/or spontaneous doubling of the chromosomes during early regeneration stages. This is, to our knowledge, the first published report on gametic embryogenesis in holm oak.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Carbonero Muñoz, M.

Para cada año de poda se eligieron 10 pies estimándose la producción de bellota durante seis años, de 2001 a 2006. El efecto a largo plazo de la poda sobre la producción de bellota se evaluó mediante un modelo mixto de medidas repetidas considerando como factores los años transcurridos desde la ejecución de la poda, el año de muestreo y la interacción de ambos. Los resultados indican que a largo plazo la poda no afecta a la cuantía de la producción de bellota aunque sí al patrón de producción disminuyendo la intensidad de la vecería en los primeros años. También la poda afecta a la morfología de la bellota y a su patrón de evolución aunque su efecto es efímero extendiéndose a los primeros años tras su realización.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;periodical: VI Congreso Forestal Español</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%">Reyes-Acosta, J Leonardo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lubczynski, Maciek W</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mapping dry-season tree transpiration of an oak woodland at the catchment scale, using object-attributes derived from satellite imagery and sap flow measurements</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Agricultural and Forest Meteorology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">HFD</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus pyrenaica</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sap-flow scaling-up</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Semi-arid open-forest</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Transpiration</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">174–175</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">184-201</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Abstract Tree transpiration is an important plant-physiological process that influences the water cycle, thereby influencing ecosystems and even the quantity of available water resources. However, direct tree-transpiration measurements, particularly at large spatial scales, are still rare, due to the complexities associated with natural ecosystems. In this study we describe a scaling-up method for quantifying dry-season tree transpiration (Tc) of the Sardón catchment, located in Central-Western Spain, 50 km west of Salamanca. The method is applied to an oak woodland in that catchment which is dominated by two tree species: evergreen Quercus ilex and deciduous Quercus pyrenaica (Q.i. and Q.p., respectively). The method comprises five complementary steps: (a) sap-flux density (Jp) measurement; (b) definition of biometric-upscaling functions; (c) spatial scaling-up of tree transpiration using high-resolution remote-sensing-derived object attributes (50–60 cm per pixel); (d) modelling of dry-season temporal sap-flow variability; and (e) an assessment of the robustness/uncertainty of the method. The proposed method was applied to assess dry-season tree transpiration, however if there is appropriate sap flow data available, it can also be applied during any season of the year. The application of the proposed method to map tree transpiration in the Sardón catchment resulted in a mean Jp = 58.4 cm3 cm−2 day−1 for Q.p., characterized by tree density of 19 trees ha−1, and a mean Jp = 37.1 cm3 cm−2 day−1 for Q.i., characterized by tree density of 4 trees ha−1. The Jp data varied as dependent on the weather conditions and not on the change of soil moisture. The mean normalised tree transpiration (Tt) estimated per species, was also higher for Q.p. (1.19 mm day−1 ±8%) than for Q.i. (0.83 mm day−1 ±25%) trees. The remote-sensing scaling up of tree transpiration for the Sardón catchment resulted in a low mean dry-season Tc = 0.045 mm day−1 (±1%) typical for water limited environments with sparse tree coverage (average ≈7%). In that Tc, Q.p. represented 79%, whereas Q.i. 21%. The dry-season Tc varied spatially at 1 ha resolution but barely temporally throughout the dry season. The obtained Tc maps can be readily used as input for distributed models in water resources and land management decision-making.</style></abstract></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%">Valero-Galvàn, José</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">González-Fernández, Raquel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Navarro-Cerrillo, Rafael Maria</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gil-Pelegrín, Eustaquio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jorrín-Novo, Jesús V</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Physiological and Proteomic Analyses of Drought Stress Response in Holm Oak Provenances</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Proteome Research</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Analysis of Variance</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">biomass</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chlorophyll ﬂuorescence</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">drought stress in Holm oak</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Droughts</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Electrophoresis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gel</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gene Expression Regulation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holm oak proteomics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Physiological</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Physiological: genetics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Physiological: physiology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Leaves</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Leaves: genetics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Leaves: metabolism</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Proteins</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Proteins: metabolism</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant: genetics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant: physiology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proteomics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proteomics: methods</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus: genetics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus: metabolism</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus: physiology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Seedling</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Seedling: growth &amp;

Several physiological parameters, including predawn xylem water potentials and relative water content in soil, roots, and leaves as well as maximum quantum efficiency and yield of PSII were evaluated for 28 days in both irrigated and nonirrigated seedlings. The leaf proteome map of the two provenances that show the extreme responses (Seville, GSE, is the most susceptible, while Almer??a, SSA, is the least susceptible) was obtained. Statistically significant variable spots among provenances and treatments were subjected to MALDI-TOF/TOF-MS/MS analysis for protein identification. In response to drought stress, ?12.4% of the reproducible spots varied significantly depending on the treatment and the population. These variable proteins were mainly chloroplastic and belonged to the metabolism and defense/stress functional categories. The 2-DE protein profile of nonirrigated seedlings was similar in both provenances. Physiological and proteomics data were generally in good agreement. The general trend was a decrease in protein abundance upon water withholding in both provenances, mainly in those involved in ATP synthesis and photosynthesis. This decrease, moreover, was most marked in the most susceptible population compared with the less susceptible one.</style></abstract><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">24088139</style></accession-num><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">From Duplicate 2 (Physiological and Proteomic Analyses of Drought Stress Response in Holm Oak Provenances - Valero-Galván, José; González-Fernández, Raquel; Navarro-Cerrillo, Rafael Maria; Gil-Pelegrín, Eustaquio; Jorrín-Novo, Jesús V)</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">From Duplicate 2 (Physiological and Proteomic Analyses of Drought Stress Response in Holm Oak Provenances - Valero-Galván, José; González-Fernández, Raquel; Navarro-Cerrillo, Rafael Maria; Gil-Pelegrín, Eustaquio; Jorrín-Novo, Jesús V)</style></research-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%">Sghaier-Hammami, Besma</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Valero-Galvàn, José</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Romero-rodríguez, Mª Cristina</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Navarro-Cerrillo, Rafael Mª Ma</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Abdelly, Chedly</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jorrín-novo, Jesús</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Physiological and proteomics analyses of Holm oak (Quercus ilex subsp. ballota [Desf.] Samp.) responses to Phytophthora cinnamomi</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Physiology and Biochemistry</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gene Expression Regulation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holm oak decline</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holm oak proteomics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phytophthora</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phytophthora cinnamomi</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phytophthora: physiology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Proteins</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Proteins: genetics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Proteins: metabolism</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant: genetics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant: physiology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proteomics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proteomics: methods</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus: microbiology</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Elsevier Masson SAS</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">71</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">--</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phytophthora cinnamomi is one of the agents that trigger the decline syndrome in Quercus spp., this being a serious threat to Mediterranean Holm oak forest sustainability and reforestation programs.

Habitat improvement has been proposed as a tool to recover the production in close forests, but evaluations based on scientific monitoring are still lacking. This study analyses the short-term effect of a pilot project on improvement of T. melanosporum reproduction habitat. The results support the project hypothesis that the canopy closure was hampering truffle fruiting in the larger brines. The silvicultural treatment alone has not triggered a clear positive response in all the truffieres, suggesting that complementary actions are necessary to ensure their sustainability. Weather conditions provoke a year-to-year variation in the fruiting and determine the responsiveness of the truffieres to the treatment. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V.

To date, however, the application of this technology to mature trees is restricted to a few species. This is the first report on the induction of SE from male catkins of 100-year-old holm oaks (Quercus ilex L.). Embryogenic competence was mainly dependent on genotype and restricted to the most advanced catkin developmental stage with distinguishable closed flowers along the axis. Fol- lowing a three-stage treatment procedure, embryogenic response (frequencies up 3.3 %) was obtained in three [Remedio, Villar del Arzobispo (VA) and Hunde (HU)] out of the five genotypes evaluated. In the culture conditions tested, the preferred protocol to induce SE in holm oak catkins should include: induction on MS medium with 6-benzyladenine and naphthaleneacetic acid, subculture onto medium with a reduced concentration of both plant growth regulators and a final transference to medium without growth regulators. Under these conditions cotyledonary-stage cotyledonary-stage somatic embryos developed from brown calli with or without nodular structures. Secondary SE, favored by the addition of sorbitol to the manifestation medium, allowed the establishment of 14 embryogenic lines belonging to VA and HU genotypes. Histological observations of the proliferating cultures revealed the presence of globular, torpedo and cotyledonary somatic embryos. Somatic embryos were diploid as verified by flow cytometry analysis, suggesting that they originated from the perianthic tissue of the male flower</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue></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%">Perez Izquierdo, L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pulido, F</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Spatiotemporal variation in acorn production and damage in a Spanish holm oak (Quercus ilex) dehesa</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest Systems; Vol 22, No 1 (2013)</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">acorn production</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Brenneria</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Curculio</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cydia</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dehesa</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">spatio-temporal variation</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013</style></year></dates><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Aim of study. There is a lack of knowledge about spatio-temporal patterns of acorn production in dehesas, especially regarding the influence of different agents causing acorn damage. We examined the spatial and temporal variability on acorn production and damage in four stands within a dehesa farm in 1997, 1998 and 1999. Area of study. The study was carried out in a 1800 ha dehesa farm of Cáceres province, western Spain. Material and Methods. Acorns were sampled by means of seed traps placed in the canopy of six holm oak trees per stand. Acorn collected in it were counted and assessed for damage by Curculio weevils, Cydia moths and the bacterial pathogen Brenneria quercina . Main results. Mean acorn production for the whole study period was 44.60 acorns m -2 , which did not vary significantly either among stands or among years. The variability among individual trees was very high (0-300 acorns m -2 ). The rate of infestation by Curculio was 7.64 ± 10.72 %, by Cydia was 1.76 ± 3.33 %, whereas 10.29 ± 16.12 % of acorns were infested by Brenneria . We found no significant spatial differences, but the rates of acorn loss by insects varied among years. These rates were independent of annual acorn production and there was no correlation among damages by different pests, except between Curculio and Cydia in two crop years. Research highlights. It can be concluded that acorn crops are synchronized at the within-farm level and that the temporal variation in acorn damages can be independent of crop size.

We analyzed this effect together with other significant factors identified in this type of rangeland: topography and plowing. Data were collected in the 1984 growing season and they form part of a historical database on the characteristics of vegetation and livestock behavior; these data refer to grasslands below and away from the tree crowns of 91 individual trees, located in different topographical positions and in areas that were last plowed at different times.We used multivariate analyses to identify the main compositional trends of variation in pasture communities. The results indicate that the herbaceous community below tree crowns was more similar to that of the lowland areas than to the nearby areas away from the tree. This result supports the idea of tree cover in semiarid rangelands as a factor attenuating the effects on pastures of environmental conditions typical of high and intermediate topographical positions—generally presenting low soil moisture and fertility. Coupled with this, we also found effects of some individual trees related with the way livestock uses them as shelter and resting places. Our results indicate that the role played by dispersed trees in the management of this type of rangeland should be analyzed at two complementary spatial scales: the overall effect of tree cover as a factor acting at landscape scale and the specific effect of some individual trees acting at a more detailed scale.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue></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%">Garcia-Barreda, Sergi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Reyna, Santiago</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Below-ground ectomycorrhizal community in natural Tuber melanosporum truffle grounds and dynamics after canopy opening.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mycorrhiza</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Brûlé</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ectomycorrhiza</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">silviculture</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tuber melanosporum</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Wild truffière</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21932021</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">22</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">361 - 369</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The ectomycorrhizal fungus Tuber melanosporum fruits in association with Quercus in natural forests of Spain. Some of these stands are managed to keep an open canopy and meet the habitat requirements of the fungus. However, there are few quantitative studies analysing in these forests the relationship between soil environment and T. melanosporum. Eight forest stands which produce T. melanosporum have been monitored for 6 years in order to characterise the below-ground ectomycorrhizal community and to assess its temporal dynamics after experimental canopy opening. The brûlé, the ground where T. melanosporum fruits, shows a distinct ectomycorrhizal community, characterised by lower density of active ectomycorrhizal tips, lower morphotype richness per soil volume, higher abundance of T. melanosporum and lower abundance of Cenococcum geophilum than soil closest to the trunk of the host Quercus ilex. Opening the canopy has not stimulated an increase in T. melanosporum, suggesting that a shift in the soil environment alone will not trigger the formation of new truffières in the short term. The dry climate of these truffières may be a factor as T. melanosporum abundance appears to be sensitive to annual weather conditions.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;accession-num: 21932021</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%">Avila, Anna</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rodà, Ferran</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Changes in atmospheric deposition and streamwater chemistry over 25 years in undisturbed catchments in a Mediterranean mountain environment.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The Science of the total environment</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Alkalinity</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Base cations</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">nitrogen</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Streamwater chemistry</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sulphate</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22200374</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">434</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">18 - 27</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Surface water chemistry has changed in response to reduced atmospheric deposition of sulphur and acidity in many regions of Europe and North America. Most of these studies come from acidic or low-alkalinity surface waters under high acidic deposition. Mediterranean climates offer a different biogeochemical context, characterised by streamwaters of higher alkalinity and low acid inputs. In this paper, we use surveys of streamwater chemistry conducted in 1981-1984 and again in 2007 in the Montseny natural park (NE Spain) to test whether streamwaters of these well-buffered catchments respond to changes in atmospheric deposition, which has declined for S during the last decades in NE Spain while remaining about stable for nitrogen. The 23 sampled streams drained heathland, beech forests and evergreen oak forests in relatively undisturbed small catchments underlain by silicate bedrock. Bulk deposition of sulphate at Montseny decreased by 54% while nitrate bulk deposition increased (non-significantly) by 30% in this period. Total N deposition is estimated in the range 15-30 kg N ha(-1) y(-1) for NE Spain. This is well above threshold values (e.g. 10 kg N ha(-1) y(-1)) reported as starting nitrogen saturation symptoms in forest ecosystems in Europe. Baseflow sulphate concentrations decreased on average by 47 μeq L(-1) or 29% of early 1980s concentrations. Baseflow mean nitrate concentrations increased significantly but only from 5.5 to 8.9 μeq L(-1). Thus, despite decades of high N deposition, these ecosystems appear to be still far from N saturation. Baseflow alkalinity and base cation concentrations increased substantially, probably a combined result of decreased S deposition, enhanced silicate weathering under current higher temperatures, reduced plant cation uptake as vegetation matures, and slightly drier conditions in the survey of 2007. Overall, these well-buffered catchments have shown sizable changes in baseflow chemistry in response to changed atmospheric deposition and other environmental changes.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Elsevier B.V.&lt;br/&gt;accession-num: 22200374</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%">Cheaib, Alissar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Badeau, Vincent</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Boe, Julien</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chuine, Isabelle</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Delire, Christine</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dufrêne, Eric</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">François, Christophe</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">GRITTI, EMMANUEL S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Legay, Myriam</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pagé, Christian</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Thuiller, Wilfried</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Viovy, Nicolas</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Leadley, Paul</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Climate change impacts on tree ranges: model intercomparison facilitates understanding and quantification of uncertainty</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ecology Letters</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">climate change</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fagus sylvatica</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">France</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pinus sylvestris</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus petraea</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus robur</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">species range</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">vegetation model intercomparison</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Blackwell Publishing Ltd</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">15</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">533-544</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ecology Letters (2012) Abstract Model-based projections of shifts in tree species range due to climate change are becoming an important decision support tool for forest management. However, poorly evaluated sources of uncertainty require more scrutiny before relying heavily on models for decision-making. We evaluated uncertainty arising from differences in model formulations of tree response to climate change based on a rigorous intercomparison of projections of tree distributions in France. We compared eight models ranging from niche-based to process-based models. On average, models project large range contractions of temperate tree species in lowlands due to climate change. There was substantial disagreement between models for temperate broadleaf deciduous tree species, but differences in the capacity of models to account for rising CO2 impacts explained much of the disagreement. There was good quantitative agreement among models concerning the range contractions for Scots pine. For the dominant Mediterranean tree species, Holm oak, all models foresee substantial range expansion.</style></abstract></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%">Barbeta, Adrià</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ogaya, Romà</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Penuelas, Josep</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Comparative study of diurnal and nocturnal sap flow of Quercus ilex and Phillyrea latifolia in a Mediterranean holm oak forest in Prades (Catalonia, NE Spain)</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%">á</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Drought</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ilex á sap flow</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">nocturnal sap flow</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">nocturnal sap flow á</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phillyrea latifolia</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phillyrea latifolia á quercus</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">sap flow</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.springerlink.com/index/10.1007/s00468-012-0741-4http://link.springer.com/10.1007/s00468-012-0741-4</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">26</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1651 - 1659</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Droughts are a cyclical disturbance in Mediterranean ecosystems and climate change models forecast an increase of their frequency and severity. Some experimental and observational studies have shown that cooccurring species may cope with drier conditions with different strategies and present different responses. Here, we investigate sap ﬂow response to drought in order to explain the observed differential growth and mortality of Quercus ilex and Phillyrea latifolia at Prades Holm oak forest (NE Spain). We measured sap ﬂow of these species and compared their diurnal, nocturnal and seasonal patterns and their relationship with environmental variables. Both species described qualitatively similar daily patterns, either during daylight or night. Sap ﬂow rates were signiﬁcantly higher in P. latifolia except in autumn and spring. P. latifolia was more sensitive to soil moisture. Nocturnal sap ﬂow was detected in both species with no signiﬁcant differences and hourly rates suffered a progressive increase from 3 a.m. to dawn in most sampled nights. Our results indicate a better adaptation of P. latifolia to this site as it can take better advantage of wet periods while maintaining higher sap ﬂow rates during dry periods. Along with previous ecophysiological studies at the same location it may be inferred that at its drier distributional limit Q. ilex would be at disadvantage with respect to other species like P. latifolia, as the latter would cope better with increasing xeric conditions already occurring and further predicted for Mediterranean ecosystems. Our results also show nocturnal sap ﬂow to be relevant in individual water losses in these two species as they can be up to 35–40 % of daily sap ﬂow. Further research on the underlying mechanisms of this nocturnal sap ﬂow is required since it may also enhance early morning CO2 ﬁxation or nutrient supply to leaves.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue></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%">Rolo, Víctor</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plieninger, Tobias</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Moreno, Gerardo</style></author></authors><secondary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zobel, Martin</style></author></secondary-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Facilitation of holm oak recruitment through two contrasted shrubs species in Mediterranean grazed woodlands</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Vegetation Science</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cistus ladanifer</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dehesa</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">nurse plant</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">retama sphaerocarpa</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shrub encroachment</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year></dates><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">n/a--n/a</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Question: Regeneration failure and gradual tree dieback are major threats for the persistence of savanna-like grazed oak woodlands. Current research has argued that the scarcity of ‘safe sites’, in particular shrubs, is the main cause of the lack of effective tree recruitment. But can different shrub species be considered as safe sites generally? Do two distinct shrub species, with contrasted life strategies, affect several life stages of tree regeneration in similar ways or do they speciﬁcally inﬂuence the recruitment process?

Methods: We surveyed densities of recently emerged and surviving seedlings as well as small and large saplings over two consecutive years in 40 sites that were independently managed, comparing plots encroached by either Cistus ladanifer (a shallow-rooted shrub, forming dense populations, with reported allelopathic compounds) or Retama sphaerocarpa (a N2-ﬁxing, deep-rooted shrub that forms scattered populations) vs their respective control plots (without shrubs). To assess the effect of mature trees and both shrub species on the performance and survival of recently emerged oak seedlings, we established an acorn sowing experiment in the same surveyed microhabitats (open spaces, shrub, tree and tree–shrub). Results: The survey showed that both shrubs species had a positive effect at early recruitment stages. At later life stages, this effect weakened under Cistus whereas it strengthened under Retama. The acorn sowing experiment showed that both shrub species buffered abiotic conditions and enhanced seedling functioning similarly, but Retama enhanced seedling survival to a higher extent than Cistus. Conclusions: The two shrub species impose a speciﬁc template that is able to affect the long-term dynamics of Mediterranean oak woodlands. Cistus shrubs are effective in protecting seedlings physically against herbivores and facilitate early survival, but may compete with older stages of oak regeneration. In contrast, Retama shrubs exert stronger biological facilitation and guarantee longterm persistence of surviving seedlings. We argue that improved understanding of the effectiveness of different nurse plants and their contrasting factors is of major interest for the conservation and restoration of degraded oak woodlands</style></abstract></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%">Coll, Lluís</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Camarero, Araid</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Aragón, Juan Martínez De</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Camarero, Jesús Julio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Martínez de Aragón, Juan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Camarero, Araid</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Aragón, Juan Martínez De</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fine Root Seasonal Dynamics, Plasticity, and Mycorrhization in 2 Coexisting Mediterranean Oaks with Contrasting Aboveground Phenology</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ecoscience</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">architecture et le statut</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chênes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">coexistence d</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">des mécanismes supportant la</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ectomycorrhizae</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">espèces méditerranéennes de</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">et caduques</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">feuilles persistantes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">fine roots</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">l</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">mixte de chênes à</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">mycorhizien des radicelles d</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">nous avons analysé sur</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">nous avons utilisé la</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phenology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">pour accroître notre compréhension</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus faginea</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">résumé</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">root traits</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">technique du sac</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">un peuplement</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">une année la production</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.bioone.org/doi/abs/10.2980/19-3-3488</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">19</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">238 - 245</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">To advance understanding of the mechanisms underpinning the coexistence of Mediterranean oak species, we conducted a year-long analysis of the production, architecture, and mycorrhization status of the fine roots of a mixed evergreen (Quercus ilex) and winter deciduous (Quercus faginea) oak stand. We used the ingrowth bag technique to sample the fine roots produced by each species in spring, summer, and winter. For each season, root architecture traits (specific root length, root diameter, root tips) and variables associated to root ectomycorrhizal status were measured in the laboratory. Results showed a marked seasonality in the fine root architecture, including more fine root tips and longer roots per unit of weight formed in spring and summer, revealing a capacity in Mediterranean oak species to modify root architecture in spring and suggesting the possibility of increased resource capture in summer. Fine root ectomycorrhizal status was comparable between species and also showed marked seasonality: we found a high percentage of roots colonized by dead ectomycorrhizas in winter but low ectomycorrhizal colonization rates in summer. Quercus ilex produced greater amounts of fine roots than Q. faginea (particularly during spring), suggesting greater competitive ability in the former species for belowground resources.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue></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%">Monnier, Yogan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Prévosto, Bernard</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ripert, Christian</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Corbani, Aude C.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fernandez, Catherine</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest microhabitats differentially influence seedling phenology of two co-existing Mediterranean oak species</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Vegetation Science</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Canopy</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">litter</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phenology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus pubescens</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Soil moisture</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Survival</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1654-1103.2011.01358.x</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">23</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">260 - 270</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Question How do forest microhabitats impact seasonal microclimate conditions and phenological seedling strategies in two co-occurring Mediterranean Quercus species with different leaf habits? Location Pinus halepensis woodlands, Provence, SE France. Methods Ninety sets of three acorns of Quercus ilex (evergreen) or Quercus pubescens (winter-deciduous) were sown under various P. halepensis canopy cover conditions. Canopy cover and litter depth were measured at each sowing point, and soil moisture and temperature were measured twice monthly. Seedling phenology and aerial development were monitored during the second growing season under different microhabitats. Results During rainy periods, soil moisture was higher under open canopy and thinner litter layers, whereas during summer drought soil moisture was higher under dense canopy and thicker litter layers. Quercus pubescens seedlings had higher growth activity than Q. ilex before summer drought, whereas the pattern reversed during autumnal growth. Dense canopy cover strongly delayed budburst and decreased foliar development in Q. pubescens, which was more affected than Q. ilex. Depending on species phenology, litter thickness can influence height growth of flushes during early summer. Conclusions Quercus pubescens has a phenological strategy to allow development of maximal foliar area before summer drought, a typical growth strategy of Mediterranean winter-deciduous species. In contrast, later phenological activity of evergreen Q. ilex enables it to cope with the dry period and capitalize on autumnal precipitation events. Dense cover acts as shelter in the dry season but can reduce soil moisture during wetter seasons. In contrast to Q. ilex, Q. pubescens appeared strongly dependent on canopy cover, suggesting that Q. ilex has a larger regeneration niche in Aleppo pine woodlands. In the context of global change, this ‘microhabitat effect’ on species-specific phenological strategy underlines the need to consider effects of local environmental conditions on regenerating species.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue></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%">Aguilera, M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ferrio, J.

However, information on seasonal precipitation patterns through the Holocene is scarce. This study attempts to quantify the evolution of seasonal precipitation in the East Iberian Peninsula (5000 BC to AD 600) based on the carbon isotope composition (δ13C) of archaeobotanical remains. Data on Holm oak, Aleppo pine and small-grain cereals were combined, and precipitation was inferred from models relating present-day records to the δ13C of modern samples. Subsequently, charred grains were used as a proxy for ancient moisture during April–May, whereas oak and pine charcoals provided complementary rainfall estimates for September–December and January–August, respectively. The results reveal aridity changes throughout the Holocene in the western Mediterranean. Past spring–summer precipitation was consistently higher than at present. In contrast, autumn and early winter precipitation showed stronger fluctuations, particularly during the first millennium BC, and often exhibited values below those of the present. The high contribution of autumn precipitation to the annual water budget, typical of the present Mediterranean climate, was definitively established at the beginning of the current era. This study shows how a combination of species holding complementary environmental signals can contribute to a wider knowledge of local precipitation dynamics.

The data suggest that after 10 000 cal a BP increasing moisture availability supported closed forests with deciduous (Quercus cerris, Fagus sylvatica and Fraxinus spp.) and evergreen (Quercus ilex) species. Species-rich closed forest persisted until 6850 cal a BP, when Neolithic activities caused a forest decline and affected plant diversity. Secondary forest with abundant Ilex aquifolium recovered between 6650 and 6000 cal a BP, indicating moist conditions. From 5000 cal a BP, agriculture and pastoralism led to the currently fragmented landscape with sparse deciduous forests (Quercus cerris). The study suggests that evergreen broadleaved species were more important at elevations above 1000 m a.s.l. before ca. 5000 cal a BP than subsequently, which might reflect less human impact or warmer-than-today climatic conditions between 10 000 and 5000 cal a BP. Despite land use since Neolithic times, deciduous supra-mediterranean forests were never completely displaced from the Nebrodi Mountains, because of favourable moist conditions that persisted throughout the Holocene. Reconstructed vegetation dynamics document the absence of any pronounced mid- or late-Holocene ‘aridification’ trend at the site, an issue which is controversially debated in Italy and the Mediterranean region.

Consequently, ecological studies relying on modern observations or historical records may have difﬁculty assessing natural vegetation dynamics under current and future climate. We combined a sedimentary pollen record from Lago di Massacciucoli, Tuscany, Italy with simulations from the LANDCLIM dynamic vegetation model to determine what vegetation preceded intense human disturbance, how past changes in vegetation relate to ﬁre and browsing, and the potential of an extinct vegetation type under present climate. We simulated vegetation dynamics near Lago di Massaciucoli for the last 7,000 years using a local chironomid-inferred temperature reconstruction with combinations of three ﬁre regimes (small infrequent, large infrequent, small frequent) and three browsing intensities (no browsing, light browsing, and moderate browsing), and compared model output to pollen data. Simulations with low disturbance support polleninferred evidence for a mixed forest dominated by Quercus ilex (a Mediterranean species) and Abies alba (a montane species). Whereas pollen data record the collapse of A. alba after 6000 cal yr BP, simulated populations expanded with declining summer temperatures during the late Holocene. Simulations with increased ﬁre and browsing are consistent with evidence for expansion by deciduous species after A. alba collapsed. According to our combined paleoenvironmental and modeling evidence, mixed Q. ilex and A. alba forests remain possible with current climate and limited disturbance, and provide a viable management objective for ecosystems near the Mediterranean coast and in regions that are expected to experience a mediterranean-type climate in the future.</style></abstract></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%">Ceacero, Carlos J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Díaz-Hernández, José Luis</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">del Campo, Antonio D</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Navarro-cerrillo, Rafael M</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Interactions between soil gravel content and neighboring vegetation control management in oak seedling establishment success in Mediterranean environments</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest Ecology and Management</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rock fragment</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Soil water content</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vegetation establishment</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Elsevier B.V.</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">271</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10-18</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Restoration of vegetation in Mediterranean areas is limited by several factors, some of which are poorly understood, such as soil stoniness and competition with natural vegetation. This paper analyzes the interaction between weed management treatments (cultivation, herbicide, mulch and tree shelter) and the proﬁle stoniness in Holm oak (Quercus ilex L. sub. ballota (Desf.) Samp.) seedling establishment in Mediterranean areas. Our experimental trials show that proﬁle gravel content is a key factor in seedling survival, in which optimal reforestation sites would be deﬁned by gravel content &lt;5%; transitional sites by 5% 6 gravel content 6 15% and excluded sites by gravel content &gt;15%. The soil proﬁle gravel content caused severe water limitations, especially important in the ﬁrst year after planting, which inﬂuenced the effectiveness of neighboring vegetation control techniques for seedling establishment success. This study also conﬁrms the positive effect of competition management techniques on survival. The treatments tested showed an improvement in the survival rate, but not in growth rate, over the control treatment throughout the monitoring period.

The aim of this study was to analyze the root system plasticity of three layers of vegetation growing together (trees, shrubs and pasture) and identify potential mechanisms of competition avoidance. Root morphology and distribution of trees, pasture and two contrasting shrub species (deep and shallow rooted) were studied in open oak woodlands of south-western Spain. Soil samples were obtained from paired adjacent plots, with and without shrubs, by taking soil cores to a depth of 3 m. Analysis of tree and pasture root systems in the presence of shrubs revealed signiﬁcant reductions in root biomass and consistent increases in speciﬁc root length. Additionally, root proﬁles changed substantially, becoming signiﬁcantly deeper for trees and shallower for pasture. In contrast, both types of shrub increased their root biomass when growing in competition, but without signiﬁcantly modifying their rooting proﬁle. Shrubs seem to be stronger competitors for below-ground resources than neighboring species. However, trees and pasture show clear plastic responses to shrub presence, irrespective of their rooting patterns, probably to minimize competitive interactions and maximize resource acquisition.</style></abstract></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%">Granda, Elena</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Escudero, Adrián</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">de la Cruz, Marcelino</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Valladares, Fernando</style></author></authors><secondary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pillar, Valerio</style></author></secondary-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Juvenile–adult tree associations in a continental Mediterranean ecosystem: no evidence for sustained and general facilitation at increased aridity</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Vegetation Science</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">faginea</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Juniperus thurifera</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">patterns</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pinus nigra</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus faginea</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Regeneration</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">spatial</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">spatial patterns</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stress-gradient hypothesis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">water</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Water availability</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://doi.wiley.com/10.1111/j.1654-1103.2011.01343.xhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1654-1103.2011.01343.x</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">23</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">164 - 175</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Question How do tree species identity, microhabitat and water availability affect inter- and intra-specific interactions between juvenile and adult woody plants? Location Continental Mediterranean forests in Alto Tajo Natural Park, Guadalajara, Spain. Methods A total of 2066 juveniles and adults of four co-occurring tree species were mapped in 17 plots. The frequency of juveniles at different microhabitats and water availability levels was analysed using log-linear models. We used nearest-neighbour contingency table analysis of spatial segregation and J-functions to describe the spatial patterns. Results We found a complex spatial pattern that varied according to species identity and microhabitat. Recruitment was more frequent in gaps for Quercus ilex, while the other three species recruited preferentially under shrubs or trees depending on the water availability level. Juveniles were not spatially associated to conspecific adults, experiencing segregation from them in many cases. Spatial associations, both positive and negative, were more common at higher water availability levels. Conclusions Our results do not agree with expectations from the stress-gradient hypothesis, suggesting that positive interactions do not increase in importance with increasing aridity in the study ecosystem. Regeneration patterns are species-specific and depend on microhabitat characteristics and dispersal strategies. In general, juveniles do not look for conspecific adult protection. This work contributes to the understanding of species co-existence, proving the importance of considering a multispecies approach at several plots to overcome limitations of simple pair-wise comparisons in a limited number of sites.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue></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%">Andivia, Enrique</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">VÁZQUEZ-PIQUÉ, JAVIER</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">FERNÁNDEZ, MANUEL</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Alejano, Reyes</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Litter production in Holm oak trees subjected to different pruning intensities in Mediterranean dehesas</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Agroforestry systems</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">á agroforestry systems</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">á litterfall á</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">agroforestry systems</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">climate change</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">climate change á management</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">litterfall</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">management</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">pruning</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">quercus ilex á pruning</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://link.springer.com/10.1007/s10457-012-9586-5</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">87</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">657 - 666</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Litterfall is a key process in forests which is sensitive to climatic conditions like precipitation and temperature, and management practices. Therefore, knowledge about litterfall patterns and its associated variables is important for the conservation of Mediterranean ecosystems under conditions of climate change. We aimed to quantify the temporal pattern of litterfall and to investigate the inﬂuence of abiotic variables and pruning on litter production. Litterfall was collected at monthly intervals for 2 years in trees subjected to different pruning intensities in two locations. The effect of pruning, abiotic variables and tree size on litter production was analyzed using a mathematical model. Leaf fall was strongly seasonal with a peak occurring in the wettest month of the year in this area. The variability in leaf fall was mainly related to rainfall and soil water in 2 years and locations. Pruning reduced the amount of litter production during the ﬁrst year following this practice, and might have negative effect on soil fertility and crop productivity in dehesas ecosystems.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue></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%">Reyes-Acosta, J Leonardo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lubczynski, Maciek W</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Optimization of dry-season sap flow measurements in an oak semi-arid open woodland in Spain</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ecohydrology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">HFD</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">natural temperature gradient</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus pyrenaica</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">radial and azimuthal sap flow variability</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">sap flow</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">semi-arid open forest</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">TDP</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year></dates><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">n/a--n/a</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">In sap flow studies, there is no method complying with high efficiency and versatility of sap flow measurements. To improve that, we propose combining two methods: (1) thermal dissipation probe (TDP) known to be efficient and cost effective and (2) heat field deformation (HFD) known to be versatile. For that purpose, we used a step-wise TDP sap flux density (Jp) optimization method consisting of (1) natural temperature gradient (NTG) correction applying the cyclic heat dissipation (CHD) method, (2) night flow ΔTmax correction using HFD data as reference and (3) radial-azimuthal correction using HFD as reference. We applied this optimization method on Quercus ilex (Q.i.) and Quercus pyrenaica (Q.p.) trees in a Spanish semi-arid open woodland during dry season. The NTG correction resulted in substantial reduction of Jp as compared with standard TDP. The subsequent ΔTmax night flow correction resulted in the increase of NTG-corrected Jp and good agreement with the outermost 2 cm of HFD measurements for both species. The final radial-azimuthal adjustment of TDP Jp resulted not only, in a good agreement with HFD Jp, but also provided novel ecohydrological insights such as: (1) evidence of continuous night flow in all Q.p. trees and some Q.i. trees, (2) exponential reduction of Jp with sapwood depth for both species, (3) significantly larger Jp in the outermost 1 cm of sapwood for Q.p. than for Q.i. and (4) high azimuthal Jp variability for both species. The presented study offers efficient and versatile method of tree sap flow measurements that contributed to a better understanding of water-related dynamics of Q.i. and Q.p. under water-stress conditions.

Moreover, there is scant information about the effect of salvage logging on ecosystem processes mediated by species interactions. We manipulated a burnt pine forest to experimentally analyze the effect of burnt-wood management on the colonization of Holm oak (Quercus ilex) mediated by acorn dispersal by Eurasian jays (Garrulus glandarius). Three replicates of three treatments were established in an 18-ha plot: salvage logging (SL), non-intervention (NI), and partial cut plus lopping (PCL; felling and lopping most of the trees but leaving all the biomass in situ). We hypothesized that different burnt-wood management could alter jays' landscape perception and thus the pattern of seed dispersal and seedling recruitment. We monitored jay abundance in each treatment for three winters and three breeding periods, and jay flights of potential acorn dispersal between nearby oak trees and the treatments. We also searched for oak seedlings recruited in the experimental plot for five years following the fire. Jays were recorded significantly more times (87%) in NI, and movements to this treatment during the acorn dispersal period were also more frequent (81% of the flights). Oak seedlings were also more abundant in NI (ca. 55%) than in SL or PCL (ca. 25% each), despite a strong effect of small remnants of live pines. The results show that the burnt forest, if unsalvaged, still provides a suitable habitat for jays, while salvage logging reduces the strength of this key plant-animal interaction for oak natural regeneration. Nonintervention policies after a forest fire therefore provide the opportunity for adaptive management that helps reduce restoration costs and increase the resilience of the system.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;pub-location: 1990 M STREET NW, STE 700, WASHINGTON, DC 20036 USA&lt;br/&gt;publisher: ECOLOGICAL SOC AMER</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%">Muñoz, Alberto</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bonal, Raul</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Espelta, Josep Maria</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Responses of a scatter-hoarding rodent to seed morphology: links between seed choices and seed variability</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Animal Behaviour</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">acorn</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Algerian mouse</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">animal-plant interaction</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">handling cost</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">hoarding behaviour</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holm oak</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mus spretus</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">seed caching</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">small rodent</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Elsevier Ltd</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">84</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1435-1442</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Seed preferences of scatter-hoarding granivores may inﬂuence the evolution of seed traits in plants. However, there is little evidence linking the granivores’ responses to speciﬁc seed traits to the variability of seeds in a single plant species. This information is essential for understanding how the decisions of granivores can shape plant life histories. We analysed how seed morphology (size and shape) of the Holm oak, Quercus ilex, inﬂuences seed choices of the seed-disperser, the Algerian mouse, Mus spretus. We studied the seed variability of the oak and whether the frequency of seed phenotypes matched the seed choices of the disperser. The probabilities of seed removal decreased as the seeds became larger and more bullet-shaped, so that seeds that were simultaneously large and bullet-shaped had the lowest probabilities of being dispersed. These seeds are probably refused by rodents because they impose higher handling and transport costs. The size and shape of the Holm oak seeds were highly variable between trees, but extraordinarily consistent within a single tree over different years. However, the analysis of seed variability revealed a disproportionately low frequency of large bullet-shaped phenotypes, which are those barely removed by rodents. Seed preferences of dispersers of species with high seed variability between trees can lead to differences in the chances of seeds produced by different trees being dispersed. Those seed phenotypes preferred by dispersers could make a higher contribution to the next generation, which could inﬂuence the evolution and variability of seeds in a plant species</style></abstract></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%">Llusia, Joan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Penuelas, Josep</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Seco, Roger</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Filella, Iolanda</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Seasonal changes in the daily emission rates of terpenes by Quercus ilex and the atmospheric concentrations of terpenes in the natural park of Montseny, NE Spain</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Atmospheric Chemistry</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">montseny</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Seasonality</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Terpene air concentrations</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Terpene emission rates</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">VOC</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">69</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">215-230</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">We studied the daily patterns in the rates of terpene emissions by the montane holm oak, Quercus ilex, in three typical days of winter and three typical days of summer in Montseny, a natural park near Barcelona, and related them to the air concentrations of terpenes, ozone and NO2 .

Location P. sylvestris forest in Central Pyrenees (NE Spain) affected by a severe drought in 2004–2005. Methods Despite increased focus on climate-related forest die-off, studies of the effects on regeneration processes following extreme drought remain scarce. We analysed whether an episode of drought-induced mortality on the dominant P. sylvestris L. may act as a driver of vegetation shift. Seedlings of Quercus humilis Mill. and Q. ilex L. from 27 plots were sampled under P. sylvestris canopies with &lt;50% and ≥50% defoliation (standing dead trees included) to determine age distribution and radial growth using a retrospective, dendrochronological approach. Results Drought-induced canopy losses appear not to be compensated by regeneration of P. sylvestris. Recruitment of below-canopy tree species (specifically Q. humilis and Q. ilex) that could potentially become dominant was high in the entire studied area. However, the spatial patterns of Quercus spp. regeneration following the 2004–2005 drought were complex. While the emergence of new Quercus spp. seedlings was reduced under open, drought-induced canopies, growth of seedlings already established was favoured in open-canopy conditions. Conclusions Although the effects of extreme drought events may disfavour the establishment of new recruits, enhanced growth responses of a pre-established seedling bank could still contribute to accelerate forest dynamics under drier conditions. Because of the predicted increases in intensity and frequency of extreme droughts, monitoring studies are key to elucidate whether the initial patterns observed will be maintained in the long term, eventually leading to a vegetation shift.</style></abstract></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%">González González, I.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Grau Corbí, J.

As a contribution to the understanding of the factors that inﬂuence the carbon sequestration capacity of Mediterranean forest soils, the present study focuses on the quantiﬁcation of the superﬁcial soil carbon stocks in evergreen oak stands (Quercus ilex L.) representative of its distribution area in Mainland Spain and to analyze the inﬂuence of site factors (climate and topography) and the soil chemical properties in the topsoil carbon storage capacity. For that purpose, 103 Quercus ilex stands were studied grouped in four main formations: 40 wooded grassland ecosystems with scattered oak trees (dehesas), 14 open Holm oak stands, 28 mixed Holm oak forests and 21 dense Holm oak forests. The soil organic carbon stocks (SOCS) in the upper organo-mineral soil layer ranged between 1.4–15.6 kg m -2 and total soil carbon stocks (TSCS) between 1.4–17.9 kg m -2 . Tree density was a signiﬁcant factor for SOC storage in the soil. The wooded grassland dehesas presented the minimum superﬁcial SOC stocks (3.6 kg m -2 ), while dense Holm oak forests reached the maximum average values (7.6 kg m -2 ). Maximum SOCS ([10 kg m -2 ) were measured in the mixed and dense Holm oak forests over soils with calcareous substrates. Summer mean temperature (R = -0.46; P\0.001) was the climatic variable that most inﬂuenced the SOCS. Soil properties had stronger positive correlations with SOCS than site factors: nitrogen concentrations (R = 0.70; P\0.001), clay content (R = 0.62; P\0.001), soluble calcium (R = 0.60; P\0.001) and magnesium (R = 0.42; P\0.001). Climatic and topographic variables together explained 30 % of the SOCS variability. An increase up to 63 % was obtained by including soil variables. Under Mediterranean climate conditions, the soil properties that enhance the organic matter protection achieve a notable relevance. The soil carbon storage is favored by large organic matter inputs, high soil clay contents, a calcium-saturated soil matrix and reduced summer aridity.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue></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%">Cuesta, B.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rey Benayas, J.

These may undergo secondary succession or reforestation. We experimentally tested the response of soil chemical properties to secondary succession (old ﬁeld) and to Quercus ilex plantation (reforested cropland) in a Mediterranean cropland that was abandoned 13 years ago. We also evaluated the relevance of previous reforestation management (four combinations of presence and absence of irrigation and shading) in addition to current environmental conditions (herbaceous community and cover of oak canopy) on soil chemistry in the reforested cropland. Carbon and NH4 þ eN concentrations and availability of mineral N were higher in the reforested cropland than in the old ﬁeld. However, soil pH, total N, P, K and NO3 eN concentrations, mineralization rates, and available PO4 3 eP were similar in the reforested cropland as well as in the old ﬁeld. Previous reforestation management practices, particularly irrigation, and current environmental conditions, mostly biomass and composition of the herbaceous community, affected soil chemistry. Irrigation increased K and P concentrations and NH4 þ eN availability. This study highlights the overall slow dynamics of soil chemistry in Mediterranean ecosystems, which has resulted in little variation of soil properties in reforested cropland after more than a decade. Reforestation can accelerate the recovery of some soil properties of abandoned cropland in comparison with secondary succession, but these effects will be more noticeable in longer time periods.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Elsevier Masson SAS</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%">Alameda, David</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Villar, Rafael</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Iriondo, José M.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Spatial pattern of soil compaction: Trees’ footprint on soil physical properties</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest Ecology and Management</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bulk density</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Herbaceous production</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">organic matter</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Penetration resistance</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pinus pinaster</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2012///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0378112712004148</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">283</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">128 - 137</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Soil compaction, a determinant of forest regeneration and ecosystem functioning (e.g., biomass production), can show an aggregated spatial pattern which can be shaped by the effect of tree canopy. This work studies the inﬂuence of tree canopy type (Quercus ilex subsp. ballota, and Pinus pinaster) on the spatial distribution of variables related to soil compaction in a Mediterranean forest in southern Spain. The spatial structure of this plant-soil interaction was analyzed using the spatial analysis by distance indices methodology (SADIE). Our results showed that variables related to soil compaction, such as bulk density, penetration resistance, water content and organic matter, showed an aggregated spatial pattern which was associated to the species’ tree canopy and presence of open sites. Thus, high organic matter content and low bulk density were found under the Quercus canopy, whereas the contrary was observed under the Pinus canopy. Open sites showed similar soil properties to those than under the Pinus canopy. Soil compaction pattern and tree canopy had a clear effect on herbaceous production. In two consecutive years (2007 and 2008), herbaceous production was higher under the Quercus canopy than under the Pinus canopy. Mean values of herbaceous production in open sites were similar to those under the Quercus canopy, and no spatial association was found between open sites and herbaceous production. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to describe the causal relationships between tree canopy types, soil compaction related variables and herbaceous production. Results showed that tree canopy affects soil compaction variables and its effects on herbaceous production are mainly produced by a positive effect of organic matter (at 2–7 cm depth) and a negative effect of penetration resistance (at 9–14 cm depth). Therefore, forest management should consider that the replacement of one species for another or changes in tree density are likely to have important consequences in soil compaction and ecosystem functioning.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Elsevier B.V.</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%">Rivest, David</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rolo, Víctor</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">López-Díaz, M Lourdes</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Moreno, Gerardo</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Belowground competition for nutrients in shrub-encroached Mediterranean dehesas</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nutrient Cycling in Agroecosystems</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cistus ladanifer</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dry matter production</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Native pasture</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nutrient uptake</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">retama sphaerocarpa</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Silvopastoral systems</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">90</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">347-354</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Managing multilayered silvopastoral systems such as Mediterranean dehesas requires the study of nutrient resource partitioning among coexisting species and determination to what extent soil nutrients are limiting plant growth. We determined the effects of NPK fertilisation maintained over two consecutive years on dry matter production and nutritional status of pasture (herbaceous) species, two shrub species and Quercus ilex L. in two silvopastoral sites with different shrub-layer species. We selected two prominent Mediterranean shrub species that vary in their speciﬁc ecological strategies: a N2-ﬁxing and sparse deep-rooting shrub (Retama sphaerocarpa (L.) Boiss, Retama site), and a dense shallow-rooting shrub (Cistus ladanifer L., Cistus site). Fertilisation signiﬁcantly (P B 0.05) increased pasture dry mass by 460% and 1,090% in the Retama and Cistus sites, respectively. Nitrogen uptake by pasture species was most stimulated in both sites, and was the major limiting nutrient for this group. At the Cistus site, fertilisation signiﬁcantly increased leaf dry mass of Q. ilex by 53%, but no signiﬁcant effect was found at the Retama site. There were no signiﬁcant effects of fertilisation treatments on dry mass and nutrient status of Retama cladodes and Cistus leaves. Vector analysis revealed that the magnitude of relative changes in nutrient uptake and dry matter production of pasture in response to fertilisation was markedly higher than that of Q. ilex, R. sphaerocarpa and C. ladanifer, suggesting high competitive ability of pasture species for soil nutrients. Results suggest that patterns of soil nutrient partitioning are site-speciﬁc and, thus, likely depend on the dominant species in the shrub layer</style></abstract></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, Augusta</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Madeira, Manuel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lima Santos, José</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Oliveira, Ângelo</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Change and dynamics in Mediterranean evergreen oak woodlands landscapes of Southwestern Iberian Peninsula</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Landscape and Urban Planning</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">land use</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean evergreen oak woodlands</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus suber</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Socioeconomic driving forces</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vegetation cover metrics</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0169204611001691</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">102</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">164 - 176</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Landscapes with open evergreen oak woodlands in Southwestern Iberian Peninsula have been subjected to a consistent oak forest loss. In these landscapes, the abandonment of traditional land management activities have been associated with major land use transformations, such as the replacement of agricultural land uses and native oakwoodlands by both shrublands and fast-growing Eucalyptus and pine (Pinus pinea L.) plantations. In this study a spatially explicit approach, combining aerial photographs, geographical information systems and land covermetrics, was used to assess long-termlandscape dynamics over a 50-year period. The aim was to provide interpreted quantitative information on the landscape dynamics and to determine the key roles of open farmland, shrubland and new forest plantations on the ongoing loss and fragmentation of oak woodlands. Different trends of land abandonment and intensiﬁcation of land uses were found across the study areas mainly related to combination of particular socioeconomic and biophysical conditions, resulting in different types of evergreen oak forest conservation and restoration issues. A comprehensive assessment ofthese (biophysical and socioeconomic) change driving forces is, therefore, presented and discussed, as a baseline for future planning by setting of appropriate management, restoration and conservation strategies for oak woodlands in the studied landscapes. Although this study focused on a speciﬁc system of Southwestern Mediterranean, the methodology applied herein can be extrapolated to other comparable human-driven scattered tree systems, within cultural landscapes.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Elsevier B.V.</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%">Ogaya, Romà</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Penuelas, Josep</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Asensio, Dolores</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Llusia, Joan</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chlorophyll fluorescence responses to temperature and water availability in two co-dominant Mediterranean shrub and tree species in a long-term field experiment simulating climate change</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Environmental and Experimental Botany</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chlorophyll ﬂuorescence</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">climate change</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cold</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Drought</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">evergreen leaves</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fv/Fm</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Heat</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">mediterranean forest</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phillyrea latifolia</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S009884721100178X</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">73</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">89 - 93</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A rain exclusion experiment simulating drought conditions expected in Mediterranean areas for the following decades (15% decrease in soil moisture) is being conducted since 1999 in a Mediterranean holm oak forest to study its response to the forecasted climatic changes for the coming decades. The maximum PSII quantum yield of primary photochemistry (Fv/Fm) was measured in Quercus ilex, and Phillyrea latifolia, the co-dominant species of the studied forest, from 1999 to 2009 in four plots: two of them were control plots and the other two plots received the rain exclusion treatment. In both species, the Fv/Fm values were highly dependent on air temperatures, and in a second term, in water availability. P. latifolia was the species with the larger decrease in Fv/Fm values induced by low air temperatures, while in hot seasons, the Fv/Fm values in P. latifolia were even higher than in Q. ilex. Rainfall exclusion decrease Fv/Fm values signiﬁcantly only in few monitoring dates. The most drought resistant species P. latifolia was more affected by the experimental rainfall exclusion than Q. ilex that instead lost number of leaves per tree. There was a synergic effect of drought stress and winter cold in P. latifolia not observed in Q. ilex, but a more conservative strategy in P. latifolia maintaining leaves with a down-regulation of the linear photosynthetic electron transport. These results indicate that, although other physiological and reproductive strategies at whole plant level must be also taken into account, the warmer and drier environment expected for the following decades could favour the species more sensitive to cold and more resistant to drought, the shrub P. latifolia, in detriment of the tree Q. ilex as already observed in the ﬁeld after severe heat-drought episodes.</style></abstract></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%">Valdecantos, Alejandro</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cortina, Jordi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vallejo, V Ramón</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Differential field response of two Mediterranean tree species to inputs of sewage sludge at the seedling stage</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ecological Engineering</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biomass allocation pattern</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biosolids</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foliar isotopic composition</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pinus halepensis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Restoration</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vector diagnose</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Elsevier B.V.</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">37</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1350-1359</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Land degradation and desertiﬁcation is a common feature in Mediterranean landscapes due to extensive and intensive land use and natural orman induced disturbances. The ecosystemmay need external inputs to recover its composition and function as soils are often impoverished and vegetal key stone species lost. We evaluated the effects of the application of fresh and air-dried biosolids in the establishment and morphological and physiological performance of seedlings of Pinus halepensis and Quercus ilex under dry Mediterranean ﬁeld conditions. Seedling survival was not affected by biosolid treatments in any of the studied species both two and ten years after planting. During the ﬁrst two years, growth was enhanced by the two biosolid treatments in relation to control, although the change in the biomass allocation pattern differed between species. Rooting depthwas signiﬁcantly enhanced by liquid biosolid in Q. ilex and marginally reduced in P. halepensis as well as the exploration of soil. As a consequence, root-to-shoot ratio reduced signiﬁcantly with dry and liquid sludge due to promoted aboveground growth whilemaintaining and even reducing belowground fractions.An improvement ofthe nutritional status, offertilized seedlings especially of phosphorus, is the explanation for the better ﬁeld performance. Vector analysis revealed an important phosphorus limitation for both species that was overcome with the application of liquid (both species) and air-dried biosolid (pine). The higher growth of pine seedlings attained in the liquid biosolid treatment was coupled with a signiﬁcant decrease in foliar 13 C, suggesting lower water use efﬁciency. The signiﬁcant increase in foliar 15 N in the biosolid treatments in both species suggested that a large proportion of the total nitrogen uptake came from the applied biosolids.

Average estimated acorn mass was 3.17 g acorn -1 in the Calan˜as location and 4.12 g acorn -1 in the San Bartolome´ location, with signiﬁcant differences between locations, among individual trees and across years. Acorns from the south sides of trees were signiﬁcantly heavier than those at other positions. The effect of pruning treatment and the interactions location 9 treatment and treatment 9 year were not signiﬁcant. Our study provides no evidence that pruning affects acorn mass. None of the analyzed covariates related to tree size, topographic position and intraspeciﬁc competition explained the difference among trees, suggesting that heritable factors play an important role. Speciﬁc climatic parameters during September, the most important month for acorn growth, may explain the effects of year and location 9 year on acorn mass. In addition, there appeared to be a ‘‘trade-off’’ between acorn mass and number of acorns.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue></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%">Karioti, Anastasia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tooulakou, Georgia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bilia, Anna Rita</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Psaras, George K.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Karabourniotis, George</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Skaltsa, Helen</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Erinea formation on Quercus ilex leaves: anatomical, physiological and chemical responses of leaf trichomes against mite attack.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phytochemistry</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fagaceae</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Leaf trichomes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mites</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phenolics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21131012</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">72</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">230 - 237</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Structures on the surfaces of leaves, such as dense layers of non-glandular trichomes, strongly affect phylloplane mite activities. On the other hand the feeding of eriophyoid mites on leaf surfaces can cause hyperplasia of leaf trichomes (erinea formation). In many cases the hyperplasia is accompanied by the accumulation of pigments within trichome cells, causing an impressive red-brown colouration of the erineum. There is no information, however, on the structure of these pigments as well as on the chemical alterations in the phenolic content of plant trichomes in response to mite attack. Erinea formation on the abaxial surface of Quercus ilex leaves upon Aceria ilicis (Acari: Eriophyoidea) attack provides an excellent model on this topic. Differences in the structure and chemical composition of isolated trichomes derived either from healthy (normal trichomes) or mite attacked (hypertrophic trichomes) leaves were examined. Carbon investment was comparable between the two different trichome types, but the cell walls of the hypertrophic trichomes appeared thinner and did not contain microcrystalline cellulose. Observations under the fluorescence microscope showed that the emitted fluorescence was different between the two trichome types, indicating a different composition in fluorescencing phenolic compounds. The chemical analyses confirmed that hypertrophic trichomes contained higher concentrations of the feeding deterrents proanthocyanidin B3 and catechin, as well as of quercetin-3-O-glucoside, but lower concentrations of acylated flavonoid glycosides, than the normal ones. The results showed that the structural and functional changes in leaf trichomes upon mite attack may be an effort of the leaf to compensate the damage caused by the pest.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2-3</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Elsevier Ltd&lt;br/&gt;accession-num: 21131012</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%">Oliet, Juan a</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Salazar, José M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Villar, Rafael</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Robredo, Eduardo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Valladares, Fernando</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fall fertilization of Holm oak affects N and P dynamics, root growth potential, and post-planting phenology and growth</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Annals of Forest Science</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">late season fertilization</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nutrient loading</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phosphorus</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">root growth potential</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.springerlink.com/index/10.1007/s13595-011-0060-8</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">68</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">647 - 656</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&amp; Introduction For Holm oak (Quercus ilex L.), a flush growing species, nutrient loading during the growing season is difficult and can lead to a low nutrient status of the seedlings. To provide insights about Holm oak nutrient dynamics during fall in the nursery and subsequent planting performance, a factorial nursery experiment was conducted in a mild fall–winter area testing the effects of timing of fertilization (early and late fall) and rate (two doses of a NPK fertilizer that applied 28 and 56 mg N per seedling), followed by an experimental plantation. &amp; Results Biomass, allocation pattern, shoot N and K, and root K were unaffected by both rate and timing of fall fertilization. However, shoot P concentration of fall fertilized plants was significantly increased, and root P concentration was enhanced by applying fertilizer at either the highest rate or during early fall. This revealed a different nutrient dynamics during fall that was dependent on the specific nutrient and plant component. &amp; Discussion Root growth potential was positively correlated to nursery root P concentration. Six months after planting, fall fertilized plants showed higher shoot biomass, higher proportion of new leaves, and faster development, producing leaves earlier compared with unfertilized plants. &amp; Conclusion It is concluded that early fall fertilization promotes nutrient loading of P in Holm oak, with significant effects on root growth potential and field growth by means of a phenologically earlier development and a higher aboveground biomass</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue></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%">Sánchez-Humanes, Belén</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Espelta, Josep Maria</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Increased drought reduces acorn production in Quercus ilex coppices: thinning mitigates this effect but only in the short term</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%">acorn production</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Drought</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean forest (voyant)</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">thinning</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://forestry.oxfordjournals.org/content/84/1/73.abstract</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">84</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">73 - 82</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">In order to explore the effects of climate change on Mediterranean regenerating forests, we experimentally assessed the effects of increased drought on the reproductive attributes of Quercus ilex over a 4-year period (2005–2008). We also investigated whether traditional thinning (selection of one to a few stems per stump) could mitigate the consequences of increased drought in oak coppices. Increased drought reduced the number of reproductive trees, mean number of female flowers produced and acorn crop size, although most of these effects appeared only in the last 2 years of the experiment. In a different way, thinning enhanced all reproductive attributes, but its main effects were transient and covered only 1 or 2 years after the application of the treatments. Our results indicate that a moderate reduction in rainfall (15 per cent) reduces the reproductive ability of Q. ilex. This may have long-term negative consequences for recruitment as well as for the fauna feeding on acorns. Although traditional thinning may mitigate the consequences of increased drought, it has a remarkably short-term effect. This highlights the need to re-examine traditional forestry practices as potential adaptive strategies for coping with climate change in Mediterranean regenerating forests.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/forestry/cpq04510.1093/forestry/cpq045</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%">Blanch, Josep-salvador</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Llusia, Joan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Niinemets, Ülo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Noe, Steffen M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Penuelas, Josep</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Instantaneous and historical temperature effects on α -pinene emissions in Pinus halepensis and Quercus ilex</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Environmental Biology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">acclimation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">emission model</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pinus halepensis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">previous climate effects</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">332</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1 - 6</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">We compared the role of instantaneous temperature and temperature history in the determination of α-pinene emissions in Mediterranean conifer Pinus halepensis that stores monoterpenes in resin ducts, and in Mediterranean broad-leaved evergreen Quercus ilex that lacks such specialized storage structures. In both species, α-pinene emission rates (E) exhibited a significant exponential correlation with leaf temperature and the rates of photosynthetic electron transport (JCO 2 +O 2 ) started to decrease after an optimum at approximately 35 o C. However, there was a higher dependence of E on mean temperature of previous days than on mean temperature of current day for P. halepensis but not for Q. ilex. JCO 2 +O 2 showed a maximum relationship to mean temperature of previous 3 and 5 days for P. halepensis and Q. ilex respectively. We conclude that although the best correlation of emission rates were found for instantaneous foliar temperatures, the effect of accumulated previous temperature conditions should also be considered in models of monoterpene emission, especially for terpene storing species.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">January</style></issue></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%">Zavala, MIGUEL a</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Espelta, Josep M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Caspersen, John</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Retana, Javier</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Interspecific differences in sapling performance with respect to light and aridity gradients in Mediterranean pine–oak forests: implications for species coexistence</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Canadian Journal of Forest Research</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">growth (voyant)</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">light</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pinus halepensis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">sapling mortality</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Water availability</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">NRC Research Press</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">41</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1432-1444</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The relative abundance of two codominant Mediterranean tree species, shade-tolerant Quercus ilex L. and shade-intolerant Pinus halepensis Mill., is inversely correlated along aridity gradients, but this pattern is not explained by seedling responses to water or light availability, suggesting that subsequent life history stages may explain forest composition. To test this hypothesis, we calibrated statistical models of sapling growth and height–diameter allometry as functions of light availability and climatic variation as well as models of sapling mortality as a function of growth history. Contrary to the expectation of a sun–shade growth trade-off, P. halepensis grew faster than Q. ilex saplings at both low and high light levels. Low precipitation and aridity suppressed sapling growth rates, but no evidence of a shade–drought growth trade-off was found either. Pinus halepensis sapling mortality was strongly growth dependent, exhibiting high mortality rates at low growth, but the mortality of Q. ilex saplings was not. Height–diameter allometric variation was higher in low- than in high-light environments and was more pronounced with respect to changes in light than climatic water. Our results suggest that interspecific differences in sapling mortality and plasticity, rather than growth, may control species distributions at the mesic end of the aridity gradient.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">doi: 10.1139/x11-050</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">doi: 10.1139/x11-050</style></research-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%">Muñoz, Alberto</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bonal, Raul</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Linking seed dispersal to cache protection strategies.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Ecology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">directed dispersal</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">granivores</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">plant recruitment</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">savanna-like landscapes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">seed caching</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">seed predation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">seedling emergence</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">small rodents</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1111/j.1365-2745.2011.01818.xhttp://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&amp;db=a9h&amp;AN=61214772&amp;lang=pt-br&amp;site=ehost-live&amp;scope=site</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">99</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1016 - 1025</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The spatial distribution of dispersed seeds results from the combined action of the caching strategies followed by different granivores. Hence, it is essential to study the factors that influence seed predation and caching decisions to achieve a better understanding of the dispersal process. In this study, we document how seed dispersal and the spatial patterns of natural recruitment are linked to the strategies used by granivores to protect their cached seeds from pilferage. We present a theoretical model showing that those strategies may convey benefits for both seed cachers and plants. We studied the relationships among seed production, seed predation/caching, cache pilferage and plant recruitment in a savanna-like landscape of oaks dispersed by scatter-hoarding rodents. Our results show that acorn-dispersing rodents were concentrated under the canopies of scattered oaks, where the theft of cached acorns increased by 77% as compared to that of the surrounding open landscape. Acorns were thus cached selectively in the open areas to reduce pilferage; in fact, none of the few seeds cached beneath tree canopies survived predation by granivores (pilferage + recovery). Meanwhile, some acorns cached in the surrounding open areas were neither pilfered nor recovered and then recruited successfully. Accordingly, natural recruitment of newly emerged seedlings was higher outside than under canopies, suggesting that rodent caching strategies have direct implications for the directed dispersal of oaks. Synthesis. The spatial patterns of seed dispersal shape the fitness of both the plant because they influence dispersal and recruitment efficiency, and the granivores that cache and predate its seeds because they influence their foraging efficiency. Cache protection strategies reduce pilferage significantly and enhance seed recovery rates by the cache owner. At the same time, more seeds remain dispersed and unrecovered. Thus, cache protection strategies can provide net benefits to the plant in terms of effective directed dispersal.

This is particularly true in the Mediterranean basin, where important future climatic changes are expected. Here, we assess and compare two commonly used modeling approaches (niche- and process-based models) to project the future of current stands of three forest species with contrasting distributions, using regionalized climate for continental Spain. Results highlight variability in model ability to estimate current distributions, and the inherent large uncertainty involved in making projections into the future. CO2 fertilization through projected increased atmospheric CO2 concentrations is shown to increase forest productivity in the mechanistic process-based model (despite increased drought stress) by up to three times that of the non-CO2 fertilization scenario by the period 2050–2080, which is in stark contrast to projections of reduced habitat suitability from the niche-based models by the same period. This highlights the importance of introducing aspects of plant biogeochemistry into current niche-based models for a realistic projection of future species distributions. We conclude that the future of current Mediterranean forest stands is highly uncertain and suggest that a new synergy between niche- and process-based models is urgently needed in order to improve our predictive ability.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd</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%">Liñán, Juana</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cantos, Manuel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Troncoso, Javier</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">García, José L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fernández, Antonio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Troncoso, Antonio</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Some propagation methods for cloning holm oak (Quercus ilex L.) plants</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Central European Journal of Biology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holm oak</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">in vitro</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">plant regeneration</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">rooting</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">seed germination</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2011</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">359-364</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holm oak (Quercus ilex L.), a typical evergreen tree of the Mediterranean area, is very important due to its ecological and economical values.

We aimed to study the effects of the decreases in soil water availability forecast for the next decades by global circulation models and ecophysio logical models on the terpene emissions by two widely distributed Mediterranean woody species, Phillyrea latifolia L. and Quercus ilex L. We subjected holm oak forest plots to an experimental soil drought of ca. 20% decrease in soil moisture by partial rainfall exclusion and runoff exclusion. We measured the emission rates throughout the seasons for two years with contrasting precipitation and soil moisture (16.6% average in 2003 vs. 6.4% as average in 2005). Among the detected volatile terpenes, only αpinene and limonene were present in detectable quantities in all of the studied periods. Total terpene emitted ranged from practically zero (spring 2003) to 3.6 and 58.3 μg/(g dry wt h) (winter 2005 and summer 2003 for P. latifolia and Q. ilex, respec tively). A clear seasonality was found in the emission rates (they were the highest in summer in both species) and also in the qualitative composition of the emission mix. Maximum emissions of αpinene occurred in spring and maximum emissions of limonene in winter. Neither the interannual differences in water availabil ity nor the rain exclusion treatment significantly affected the emissions in P. latifolia, but Q. ilex showed by 17% lower emissions during the drier second year of study, 2005, but more than two and threefold increases with the drought treatment in summer 2003 and in summer 2005, respectively, showing historical accumu lated effects. These results, which show increased monoterpene emission under the moderate drought pro duced by the treatment and decreased emission under the severe second year drought, and a much higher sen sitivity to drought in Q. ilex than in P. latifolia, are useful in understanding the behavior of plant volatiles under Mediterranean conditions and in modeling future emission under changing climate conditions.

Successful long-term management of a perennial plantation replacing an annual crop requires understanding the system in all phases of the life cycle, and in the case of trufﬂes this involves understanding the interactive growth of the aboveground host and the belowground symbiotic ectomycorrhizal fungus whose fruitbody is the desired trufﬂe. Here we focus on the pre-production phase, 4 years after establishing the trufﬂe-oak plantation and prior to trufﬂe production. We tested the inﬂuence of weed control, irrigation and fertilizer, each at 3 levels, on plant growth and ectomycorrhizal proliferation in three trufﬂe-oaks plantations in northeast Spain. Results show that adequate weed control improves root and shoot dry weight while fertilizer and irrigation treatments did not inﬂuence plant growth. The low dose of irrigation (50% of the estimated water deﬁcit for the site) and glyphosate weed control both increased total root tips/plant and T. melanosporum colonized tips (ectomycorrhizae) by approximately two-fold, compared to control treatments. Distribution of the ectomycorrhizae within the soil proﬁle was signiﬁcantly inﬂuenced by the low dose irrigation treatment, with increases observed in the 10–20 cm and the 20–30 cm deep layers compared to the control and high irrigation treatments. Four years after planting, T. melanosporum remained the dominant fungal symbiont, despite the presence of 14 other ectomycorrhizal morphotypes from these sites.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue></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%">Dias, J.

To promote restoration of original tree stands, Quercus ilex L. and Pinus pinaster Ait. were used as target species on two sites, denoted Site 1 and 2 respectively. The aim of the study was to assess whether mycorrhizal propagules that survived fire episodes could serve as in situ inoculum sources, and to analyse the spatial distribution of soil nutrients and mycorrhizal parameters. In a laboratory bioassay, P. pinaster and Q. ilex seedlings were grown on soils from the target sites and root colonisation by ectomycorrhizal (ECM) and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi was determined. The ECM root colonisation levels found indicated that soil from Site 2 contained sufficient ECM propagules to serve as a primary source of inoculum for P. pinaster. The low levels of ECM and AM colonisation obtained on the roots of plants grown in soil from Site 1 indicated that the existing mycorrhizal propagules might be insufficient for effective root colonisation of Q. ilex. Different ECM morphotypes were found in plants grown in soil from the two sites. At Site 2 mycorrhizal parameters were found to be spatially structured, with signif icant differences in ECM colonisation and soil P concentrations between regions of either side of an existing watercourse. The spatial distribution of mycorrhizal propagules was related to edaphic parameters (total C and extractable P), and correlations between soil nutrients and mycorrhizal parameters were found.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Special issue (S1).

The predawn leaf water potential (ΨlPD), stomatal conductance (gs) and photosynthetic rate (A) at ambient conditions were measured seasonally over a 3-year period. We also measured the photosynthetic response to light and to intercellular CO2 (A/PPFD and A/Ci response curves) under water stress (summer) and after recovery due to autumn rainfall. Photosynthetic parameters, Vcmax, Jmax and triose phosphate utilization (TPU) rate, were estimated using the Farquhar model. RuBisCo activity, leaf chlorophyll, leaf nitrogen concentration and leaf carbohydrate concentration were also measured. All measurements were performed in the spring leaves of the current year. In both species, the predawn leaf water potential, stomatal conductance and photosynthetic rate peaked in spring, progressively declined throughout the summer and recovered upon autumn rainfall. During the drought period, Q. ilex maintained a higher predawn leaf water potential and stomatal conductance than Q. suber. During this period, we found that photosynthesis was not only limited by stomatal closure, but was also downregulated as a consequence of a decrease in the maximum carboxylation rate (Vcmax) and the light-saturated rate of photosynthetic electron transport (Jmax) in both species. The Vcmax and Jmax increased after the first autumnal rains and this increase was related to RuBisCo activity, leaf nitrogen concentration and chlorophyll concentration. In addition, an increase in the TPU rate and in soluble leaf sugar concentration was observed in this period. The results obtained indicate a high resilience of the photosynthetic apparatus to summer drought as well as good recovery in the following autumn rains of these evergreen oak species.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/treephys/tpq044</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/treephys/tpq044</style></research-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%">Agueda, Beatriz</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fernández-Toirán, Luz Marina</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">de Miguel, Ana María</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Martínez Peña, Fernando</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ectomycorrhizal status of a mature productive black truffle plantation</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest Systems; Vol 19, No 1 (2010)</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AROTZ-CATESA company</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">characterization of ectomycorrhizae</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">fungal diversity</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">truffle plantations</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tuber melanosporum</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://revistas.inia.es/index.php/fs/article/view/1170</style></url></web-urls></urls><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The truffle-plantation “Los Quejigares” was planted in 1971 by AROTZ-CATESA company. It is a 600 ha plot of Quercus ilex mycorrhizated with Tuber melanosporum at 1250 m a.s.l. on calcareous soil. This plantation is the largest of the world and one of the eldest truffle-plantations of Spain and it is in full production. Knowledge of the mycorrhizal status of a mature black truffle plantation is significant for the improvement of truffle cultivation. Ectomycorrhizae were studied for knowing T. melanosporum persistence and diversity and abundance of other ectomycorrhizal types. Roots of 16 holmoaks were sampled, 12 trees produce truffle sporocarps and four did not. It was found a mean of about 70% of T. melanosporum ectomycorrhizae in all the studied trees, independently of their capacity to produce or not sporocarps. Also, 105 more different ectomycorrhizal types were found. In spite of the high number of morphotypes found, it seems that they do not replace T. melanosporum, showing that there is a coexistence between species in the fungal community associated to the roots.</style></abstract></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%">Cuesta, Bárbara</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Villar-Salvador, Pedro</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Puértolas, Jaime</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rey Benayas, José M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Michalet, Richard</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Facilitation of Quercus ilex in Mediterranean shrubland is explained by both direct and indirect interactions mediated by herbs</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Ecology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">chlorophyll fluorescence</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">herb competition</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">retama sphaerocarpa</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">seedling size</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">water potential</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2745.2010.01655.xhttp://doi.wiley.com/10.1111/j.1365-2745.2010.01655.x</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">98</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">687 - 696</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1. Competitive and facilitative interactions shape plant communities. Whereas a number of studies have addressed competition and direct facilitation among plants in dry ecosystems, indirect facilitation has received little attention. 2. We investigated the relative importance of direct and indirect facilitation by the nurse plant Retama sphaerocarpa on late-successional Quercus ilex seedlings mediated by herb suppression in a Mediterranean shrubland in 2006 and 2007. We also studied whether facilitation outcome depended on the size of the facilitated seedlings. 3. A field experiment was carried out to test the effect of (i) position of Q. ilex seedling with respect to shrub canopy (under shrubs or in gaps), (ii) herb competition (presence or absence), and (iii) seedling size. 2006 was an average rainfall year while 2007 had a much more humid spring and a dryer summer than 2006. 4. In both years, nurse shrubs reduced seedling mortality whereas herbs increased it. In the average rainfall year, seedling mortality under shrubs was unaffected by herbs whereas in gaps it was significantly higher in presence of herbs. This showed that the nurse shrub indirectly facilitated the seedlings by reducing the competitive capacity of herbs. Conversely, facilitation was predominately direct during the humid spring and dry summer year since herbs hindered seedling survival similarly under the nurse shrub and in gaps. The nurse shrub directly facilitated the seedlings by reducing seedling photoinhibition and water stress. 5. Improvement of environmental conditions by Retama benefited smaller seedlings but not larger seedlings since the nurse shrub reduced mortality of smaller seedlings relative to that in gaps, but this effect was not observed for larger seedlings. This indicates that individuals within a seedling population may not have the same response to facilitation. 6. Synthesis. Both indirect and direct facilitation are important mechanisms for Q. ilex regeneration in Retama shrubland and their importance seems to vary with climatic conditions. Indirect facilitation by release of herb competition under nurse shrubs is important in years of dry springs when competition between nurse shrubs and herbs is high, whereas direct facilitation mediated by microclimate amelioration increases with summer aridity.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd</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%">Fleck, Isabel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Peña-Rojas, Karen</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Aranda, Xavier</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mesophyll conductance to CO2 and leaf morphological characteristics under drought stress during Quercus ilex L. resprouting</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Annals of Forest Science</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">carbon isotopic composition</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaf structure</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">mesophyll conductance</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">photosynthesis limitants</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.springerlink.com/openurl.asp?id=doi:10.1051/forest/2009114</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">67</style></volume><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">• Quercus ilex L., the dominant species in Mediterranean forests and one with a great capacity for resprouting after disturbances, is threatened by the expected increase in ﬁre frequency and drought associated with climate change. • The aim of this study was to determine the contribution of photosynthesis limitants, especially mesophyll conductance (gmes ) during this species’ resprouting and under summer drought. • Resprouts showed 5.3-fold increased gmes and 3.8-fold increased stomatal conductance (gs ) at midday with respect to leaves of undisturbed individuals. With increased drought, structural changes (decreased density and increased thickness) in resprouts contributed to the observed higher photosynthesis and increased gmes . However, gmes only partially depended on leaf structure, and was also under physiological control. Resprouts also showed lower non-stomatal limitations (around 50% higher carboxylation velocity (Vc,max) and capacity for ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate regeneration (Jmax)). A signiﬁcant contribution of gmes to leaf carbon isotope discrimination values was observed. • gmes exhibits a dominant role in photosynthesis limitation in Q. ilex and is regulated by factors other than morphology. During resprouting after disturbances, greater capacity to withstand drought, as evidenced by higher gmes , gs and lower non-stomatal limitants, enables increased photosynthesis and rapid growth.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue></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%">Inclán, Rosa</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Uribe, Carla</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sánchez, Laura</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sánchez, Dolores M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Clavero, Ángeles</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fernández, Ana María</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Morante, Ramón</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Blanco, Alfredo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jandl, Robert</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">N2O and CH4 fluxes in undisturbed and burned holm oak, scots pine and pyrenean oak forests in central Spain</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biogeochemistry</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">á</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">fire</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">greenhouse flux á fire</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Greenhouse ﬂux</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pinus sylvestris</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus pyrenaica</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">quercus pyrenaica á pinus</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Soil temperature</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">soil temperature á</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Soil water content</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">soil water content á</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">sylvestris á</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.springerlink.com/index/10.1007/s10533-010-9520-8http://link.springer.com/10.1007/s10533-010-9520-8</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">107</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">19 - 41</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">We investigated N2O and CH4 ﬂuxes from soils of Quercus ilex, Quercus pyrenaica and Pinus sylvestris stands located in the surrounding area of Madrid (Spain). The ﬂuxes were measured for 18 months from both mature stands and post ﬁre stands using the static chamber technique. Simultaneously with gas ﬂuxes, soil temperature, soil water content, soil C and soil N were measured in the stands. Nitrous oxide ﬂuxes ranged from -11.43 to 8.34 lg N2O–N m -2 h -1 in Q.ilex, -7.74 to 13.52 lg N2O–N m -2 h -1 in Q. pyrenaica and -28.17 to 21.89 lg N2O–N m -2 h -1 in P. sylvestris. Fluxes of CH4 ranged from -8.12 to 4.11 lg CH4– C m -2 h -1 in Q.ilex, -7.74 to 3.0 lg CH4 –C m -2 h -1 in Q. pyrenaica and -24.46 to 6.07 lg CH4–C m -2 h -1 in P. sylvestris. Seasonal differences were detected; N2O ﬂuxes being higher in wet months whereas N2O ﬂuxes declined in dry months. Net consumption of N2O was related to low N availability, high soil C contents, high soil temperatures and low moisture content. Fire decreased N2O ﬂuxes in spring. N2O emissions were closely correlated with previous day’s rainfall and soil moisture. Our ecosystems generally were a sink for methane in the dry season and a source of CH4 during wet months. The available water in the soil inﬂuenced the observed seasonal trend. The burned sites showed higher CH4 oxidation rates in Q. ilex, and lower rates in P. sylvestris. Overall, the data suggest that ﬁre alters both N2O and CH4 ﬂuxes. However, the magnitude of such variation depends on the site, soil characteristics and seasonal climatic conditions.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1-3</style></issue></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%">Domínguez, MaríaT</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Marañón, Teodoro</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Murillo, JoséM</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Schulin, Rainer</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Robinson, BrettH</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nutritional Status of Mediterranean Trees Growing in a Contaminated and Remediated Area</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Water, Air, and Soil Pollution</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Heavy metal</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Olea europaea</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phosphorus</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Populus alba</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">soil remediation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tree nutrition</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11270-009-0075-z</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">205</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">305 - 321</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">t Soil contamination may contribute to forest decline, by altering nutrient cycling and acquisition by plants. This may hamper the establishment of a woody plant cover in contaminated areas, thus limiting the success of a restoration program. We studied the nutritional status of planted saplings of Holm oak (Quercus ilex subsp. ballota (Desf.) Samp.), white poplar (Populus alba L.), and wild olive tree (Olea europaea var. sylvestris Brot.) in the Guadiamar Green Corridor (SW Spain) and compared it with established adult trees. Soils in this area were affected by a mine-spill in 1998 and a subsequent restoration program. The spill resulted in soil acidification, due to pyrite oxidation, and deposited high concentrations of some trace elements. In some sites, we detected a phosphorus deficiency in the leaves of Q. ilex and O. europaea saplings, as indicated by a high N:P ratio (&gt;16). For O. europaea, soil contamination explained 40% of the variability in leaf P and was negatively related to chlorophyll content. Soil pH was a significant factor predicting the variability of several nutrients, including Mg, P, and S. The uptake of Mg and S by P. alba was greater in acidic soils. The monitoring of soil pH is recommended since long-term effects of soil acidification may negatively affect the nutritional status of the trees</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1-4</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Springer Netherlands</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%">Yassaa, N.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Custer, T.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Song, W.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pech, F.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kesselmeier, J.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Williams, J.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quantitative and enantioselective analysis of monoterpenes from plant chambers and in ambient air using SPME</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ATMOSPHERIC MEASUREMENT TECHNIQUES</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">GC/MS</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1615 - 1627</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) system has been developed for quantifying enantiomeric and nonenantiomeric monoterpenes in plant chamber studies and ambient air. Performance of this system was checked using a capillary diffusion system to produce monoterpene standards. The adsorption efficiency, competitive adsorption and chromatographic peak resolution of monoterpene enantiomer pairs were compared for three SPME fibre coatings: 75 mu m Carboxen-PDMS (CAR-PDMS), 50/30 mu m divinylbenzene-carboxen-polydimethylsiloxane (DVB-CAR-PDMS) and 65 mu m divinylbenzene-polydimethylsiloxane (DVB-PDMS). Key parameters such as the linearity and reproducibility of the SPME system have been investigated in this work. The best compromise between the enantiomeric separation of monoterpenes and competitive adsorption of the isoprenoids on the solid SPME fibre coating was found for DVB-PDMS fibres. The optimum conditions using DVB-PDMS fibres were applied to measure the exchange rates of monoterpenes in the emission of Quercus ilex using a laboratory whole plant enclosure under light and dark conditions, as well as in ambient air.

Large seedlings of Aleppo pine (Pinus halepensisMill.) and holm oak (Quercus ilex L.) with high N concentration (L+), and small seedlings with either high (S+) or low (S−) N concentration, were planted on two sites of different weed competition intensity that created contrasting stress conditions. Seedling survival, growth, gas exchange, N remobilization (NR) and uptake (NU), and water potential were assessed through the ﬁrst growing season. Weeds reduced survival and growth, but seedling response to weed competition varied among phenotypes and between species. At the end of the ﬁrst growing season, L+ Aleppo pine seedlings had higher survival than both small seedling types in presence of weeds but no differences were observed in absence of weeds. Mortality differences among phenotypes occurred in spring but not in summer. L+ Aleppo pines grew more than small Aleppo pines independently of weed competition. No holm oak seedling type survived in presence of weeds and no mortality differences among phenotypes where observed in absence of weeds, although L+ holm oak seedlings grew more than small seedlings. Mortality and growth differences in Aleppo pine were linked to marked physiological differences among phenotypes while physiological differences were small among holm oak phenotypes. L+ Aleppo pines had greater root growth, gas exchange, NR, and NU than small seedlings, irrespective of their N concentration. Seedling size in Aleppo pine had a greater role in the performance of transplanted seedlings than N concentration. The functional differences among oak phenotypes were small whereas they were large in pine seedlings, which led to smaller differences in transplanting performance in holm oak than in pine. This suggests that the nursery seedling quality improvement for planting in dry sites could depend on the species-speciﬁc phenotypic plasticity and functional strategy. Improved transplanting performance in large Aleppo pine seedlings relative to small seedlings was linked to greater gas exchange, root growth and N cycling.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue></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%">Gea-Izquierdo, G.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cañellas, I.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Analysis of holm oak intraspecific competition using Gamma regression</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest Science</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dehesa</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">diameter increment growth</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">generalized linear model</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/saf/fs/2009/00000055/00000004/art00003</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">55</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">310 - 322</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Analysis of plant competition is a major issue in ecology and forestry, as it influences plant growth and plant-environment interactions.

The proteins identified belong to the photosynthesis, carbohydrate and nitrogen metabolism, and stress-related protein functional categories.</style></abstract><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">18778874</style></accession-num></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%">Campelo, F.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nabais, C.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">García-González, I.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cherubini, P.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">GUTIÉRREZ, E.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Freitas, H.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dendrochronology of Quercus ilex L. and its potential use for climate reconstruction in the Mediterranean region</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Canadian Journal of Forest Research</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">climate reconstruction (PG)</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dendrochronology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">dendroclimatology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://dx.doi.org/10.1139/X09-163</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">39</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2486 - 2493</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holm oak (Quercus ilex L.) is a long-lived species widely distributed across the Mediterranean Basin, with potential value for dendrochronology and dendroclimatology.

One of the most vulnerable areas to climate change is the Mediterranean Basin which is expected to suffer important changes in temperature and precipitation in the next few decades, leading to a warmer and dryer climate. Therefore, it is necessary to determine species-speciﬁc responses to increased drought to predict possible future changes in the structure and composition of Mediterranean forests, as well as to identify appropriate management strategies to mitigate these effects. The main aim of this study has been to experimentally simulate the effects of a 15% reduction in annual rainfall on the survival and growth of two co-occurring Mediterranean oaks with contrasting leafhabit (the evergreen Quercus ilex spp. ilex and the winter-deciduous Quercus cerrioides) and, to assess whether traditional selective thinning carried out in these mixed oak coppices (i.e. selection of one to few stems per stump) can modify the consequences of rainfall reduction. Soil moisture decreased under the rainfall reduction level while it increased in the thinned plots. Reduced rainfall did not inﬂuence tree mortality, but did lead to species-speciﬁc effects on height growth: no changes were observed in Q. ilex while height growth rate of Q. cerrioides decreased (c.a. 20%). Selective thinning improved tree growth (c.a. 50%) in stands both under natural and, and to a lesser extent, under reduced rainfall conditions. Nevertheless, the positive effects of thinning rapidly declined during our three years experiment, probably because the vigorous resprouting of thinned stumps. Our results show that the forecasted reduction in annual rainfall for the Western Mediterranean Basin can constrain the growth of some deciduous oaks in mixed oak coppices. Traditional selective thinning can increase soil moisture and encourage tree growth, thus partially mitigating this effect. However, the transient results observed in this experiment suggest the need to reconsider the intensity and the frequency of this traditional management practice in light of new climatic scenarios</style></abstract></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%">Cotillas, Miriam</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sabaté, Santi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gracia, Carlos</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Espelta, Josep Mª</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Growth response of mixed mediterranean oak coppices to rainfall reduction</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest Ecology and Management</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">climate change</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Drought</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest management</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus cerrioides</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">resprouting</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0378112709005027</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">258</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1677 - 1683</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Climate change is one of the major challenges for ecosystem conservation.

However, the transient results observed in this experiment suggest the need to reconsider the intensity and the frequency of this traditional management practice in light of new climatic scenarios</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7</style></issue></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%">Capitani, Donatella</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Brilli, Federico</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mannina, Luisa</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proietti, Noemi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Loreto, Francesco</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">In Situ Investigation of Leaf Water Status by Portable Unilateral Nuclear Magnetic Resonance</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PLANT PHYSIOLOGY</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Drought stress</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean vegetation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">natural vegetation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">nuclear magnetic resonance</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AMER SOC PLANT BIOLOGISTS</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">15501 MONONA DRIVE, ROCKVILLE, MD 20855 USA</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">149</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1638-1647</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A portable unilateral nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) instrument was used to detect in field conditions the water status of leaves of herbaceous crops (Zea mays, Phaseolus vulgaris), mesophyllous trees (Populus nigra), and natural Mediterranean vegetation characterized by water-spending shrubs (Cistus incanus) and water-saving sclerophyllous trees (Quercus ilex).

The response of a Quercus ilex forest in southern France to such a decline in water availability was studied using a 4-year throughfall exclusion experiment. Seasonal courses of sap flow and leaf water potential were obtained from 2004 to 2007 and used to characterize tree water relations in a control and a dry treatment. The experiment reduced the average precipitation input to the soil by 29%, and resulted in a 23% reduction in annual transpiration. Soil water potential was significantly lower in the dry treatment only during summer drought, but transpiration was reduced all year round even during well-watered periods. Despite a tight stomatal control over transpiration, whole-tree hydraulic conductance was found to be lower in the trees growing in the driest conditions. This reduction in water transport capacity was observed jointly with a reduction in leaf transpiring area. Canopy leaf area decreased by 18% in the dry treatment as a consequence of the throughfall exclusion, which was found to validate the ecohydrological equilibrium theory.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>3</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">EZQUERRA BOTICARIO, F J</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Los sistemas de dehesa en la península ibérica: reflexiones acerca de su génesis, historia, dinámica y gestión</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">V Congreso Forestal Español</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">bellota</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">encina</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ganadería</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">regeneración</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009</style></year></dates><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Avila</style></pub-location><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1-14</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Los encinares adehesados tan abundantes en el cuadrante suroccidental de la península ibérica constituyen uno de sus paisajes más característicos y poseen un destacado valor socioeconómico cuya explotación está ligada a razas autóctonas de gran valor, desde la vaca retinta al cerdo ibérico. Su valor cultural y ecológico ha sido realzado durante décadas, llegándose a idealizar los ecosistemas adehesados por la complejidad y la biodiversidad que albergan. En realidad, la ecología de las dehesas puede bosquejarse si analizamos su evolución desde una perspectiva histórica. En este trabajo se plantean hipótesis acerca de los procesos que dieron lugar desde hace milenios a la génesis de los sistemas adehesados en España, efectuando un seguimiento histórico de los mismos y de las transformaciones sufridas durante los últimos siglos.

Su valor cultural y ecológico ha sido realzado durante décadas, llegándose a idealizar los ecosistemas adehesados por la complejidad y la biodiversidad que albergan. En realidad, la ecología de las dehesas puede bosquejarse si analizamos su evolución desde una perspectiva histórica. En este trabajo se plantean hipótesis acerca de los procesos que dieron lugar desde hace milenios a la génesis de los sistemas adehesados en España, efectuando un seguimiento histórico de los mismos y de las transformaciones sufridas durante los últimos siglos.

However, the distribution of long tree-ring records around the world is very limited. Alternatively, the original climate signal of wood δ 13 C is well preserved in fossil charcoal and, accordingly, charcoal δ 13 C can be used to quantify past changes in water availability (e.g. precipitation). We report a case study on spatial palaeoclimate reconstruction which aims to characterize the transition between Bronze and Iron Ages, the so-called Iron Age Cold Epoch (ca. 900– 300 BCE), using charcoals of Quercus ilex/coccifera from a set of 11 contemporary archaeological sites of eastern Spain. Climatic inferences were obtained after calibrating a linear model predicting seasonal precipitation from δ 13 C of Q. ilex wood samples obtained across a rainfall gradient. The best regression model corresponded to September–December (autumn) precipitation (Paut ), in agreement with the fact that Q. ilex is able to exploit previous-year water reserves thanks to very effective water uptake. Subsequently, we estimated Paut from the δ 13 C of fossil charcoal to infer spatial patterns in water availability. Overall, estimated past Paut was about 19% higher (296 mm) than present-time values averaged across archaeological sites (249 mm). However, a clear geographic pattern of differences in precipitation could be observed in which the inner continental regions of eastern Spain were characterized by more humid conditions in the past, whereas the coastal strip of the Mediterranean Sea barely differed in past and present Paut values. The quite uniform distribution of archaeological sites over eastern Spain allowed development of contour maps of absolute and relative (to present) past Paut using gridded interpolation methods implemented in a GIS, highlighting the potential of this approach for reconstructing high-resolution spatial patterns of past climate</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Elsevier B.V.</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%">Jacquet, Karine</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Prodon, Roger</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Measuring the postfire resilience of a bird-vegetation system: a 28-year study in a Mediterranean oak woodland.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Oecologia</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Avifauna</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">long-term</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Restoration</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">succession</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Wildfire</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">161</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">801-811</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Despite numerous studies on the response of Mediterranean ecosystems to fire, few have measured the respective resilience of vegetation and fauna compartments. For 28 years, we conducted an annual monitoring of avifauna composition and vegetation structure (cover profile)following a severe wildfire in a holm oak (Quercus ilex) stand in southern France. Our aim was to estimate the time necessary for this bird-vegetation system to return to a state analogous to its pre-fire state. In the burned plots, low herbaceous and shrub layers were gradually replaced by higher, woody layers of vegetation. Neither bird species richness nor inter-annual bird species turnover showed significant differences from one year to the next over the study period. In contrast, bird species composition did change steadily, leading to an almost complete replacement of early-successional species by late-successional ones. Using the first axes of multivariate analyses as 'proxy variables' of vegetation or avifauna recoveries, we estimated by extrapolation the recovery times of these two ecosystem components at ca. 50 and 35 years, respectively. Towards the end of the study period, the rate of change in avifauna composition decreased comparatively to that of vegetation structure. Our results show that holm oak woodlands are highly resilient and seem to tolerate an approximately 50-year fire interval, even if it remains to be assessed how resilient they would be in the case of increased fire frequency. More generally, our multivariate approach, which allows comparative estimations of resilience in different components of an ecosystem using qualitative as wellas quantitative criteria, could be applied to various case studies in disturbance and restoration ecology.</style></abstract><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">19727831</style></accession-num></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%">Pereira, F L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gash, J H C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">David, J S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">David, T S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Monteiro, P R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Valente, F</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Modelling interception loss from evergreen oak Mediterranean savannas: Application of a tree-based modelling approach</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Agricultural and Forest Meteorology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gash analytical model</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Isolated trees</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">rainfall interception</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Savannas</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Wet bulb temperature</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">149</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">680-688</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">In a previous study, it was shown that an isolated, fully saturated tree-crown behaves like a wet bulb, allowing evaporation of intercepted rainfall to be estimated by a simple diffusion equation for water vapour.

The strategy chosen will determine a population’s ability to respond to climate change. To explore this, we grew Quercus ilex (L.) seedlings from acorns collected at six selected populations from climatically contrasting localities and evaluated their response to drought and late season cold events. Maximum photosynthetic rate (Amax), instantaneous water use efficiency (iWUE), and thermal tolerance to freeze and heat (estimated from chlorophyll fluorescence versus temperature curves) were measured in 5-month-old seedlings in control (no stress), drought (water-stressed), and cold (low suboptimal temperature) conditions. The observed responses were similar for the six populations: drought decreased Amax and increased iWUE, and cold reduced Amax and iWUE. All the seedlings maintained photosynthetic activity under adverse conditions (drought and cold), and rapidly increased their iWUE by closing stomata when exposed to drought. Heat and freeze tolerances were similarly high for seedlings from all the populations, and they were significantly increased by drought and cold, respectively; and were positively related to each other. Differences in seedling performance across populations were primarily induced by maternal effects mediated by seed size and to a lesser extent by idiosyncratic physiologic responses to drought and low temperatures. Tolerance to multiple stresses together with the capacity to physiologically acclimate to heat waves and cold snaps may allow Q. ilex to cope with the increasingly stressful conditions imposed by climate change. Lack of evidence of physiologic seedling adaptation to local climate may reflect opposing selection pressures to complex, multidimensional environmental conditions operating within the distribution range of this species.</style></abstract><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">19203935</style></accession-num><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/treephys/tpn007</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/treephys/tpn007</style></research-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%">Espelta, Josep M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bonal, Raul</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sánchez-Humanes, Belén</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pre-dispersal acorn predation in mixed oak forests: interspecific differences are driven by the interplay among seed phenology, seed size and predator size</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Ecology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Curculio elephas</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Curculio glandium</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean oak forests</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">multi-host–predator system</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus humilis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">seed ecology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">seed satiation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">species coexistence</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Blackwell Publishing Ltd</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">97</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1416-1423</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1. Pre-dispersal seed predation (PSP) often occurs in multi-host–predator systems (e.g. several plant species exposed to a common array of granivorous insects). However, whether the interaction among seed phenology, seed size and predator size accounts for interspecific differences in PSP remains elusive. 2. We studied PSP in a mixed-oak forest with two oaks (the larger-seeded Quercus humilis and the smaller-seeded Q. ilex), both depredated by two acorn weevils (the smaller Curculio glandium and the larger C. elephas). We intensively monitored acorn production and infestation phenology and we identified the weevil species depredating acorns by means of DNA taxonomy. 3. The minimum acorn size required for infestation was lower for C. glandium than for C. elephas, in accordance with their different body sizes. This resulted in an earlier infestation phenology in C. glandium and the ability of this species to infest both smaller and larger acorns. Above a minimum acorn size threshold, no selection for larger acorns by weevils was observed. 4. Initial acorn crop size was similar in the two oaks. Nonetheless, the earlier acorn phenology and the production of larger acorns in Q. humilis favoured the earlier infestation by C. glandium and the predation by both small and large weevils. Smaller acorns of Q. ilex almost excluded infestation by the larger C. elephas. 5. Although larger acorns of Q. humilis could better survive infestation (preserve the embryo), higher PSP in this species finally resulted in a lower mature acorn crop size than in Q. ilex. 6. Synthesis. In a multi-host–predator system, smaller-seeded species may benefit from a reduced PSP because they exclude larger granivorous insects, but also by means of a ‘free-rider effect’, if larger-seeded heterospecifics earlier reach a critical size to be depredated. These results also highlight the benefits of a small body size in granivorous insects to depredate seeds earlier and to forage on a wider range of seed sizes. Whether the advantage of ‘being small’ in this antagonistic plant–animal interaction is offset by other processes, or whether it results in a pressure towards seed and insect size reduction, deserves further attention.</style></abstract></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%">ESPELTA, JOSEP M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bonal, Raul</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sánchez-Humanes, Belén</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pre-dispersal acorn predation in mixed oak forests: interspecific differences are driven by the interplay among seed phenology, seed size and predator size</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Ecology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Curculio elephas</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Curculio glandium</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean oak forests</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">multi-host–predator system</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus humilis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">seed ecology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">seed satiation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">species coexistence</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2745.2009.01564.x</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">97</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1416 - 1423</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.

In a multi-host–predator system, smaller-seeded species may benefit from a reduced PSP because they exclude larger granivorous insects, but also by means of a ‘free-rider effect’, if larger-seeded heterospecifics earlier reach a critical size to be depredated. These results also highlight the benefits of a small body size in granivorous insects to depredate seeds earlier and to forage on a wider range of seed sizes. Whether the advantage of ‘being small’ in this antagonistic plant–animal interaction is offset by other processes, or whether it results in a pressure towards seed and insect size reduction, deserves further attention.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd</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%">Karioti, Anastasia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bilia, Anna Rita</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gabbiani, Chiara</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Messori, Luigi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Skaltsa, Helen</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proanthocyanidin glycosides from the leaves of Quercus ilex L.

Los modelos climáticos proyectan para esta área un descenso en la precipitación que, unido a un aumento de las temperaturas, acrecentará la ya de por sí característica sequía estacional que caracteriza esta zona. Dadas estas proyecciones, se hace necesario determinar los efectos que tendría una reducción de la precipitación en las diferentes especies que componen nuestros bosques, para poder así estimar posibles cambios en la estructura y composición de los mismos e identificar estrategias de gestión adecuadas para mitigar su efecto. En este contexto, el objetivo de nuestro estudio es analizar los efectos de una reducción de la precipitación en el monte bajo de encina (Quercus ilex L.) y roble (Quercus cerrioides Willk &amp; Costa), así como evaluar los efectos de la gestión (resalveo) en su respuesta a este. Para ello, se combinan en un bosque mixto dos niveles de precipitación (precipitación natural vs. reducción de la precipitación de un 15%) y gestión (no gestión vs. gestión) en cuatro tratamientos. Se analiza la mortalidad, crecimiento, nueva rebrotada y dinámica foliar. Tras cuatro años de seguimiento el experimento sigue en curso, y hasta ahora se han obtenido los resultados definitivos de mortalidad, crecimiento y nueva rebrotada, que muestran que: i) La gestión reduce fuertemente la mortalidad, ii) El crecimiento de los robles se ve notablemente afectado por la reducción de precipitación, mientras que el de las encinas permanece constante, iii) La gestión incrementa fuertemente el crecimiento en ambas especies, especialmente en condiciones de precipitación natural. Actualmente se están comenzando a analizar los datos de dinámica foliar, y los resultados preliminares muestran que iv) Las parcelas sometidas a reducción de precipitación presentan un número menor de hojas, una menor longevidad de las mismas, y una mayor tasa de caída de hojarasca que las no sometidas a este tratamiento, v) La gestión atenúa la caída de hojas en todas las parcelas, mitigando los efectos de la reducción de precipitación en las parcelas sometidas a este tratamiento. De estos resultados se extrae la conclusión de que el cambio climático puede tener consecuencias negativas sobre los bosques de Quercus mediterráneos, siendo más acusados los efectos en robles caducifolios. Sin embargo, la gestión forestal puede ser una potente herramienta para mitigar estos efectos y conservar nuestros bosques de cara al futuro.</style></abstract></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%">Cubera, Elena</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Moreno, Gerardo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Solla, Alejandro</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex root growth in response to heterogeneous conditions of soil bulk density and soil NH4-N content</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Soil and Tillage Research</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Oak decline</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Root density</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Root depth</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Soil bulk density</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Soil NH4 content</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0167198708001724</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">103</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">16 - 22</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A greenhouse study examined the effects of heterogeneous conditions of soil bulk density and soil NH4-N content on the growth of holm oak (Quercus ilex L.) seedlings over an 8-month period.

Location The peri-Adriatic region, encompassing the Italian peninsula, Sicily and the western and southern Balkans between latitudes 46° and 37° N. Methods New high-resolution pollen and microscopic charcoal data from Lago dell’Accesa (Tuscany, Italy) were used to estimate the response of the evergreen oak, Quercus ilex L., to fire during its expansion phase at 8500 cal. yr bp. The data were compared with the pollen and charcoal series from other Mediterranean sites (Lago di Massaciuccoli in Tuscany, Malo Jezero in Croatia, Biviere di Gela in Sicily) and analysed using numerical techniques (redundancy analysis, detrended canonical correspondence analysis) to identify long-term fire–vegetation linkages and the degree of compositional change. Results Microscopic charcoal and pollen of evergreen oaks were negatively correlated during the period of quasi-natural fire regime (Mesolithic, 10,000–8000 cal. yr bp). In addition, there was no such positive correlation during periods when the fire regime was potentially more influenced by people (Neolithic–Bronze Age, 8000–3000 cal. yr bp). Compared with inland sites, coastal sites that are currently located at a distinct ecotone showed more compositional change. Main conclusions The analyses suggest that climatic change, without an additional effect of fire regimes, favoured the expansion and compositional change of evergreen forests across the peri-Adriatic region. Strikingly different patterns occurred along a north–south gradient. In the north (Tuscany and Croatia, meso-Mediterranean belt), Q. ilex replaced deciduous forests when conditions became drier; in the south (Sicily, thermo-Mediterranean belt) the species replaced maquis or steppe vegetation when climatic conditions became moister. We conclude that the projected increase in fire activity may lead to the loss of most of the remaining relict forests of Q. ilex in southern Europe.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd</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%">Colombaroli, Daniele</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tinner, Willy</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">van Leeuwen, Jacqueline</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Noti, Roland</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vescovi, Elisa</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vannière, Boris</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Magny, Michel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Schmidt, Roland</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bugmann, Harald</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Response of broadleaved evergreen Mediterranean forest vegetation to fire disturbance during the Holocene: insights from the peri-Adriatic region</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Biogeography</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Compositional change</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">cross-correlations</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fire history</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean vegetation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">microscopic charcoal analysis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pollen analysis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">redundancy analysis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">species diversity</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Blackwell Publishing Ltd</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">36</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">314-326</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Aim To test whether fire contributed to the expansion and compositional change of evergreen forests in the Mediterranean region during the Holocene.

This threatened ecosystem is of very high ecological and economical importance. Quercus sp. fruits (acorns) are essential for wildlife, and for pig fattening in «dehesas». In the first part of this review we briefly describe the phenology of the holm oak and the factors affecting acorn morphology and chemical composition. In the second half we analyze the main known factors reported in the literature that determine acorn production: pruning, stand characteristics, and site (weather and soil). We make several suggestions to improve future research and detect the existing gaps in the undertanding of acorn production. Fruit production is highly variable, both between and within years and individuals. The mean production in «dehesas» (mean density circa 50 trees/ha) is around 250-600 kg/ha (≈100 g/canopy-m2 , CV&gt; 100%). Acorn morphology is also very variable, with mean sound acorn size around 3.5 × 1.6 cm, CV ≈ 10% (3.5 g/acorn, CV &gt; 50%). Silviculture plays an essential role in acorn production. Acorn production per tree seems to be negatively related to density. The effect of pruning is less clear: production seems to be reduced in the first and second years after pruning. After the third year it is not possible to discern from the literature whether there is any response to pruning or not. Weather and soil (site) also impact production and their effects should be explored in future management. The influence of genetics is unknown and should also be addressed. Longer data series are necessary. The dasometric features of the stands need to be characterized, in order to better understand production and compare results from different locations. Much research is still required to understand the functioning of fruiting in these woodlands.</style></abstract></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%">Gea-Izquierdo, G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cañellas, I</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Montero, G</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Acorn production in Spanish holm oak woodlands</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest Systems</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">acorn</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">agrosilvopastoral systems</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dehesa</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">fruit production</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holm oak</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">15</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">339-354</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">We present a review on the state-of-the-art of fruit prodution in Western Iberia woodlands («dehesas»), and particularly in Q. ilex (holm oak) «dehesas».

The mean production in «dehesas» (mean density circa 50 trees/ha) is around 250-600 kg/ha (≈100 g/canopy-m2 , CV&gt; 100%). Acorn morphology is also very variable, with mean sound acorn size around 3.5 × 1.6 cm, CV ≈ 10% (3.5 g/acorn, CV &gt; 50%). Silviculture plays an essential role in acorn production. Acorn production per tree seems to be negatively related to density. The effect of pruning is less clear: production seems to be reduced in the first and second years after pruning. After the third year it is not possible to discern from the literature whether there is any response to pruning or not. Weather and soil (site) also impact production and their effects should be explored in future management. The influence of genetics is unknown and should also be addressed. Longer data series are necessary. The dasometric features of the stands need to be characterized, in order to better understand production and compare results from different locations. Much research is still required to understand the functioning of fruiting in these woodlands.</style></abstract></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%">Gaucherel, C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Guiot, J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Misson, L</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Changes of the potential distribution area of French Mediterranean forests under global warming</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biogeosciences</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">climate modeling (voyant)</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">CO2</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pinus halepensis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">tree growth</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1493-1504</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">This work aims at understanding future spatial and temporal distributions of tree species in the Mediterranean region of France under various climates. We focused on two different species (Pinus Halepensis and Quercus Ilex) and compared their growth under the IPCC-B2 climate scenario in order to quantify signiﬁcant changes between present and future. The inﬂuence of environmental factors such as atmospheric CO2 increase and topography on the tree growth has also been quantiﬁed. We modeled species growth with the help of a processbased model (MAIDEN), previously calibrated over measured ecophysiological and dendrochronological series with a Bayesian scheme. The model was fed with the ARPEGE – MeteoFrance climate model, combined with an explicit increase in CO2 atmospheric concentration. The main output of the model gives the carbon allocation in boles and thus tree production. Our results show that the MAIDEN model is correctly able to simulate pine and oak production in space and time, after detailed calibration and validation stages. Yet, these simulations, mainly based on climate, are indicative and not predictive. The comparison of simulated growth at end of 20th and 21st centuries, show a shift of the pine production optimum from about 650 to 950 m due to 2.5 K temperature increase, while no optimum has been found for oak. With the direct effect of CO2 increase taken into account, both species show a signiﬁcant increase in productivity (+26 and +43% for pine and oak respectively) at the end of the 21st century. While both species have different growth mechanisms, they have a good chance to extend their spatial distribution and their elevation in the Alps during the 21st century under the IPCC-B2 climate scenario. This extension is mainly due to the CO2 fertilization effect.</style></abstract></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%">Gaucherel, C.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Guiot, J.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Misson, L.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Changes of the potential distribution area of French Mediterranean forests under global warming</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biogeosciences</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">climate modeling (voyant)</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">CO2</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pinus halepensis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">tree growth</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.biogeosciences.net/5/1493/2008/http://www.biogeosciences.net/5/1493/2008/bg-5-1493-2008.pdf</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1493 - 1504</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">This work aims at understanding future spatial and temporal distributions of tree species in the Mediterranean region of France under various climates.

We combined series of microscopic charcoal, macroscopic charcoal and pollen to address the response of vegetation to fire at different spatial scales. Before 7900 cal. yr BP, broadleaved evergreen forests of Quercus ilex were the most important vegetational type in the area of Lago dell'Accesa. The subsequent decline of Q. ilex occurred when human-induced fires increased at the Mesolithic/Neolithic transition (c. 8000 cal. yr BP). Cross-correlation analyses show that fire was a key factor for vegetational change. Higher fire incidence affected the forest composition, converting evergreen forests to high-diversity open, partly deciduous forests and shrubby communities. The correlation is more pronounced at a local scale (macroscopic charcoal), whereas at a regional scale (microscopic charcoal) the vegetation followed the fire intervals with a more marked time lag (10-100 years). Climatic change, such as wetter periods inferred from lake levels, may have directly influenced the vegetational change, exacerbating the effect of human impact. Our study suggests that the disruption of evergreen broadleaved forests occurred when mean fire interval reached values as high as those of today's highly disturbed Mediterranean ecosystems. Hence broadleaved evergreen forests may not be as fire-resilient as assumed according to modern ecological paradigms. In view of the projected increase in fire frequency as a consequence of global warming, the present relict forests of Quercus ilex will be strongly affected.</style></abstract></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%">Colombaroli, Daniele</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vannière, Boris</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Emmanuel, Chapron</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Magny, Michel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tinner, Willy</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fire-vegetation interactions during the Mesolithic-Neolithic transition at Lago dell'Accesa, Tuscany, Italy</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">HOLOCENE</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">climate change</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fire ecology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fire history</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holocene</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Italy</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">macroscopic charcoal</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean vegetation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">mesolithic</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">microscopic charcoal</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Neolithic</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">tuscany</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">18</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">679 - 692</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A new core from the centre of Lago dell'Accesa (Tuscany, Italy) was sampled for pollen and charcoal analyses to provide a high-resolution sequence from 8400 to 7000 cal. yr BP.

In view of the projected increase in fire frequency as a consequence of global warming, the present relict forests of Quercus ilex will be strongly affected.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;pub-location: 1 OLIVERS YARD, 55 CITY ROAD, LONDON EC1Y 1SP, ENGLAND&lt;br/&gt;publisher: SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD</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%">Abreu, M M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Matias, M J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Magalhães, M Clara F</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Basto, M J</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Impacts on water, soil and plants from the abandoned Miguel Vacas copper mine, Portugal</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Geochemical Exploration</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">carbonates copper mine</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nickel</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phosphates</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">prunus domestica</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">soil copper contamination</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">96</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">161-170</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Soil, water and plant geochemistry was studied around the Miguel Vacas copper mine (Alentejo, SE Portugal), which stopped its exploitation and processing activities in 1991.

We monitored the temperatures and time elapsed to reach the smoke, pyrolysis and flame phases. Smoke appeared much earlier (37 versus 101 s) and at lower temperatures (96 versus 139 °C) in Quercus ilex than in Pinus halepensis. Quercus ilex reached pyrolysis earlier than Pinus halepensis (278 versus 338 s) but at the same temperature (365–371 °C). There were no significant differences in time elapsed nor in temperature for flammability (386–422 s; 505–487 °C in both species). Quercus ilex had lower water hydration than Pinus halepensis (41 versus 100%) and the leaf content of terpenes in Quercus was three orders of magnitude lower. The results of this study show no differences in the flame phase between the two species and the absence of a significant relationship between temperature and elapsed time of the different flammability phases in relation to monoterpene content; thus indicating that the role of monoterpenes in flammability phases is smaller than that of the water content.

Moreover, in order to verify the changes in atmospheric pollution in the historical centre of the city after the introduction of the limited trafﬁc zone (LTZ), previous data collected in the years 1979 and 1996 were also considered. The leaf’s internal concentration of Al, Fe, Cu, Zn, and Pb was 28, 22, 40, 77 and 37%, respectively, of the total concentration, and it was in the same range monitored in the years 1979 and 1996. The results underlined a signiﬁcant (p &lt; 0.05) decreasing of metal concentration on unwashed leaves with on an average 92%, compared to ones monitored in the year 1979. The mean value of the total trafﬁc ﬂow during the limitated period (Monday to Friday, from 6:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m, and Saturday from 2:00 to 6:00 p.m.) was 75.000 vehicles, compared to 90.000 ones before the electronic gates were activated; moreover, a 15% decrease in the daily trafﬁc peak (8:30–9:30 a.m) was monitored. The metal concentration in Q. ilex leaves was be related to motor vehicle emissions, conﬁrmed also by PCA. The data obtained on the leaf metal concentration trend in Rome, over a period of 27 years, underlined the importance of the City Council provisions. These results conﬁrmed the use of Q. ilex for long-term monitoring of metal concentration in those urban areas where the species was naturally present, and widely distributed in the landscape.</style></abstract></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%">Espelta, Josep Maria</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cortés, Pilar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Molowny-Horas, Roberto</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sánchez-Humanes, Belén</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Retana, Javier</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Masting mediated by summer drought reduces acorn predation in mediterranean oak forests</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ECOLOGY</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Curculio spp.</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">fruit abortion</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">fruiting synchrony</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean mixed-oak forests</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">oaks</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">predator satiation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus humilis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">resource matching</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ECOLOGICAL SOC AMER</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1990 M STREET NW, STE 700, WASHINGTON, DC 20036 USA</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">89</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">805-817</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Temporally variable production of seed crops by perennial plants (masting) has been hypothesized to be a valuable mechanism in the reduction of seed predation by satiating and starving seed consumers. To achieve these benefits, coexisting species subjected to the same predator would benefit from a similar pattern of seeding fluctuation over time that could lead to a reduction in predation at the within-species level. We tested for the existence of an environmental factor enforcing synchrony in acorn production in two sympatric Mediterranean oaks ( Quercus ilex and Q. humilis) and the consequences on within-species and between species acorn predation, by monitoring 15 mixed forests (450 trees) over seven years. Acorn production in Q. ilex and Q. humilis was highly variable among years, with high population variability (CVp) values. The two species exhibited a very different pattern across years in their initial acorn crop size ( sum of aborted, depredated, and sound acorns). Nevertheless, interannual differences in summer water stress modified the likelihood of abortion during acorn ripening and enforced within-and, particularly, between-species synchrony and population variability in acorn production. The increase in CVp from initial to mature acorn crop ( after summer) accounted for 33% in Q. ilex, 59% in Q. humilis, and 60% in the two species together. Mean yearly acorn pre-dispersal predation by invertebrates was considerably higher in Q. humilis than in Q. ilex. Satiation and starvation of predators was recorded for the two oaks, and this effect was increased by the year-to-year variability in the size of the acorn crop of the two species combined. Moreover, at a longer time scale ( over seven years), we observed a significant reduction in the mean proportion of acorns depredated for each oak and the variability in both species' acorn production combined. Therefore, our results demonstrate that similar patterns of seeding fluctuation over time in coexisting species mediated by an environmental cue ( summer drought) may contribute to the reduction of the impact of seed predation at a within-species level. Future research should be aimed at addressing whether this process could be a factor assisting in the coexistence of Q. ilex and Q. humilis.</style></abstract></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%">Espelta, Josep Maria</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cortés, Pilar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Molowny-Horas, Roberto</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sánchez-Humanes, Belén</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Retana, Javier</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Masting mediated by summer drought reduces acorn predation in mediterranean oak forests</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ECOLOGY</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Curculio spp.</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">fruit abortion</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">fruiting synchrony</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean mixed-oak forests</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">oaks</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">predator satiation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus humilis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">resource matching</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">89</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">805 - 817</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Temporally variable production of seed crops by perennial plants (masting) has been hypothesized to be a valuable mechanism in the reduction of seed predation by satiating and starving seed consumers.

A throughfall exclusion experiment has been established in a Quercus ilex coppice in southern France to anticipate the response of this ecosystem to a reduced precipitation amount by removing part of the throughfall. The experiment involved four 140 m 2 plots: a control plot, a throughfall exclusion plot, a thinned plot and a throughfall exclusion in a thinned plot. This experiment has been used during nearly two years to monitor throughfall amounts in the different plots. Additionally, stemﬂow has been recorded on 20 trees between 25 April 2006 and 15 May 2007. The control plot had a stem density of 6885 stems ha 1 and a leaf area index of 3.1, rainfall partitioning into interception loss, throughfall and stemﬂow was, respectively, 30.9%, 56.6% and 12.5% of the total precipitation (1605 mm over the study period). Thinning reduced the stem basal area by 33% and the total interception loss by 34.6%. Given the rainfall partitioning, the throughfall exclusion was found to remove 19% of total precipitation, which was conﬁrmed by soil water content measurements. The revised Gash analytical model predicted interception with an agreement of 6.2% of total precipitation. Results show a good transferability of the model to a plot with a different stem density, thus supporting the idea that model parameters and evaporation from a wet canopy scale linearly with canopy cover.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1-2</style></issue></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%">Juárez-López, Francisco José</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Escudero, Alfonso</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediavilla, Sonia</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ontogenetic changes in stomatal and biochemical limitations to photosynthesis of two co-occurring Mediterranean oaks differing in leaf life span</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tree Physiology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A–ci response curves</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">biochemical capacity</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaf morphology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaf N allocation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">mature trees</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus faginea</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">seedlings</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stomatal conductance</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">28</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">367-374</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A quantitative analysis was applied to the stomatal and biochemical limitations to light-saturated net photosynthesis under optimal field conditions in mature trees and seedlings of the co-occurring evergreen oak, Quercus ilex L., and the deciduous oak, Q. faginea Lam. Stomatal limitation to photosynthesis, maximal Rubisco activity and electron transport rate were determined from assimilation versus intercellular leaf carbon dioxide concentration response curves of leaves that were subsequently analyzed for nitrogen (N) concentration, mass per unit area, thickness and percent internal air space. In both species, seedlings had a lower leaf mass per unit area, thickness and leaf N concentration than mature trees. The root system of seedlings during their third year after planting was dominated by a taproot. A lower leaf N concentration of seedlings was associated with lower maximal Rubisco activity and electron transport rate and with assimilation rates similar to or lower than those of mature trees, despite the higher stomatal conductances and potential photosynthetic nitrogen-use efficiencies of seedlings. Consequently, stomatal limitation to photosynthesis increased with tree age in both species. In both seedlings and mature trees, a lower assimilation rate in Q. ilex than in Q. faginea was associated with lower stomatal conductance, N allocation to photosynthetic functions, maximal Rubisco activity and electron transport rate, and potential photosynthetic nitrogen-use efficiency but greater leaf thickness and leaf mass per unit area. Tree-age-related changes differed quantitatively between species, and the characteristics of the two species were more similar in seedlings than in mature trees. Despite higher stomatal conductances, seedlings are more N limited than adult trees, which contributes to lower biochemical efficiency.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/treephys/28.3.367</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/treephys/28.3.367</style></research-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%">Jimenez, J.

On the other hand the feeding of eriophyoid mites on leaf surfaces can cause hyperplasia of leaf trichomes (erinea formation). In many cases the hyperplasia is accompanied by the accumulation of pigments within trichome cells, causing an impressive red-brown colouration of the eri- neum. There is no information, however, on the structure of these pigments as well as on the chemical alterations in the phenolic content of plant trichomes in response to mite attack. Erinea formation on the abaxial surface of Quercus ilex leaves upon Aceria ilicis (Acari: Eriophyoidea) attack provides an excel- lent model on this topic. Differences in the structure and chemical composition of isolated trichomes derived either from healthy (normal trichomes) or mite attacked (hypertrophic trichomes) leaves were examined. Carbon investment was comparable between the two different trichome types, but the cell walls of the hypertrophic trichomes appeared thinner and did not contain microcrystalline cellulose. Observations under the fluorescence microscope showed that the emitted fluorescence was different between the two trichome types, indicating a different composition in fluorescencing phenolic com- pounds. The chemical analyses confirmed that hypertrophic trichomes contained higher concentrations of the feeding deterrents proanthocyanidin B3 and catechin, as well as of quercetin-3-O-glucoside, but lower concentrations of acylated flavonoid glycosides, than the normal ones. The results showed that the structural and functional changes in leaf trichomes upon mite attack may be an effort of the leaf to compensate the damage caused by the pest</style></abstract></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%">Jardine, K</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Harley, P</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Karl, T</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Guenther, A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lerdau, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mak, J E</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant physiological and environmental controls over the exchange of acetaldehyde between forest canopies and the atmosphere</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">BIOGEOSCIENCES</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">acetaldehydes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">emission</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Populus deltoides</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">stomatal resistance</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">COPERNICUS GESELLSCHAFT MBH</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">BAHNHOFSALLEE 1E, GOTTINGEN, 37081, GERMANY</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1559-1572</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">We quantified fine scale sources and sinks of gas phase acetaldehyde in two forested ecosystems in the US. During the daytime, the upper canopy behaved as a net source while at lower heights, reduced emission rates or net uptake were observed. At night, uptake generally predominated throughout the canopies. Net ecosystem emission rates were inversely related to foliar density due to the extinction of light in the canopy and a respective decrease of the acetaldehyde compensation point. This is supported by branch level studies revealing much higher compensation points in the light than in the dark for poplar (Populus deltoides) and holly oak (Quercus ilex) implying a higher light/temperature sensitivity for acetaldehyde production relative to consumption. The view of stomata as the major pathway for acetaldehyde exchange is supported by strong linear correlations between branch transpiration rates and acetaldehyde exchange velocities for both species. In addition, natural abundance carbon isotope analysis of gas-phase acetaldehyde during poplar branch fumigation experiments revealed a significant kinetic isotope effect of 5.1 +/- 0.3 parts per thousand associated with the uptake of acetaldehyde. Similar experiments with dry dead poplar leaves showed no fractionation or uptake of acetaldehyde, confirming that this is only a property of living leaves. We suggest that acetaldehyde belongs to a potentially large list of plant metabolites where stomatal resistance can exert long term control over both emission and uptake rates due to the presence of both source(s) and sink(s) within the leaf which strongly buffer large changes in concentrations in the substomatal airspace due to changes in stomatal resistance. We conclude that the exchange of acetaldehyde between plant canopies and the atmosphere is fundamentally controlled by ambient acetaldehyde concentrations, stomatal resistance, and the compensation point which is a function of light/temperature.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></research-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%">Ramírez, José Alberto</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Díaz, Mario</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The role of temporal shrub encroachment for the maintenance of Spanish holm oak Quercus ilex dehesas</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest Ecology and Management</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dehesa</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Regeneration</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">rotational set-aside</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shrub cover</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sustainability</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0378112707009590</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">255</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1976 - 1983</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dehesas are man-made systems composed by evergreen oaks (Quercus ilex and Quercus suber) scattered over a grassland understorey.

We investigated the distribution of trace elements in soils and woody plants from a large phytomanaged site, the Guadiamar Valley (SW Spain), 7 years after a mine spill, which contaminated the area in 1998. At spill-affected sites, topsoils (0-25 cm) had elevated concentrations of As (129 mg kg(-1)), Bi (1.64 mg kg(-1)), Cd (1.44 mg kg(-1)), Cu (115 mg kg(-1)), Pb (210 mg kg(-1)), Sb (13.8 mg kg(-1)), Tl (1.17 mg kg(-1)) and Zn (457 mg kg(-1)).

We investigated the distribution of trace elements in soils and woody plants from a large phytomanaged site, the Guadiamar Valley (SW Spain), 7 years after a mine spill, which contaminated the area in 1998. At spill-affected sites, topsoils (0-25 cm) had elevated concentrations of As (129 mg kg(-1)), Bi (1.64 mg kg(-1)), Cd (1.44 mg kg(-1)), Cu (115 mg kg(-1)), Pb (210 mg kg(-1)), Sb (13.8 mg kg(-1)), Tl (1.17 mg kg(-1)) and Zn (457 mg kg(-1)). Trace element concentrations in the studied species were, on average, within the normal ranges for higher plants. An exception was white poplar (Populus alba), which accumulated Cd and Zn in leaves up to 3 and 410 mg kg(-1) respectively.

We experimentally determine the effect of damage by wild boars (Sus scrofa) in recruitment rate and spatial pattern of a Mediterranean tree, the holm oak (Quercus ilex). We monitored oak establishment in the Sierra Nevada of southeastern Spain during 4 years (1999–2002) in four plots, two fenced and two unfenced that were used as controls. In addition, we planted 1-year-old seedlings in all microhabitats, both in fenced and control plots, to experimentally determine the effect of wild boar on their microhabitat-dependent survival. Despite seedling abundance being similar inside and outside the fences, sapling abundance diminished up to 50% in unfenced plots compared to fenced plots. Wild boars also seemed to modify the spatial distribution of seedlings and saplings. Whereas seedlings were most abundant under pines both in fenced and control plots, sapling abundance was highest under pine trees in fenced plots, but similarly abundant under pines or shrubs in control plots. This change in spatial pattern was due to the effect of wild boars killing seedlings when looking for food under pines. The effects of the different mortality factors were not additive. Where ungulates are absent, recruitment is high and occurs under oaks and especially under pines. Where wild boars are present, recruitment diminishes and occurs mostly under shrubs and pines. Wild boars arrest population growth and modify the spatial pattern of recruitment.</style></abstract></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%">Cubera, Elena</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Moreno, Gerardo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Elena, C.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gerardo, M.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Effect of single Quercus ilex trees upon spatial and seasonal changes in soil water content in dehesas of central western Spain</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ann.

As estimates of seedling performance, we measured seedling survival and height. Estimates of seedling performance were higher in 2001 and 2002 than in 2003. Oak or pine microhabitats achieved higher survival rates than brooms or open areas whilst under oaks, brooms or in open areas seedling height was lower than under tall shrubs. Irradiance signiﬁcantly affected seedling survival and growth. The lower the irradiance, the higher the survival. Maximal growth was found at intermediate irradiance, indicating that, in this system, moderate shade is crucial for Q. ilex seedling recruitment.

As a ﬁnal point, dispersers’ activity creates a heterogeneous distribution of acorn deposition ﬁltering out part of the total irradiance present in the study site.</style></abstract></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%">Correia dos Santos, Margarida Maria</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Alves, Sheila</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">de Lurdes Simões Gonçalves, Maria</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Correia dos Santos, Margarida Maria</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Alves, Sheila</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">de Lurdes Simões Gonçalves, Maria</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kinetics and Mechanism of Ni(II) Chelation in Model and Real Solutions of Xylem Sap of Quercus ilex</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Electroanalysis</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1002</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">200703972</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Complexation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cyclic voltammetry</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">doi</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">elan</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kinetics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nickel</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Xylem sap</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2007</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2007///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/elan.200703972http://doi.wiley.com/10.1002/elan.200703972</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">19</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2351 - 2361</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The kinetics of formation and dissociation of Ni(II) complexes with oxalic and citric acids was studied by cyclic voltammetry in model solutions of xylem sap of Q. ilex (the dominant tree growing on serpentine soils of Northeast Portugal) using representative concentrations, pH and ionic strength.

Bossema’s pioneer work suggested that jays do not select acorns randomly, but rather they preferentially select some size and species. Preference for some seeds over others may have implications on plant community dynamics by conferring advantages (or disadvantages) on the selected (avoided) seed characteristics. In this paper we test to what extent jays select acorns by species and/or by size and the relation between these two traits in Mediterranean oak species. The experiments consist of a set of ﬁeld tests in which acorns from four different coexisting Mediterranean oak species (Quercus ilex, Quercus faginea, Quercus suber, and Quercus coccifera) were placed in artiﬁcial feeders accessible to wild jays. The acorns were previously measured to control individual acorn characteristics. Using video-recording techniques, we followed jay activity and the fate of each acorn (sequence of acorn selection and method of transport). Q. ilex acorns were preferred over other acorns, and Q. coccifera acorns were avoided when other acorns were available. Preference for Q. faginea and Q. suber acorns was intermediate, that is, they were preferred over Q. coccifera acorns but not over Q. ilex acorns. Large acorns were also preferred although acorn species selection was stronger than size selection. Jays selected species and size both by visual means and by using acorn area as an indicator of size. Acorns wider than 17–19 mm were carried in the bill because of throat limitation. Our results conﬁrm Bossema’s study on temperate oaks and extend it to Mediterranean oak species, revealing implications on mixed oak forest dynamics.</style></abstract></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%">Pons, Josep</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pausas, Juli G.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Not only size matters: Acorn selection by the European jay (Garrulus glandarius)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Acta Oecologica</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Acorn selection</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Garrulus glandarius</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean oak forests</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mutualism</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus coccifera</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus faginea</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus suber</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Regeneration</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2007</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2007///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S1146609X0700015X</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">31</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">353 - 360</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A strong selection for acorn characteristics is expected to have evolved in the mutualistic relationship between the European jay (Garrulus glandarius) and the oak (Quercus spp.).

Double rings in Q. ilex can potentially be used in dendroclimatological studies, as they are formed in response to climatic conditions within the growing season.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">doi: 10.1139/X07-050doi: 10.1139/X07-050The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: NRC Research Press</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%">FUENTES, D.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">VALDECANTOS, A.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">CORTINA, J.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vallejo, V.R.

Simulations were carried out for a range of hypothetical but realistic forest canopies of the evergreen Quercus ilex (holm oak). * • Two emission models were applied that either did (SIM-BIM2) or did not (G93) account for cumulative responses to temperature and light. Both were embedded into a canopy model that considered spatial and temporal variations of foliage properties. This canopy model was coupled to a canopy climate model (CANOAK) to determine the micrometeorological conditions at the leaf scale. * • Structural properties considerably impacted monoterpene emission. The sensitivities to changes in total leaf area and to leaf area distribution were found to be of similar magnitude. The two different models performed similarly on a whole-year basis but showed clear differences during certain episodes. * • The analysis showed that structural indices have to be carefully evaluated for proper scaling of emission from leaves to canopy. Further research is encouraged on seasonal dynamics of emission potentials.</style></abstract><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">17244049</style></accession-num></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%">Morin, Xavier</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Améglio, Thierry</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ahas, Rein</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kurz-Besson, Cathy</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lanta, Vojtěch</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lebourgeois, François</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Miglietta, Franco</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chuine, Isabelle</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Variation in cold hardiness and carbohydrate concentration from dormancy induction to bud burst among provenances of three European oak species</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tree Physiology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">adult individuals</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">climate</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">distribution</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">frost dam- age</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">natural populations</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phenology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus pubescens</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus robur</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2007</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">27</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">817-825</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Although cold hardiness is known to be a major determinant of tree species distribution, its dynamics and the factors that regulate it remain poorly understood.

(holm oak), a widespread Mediterranean species, constitutively emits large quantities of a complex genotype-dependent mixture of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). During a mass outbreak of gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar L.) in southern France, we examined the effects of gypsy moth feeding on VOC production from whole apices and single leaves of Q. ilex. Feeding induced the emission of new VOCs at rates up to 240 ng m−2 s−1 (16% of the total VOC release), which mainly consisted of sesquiterpenes, a homoterpene and a monoterpene alcohol. The new compounds were emitted after a delay of several hours following infestation and their production declined rapidly when caterpillars were removed. Undamaged leaves of infested trees emitted new VOCs, but with a different composition to those of damaged leaves and at lower rates. Neither caterpillars nor caterpillar excrement released VOCs. Emission of constitutive VOCs by undamaged leaves of infested trees temporary increased by up to 30%, whereas, in damaged leaves, they remained stable and decreased after some days when necrotic spots occurred around the feeding sites. In continuous light and at constant temperature, emissions of new VOCs showed a marked diurnal cycle, whereas those of constitutive VOCs did not. The results suggest that induced VOCs make a significant contribution to the atmospheric VOC load and may mediate trophic interactions. The observed differential local and systemic responses in composition, quantity and time courses of emissions mirror the existence of several regulation processes triggered by different signaling compounds and elicitors.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/treephys/27.10.1433</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/treephys/27.10.1433</style></research-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%">David, T.

(holm oak) and Quercus suber L. (cork oak). We studied a savannah-type woodland where these species coexist, with the aim of better understanding the mechanisms of tree adaptation to seasonal drought. In both species, seasonal variations in transpiration and predawn leaf water potential showed a maximum in spring followed by a decline through the rainless summer and a recovery with autumn rainfall. Although the observed decrease in predawn leaf water potential in summer indicates soil water depletion, trees maintained transpiration rates above 0.7 mm day−1 during the summer drought. By that time, more than 70% of the transpired water was being taken from groundwater sources. The daily fluctuations in soil water content suggest that some root uptake of groundwater was mediated through the upper soil layers by hydraulic lift. During the dry season, Q. ilex maintained higher predawn leaf water potentials, canopy conductances and transpiration rates than Q. suber. The higher water status of Q. ilex was likely associated with their deeper root systems compared with Q. suber. Whole-tree hydraulic conductance and minimum midday leaf water potential were lower in Q. ilex, indicating that Q. ilex was more tolerant to drought than Q. suber. Overall, Q. ilex seemed to have more effective drought avoidance and drought tolerance mechanisms than Q. suber.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/treephys/27.6.79310.1093/treephys/27.6.793</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%">Bonet, J A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fischer, C R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Colinas, C</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cultivation of black truffle to promote reforestation and land-use stability</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Agron.

We analyzed the effects of high and low irradiances on 31 ecological, morphological and physiological variables in saplings of four late-successional Mediterranean trees, two deciduous (Acer opalus subsp. granatense (Boiss.) Font Quer &amp; Rothm. and Quercus pyrenaica Willd.) and two evergreen (Pinus nigra Arnold subsp. salzmannii (Dunal) Franco and Quercus ilex L.), which coexist in mature montane forests. Species differed in both their capacity to withstand high radiation and in their shade tolerance. The two deciduous species were the least tolerant to high radiation, exhibiting both dynamic and chronic photoinhibition in full sunlight, with severe implications for gas exchange and photosynthetic performance. Excess light severely limited the survival of A. opalus subsp. granatense, even minor reductions of excessive radiation (from full sunlight to 80% sunlight) being crucial for sapling survival. Among species, P. nigra was the most tolerant of high irradiances but showed the poorest shade acclimation. Interspecific differences in the mechanisms of response to light provide a partial explanation of the differential regeneration patterns previously reported for these species, with shade-tolerant plants (i.e., deciduous broadleaf species) benefiting the most from associations with nurse plants. We conclude that light availability is an important environmental factor defining the regeneration niche of Mediterranean woody species.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/treephys/26.7.947</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/treephys/26.7.947</style></research-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%">dos Santos, Margarida Maria Correia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Alves, Sheila</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">de Lurdes SimõesGonçalves, Maria</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nabais, Cristina</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dynamic Modelling of Nickel Complexation in Xylem Sap of Quercus ilex: A Voltammetric Study</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Electroanalysis</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Inert complexes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mixed complexes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nickel</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Semidynamic complexes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Voltammetry</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Xylem sap</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2006</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2006///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/elan.200503446</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">18</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">814 - 822</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holm oak (Quercus ilex) is the dominant tree growing on serpentine soils of northeast Portugal, characterized by elevated soil concentrations of Ni and Mg, combined with low Ca concentrations.

In the present work we describe a process-based emission model taking into account the physiological/phenological state of Holm oak leaves and biochemical processes leading to the formation of monoterpenes. The model ‘seasonal isoprenoid synthase model–biochemical isoprenoid biosynthesis model’ (SIM–BIM2) is developed based on a previous version which was used to simulate isoprene emissions from deciduous oaks. The current model considers additional enzymatic reactions in Holm oak chloroplasts that lead to the formation of monoterpenes. The comparison of simulated and measured biochemical properties as well as emission rates displayed that the ability of the model to dynamically adjust monoterpene biosynthesis capacity by modulating the amount of monoterpene synthase activities in dependence of the weather pattern led to realistic simulations of light-dependent monoterpene emission rates. Differences to simulation results obtained by a widely used alternative model [Guenther, A.B., Zimmerman, P.R., Harley, P.C., Monson, R.K., Fall, R., 1993. Isoprene and monoterpene emission rate variability—model evaluations and sensitivity analyses. Journal of Geophysical Research 98, 12609–12617] are discussed.</style></abstract></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%">David, T.

When considering the species studied separately, the results indicated the primary role of stomatal regulation in the drought resistance of Q. ilex, while increased apoplastic water fraction had a major contribution in the drought resistance of P. latifolia.</style></abstract></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%">Espelta, Josep Maria</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cortés, Pilar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mangirón, Marta Retana</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Differences in biomass partitioning, leaf nitrogen content, and water use efficiency (δ13C) result in similar performance of seedlings of two Mediterranean oaks with contrasting leaf habit</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ecoscience</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">deciduous</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">evergreen</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean-type climate</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus cerrioides</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Regeneration</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2005</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2005///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">447 - 454</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Co-occurrence of winter-deciduous and evergreen oaks is common in some Mediterranean-type climate areas.

A steady-state, open photosynthetic system was designed and used in the field to supply a small leaf cuvette with conditioned air stream (growth CO2 concentrations, humidified, cooled) and augmented with either background or elevated O-3. Two innovations led to success: 1) supplying the cuvette with cooled air instead of Peltier cooling within the cuvette; and 2) using a custom-designed, low flow (capable of 100 seem), fast response (20 S) O-3 monitor. We tested whether elevated CO2 would alter stomatal response to short term, steady state elevated O-3. Holm oak (Quercus ilex L., Fagaceae), an evergreen broadleaf tree growing near a geothermal CO2 vent, has been exposed over its lifetime to a gradient of CO2 concentrations. We chose trees in areas averaging 450 mu l 1(-1) (low background CO2) and 1500 mu l 1(-1) (super-elevated CO2). Background O-3 exposure at this site is moderate (10 am to 5 pm averages of 62 nl 1(-1) in June). We measured gas exchange at the growth CO2 levels, and at ambient O-3 or 1.7x ambient O-3 concentrations. At low background CO2, short term elevated O-3 depressed foliar transpiration. Because there was little concurrent change in net assimilation, instantaneous transpiration efficiency was increased. At super-elevated CO2, short term elevated O-3 did not affect foliar transpiration. Because there was a concurrent decrease in net assimilation, instantaneous transpiration efficiency was decreased at elevated CO2 and O-3.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;pub-location: WIENER STRASSE 21-23, A-3580 HORN, AUSTRIA&lt;br/&gt;publisher: FERDINAND BERGER SOEHNE</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%">Hijano, Concepción Fidalgo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Domínguez, Maria Dolores Petit</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gimínez, Rosario García</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sínchez, Pilar Hungría</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">García, Inís Sancho</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Higher plants as bioindicators of sulphur dioxide emissions in urban environments.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Environmental monitoring and assessment</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">atmospheric pollution</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bioindicators</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cedrus deodara</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">higher plants</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nerium oleander</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pinus pinea</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pyracantha coccinea</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sulphur dioxide</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2005</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">111</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">75-88</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The evaluation of certain vascular plants that grow in the city of Madrid as biomonitors of SO(2) air pollution in urban environments has been carried out. Total concentration of sulphur in leaves of the chosen higher plants as well as other parameters in close relation to this contaminant (visible injury symptoms, chlorophyll a- and b-content and peroxidase activity) have been determined in order to study the spatial distribution and temporal changes in SO(2) deposition. Results obtained show that coniferous species such as Pinus pinea, were more sensitive to SO(2) atmospheric concentration than leafy species as Quercux ilex subspecies ballota and, in the same way, bush species, such as Pyracantha coccinea and Nerium oleander, were more sensitive than wooded species, such as Cedrus deodara and Pinus pinea, respectively. There is a higher accumulation of sulphur in vegetable species located near highways and dense traffic incidence roads and near areas with high density of population. The minimum values for accumulation of SO(2) were registered in winter and spring seasons (from January to April) due to the vegetative stop; while maximum values are obtained during the summer season (from June to September), due to the stoma opening. The highest increments in sulphur concentration, calculated as the difference between two consecutive months, are obtained in May and June for all considered species except for Cedrus deodara and Pyracantha coccinea, both species have few seasonal changes during the whole year. Some species are more sensitive to natural washing than others, showing a decrease in sulphur concentration after rainfall periods.</style></abstract><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">16311823</style></accession-num></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>3</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gea Izquierdo, Guillermo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cañellas, Isabel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Calama, Rafael</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sánchez Martín, Manuel Mario</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Montero, Gregorio</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">INFLUENCIA DE LA ENCINA SOBRE LA PRODUCCIÓN Y LA COMPOSICIÓN DEL PASTO: CONSECUENCIAS SOBRE EL MANEJO SILVOPASTORAL</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">IV Congreso Forestal Español</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">comunidad de anuales</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dehesa</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">modelos selvicultura</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2005</style></year></dates><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zaragoza</style></pub-location><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">El ecosistema de dehesa se extiende por más de 3x106 ha del O y SO peninsulares. Pese a su gran importancia económica y ecológica, su persistencia a corto plazo se encuentra amenazada, fundamentalmente por la falta de regeneración del arbolado y los cambios socioeconómicos. Por ello, resulta urgente desarrollar modelos de selvicultura que aseguren un desarrollo sostenible. El árbol es la base del sistema, influyendo, entre otros, sobre la producción animal, el suelo y la biodiversidad. Cualquier modelo selvícola a desarrollar deberá incluir los diversos factores del sistema, los cuales resultan diferentes a los de los ecosistemas forestales clásicos fundamentados en la producción de madera. En este estudio se realiza una aproximación a la influencia del arbolado adulto aislado sobre una comunidad herbácea de especies anuales.

Pese a su gran importancia económica y ecológica, su persistencia a corto plazo se encuentra amenazada, fundamentalmente por la falta de regeneración del arbolado y los cambios socioeconómicos. Por ello, resulta urgente desarrollar modelos de selvicultura que aseguren un desarrollo sostenible. El árbol es la base del sistema, influyendo, entre otros, sobre la producción animal, el suelo y la biodiversidad. Cualquier modelo selvícola a desarrollar deberá incluir los diversos factores del sistema, los cuales resultan diferentes a los de los ecosistemas forestales clásicos fundamentados en la producción de madera. En este estudio se realiza una aproximación a la influencia del arbolado adulto aislado sobre una comunidad herbácea de especies anuales. Para ello se ha estudiado en un año lluvioso la producción y composición del pasto en ocho distancias proporcionales al radio de copa según orientaciones NE y SO. La influencia del arbolado se deja sentir hasta el doble del radio de copa y de un modo diferencial según orientaciones, siendo más productivo el pasto situado al SO.

Total N and its distribution among lignin, cellulose and acid–detergent–soluble fractions were measured and related to the overall decay process. The litter organic substance of Cistus and Myrtus decomposed more rapidly than that of Quercus. The decay constants were 0.47 yearK1 , 0.75 yearK1 and 0.30 yearK1 for Cistus, Myrtus and Quercus, respectively. Lignin and cellulose contents were different as were their relative amounts (34 and 18%, 15 and 37%, 37 and 39% of the overall litter organic matter before exposure, for Cistus, Myrtus and Quercus, respectively). Lignin began to decrease after 6 and 8 months of exposure in Cistus and Myrtus, respectively, while it did not change signiﬁcantly during the entire study period in Quercus. The holocellulose, in contrast, began to decompose in Cistus after 1 year, while in Quercus and Myrtus immediately. Nitrogen was strongly immobilized in all the litters in the early period of decay. Its release began after the ﬁrst year in Cistus and Myrtus and after 2 years of decomposition in Quercus. These litters still contained about 60, 20 and 90% of the initial nitrogen at the end of the experiment (3 years). Prior to litter exposure nitrogen associated with the lignin fraction was 65, 54 and 37% in Cistus, Myrtus and Quercus, while that associated with the cellulose fraction was 30, 24 and 28%. Although most of the nitrogen was not lost from litters, its distribution among the litter components changed signiﬁcantly during decomposition. In Cistus and Myrtus the nitrogen associated with lignin began to decrease just 4 months after exposure. In Quercus this process was slowed and after 3 years of decomposition 8% of the nitrogen remained associated with lignin or lignin-like substances. The nitrogen associated with cellulose or cellulose-like substances, in contrast, began to decrease from the beginning of cellulose decomposition in all three species.

In the United Kingdom so far, bleeding cankers caused by inner bark infections have been found on Aesculus hippocastanum, Fagus sylvatica, Q. cerris, Q. falcata, and Q. petraea (http://rapra.csl.gov.uk [2005]). Shoot tip dieback (ramorum dieback) and foliar necrosis (ramorum leaf blight) are other diseases caused by the pathogen on understory and ornamental plants (3). Inoculum is produced on infected shoots and leaves of foliar hosts but not on bole cankers (1). Foliar hosts are thus critical in initiating and maintaining epidemics of tree mortality resulting from lethal bark cankers. Ramorum dieback and blight occurs in Europe on genera Rhododendron, Camellia, Kalmia, Pieris, and Viburnum (http://rapra.csl.gov.uk [2005]), and now we report these diseases on foliage and shoots of holm oaks (Quercus ilex) in Cornwall (UK). First discovered in November 2003, infected young leaves had a water-soaked, dull gray appearance, and petioles were blackened. Lesions started at leaf margins, tips, or petioles, often progressing into the midrib veins. Initial infections also occurred on shoots and extended into the petioles. If shoots were infected, they were blackened at first, but later in the season clusters of dry, dead leaves and twigs characterized branch tips. Infected mature leaves bore dry, reddish-brown, restricted lesions. P. ramorum (A1 sexual compatibility type belonging to the European population) was isolated and confirmed by morphological studies, ITS sequence (GenBank Accession No. AY924253), and amplified fragment length polymorphism analyses. Lesions developed on detached leaves dipped for 10 sec in inoculum (4 × 105 zoospores per ml) and incubated in moist chambers at 20°C for 6 days (2). Two isolates were used (four leaves per isolate). The pathogen was reisolated, and the tests were repeated twice. Koch's postulates were also successfully completed once on foliage attached to saplings. To our knowledge, this is the first report of P. ramorum on holm oak. So far, at least 24 holm oaks are infected at various woodland and garden sites in the United Kingdom; infected rhododendrons have also been found at these sites. P. ramorum has also been recorded on saplings in nurseries. The high sporulation potential, the evergreen nature of leaves, and susceptible shoots indicate that holm oak could be a significant source of inoculum for other hosts.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APSAPSThe following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;pub-location: 3340 PILOT KNOB ROAD, ST PAUL, MN 55121 USA&lt;br/&gt;publisher: AMER PHYTOPATHOLOGICAL SOC</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%">Denman, S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kirk, S A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Brasier, C M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barton, V C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hughes, K J D</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Webber, J F</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phytophthora ramorum on Quercus ilex in the United Kingdom.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PLANT DISEASE</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">pathogens</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phytophthora ramorum</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2005</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AMER PHYTOPATHOLOGICAL SOC</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3340 PILOT KNOB ROAD, ST PAUL, MN 55121 USA</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">89</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1241</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phytophthora ramorum causes bleeding cankers of trunks of trees native to the west coast of the United States (i.e., Quercus kelloggii, Q. parvula var. shrevei, and Lithocarpus densiflorus).

Soil samples for ectomycorrhizae (ECM) were taken over a 3-year period in each study plot in spring, summer, autumn and winter. ECM morphotypes were identified and the relative abundance of each morphotype in each soil sample calculated, along with species richness, Shannon diversity index and percentage of mycorrhization in each soil sample. The relative abundance of certain ECM morphotypes differed between burned and control plots, and the percentage of mycorrhizal tips was significantly lower in the burned than in the control plot. Nevertheless, there were no significant differences in the diversity, species richness or species composition of the ECM community in the burned and control plots. The dominant ECM morphotypes in both stands were Cenococcum geophilum and several thelephoroid fungi. Sphaerosporella brunnea and Pisolithus tinctorius thrived especially in the burned plot, whereas three ectomycorrhizal morphotypes assigned to the genus Hebeloma were especially abundant in the control plot.

Soil samples for ectomycorrhizae (ECM) were taken over a 3-year period in each study plot in spring, summer, autumn and winter. ECM morphotypes were identified and the relative abundance of each morphotype in each soil sample calculated, along with species richness, Shannon diversity index and percentage of mycorrhization in each soil sample. The relative abundance of certain ECM morphotypes differed between burned and control plots, and the percentage of mycorrhizal tips was significantly lower in the burned than in the control plot. Nevertheless, there were no significant differences in the diversity, species richness or species composition of the ECM community in the burned and control plots. The dominant ECM morphotypes in both stands were Cenococcum geophilum and several thelephoroid fungi. Sphaerosporella brunnea and Pisolithus tinctorius thrived especially in the burned plot, whereas three ectomycorrhizal morphotypes assigned to the genus Hebeloma were especially abundant in the control plot. There was no significant variation in the relative abundance of the ECM morphotypes between seasons, but ECM community species richness was highest in autumn and lowest in summer. The percentage of mycorrhizal tips reached a maximum in winter, with its minimum in autumn. Collection of samples over the 3-year period also enabled us to detect a significant increase in percentage of ECM colonisation in the burned stand over time.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;accession-num: 15889285</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%">Tsakaldimi, M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zagas, T.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tsitsoni, T.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ganatsas, P.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Root Morphology, Stem Growth and Field Performance of Seedlings of Two Mediterranean Evergreen Oak Species Raised in Different Container Types</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant and Soil</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">container seedlings</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">outplanting performance</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus coccifera</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">root morphology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">stem growth</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2005</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2005///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.springerlink.com/index/10.1007/s11104-005-2580-1</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">278</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">85 - 93</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1110400525801</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Outplanting container-grown oak seedlings with undesirable shoot and root characteristics result in poor establishment and reduced ﬁeld growth. The objective of this study was to determine the inﬂuence of container type on both above-and below-ground nursery growth and ﬁeld performance of one-year old taprooted seedlings Quercus ilex L. and Quercus coccifera L. The experiment was conducted in an open-air nursery and the seedlings were grown in three container types. At the end of the nursery, growth period seedlings shoot height, diameter (5 mm above root collar), shoot and root biomass, root surface area, root volume and total root length were assessed. Then the seedlings were planted in the ﬁeld and their survival and growth were recorded for two growing seasons after outplanting. The results showed a diﬀerence between the Quercus species in the eﬀect of container type. Q. ilex seedlings raised in paper-pot had signiﬁcantly greater height, diameter, shoot and root biomass and root volume than those raised in the other two container types. Similarly, Q. coccifera seedlings raised in paper-pot, had signiﬁcantly greater above-and below-ground growth than those raised in the other two container types.

Evergreen oak is representative of tree species in the forests of the French Mediterranean area. Acid (E.C. 3.1.3.2.) and alkaline (E.C. 3.1.3.1.) phosphatases, were measured over 13 months in the forest litter, along with several biotic and abiotic variables, potentially involved in the regulation of these enzymes. These comprised moisture, temperature, pH, water-extractable inorganic P (PI ), fungi, culturable heterotrophic bacteria and protein concentrations. Moisture considerably affected the production of proteins and acid phosphatases, probably formed by litter microorganisms. This result corroborated the study of Criquet et al.

However, it appeared that moisture cannot alone predict all of the variations in phosphatase activities and the mineralisation rate of organic P (PO). Indeed, principal component analyses (PCA) and multiple regressions showed that temperature and bacterial communities were also implicated in phosphatase dynamics and PO mineralisation. Acid phosphatases were negatively correlated with the temperature, whilst alkaline phosphatases were positively correlated with this variable. The signiﬁcant correlation obtained between bacteria and PI concentrations, and the lack of correlation between bacteria and both acid and alkaline phosphomonoesterases, suggest that other important phosphatase types, such as phosphodiesterases, must be strongly implicated in PO mineralisation of the litter and in the regulation of P microbial metabolism.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7</style></issue></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%">Criquet, S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ferré, E</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Farnet, A M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Le petit, J</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Annual dynamics of phosphatase activities in an evergreen oak litter: influence of biotic and abiotic factors</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Soil Biology and Biochemistry</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">biodegradation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phosphatases</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phosphate</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phosphomonoesterases</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phosphorus transformations</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2004</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">36</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1111-1118</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">As part of a study of the processes involved in litter biodegradation, we considered the variations over 1 year of the phosphatase activities in sclerophyllous evergreen oak litter (Quercus ilex L.).

The signiﬁcant correlation obtained between bacteria and PI concentrations, and the lack of correlation between bacteria and both acid and alkaline phosphomonoesterases, suggest that other important phosphatase types, such as phosphodiesterases, must be strongly implicated in PO mineralisation of the litter and in the regulation of P microbial metabolism.</style></abstract></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%">Güllüce, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Adıgüzel, A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Öğütçü, H</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Şengül, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Karaman, İ</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Şahin, F</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Antimicrobial effects of Quercus ilex L. extract</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phytotherapy Research</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">antimicrobial activity</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">medical plant</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">minimal inhibition concentration</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2004</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">John Wiley &amp; Sons, Ltd.</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">18</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">208-211</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The antimicrobial activities of the methanol extract of Quercus ilex L. (Pırnal oak) leaves were tested in vitro against a wide range of human and plant-associated microorganisms. A total of 132 microbial organisms belonging to 55 bacteria and ﬁve fungi and yeast species were studied using a disc-diffusion method and microdilution assays. The results were evaluated as inhibition zones around the disc impregnated with Q. ilex extract at a concentration of 300 µL/mL. The results showed that Q. ilex did not have any antifungal activities against Alterneria alternata, Aspergillus ﬂavus, Fusarium oxysporum, Penicillum spp., whereas there were inhibition effects on the growth of all Candida albicans isolates. In total 97 bacterial strains (74%) were found to be resistant to Q. ilex extract. The remaining 35 (27%) strains of seven different bacteria genera including Brucella, Bacillus, Enterobacter, Neisseria, Pseudomonas and Escherichia were susceptible to the extract tested. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of the extract ranged from 125 to 500 µL/mL. These results suggest that Q. ilex possesses compounds with antibacterial and anticandidal properties.

At the landscape level, a mosaic of responses to the drought was observed, linked to the distribution of lithological substrates. Damage to the dominant tree species (Q. ilex) and the most common understorey shrub (Erica arborea) was more noticeable on the compact substrates (breccia) than on the fissured ones (schist). This result was consistent with observations documenting deeper root penetration in schist than in breccia materials, allowing the plants growing on fissured substrates to use water from deeper soil levels. Smaller plants were more vulnerable to drought than larger plants in the trees, but not in the shrubs. Overall, Q. ilex was more affected than E. arborea. The resilience of the system was evaluated from the canopy recovery 1 year after the episode. Stump and crown resprouting was fairly extensive, but the damage pattern in relation to substrate, plant size, and species remained similar. The effect of recurrent drought episodes was studied on vegetation patches of Q. ilex located on mountain slopes and surrounded by bare rock. We observed that plants that resprouted weakly after a previous drought in 1985 were more likely to die or to produce poor regeneration in 1995 than plants that had resprouted vigorously. Vegetation patches located on the lower part of the slope were also less damaged than patches situated uphill. The study provides evidence of relevant changes in forest canopy as a consequence of extreme climate events. The distribution of this effect across the landscape is mediated by lithological substrate, causing patchy patterns. The results also support the hypothesis that recurrent droughts can produce a progressive loss of resilience, by depleting the ability of surviving plants to regenerate.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Blackwell Science Ltd</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%">Codogno, M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Furlanetto, A.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Climatic factors and establishment of Quercus ilex-communities in Trieste Province (NE Italy)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Annali di Botanica</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">climate</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holm oak</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">plant ecology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Trieste province</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vegetation</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://www.rspi.uniroma1.it/index.php/Annalidibotanica/article/view/9172</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">129 - 138</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">In the coastal area called &quot;Cernizza&quot; (near Duino. ca 15 km NW from Trieste), at an altitude between 0 and 40 m. is located a wood vegetation complex characterized by Quercus ilex and Carpinus orientalis.

We report the effect of acorn dispersal by jays on the light environment experienced by Holm Oaks (Quercus ilex L.) during early recruitment in a Mediterranean montane forest. * 2Four light variables were estimated by studying hemispherical photographs: direct site factor (DSF); indirect site factor (ISF); and potential direct radiation during April (PDRApril) and August (PDRAugust). Means and variances of these variables were compared before and after the dispersal of acorns by jays. * 3The landscape occupied by Holm Oaks was very heterogeneous, which translated into differences in the available light among microhabitats of up to one order of magnitude. * 4Because of the spatial pattern of acorn dispersal, the light environment of the oaks during their establishment was much more homogeneous than that in the whole landscape. * 5This demonstrates that the heterogeneity relevant for plant recruitment is not necessarily that of the landscape as a whole.</style></abstract></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%">Cortés, Pilar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Espelta, J.

We considered different recruitment stages and used leaf isotopic discrimination to estimate water use efficiency (WUE) and nitrogen availability and use. Drought decreased the emergence and survival of seedlings and sprouts. Survival and growth of older saplings were not influenced by drought. Seedling emergence of P. latifolia was higher than Q. ilex sprout production, but Q. ilex sprouts had higher survival and growth rates. These differences disappeared in the sapling stage. Carbon isotopic discrimination suggested that Q. ilex sprouts had higher WUE than P. latifolia seedlings. Drought increased WUE of recruits, particularly in Q. ilex. Water use regulation increased with ageing, particularly in P. latifolia. Q. ilex had higher δ15N values than P. latifolia; these were also higher under drier soil conditions. Current year seedlings had higher δ15N than saplings, particularly in P. latifolia, suggesting they exploit superficial soil layers. These results suggest that sprouts obtain benefit from resources stored in parent plants. At earlier stages, they perform better than seedlings. This response is not coupled to adult vulnerability to drought for these species, revealing the difficulty of predicting species dynamics during climate change.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd</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%">Anselmi, Silvia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chiesi, Marta</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Giannini, Monica</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Manes, Fausto</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Maselli, Fabio</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Estimation of Mediterranean forest transpiration and photosynthesis through the use of an ecosystem simulation model driven by remotely sensed data</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Global Ecology and Biogeography</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AVHRR</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ecosystem</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">FOREST-BGC</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean area</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Modelling</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">photosynthesis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus cerris</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Transpiration</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">water efficiency</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://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1466-822X.2004.00101.x</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">13</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">371 - 380</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Aim This paper investigates the use of an ecosystem simulation model, FOREST-BGC, to estimate the main ecophysiological processes (transpiration and photosynthesis) of Mediterranean coastal forest areas using remotely sensed data. Location Model testing was carried out at two protected forest sites in central Italy, one of which was covered by Turkey oak (Circeo National Park) and the other by holm-oak (Castelporziano Estate). Methods At both sites, transpiration and photosynthesis measurements were collected in the field during the growing seasons over a four-year period (1999 and 2001 for the Turkey oak; 1997, 1999 and 2000 for the holm-oak). Calibration of the model was obtained through combining information derived from ground measurements and remotely sensed data. In particular, remote sensing estimates of the Leaf Area Index derived from 1 × 1-km NOAA AVHRR Normalized Difference Vegetation Index data were used to improve the adaptation of the model to local forest conditions. Results The results indicated different strategies regarding water use efficiency, ‘water spending’ for Turkey oak and ‘water saving’ for holm-oak. The water use efficiency for the holm-oak was consistently higher than that for the Turkey oak and the relationship between VPD and WUE for the holm-oak showed a higher coefficient of determination (R2 = 0.9238). Comparisons made between the field measurements of transpiration and photosynthesis and the model estimates showed that the integration procedure used for the deciduous oak forest was effective, but that there is a need for further studies regarding the sclerophyllous evergreen forest. In particular, for Turkey oak the simulations of transpiration yielded very good results, with errors lower than 0.3 mm H2O/day, while the simulation accuracy for photosynthesis was lower. In the case of holm-oak, transpiration was markedly overestimated for all days considered, while the simulations of photosynthesis were very accurate. Main conclusions Overall, the approach offers interesting operational possibilities for the monitoring of Mediterranean forest ecosystems, particularly in view of the availability of new satellite sensors with a higher spatial and temporal resolution, which have been launched in recent years.</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;publisher: Blackwell Science Ltd</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%">Anselmi, Silvia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chiesi, Marta</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Giannini, Monica</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Manes, Fausto</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Maselli, Fabio</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Estimation of Mediterranean forest transpiration and photosynthesis through the use of an ecosystem simulation model driven by remotely sensed data</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Global Ecology and Biogeography</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AVHRR</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ecosystem</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">FOREST-BGC</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean area</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Modelling</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">photosynthesis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus cerris</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Transpiration</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">water efficiency</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2004</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Blackwell Science Ltd</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">13</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">371-380</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Aim This paper investigates the use of an ecosystem simulation model, FOREST-BGC, to estimate the main ecophysiological processes (transpiration and photosynthesis) of Mediterranean coastal forest areas using remotely sensed data.

In the mountain chains of southeastern Spain, holm oak forests representing the potential natural vegetation are currently highly fragmented and subjected to extensive grazing by goats and sheep. This grazing activity by large herbivores has important impacts on community structure and dynamics of the remaining remnants because several processes associated with reproduction are affected. The present research analyses the variation of stand structure and regeneration of six forests dominated by Quercus ilex along a gradient of increasing grazing intensity. Stands of higher grazing intensity are characterized by a lower trunk number. Particularly, trees 1.3 m height and diameter classes 20 cm are clearly less represented. In addition, more intensively grazed forests show a highly aggregated dispersion of trees, which might be explained by an increase of clonally produced ramets by silvipastoral use. On the other hand, no Quercus ilex seedlings were found in any of the stands examined, although acorn production was high and did not correlate with grazing intensity. However, grazing clearly inﬂuences the quality of acorn harvest. We found a signiﬁcant negative correlation between acorn length, acorn mass and grazing intensity and a positive correlation between the percentage of aborted acorns, acorn predation and herbivore activity. Thus, management of grazing in holm oak forests must take the high inﬂuence that livestock exerts on the regeneration of Quercus ilex into account, and maximum sustainable grazing intensity should be signiﬁcantly lower than 0.8 animals per ha.</style></abstract></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%">SÁNCHEZ, M E</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Venegas, J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Romero, M A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phillips, A J L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">TRAPERO, A</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Botryosphaeria and Related Taxa Causing Oak Canker in Southwestern Spain</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Disease</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Botryosphaeria ribis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">diplodia mutila</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fusicoccum aesculi</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Otthia spi- raeae</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus suber</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2003</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Scientific Societies</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">87</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1515-1521</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ABSTRACT Although root disease caused by Phytophthora cinnamomi is considered to be the most frequent and damaging disease associated with Quercus spp. decline in southwestern Spain, cankers commonly are observed on branches of declining Mediterranean Quercus spp. in this region. In surveys carried out in eight declining Quercus forests, strips of necrotic inner bark were common on diseased branches. Botryosphaeria stevensii, B. dothidea, and Diplodia sarmentorum consistently were isolated from these branches. Isolates of all three species caused cankers when inoculated onto excised Quercus branches. Inoculations on healthy branches in the field also induced canker development, but only B. stevensii caused lesions that girdled and killed the branches. The optimum temperature for in vitro growth of B. stevensii and B. dothidea was above 25°C, with slow growth at 35°C. In contrast, D. sarmentorum had an optimum temperature for growth of about 21°C, and did not grow at 35°C. The common occurrence and wide distribution of these pathogens, their association with cankers, and their ability to infect Quercus spp. suggest that they may contribute to the Quercus spp. decline in southwestern Spain.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">doi: 10.1094/PDIS.2003.87.12.1515</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">doi: 10.1094/PDIS.2003.87.12.1515</style></research-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%">CLAVERÍA, V.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DE MIGUEL, A.

In both sites the percentage of ectomycorrhizal colonization tended to be lower after the wildfire. In San Cristóbal, in the burnt site there was a lower abundance of morphotypes compared to the control site. However, in Nazar, five years after the fire, we did not find any significant change in species richness, but rather a shift in the abundance of each morphotype when comparing the burnt and the control plots. There are some species of mycorrhizal fungi which seem to be particularly adapted to fire, such as Type 1 in San Cristóbal and Cenococcum geophilum in Nazar.

However, reported evidence of such shifts under current climate change is still scarce. By comparing current and 1945 vegetation distribution in the Montseny mountains (Catalonia, NE Spain), we report here a progressive replacement of cold-temperate ecosystems by Mediterranean ecosystems. Beech (Fagus sylvatica) forest has shifted altitudinally upwards by ca. 70 m at the highest altitudes (1600–1700 m). Both the beech forests and the heather (Calluna vulgaris) heathlands are being replaced by holm oak (Quercus ilex) forest at medium altitudes (800–1400 m). This beech replacement has been observed to occur through a progressive isolation and degradation of beech stands. In ‘isolated’ (small and surrounded by holm oaks) beech stands, beech trees are 30% more defoliated, beech recruitment is 41% lower, and holm oak recruitment is three times higher than in ‘continental’ (large and continuous) beech stands. The progressively warmer conditions, complemented by the land use changes (mainly the cessation of traditional land management) are the apparent causes, providing a paradigmatic example of global change affecting distributions of plant species and biomes.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Blackwell Science, Ltd</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%">Cherubini, Paolo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gartner, Barbara L.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tognetti, Roberto</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bräker, Otto U.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Schoch, Werner</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">INNES, JOHN L.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Identification, measurement and interpretation of tree rings in woody species from mediterranean climates.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biological reviews of the Cambridge Philosophical Society</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Arbutus unedo</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dendrochronology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dendroecology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ecophysiology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fraxinus ornus</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean climate</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">mediterranean tree rings</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean vegetation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phenology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus cerris</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus pubescens</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">wood anatomy</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2003</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2003///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12620063</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">78</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">119 - 148</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">We review the literature dealing with mediterranean climate, vegetation, phenology and ecophysiology relevant to the understanding of tree-ring formation in mediterranean regions.

Mediterranean tree rings can be dated and used for dendrochronological purposes, but great care should be taken in selecting sampling sites, species and sample trees.</style></abstract><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12620063</style></accession-num></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%">Joffre, Richard</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">OURCIVAL, JEAN-MARC</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rambal, Serge</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ROCHETEAU, ALAIN</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The key-role of topsoil moisture on CO$_2$ efflux from a Mediterranean Quercus ilex forest</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ann.

The main objective of this paper was to understand regulation imposed by soil water content and temperature on soil and ecosystem CO2 efflux in a holm oak (Quercus ilex L.) Mediterranean forest. Soil CO2 efflux was monitored monthly during 1999 and 2001. Moreover, experimental water treatments were conducted in 1999 over 9 small plots (0.3 m2) during nine months. Results showed strong decreases of soil CO2 efflux for a relative soil water content below 0.7. Ecosystem respiration measured by eddy covariance over a 4-year period showed strong sensitivity to soil water content and temperature. Severe limitations of soil and ecosystem efflux imposed by low values of soil water content occurred on about 90 days per year. The best adjustments of soil and ecosystem CO2 efflux were obtained using regression models where the exponential effect of temperature is linearly related to soil water content ( r2 = 0.68 and 0.79 for soil and ecosystem respectively). Our results highlighted strong differences in respiration sensitivity to topsoil moisture between soil and ecosystem. When the relative water content (RWC) is low (0.4), an increase of 1 °C provokes an increase of soil respiration of 5.7% and an increase of ecosystem respiration of 8.6%. For nonlimiting soil water conditions, at RWC = 1, the increases of respiration caused by a 1 °C temperature increase are of 8.5% and 16.5% for soil and ecosystem respectively. These results emphasized the probable determinant influences of changes in soil water regime for respiratory fluxes and net carbon exchanges of Mediterranean forest ecosystems.</style></abstract></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%">Bergero, Roberta</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Girlanda, Mariangela</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bello, Federica</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Luppi, Anna Maria</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Perotto, Silvia</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Soil persistence and biodiversity of ericoid mycorrhizal fungi in the absence of the host plant in a Mediterranean ecosystem.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mycorrhiza</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Erica arborea</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean ecosystem</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant succession</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Post-cutting</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2003</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">13</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">69-75</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3901165029</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The occurrence of suitable mycorrhizal inocula may be an important factor affecting the dynamics of plant communities.

Gas exchange was quantified in dynamic cuvettes combined with an infrared gas analyzer. * • Acetaldehyde and acetone emissions from leaves of Q. ilex were enhanced by elevated CO2 in the autumn (from 14–40 nmol m−2 min−1 and from 2–8 nmol m−2 min−1, respectively), but not in the summer. No significant effects were found for leaves of Q. pubescens. The effects of CO2 on Q. ilex were mainly a result of decreased emissions by control trees under ambient CO2 concentrations in the autumn; emissions from trees exposed to elevated CO2 remained at a high level. * • Elevated atmospheric CO2 causes autumnal changes in carbonyl emissions from Quercus ilex. These effects suggest that the production of acetaldehyde and acetone depend on developmental factors. It is not yet clear whether the altered carbonyl emissions are a unique feature of Q. ilex.</style></abstract></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%">Chaves, M.

At the leaf level, the dissipation of excitation energy through processes other than photosynthetic C‐metabolism is an important defence mechanism under conditions of water stress and is accompanied by down‐regulation of photochemistry and, in the longer term, of carbon metabolism.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/aob/mcf105</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/aob/mcf105</style></research-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%">Martínez-Vilalta, J.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Piñol, J.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Beven, K.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A hydraulic model to predict drought-induced mortality in woody plants: an application to climate change in the Mediterranean</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ecological Modelling</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">climate change</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">drought-induced mortality</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean ecosystems</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Modelling</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phillyrea latifolia</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">water transport</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2002</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2002///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S030438000200025X</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">155</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">127 - 147</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The potential effects of climate change on vegetation are of increasing concern. In the Mediterranean region, the dominant impact of climate change is expected to be through the modiﬁcation of water balance. In this paper we present a model developed to predict drought-induced mortality of woody plants under different climatic scenarios. The model is physiologically-based and simulates water transport within individual woody plants, which can be isolated or competing for a common water resource. The model assumes that plant mortality is controlled by the carbon balance: when the plant is unable to transport water to the leaves it ceases to acquire carbon and, if this situation lasts long enough, it can no longer survive. In the particular application that we report in this study, two evergreen species are compared, Quercus ilex and Phillyrea latifolia, which were very differently affected by the acute drought that occurred in E Spain in summer 1994. While in some Q. ilex populations the amount of individuals that dried completely was up to 80%, P. latifolia showed almost no damage. During the years 1999 and 2000, canopy transpiration was monitored using sap-ﬂow sensors in individuals of these two species in a Holm-oak forest from NE Spain. A Generalised Likelihood Uncertainty Estimation (GLUE) approach was used to calibrate the model against sap-ﬂow measurements. The only difference between species that was introduced ‘a priori’ was that Q. ilex was more vulnerable to xylem embolism than P. latifolia (based on our own measurements in the study area). During the calibration process the information provided by the measured sap ﬂows was used to retain the more likely parameter sets for each species. These parameter sets were used in all the following simulations. The model was able to accurately simulate transpiration dynamics of the two species in the study area. When the meteorological conditions of summer 1994 were introduced, the model outputs also reproduced the differential impact that drought had on the two species studied. In the simulations under climate change two factors were explored: the increase in mean temperature (+1.5, +3 and +4.5 °C) through its effect on ET , and the duration of summer drought. Under any of the scenarios, mortalities were much higher for Q. ilex: while this species was predicted to survive with less than 5% mortality droughts of up to 84–94 days, the mortality of P. latifolia reached 5% between days 133 and 150. For droughts longer than 3 months, which is approximately the current drought duration in the study area for dry years, the mortality of Q. ilex increased sharply. These results are discussed in relation to the possible long-term impacts of climate change on Q. ilex-dominated forests</style></abstract></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%">Hódar, José a.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Leaf fluctuating asymmetry of Holm oak in response to drought under contrasting climatic conditions</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Arid Environments</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Drought</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fluctuating asymmetry</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holm oak</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean climate</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">RAINFALL</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2002</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">52</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">233-243</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fluctuating asymmetry (FA) can be defined as small, random deviations from bilateral symmetry in structures that, typically, are bilaterally symmetrical. In plants, FA has been used as a tool for monitoring levels of ecological stress. In this work, I analyse the FA response to drought in the Holm oak (Quercus ilex) in SE Spain, to test whether FA increases or diminishes when climatic conditions are more stressful. Leaves from three different cohorts, corresponding to one drought year (1995) and two wet years (1996 and 1997) were collected at five sites contrasting in rainfall conditions, from very low to rather high rainfall. In two of the zones, two different morphs of leaves were collected. Furthermore, one of the sites was chosen close to a river, to examine the effect of water enhancement in the trees during drought and post-drought conditions. The results revealed no differences in response to drought in terms of FA between leaf morphs. However, while plants from rainy sites showed a decline in leaf FA from drought to wet years, the water-enhanced site and the dry sites showed scant or negligible differences between years. There was a significant decrease in FA from rainy sites to dry sites. These results suggest that (1) plants living in the more stressful sites are more symmetrical, (2) the more symmetrical plants respond less to yearly variations in drought stress, and (3) the response to yearly variations in drought depend on the climatic conditions in which a tree is living</style></abstract></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%">Infante, J M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Garcia-Laureano, R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Merino, J</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Morphological and physiological response of two populations of Quercus ilex L. to SO2 fumigation</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PHYTON-ANNALES REI BOTANICAE</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">air pollution</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean ecosystems</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Populations</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sulfur Dioxide</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2002</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">FERDINAND BERGER SOEHNE</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">WIENER STRASSE 21-23, A-3580 HORN, AUSTRIA</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">42</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">73-81</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex L., is the predominant evergreen schlerophyllous tree in the Mediterranean landscape of the Iberian Peninsula. Fruit acorns were collected in two populations located in the center (southern Spain) and at the northern border (northern Spain; a distance of 800 km) of the distribution area of Quercus ilex. One-month-old potted plants were grown for 130 days to a high SO2 concentration (0.23 ppm, 14 h d(-1)) under controlled climate conditions. Both northern and southern plants underwent a significant decrease in growth rate as a consequence of the treatment. Even so, plants appear to be quite resistant to SO2 compared with either more temperate or more productive species. The southern population was more sensitive to the treatment, as reflected by the bigger decrease in both growth and photosynthetic rates. Differences in resistance appear to be related to the biogeographic origin of the populations studied, which underlines the importance of biogeographic aspects in studies of resistance to air pollutants.</style></abstract></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%">Fischbach, Robert Josef</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Staudt, Michael</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zimmer, Ina</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rambal, Serge</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Schnitzler, Jörg-Peter</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Seasonal pattern of monoterpene synthase activities in leaves of the evergreen tree Quercus ilex</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Physiologia Plantarum</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">monoterpene emissions</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">monoterpene synthase activities</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">seasonal patterns (voyant)</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2002</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2002///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://dx.doi.org/10.1034/j.1399-3054.2002.1140304.xhttp://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12060257</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">114</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">354 - 360</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Monoterpene synthase activities were measured in current year and 1-year-old leaves of holm oak (Quercus ilex L.).

Pathogenicity tests were conducted using 1 year-old healthy plants of cork oak, holm oak and Aleppo pine. Isolates of the three Phytophthora species were pathogenic to the three host species, inducing root rot and plant death.

The authors suggest the foundation of a biosphere reserve in Cuatro Lugares as a framework for a sustainable development of the dehesas.</style></abstract></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%">Infante, Juan Manuel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mauchamp, André</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fernández-Alés, Rocío</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Joffre, Richard</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rambal, Serge</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Within-tree variation in transpiration in isolated evergreen oak trees: evidence in support of the pipe model theory</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tree Physiology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dehesa</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">oak savannah</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">sap flow den- sity</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">water use</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2001</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">21</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">409-414</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Within-tree variation in sap flow density (SFD) was measured in two isolated evergreen oak (Quercus ilex L.) trees growing in an oak savannah (dehesa) in southwest Spain. Sap flow was estimated by the constant heating method. Three sensors were installed in the trunk of each tree in three orientations: northeast (NE), northwest (NW) and south (S). Sap flow density was monitored continuously from May 18 to September 27, 1993. Daily values of SFD ranged between 500 and 4500 mm3 mm−2 day−1. There were significant differences in SFD between orientations; SFD was higher in the NE and NW orientations than in the S orientation. These differences were noted on both a daily and seasonal time scale, and were less pronounced on cloudy days and at the end of the drought period, when SFD was relatively low. Our results support the idea that branches of trees can be viewed as a collection of small independent plants.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/treephys/21.6.409</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/treephys/21.6.409</style></research-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%">Abdullah, S.

Methodological differences among countries accounted for &gt;30% of the variation in defoliation. Nevertheless, crown condition was found to vary naturally with tree age, altitude, drought stress and, most likely, also pathogenic fungi and insects. Signiﬁcant impacts of air pollution (speciﬁcally ozone but also NOx , SOx and acid deposition) were found at regional levels in parts of central Europe, particularly for deciduous species. Impacts seemed less signiﬁcant for conifers, especially for spruce, but this might be affected by confounding effects or strong correlations between (a harsh) climate and (low) atmospheric deposition in the area where spruce predominates. National studies indicate that ozone and acid deposition can have a signiﬁcant effect on the defoliation of spruce as well. We conclude that while forest condition varies naturally, continued emissions will contribute further to forest decline in the long term.</style></abstract></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%">Bergero, R.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Perotto, S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Girlanda, M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vidano, G.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Luppi, a M.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ericoid mycorrhizal fungi are common root associates of a Mediterranean ectomycorrhizal plant (Quercus ilex)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Molecular Ecology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DNA</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ectomycorrhizas</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Erica arborea</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ericoid fungi</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">fungi</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fungi: genetics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fungi: isolation &amp; purification</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fungi: physiology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Genetic</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean ecosystem</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean Region</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Molecular Sequence Data</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Diseases</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Diseases: microbiology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Roots</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Roots: microbiology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Polymorphism</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Restriction Fragment Length</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ribosomal Spacer</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Trees</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Trees: microbiology</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2000</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2000///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11050558http://dx.doi.org/10.1046/j.1365-294x.2000.01059.x</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1639 - 1649</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mycorrhiza samples of neighbouring Quercus ilex and Erica arborea plants collected in a postcutting habitat were processed to see whether plants differing in mycorrhizal status harbour the same root endophytes.

These results indicate that ericoid mycorrhizal fungi associate with ectomycorrhizal roots, and the ecological significance of this finding is discussed.</style></abstract><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11050558</style></accession-num></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%">Bartolomé, J.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Franch, J.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Grazing alone is not enough to maintain landscape diversity in the Montseny Biosphere Reserve</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Agriculture, Ecosystems &amp; Environment</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">calluna vulgaris</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Erica arborea</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">mediterranean rangeland</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">small ruminants</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2000</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2000///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0167880999000869http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0167880999000869</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">77</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">267 - 273</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Conservative land-use over the past few decades has converted the Montseny Biosphere Reserve (Spain) from the original open, patchy landscape to almost continuous woodland.

The gas exchange trend was monitored during the year: photosynthetic activity (A net) reached the highest average rates in early spring and autumn (12.5 µmol m-2s-1 was the absolute maximum A net measured) and the lowest rates were monitored in the middle of June. There was a good correlation (r = 0.72) between A net and g s (A net = 4.1246 ln g s + 4316; P &lt; 0.01), indicating that stomatal control of CO2 diffusion plays an important role in controlling photosynthetic activity. Leaf temperature allowing the highest photosynthetic and stomatal conductance rates of Quercus ilex were in the range 17.5 ? 29°C. A net and gs dropped below half its maximum value when leaf temperatures were below 11.5°C and above 35.7°C. Transpiration rates (E) were strongly related to leaf temperature; E increased as leaf temperature increased and the highest E rates were monitored in June, despite a 46% decrease in g s. Leaf water loss from transpiration, during the drought period, could result in leaf water stress which would exacerbate heat effects on photosynthesis. During summer, the increase in leaf temperatures decreased g s which in turn decreased A net. Consequently, stomatal control in Quercus ilex may be considered as an adaptive strategy during drought.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">doi: 10.1080/11263500012331350295</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">doi: 10.1080/11263500012331350295</style></research-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%">Fleck, I</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Aranda, X</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">El Omari, B</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Permanyer, J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Abadía, A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hogan, K P</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Light energy dissipation in Quercus ilex resprouts after fire</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AUSTRALIAN JOURNAL OF PLANT PHYSIOLOGY</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">DTT</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">photochemical sink</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2000</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">C S I R O PUBLISHING</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">150 OXFORD ST, PO BOX 1139, COLLINGWOOD, VICTORIA 3066, AUSTRALIA</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">27</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">129-137</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holm oak (Quercus ilex) plants that have resprouted after fire have higher photosynthetic capacity than control plants in intact vegetation. In this study, branches detached from forest plants were fed with dithiothreitol (DTT) in the laboratory to inhibit zeaxanthin production and thus reduce the dissipation of light energy as heat. This allowed us to test the hypothesis that plants with greater photosynthetic capacity, and therefore greater photochemical sink strength, would suffer a lower reduction in photochemical efficiency under stressful conditions. Greater rates of photochemistry in resprouts, which exhibited increased photosynthesis (A), leaf conductance (g), quantum yield of PSII (Delta F/F-m') and photochemical quenching (q(P)), were related to lower non-radiative dissipation of excess energy as indicated by 1 - (F-v'/F-m'). However, the fraction of energy remaining of that used in photochemistry or dissipated thermally in the PSII antennae was similar in resprouts and controls and was not affected by DTT, especially under high irradiance conditions.

In this study, branches detached from forest plants were fed with dithiothreitol (DTT) in the laboratory to inhibit zeaxanthin production and thus reduce the dissipation of light energy as heat. This allowed us to test the hypothesis that plants with greater photosynthetic capacity, and therefore greater photochemical sink strength, would suffer a lower reduction in photochemical efficiency under stressful conditions. Greater rates of photochemistry in resprouts, which exhibited increased photosynthesis (A), leaf conductance (g), quantum yield of PSII (Delta F/F-m') and photochemical quenching (q(P)), were related to lower non-radiative dissipation of excess energy as indicated by 1 - (F-v'/F-m'). However, the fraction of energy remaining of that used in photochemistry or dissipated thermally in the PSII antennae was similar in resprouts and controls and was not affected by DTT, especially under high irradiance conditions. Zeaxanthin involvement in PSII protection operated in resprouts and controls since DTT induced the same kind of response (NPQ decrease) but was lower in resprouts. These chlorophyll fluorescence results suggest the participation of some additional mechanism for energy dissipation. Light capture characteristics of the photosynthetic apparatus did not differ between resprouts and controls, and leaf age did not play a determining role in the differences observed.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APSAPSThe following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;pub-location: 150 OXFORD ST, PO BOX 1139, COLLINGWOOD, VICTORIA 3066, AUSTRALIA&lt;br/&gt;publisher: C S I R O PUBLISHING</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%">Angelis, Paolo De</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Litter quality and decomposition in a CO2-enriched Mediterranean forest ecosystem</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant and Soil</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">decomposition rates</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">elevated [CO2]</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">litter quality</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">mediterranean forest</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2000</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">224</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">31-41</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Six large open top chambers were installed to test the effect of atmospheric [CO2] enrichment on clumps of natural Mediterranean vegetation starting from early spring 1992.

E and in vivo chlorophyll fluorescence were monitored February 1996–February 1997 in Quercus ilex plants growing in the climax area Rome and . in the Garda lake region. Photosynthetic activity is an appropriate temperature-dependent functional trait linked to plant metabolism and performance. We employed photosynthesis as a stress temperature indicator. Regression analysis showed that in such regional climatic conditions, net photosynthetic rates were primarily correlated with temperature. The introduction of rainfall in the function did not significantly improve the theoretical prevision, in the range of temperature and rainfall analysed. The favourable leaf temperatures allowing 90–100% of the highest photosynthetic rates were 14–288C, decreasing over 50% when leaf temperature were respectively below 68C and over 378C: the low potential photochemical efficiency of 0.71 PSII Fv . rFm at Castelporziano during summer, confirmed the state of stress. Transpiration rates remained high with the increase of leaf temperature in summer, in spite of the 46% decrease of stomatal conductance. Nevertheless, this decrease allowed the maintenance of acceptable Pn rates in stressful conditions. The potential productivity of Q. ilex lied on high peaks of activity during periods of lower evaporative demand and a rapid stomatal response to an increase in air temperature and soil water deficit. Although it is difficult to forecast Q. ilex productivity and plant structure, we may hypothesize its future presence in the Mediterranean Basin by the capability of vegetative activity in a wide range of temperatures, the high stomatal control in stressful conditions, the high plasticity index and water use efficiency WUE .</style></abstract></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%">Prasad, M.

Thirteen individuals were followed by radio-tracking during two years. The study area, a supramediterranean habitat dominated by Quercus humilis and Quercus ilex covered 40,000 ha. The instrumented deer were located daily during the three first months, the longest time required to settle on a home range, and once a week thereafter. These data allowed us to calculate survival rates and size of home ranges. The mean survival rate during the first year after the introduction was 85 %. Except for one adult male and one adult female, all radio-equipped deer established their home range within 3 km of the release site. The time required for definitive establishment on a home range varied from 45 to 85 days after release. The mean area prospected before settling on a home range was greater for adults (n = 5) than for juveniles (n = 6) (2,240 ha vs. 478 ha). Conversely, the mean home range size after the period of prospection was greater for juveniles (n = 6) than for adults (n = 4) (823 ha vs. 342 ha). If capture, transport and release are carried out under good conditions, the roe deer can adapt to the Mediterranean climate and habitat.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></research-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%">Filella, Iolanda</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Penuelas, Josep</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Altitudinal differences in UV absorbance, UV reflectance and related morphological traits of Quercus ilex and Rhododendron ferrugineum in the Mediterranean region</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Ecology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Altitude</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">carotenoids/chlorophyll a ratio</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaf hair density</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean Region</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ndpi</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">pri</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">rhododendron ferrugineum</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">slw</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Thickness</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">uv absorbing compounds</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">uv reflectance</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1999</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">145</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">157-165</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">We studied the variations in different physiological parameters associated with UV-B radiation defense: UV-B radiation absorbance, UV-visible spectral reﬂectance, carotenoids concentration, leaf thickness, SLW (speciﬁc leaf weigth) and trichome density in Quercus ilex growing at 200 and 1200 m and Rhododendron ferrugineum growing at 2200 m. We examined the role of these parameters as protection mechanisms in an altitudinal gradient of increasing UV radiation in northern Catalonia and in sun and shade leaves.

Sun leaves of R. ferrugineum presented concentrations three times higher than those of Q. ilex. Reﬂectance ranged between 5% (in the region 300–400 nm) and 12% (in the region 280–300 nm). The variation of reﬂectance with altitude followed an inverse trend respect to absorbance in the 280–300 nm region, with higher values the lower the altitude, but in the 300–400 nm region, reﬂectance of the lower site was the lowest.

During the breeding period, an asymmetric flow of individuals takes place from the helm-oak forest to the pine plantation. This flow is favoured by nestboxes where Blue tits can lay their eggs. During the winter, a large part of the population moves back from the pine plantation to the helm-oak forest. Breeding pair density was much higher in the helm-oak forest than in the pine plantation. This may bt accounted for by the poorer quality of the resources available in the pine plantation which birds try to compensate for with larger breeding territories. Breeding density and most life-history traits examined (timing of breeding, clutch site, egg size, number of fledglings and fledgling weight) were similar in both habitats, as a result of the phenotypic plasticity of this species. Although breeding success was similar in both habitats, recruitment of new individuals per unit area was higher in the helm-oak forest. The consequences of pine plantations, as a form of forestry management, on species conservation is discussed.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></research-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%">Martins, C.

The trees are viewed as an integrated part of the system, and as a result are planted, managed, and regularly pruned. Palynological and historical evidence of the manipulation of initial ecosystems by man to obtain a savannah-like ecosystem is presented. The ecological functions of the tree are detailed using results obtained at two complementary scales. At the local scale, strong soil structural differences and functional differences in water budget and patterns of water use are observed under and outside the tree canopy. Using the concept of ecosystem mimicry, the two coexistent components of dehesas can be compared to two distant stages of a secondary succession characterised by very different behaviours. At the regional scale, evidence of relationships between tree density and mean annual precipitation over more than 5000 km2 suggests that the structure of these man-made agroecosystems have adjusted over the long-term and correspond to an optimal functional equilibrium based on the hydrological equilibrium hypothesis. Finally, the future of dehesas in the face of contemporary exogenous threats of economic and global environmental origin is discussed. 1.

Tannic acid, Q. ilex and P. granatum extracts gave 100% precipitation of ovine haemoglobin in vitro, whereas A. herba-alba extract was devoid of any protein-binding property. Oral administration of these plant extracts or tannic acid induced a significant decrease in gastric lesions (47.7%–76%). The observed protection was more pronounced when the test solution was given at the same time with ethanol, except for Q. ilex extract. The acid content of the stomach was significantly increased by P. granatum (368%) and A. herba-alba (251%) extracts prepared in ethanol. It is suggested that monomeric and polymeric polyphenols can strengthen the gastric mucosal barrier.

This paper describes results obtained with fresh leaves of holm oak (Quercus ilex), an evergreen oak that is widely distributed from mesic to xeric habitats in the Mediterranean. Fresh leaves (560) were collected over 3 yr at six different sites, from the top to the bottom of the canopy. The reflectance of each leaf was obtained within 1 h of sampling with an NIRSystems 6500 spectrophotometer over the range 400–2500 nm. LMA was determined for all samples; biochemical and anatomical measurements were conducted over representative subsample populations of 92 and 87 leaves, respectively. Stepwise regression calibrations and partial least squares (PLS) calibrations were developed and compared with different spectral regions and mathematical treatments. Calibration equations had high coefficients of determination (r2 ranging from 0.94 for nitrogen to 0.98 for LMA and tissue thickness). The PLS regressions gave better results than stepwise regressions for all parameters studied. Compared with regressions calculated on raw spectral data, calculations on second derivatives of spectra improved results in all cases. The use of scatter corrections also improved results. These results show that visible and near-infra red reflectance can be used for accurately predicting anatomical parameters and the nitrogen concentration of fresh holm oak leaves. The results support the suggestion that high spectral resolution imaging spectrometry can be a useful tool for assessing functional processes in forest ecosystems.</style></abstract></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%">Gabriel, R.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Schäfer, L.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gerlach, C.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Factors controlling the emissions of volatile organic acids from leaves of Quercus ilex L.(Holm oak)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Atmospheric Environment</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">aba abscisic acid</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gas exchange</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">organic acids</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1999</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1999///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1352231098003690</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">33</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1347 - 1355</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Direct emissions and emission of precursor compounds of acetic and formic acid from higher plants are a signiÞcant source of these acids in the atmosphere.

Besides the pursuit of knowledge, two major reasons can be put forward. First, holm oak forests are a dominant type of vegetation in a transition zone between temperate forests, mostly dominated by deciduous trees and the scrublands (maquis, chaparral, phrygana, etc.) that herald the tropical regions. In this transition zone, plants have had to cope with a selective pressure resulting from a double stress - winter cold and summer drought - that has determined their morphological and ecophysiological evolutive responses. One of our aims is to provide an insight into the features of holm oak as related to environmental factors and in comparison with other tree types (broadleaved deciduous hardwoods, needle-leafed conifers)</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></research-notes><label><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Geral</style></label></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%">Gratani, L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bombelli, A</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Leaf anatomy, inclination, and gas exchange relationships in evergreen sclerophyllous and drought semideciduous shrub species</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PHOTOSYNTHETICA</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">cistus incanus</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaf inclination</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaf life-span</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaf mass/area ratio</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaf thickness</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">net photosynthetic rate</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phillyrea latifolia</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">transpiration rate</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1999</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">INST EXPERIMENTAL BOTANY, ACAD SCI CZECH REPUBLIC</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">NA KARLOVCE 1A, PRAGUE 6 CS-160 00, CZECH REPUBLIC</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">37</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">573-585</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">There are significant differences in leaf life-span among evergreen sclerophyllous species and drought semideciduous species growing in the Mediterranean maquis. Cistus incanus, which has a leaf life-span of four-eight months, was characterised by the highest net photosynthetic rates (PN). while Quercus ilex and Phillyrea latifolia, which maintain their leaves two-three and two-four years, respectively, had a lower PN- The longer leaf life-span of the two evergreen sclerophyllous species may be justified to cover the high production costs of leaf protective structures such as cuticle, hairs, and sclereids: cuticle and hairs screen radiation penetrating into the more sensitive tissues, and sclereids have a light-guiding function. Q. ilex and P. latifolia have the highest leaf mass/area ratio (LMA = 209 g m(-2)) and a mesophyll leaf density (2065 cells per mm(2) of leaf cross section area) about two times higher than C. incanus. In the typical evergreen sclerophyllous species the steepest leaf inclination (alpha = 56 degrees) reduces 42% of radiation absorption, resulting in a reduced physiological stress at leaf level, particularly in summer. C. incanus, because of its low leaf life-span, requires a lower leaf investment in leaf protective structures. It exhibits a drastic reduction of winter leaves just before summer drought, replacing them with smaller folded leaves. The lower leaf inclination (alpha = 44 degrees) and the lower LMA (119 g m(-2)) of C. incanus complement photosynthetic performance. Water use efficiency (WUE) showed the same trend in Q. ilex, P. latifolia, and C. incanus, decreasing 60% from spring to summer, due to the combined effects of decreased CO2 uptake and increased transpirational water loss.</style></abstract></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%">Longán, Angels</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gómez-Bolea, Antonio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biologia, Dep</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Unitat, Vegetal</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biologia, Fac</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barcelona, Unív</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Líquenes y hongos liquenícolas epífitos de Quercus ilex L., poco conocidos en encinares de Cataluña (España)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cryptogamie Mycologie</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Catalonia</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">epiphytes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">lichens</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1999</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">20</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">49-55</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">We present here 13 species of lichens and 3 of lichenicolous fungi found on Quercus ilex L. in evergreen oak forests of Catalonia.

Increasing [CO2 ] stimulated photosynthesis and leaf dark respiration regardless of N treatment. The increase in photosynthesis and leaf dark respiration was associated with a moderate reduction in stomatal conductance, resulting in enhanced instantaneous transpiration efficiency in leaves of seedlings in CO2 enriched air. Elevated [CO2] increased biomass production only in the high-N treatment. Fine root/foliage mass ratio decreased with high-N treatment and increased with CO2 enrichment. There was evidence of a preferential shift of biomass to below-ground tissue at a low level of nutrient addition. Specific leaf area (SLA) and leaf area ratio (LAR) decreased significantly in leaves of seedlings grown in elevated [CO2] irrespective of N treatment. Leaf N concentration decreased significantly in elevated [CO2] irrespective of N treatment. As a result of patterns of N and carbon concentrations, C/N ratio generally increased with elevated [CO2] treatment and decreased with high nutrient supply. Afternoon starch concentrations in leaves did not increase significantly with increasing [CO2], as was the case for morning starch concentrations at low-N supply. Starch concentrations in leaves, stem and roots increased with elevated [CO2] and decreased with nutrient addition. The concentration of sugars was not significantly affected by either CO 2 or N treatments. Total foliar phenolic concentrations decreased in seedlings grown in elevated [CO 2] irrespective of N treatment, while nutrient supply had less of an effect. We conclude that available soil N will be a major controlling resource for the establishment and growth of Q. ilex in rising [CO 2] conditions</style></abstract></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%">García-Plazaola, Josá I.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Artetxe, Unai</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Duñabeitia, Miren K.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Becerril, Josá M.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Role of Photoprotective Systems of Holm-Oak (Quercus ilex) in the Adaptation to Winter Conditions</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Plant Physiology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">antioxidants</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">chilling</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean evergreens</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">sun/shade</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">xanthophylls</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1999</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1999///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0176161799800649</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">155</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">625 - 630</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holm-oak (Quercus ilex L.) is a Mediterranean evergreen sclerophyllous species adapted to a wide range of environmental conditions and consequently its leaves must be able to withstand variable stresses.

Even though stomatal closure explained most of the diurnal variation in carbon assimilation along the summer, a decline in the photochemical yield of photosystem II (F′v/F′m) also occurred, as a result of an excess of intercepted solar radiation when carbon assimilation is limited by stomatal closure due to high vapour pressure deficits and/or soil water deficits. These changes were accompanied by the conversion of violaxanthin to antheraxanthin and zeaxanthin which were correlated with thermal dissipation of excess photon energy. In spite of a common general response, differences between species were observed -Olea europaea, which is a slow-growing tree, had the lowest net photosynthetic rates, the highest proportion of carotenoids in relation to chlorophyll and the highest rates of de-epoxidation of violaxanthin. This enabled a large thermal dissipation of the excess intercepted radiation but led to rather small values of light utilisation for photochemistry (ca 20%). In contrast, in E. globulus, a fast-growing tree, photosynthetic rates were the highest, thermal dissipation of absorbed radiation the lowest and maximal values of light utilisation for photochemistry reached ca 50%. The two Quercus species exhibited an intermediate response. A high degree of co-ordination is apparent between stomatal behaviour, photosynthetic capacity and photoprotection mechanisms.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>3</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">López, B</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sabate, S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ruiz, I</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gracia, C</style></author></authors><secondary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mohren, GMJ and Kramer, K and Sabate, S</style></author></secondary-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Effects of elevated CO2 and decreased water availability on holm-oak seedlings in controlled environment chambers</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">IMPACTS OF GLOBAL CHANGE ON TREE PHYSIOLOGY AND FOREST ECOSYSTEMS</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">CO2</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">controlled environment chambers</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1998</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SPRINGER</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PO BOX 17, 3300 AA DORDRECHT, NETHERLANDS</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">52</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">125-133</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">0-7923-4921-0</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">In Mediterranean ecosystems, water is an important limiting factor for&lt;br/&gt;plant growth. In addition to the increase in atmospheric CO2, some&lt;br/&gt;models predict increased drought in Mediterranean areas as a consequence&lt;br/&gt;of global change. Thus, to determine how increased atmospheric CO2&lt;br/&gt;interacts with increased water stress and affects Mediterranean plant&lt;br/&gt;growth is an important achievement. The present study analyses how helm&lt;br/&gt;oak (Quercus ilex L.) seedlings are affected by both elevated CO2 and&lt;br/&gt;increased water stress. The CO2 concentrations were supplied in&lt;br/&gt;controlled environment chambers (350 and 500 ppm CO2), and water stress&lt;br/&gt;was performed according to a Mediterranean pattern (Potential&lt;br/&gt;Evapotranspiration to Rainfall ratio). The increased water stress was&lt;br/&gt;attained by watering half of the Mediterranean reference pattern.&lt;br/&gt;Results show that the positive effects of elevated CO2 on photosynthesis&lt;br/&gt;and growth are counteracted by increased water stress.</style></abstract></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%">López, Bernat</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SABATE, Santiago</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gracia, Carlos</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fine roots dynamics in a Mediterranean forest: effects of drought and stem density</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tree Physiology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">holm oaks</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">minirhizotron</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Soil water content</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">thinning</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1998</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">18</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">601-606</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Summer drought is a characteristic trait of Mediterranean climates and can limit primary production. The holm oak (Quercus ilex L.) forest at the Prades Experimental Complex of Catchments (PECC, NE Spain) was managed by clearcutting until the 1950s. As a result of this practice, the forest has a high density (13000 stems ha−1) that is causing growth stagnation and intense competition for water. A thinning experiment was conducted to release resources, reduce stem competition and improve forest productivity. Minirhizotrons were installed in two plots in each of the thinned and control stands and fine root dynamics quantified to a soil depth of 60 cm over a 2-year period (June 1994–May 1996).Soil water content was higher and soil water penetrated deeper in the soil (30–50 cm) in the thinned plots than in the control plots. In the control plots, soil temperature did not vary substantially with depth (mean = 11.65 °C), whereas soil temperature was higher in shallow horizons compared with deep horizons in the thinned plots. Mean soil temperature was one degree higher in the thinned plots than in the control plots (12.9 versus 11.9 °C). There were always more roots in the top 20 cm of soil in thinned plots than in control plots. In the thinned plots, more than 50% of root density (root no. cm−2) was located in the top 20 cm of soil, whereas root density never reached 50% in the 0–20 cm soil layer of the control plots. Roots longevity varied from 35 to 471 days, and there were significant differences between soil depths. Root longevity was greater in the control plots than in the thinned plots.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/treephys/18.8-9.601</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/treephys/18.8-9.601</style></research-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%">Robin, Cécile</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Desprez-Loustau, Marie-Laure</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Capron, Gilles</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Delatour, Claude</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">First record of Phytophthora cinnamomi on cork and holm oaks in France and evidence of pathogenicity</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ann.

Twenty-four sites were chosen. Tree decline severity and other characteristics were assessed. Subplots of four trees were more fully investigated: relative soil water content was assessed and Phytophthora isolation was attempted from soil samples. When cortical lesions were observed, isolations were carried out from infected tissues. In six cork oak and one holm oak sites, P. cinnamomi was isolated from soil or trunks. All the different isolates obtained in 1995 were aggressive on cork and holm oaks. However, these species were less susceptible than Castanea sativa and more susceptible than Q. rubra. These results confirm the pathogenicity of P. cinnamomi towards Mediterranean oaks and its possible involvement in the decline process of these species.</style></abstract></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%">Filella, I</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Llusia, J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Piñol, J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Penuelas, J</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Leaf gas exchange and ﬂuorescence of Phillyrea latifolia, Pistacia lentiscus and Quercus ilex saplings in severe drought and high temperature conditions</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Environmental and Experimental Botany</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Drought</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">hF/F’m</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phillyrea latifolia</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">photosynthetic rate</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pistacia lentiscus</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stomatal conductance</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1998</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">39</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">213-220</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Saplings of Phillyrea latifolia, Pistacia lentiscus and Quercus ilex were witheld watering for 7 days, followed by reirrigation.

We examined the light and temperature responses of individual monoterpenes emitted from leaves under various conditions, the effect of heat stress on emissions, and the emission-onset during leaf development. Emission rate increased 10-fold during leaf growth, with slight changes in the composition. At 30 °C and saturating light, the monoterpene emission rate from mature leaves averaged 4·1 nmol m–2 s–1, of which α-pinene, sabinene and β-pinene accounted for 85%. The light dependence of emission was similar for all monoterpenes: it resembled the light saturation curve of CO2 assimilation, although monoterpene emission continued in the dark. Temperature dependence differed among emitted compounds: most of them exhibited an exponential increase up to 35 °C, a maximum at 42 °C, and a slight decline at higher temperatures. However, the two acyclic isomers cis-β-ocimene and trans-β-ocimene were hardly detected below 35 °C, but their emission rates increased above this temperature as the emission rates of other compounds fell, so that total emission of monoterpenes exponentially increased from 5 to 45 °C. The ratio between ocimene isomers and other compounds increased with both absolute temperature and time of heat exposure. The light dependence of emission was insensitive to the temperature at which it was measured, and vice versa the temperature dependence was insensitive to the light regime. The results demonstrated that none of the models currently applied to simulate isoprene or monoterpene emissions correctly predicts the short-term effects of light and temperature on Q. ilex emissions. The percentage of fixed carbon lost immediately as monoterpenes ranged between 0·1 and 6·0% depending on temperature, but rose up to 20% when leaves were continuously exposed to temperatures between 40 and 45 °C.</style></abstract></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%">Paoletti, E</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nourrisson, G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Garrec, J P</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Raschi, A</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Modifications of the leaf surface structures of Quercus ilex L. in open, naturally CO2-enriched environments</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant, Cell &amp; Environment</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Elevated CO2</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaf wettability</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">natural CO2 spring</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">stomatal frequency</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">wax amount</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1998</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Blackwell Publishing Ltd</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">21</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1071-1075</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Two Italian CO2 springs allowed us to study the long-term effect of a 350–2600 μmol mol–1 increase in CO2 concentrations on the surface structures of leaves of Quercus ilex L.

Fumigation with monoterpenes reduced the decline of photosynthesis, photorespiration and monoterpene emission found in non-fumigated leaves exposed to high temperatures. It also substantially increased respiration when photosynthesis and photorespiration were inhibited by low O2 and CO2-free air. These results indicate that, as previously reported for isoprene, monoterpenes may help plants cope with heat stress. Monoterpenes may enhance membrane stability, thus providing a rather non-specific protection of photosynthetic and respiratory processes. Monoterpene emission was maximal at a temperature of 35 °C and was inhibited at higher temperatures. This is likely to be the result of the temperature dependency of the enzymes involved in monoterpene synthesis. In contrast to other monoterpenes, cis- and trans-β-ocimene did not respond to exposure to high temperatures. Cis-β-ocimene also did not respond to low O2 or to fumigation.

Fumigation with monoterpenes reduced the decline of photosynthesis, photorespiration and monoterpene emission found in non-fumigated leaves exposed to high temperatures. It also substantially increased respiration when photosynthesis and photorespiration were inhibited by low O2 and CO2-free air. These results indicate that, as previously reported for isoprene, monoterpenes may help plants cope with heat stress. Monoterpenes may enhance membrane stability, thus providing a rather non-specific protection of photosynthetic and respiratory processes. Monoterpene emission was maximal at a temperature of 35 °C and was inhibited at higher temperatures. This is likely to be the result of the temperature dependency of the enzymes involved in monoterpene synthesis. In contrast to other monoterpenes, cis- and trans-β-ocimene did not respond to exposure to high temperatures. Cis-β-ocimene also did not respond to low O2 or to fumigation. These results indicate that cis and trans-β-ocimene may have a different pathway of formation that probably does not involve enzymatic synthesis.</style></abstract></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%">Grossoni, P.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bussotti, F.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tani, C.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gravano, E.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Morpho-anatomical aterations in leaves of Fagus sylvatica L. and Quercus ilex L. in different environmental stress condition</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chemosphere</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fagus sylvatica</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">foliar structure</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">xeric conditions (voyant)</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1998</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1998///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0045653597101485</style></url></web-urls></urls><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">919 - 924</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">By means of anatomical and foliar structure observations, this paper examines the ecological behaviour of two different species of broadleaf (a mesophile one, beech, and a xerophile one, holm-oak), under different conditions of water supply.

Hairs of all developmental stages were treated with specific inducers of polyphenol fluorescence, and the bright yellow-green fluorescence of individual hairs was monitored with epifluorescence microscopy. During the early ontogenetic stages, bright fluorescence was emitted from the cytoplasm of the cells composing tie multicellular shield of the scales of O. europaea. Transmission electron micrographs of the same stages showed that these cells possessed poor vacuolation and thin cell walls. The nucleus of these cells may be protected against ultraviolet-B radiation damage. The progressive vacuolation that occurred during maturation was followed by a shifting of the bright green-yellow fluorescence from the perinuclear region and the cytoplasm to the cell walls. The same trends were observed during the development of the nonglandular stellate hairs of Quercus ilex, in which maturation was also accompanied by a considerable secondary thickening of the cell walls. Despite the differences in morphology, high concentrations of polyphenol compounds are initially located mainly in the cytoplasm of the developing nonglandular hairs, and their deposition on the cell walls rakes place during the secondary cell wall thickening. These structural changes during the development of the leaf hairs make them a very effective barrier against abiotic (UV-B radiation) and probably biotic (pathogenic) stresses.</style></abstract></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%">Labhar, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tanghe, M</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Recent evolution of the Jbel Hebri forest (Western Middle Atlas, Morocco)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">BELGIAN JOURNAL OF BOTANY</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">areial photograph</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">forest evolution</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">photogrammetry</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">vegetation structure</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1998</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SOC ROYAL BOTAN BELGIQUE</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">NIEUWELAAN 38, B-1860 MEISE, BELGIUM</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">131</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">13-22</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">This study deals with the different aspects of forest evolution on the Jbel Hebri mountain ranges. On the basis of a comparative aerial photograph analysis (1962 and 1987 missions) completed by photogrammetry and field observations, the vegetation structure and its succession stages have been recognized. Although the total forest area remains unchanged, the physiognomic stages of identified communities (Cedrus atlantica forest; Quercus rotundifolia forest; mixed forest with Cedrus atlantica and Quercus rotundifolia) show heterogenous evolution. Depending on species and forest components we note paradoxal evolutionary tendencies. Systematic degradation due to harvesting and resource overuse is locally observed beside regenerated and densified parts. Therefore, the system dynamics reflects the locally variable factors such as soil hydrology and human impact.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></research-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%">Filho Teixeira, José</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Damesin, Claire</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rambal, Serge</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Joffre, Richard</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Retrieving leaf conductances from sap flows in a mixed Mediterranean woodland: a scaling exercise</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ann.

Quercus ilex type pollen and, to a lesser degree, other sclerophyllous elements (e.g. Olea and Phillyrea) have been documented during the Late-glacial in the majority of the sequences obtained in continental territories in the north of the Iberian peninsula, as well as in the eastern coastal/sub-coastal area in the Cantabric region. During the Late-glacial and the Holocene, sclerophyllous elements became widespread in many areas of the north Iberian peninsula (the Sil, Duero and Ebro depressions and the southernmost slopes of adjacent mountains), with the smallest pollinic representation of these taxa being for the most septentrional areas (coastal/sub-coastal territories and the northermost slopes of the Cantabrian-Atlantic Mountains). During these periods, there is no indication of the presence of Quercus ilex pollen in the northwestern territories, which would explain the absence of this species in the present-day landscape. Despite the widespread distribution that sclerophyllous elements have maintained during the last 16,000 years, they have never attained a predominant role in the landscape, having a smaller representation, both during hotter and colder phases, than deciduous forests, pine forests and mixed forests.</style></abstract></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%">Nardini, A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gullo, M A Lo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Salleo, S</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Seasonal changes of root hydraulic conductance (K RL) in four forest trees: an ecological interpretation</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Ecology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">continentality index</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fagus sylvatica</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus pubescens</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus suber</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">root hydraulic efficiency</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1998</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">139</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">81-90</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">This paper deals with the possibility of relating root hydraulic parameters to an ecological index describing the continentality/oceanicity of four forest trees. Root hydraulic conductance (KR) of seedlings of Fagus sylvatica L., Quercus ilex L., Quercus suber L. and Quercus pubescens Willd. was measured in May, August and November 1996. KR was calculated in terms of the relation of the water ﬂow through intact root systems in situ measured with the pressure chamber, and the pressure driving the ﬂow. The sufﬁciency of the root system to supply the foliage was estimated by dividing KR by the seedlings leaf surface area (AL) thus obtaining KRL. In the spring, KRL was largest in F. sylvatica and smallest in Q. pubescens with intermediate values recorded in Q. ilex and Q. suber. All the species studied showed a large decline in KRL just prior to the winter rest except for Q. suber which mantained KRL approximately constant through the period of study. In most cases, KRL changed in accordance with analogous changes in the ﬂow. When the total seedlings’ leaf surface area (AL) was plotted versus KRL, it appeared that KRL of Q. pubescens increased with AL, proportionally, while KRL of F. sylvatica was inversely related to AL. This, together with the largest KRL recorded in the summer in Q. pubescens, was interpreted as advantageous to this species (which is adapted to semi-arid environments) in that: (a) roots could supply water to foliage efﬁciently even during the adverse season and (b) the foliage growth could be sustained even in summer. No statistically signiﬁcant relation of KRL to the continentality index calculated for the four species studied on the basis of their European distribution, was found to exist. Nonetheless, our data appear to be encouraging for future research aimed at better interpreting the typical distribution areas of plant species.</style></abstract></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%">Kesselmeier, J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bode, K</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Schafer, L</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Simultaneous field measurements of terpene and isoprene emissions from two dominant Mediterranean oak species in relation to a north American species</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Atmospheric Environment</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">isoprene</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Monoterpenes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">oak</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">quercus agrifolia</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus pubescens</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">volatile biogenic hydrocarbons</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1998</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">32</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1947-1953</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ÐWe investigated the emission of monoterpenes and isoprene from tree species growing at a site near Montpellier (South France). We compared the emission pattern and behaviour of two important oak species representative of the Mediterranean ecosystem, namely, Quercus ilex (Holm oak), a strong monoter- pene emitter, and Quercus pubescens (White oak), a strong isoprene emitter by measuring the two species growing side by side simultaneously. Additionally, we included a Californian oak species Quercus agrifolia (Coast Live Oak), which is anatomically and morphologically comparable with Quercus ilex. The data show that Live Oak and Holm oak though they appear identical, di¤er as far as the emission of terpenoids is concerned, emitting isoprene or terpenes, respectively. The isoprene emitting White oak and the monoter- pene emitting Holm oak react identically to the same environmental conditions, ßuctuating light and temperature, indicating that close metabolic pathways are involved in the actual emission of the C5 and C10 compounds from these two species, as seen under Þeld conditions.

We used the heat-pulse velocity technique to estimate transpirational water use of trees during a 5 month period from June to November 1994. At the end of sap flow measurements, the trees were harvested, and the foliage and sapwood area measured. A distinct environmental gradient exists between the two sites with higher atmospheric CO2 concentrations in the proximity of a natural CO2 spring. Trees at the spring site have been growing for generations in elevated atmospheric CO2 concentrations. At both sites, maximum leaf conductance was related to predawn shoot water potential. The effects of water deficits on water relations and whole-plant transpiration during the summer drought were severe. Leaf conductance and water potential recovered after major rainfall in September to predrought values. Sap flow, leaf conductance and predawn water potential decreased in parallel with increases in hydraulic resistance, reaching a minimum in mid-summer. These relationships are in agreement with the hypothesis of the stomatal control of transpiration to prevent desiccation damage but also to avoid ‘runaway embolism’. Trees at the CO2 spring underwent less reduction in hydraulic resistance for a given value of predawn water potential. The decrease in leaf conductance caused by elevated CO2 was limited and tended to be less at high than at low atmospheric vapour pressure deficit. Mean (and diurnal) sap flux were consistently higher in the control site trees than in the CO2 spring trees. The degree of reduction in water use between the two sites varied among the summer periods. The control site trees had consistently higher sap flow at corresponding values of either sapwood cross-sectional area or foliage area. Larger trees displayed smaller differences than smaller trees, between the control and the CO2 spring trees. A strong association between foliage area and sapwood cross-sectional area was found in both the control and the CO2 spring trees, the latter supporting a smaller foliage area at the corresponding sapwood stem cross-sectional area. The specific leaf area (SLA) of the foliage was not influenced by site. The results are discussed in terms of the effects of elevated CO2 on plant water use at the organ and whole-tree scale.</style></abstract></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%">Gonzalez, J Mª.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ibariz, P</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Unevenaged coppice holm oak stands: silvicultural description</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest Systems</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Coppice stands</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">silviculture</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Unevenaged stands</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1998</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">95-108</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Uneven coppice stands of evergreen oak (Quercus ilex L.) of Gerona (NE Spain) are described. Three structurally different situations are analysed: close after silvicultural intervention, in the middle of two interventions and before cutting. Therefore 19 plots were selected in the area, obtaining dasometric and qualitative values in order to characterise traditional management. Positive tree selection of traditional management is proved, as well as a high percentage of trees of a good stem quality, particularly at dominant layer (33%). Liocourt constant values in these stands were determined: they change for every described situation (2.8-1.6; 1.2-2.6; 1.7-2.8). With these values, 45 types of uneven evergreen oak forests were modelized modifying initial density (900, 1100 and 1200 stems/ha) and q values (DC10: 2.5; 2.7; 2.8; DC&amp;gt;15: 1.5; 1.6; 1.7; 1.8; 1.9), while keeping maximum initial diameter (25 cm) and rotation (30 years). The comparison between these models don&amp;rsquo;t show significant differences independent from initial values. Using mean values obtained from the sample plots, a preliminary optimal equilibrium curve for uneven oak-coppice stands has been developed. Finally structural differences between those stands, traditional ones of Central Europe and uneven Pinus nigra forests of Pyrenees are upbright.</style></abstract></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%">Schwarz, A E</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Schwoerbel, J</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The aquatic processing of sclerophyllous and malacophyllous leaves on a Mediterranean island (Corsica) : spatial and temporal pattern</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Annales de Limnologie - International Journal of Limnology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">alnus glutinosa</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">decomposition</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaves</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">macroinvertebrates</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean ecosystem</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Temperature</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1997</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">33</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">107-119</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Leaves of two species, alder (Alnus glutinosa) and holm-oak (Quercus ilex), were exposed in bags of two mesh sizes in two climatically contrasting sites of a Corsican softwater stream. Leaves were incubated both in winter and in summer for about 6 months. The field experiment was designed to determine the influence of both spatial (climate) and temporal (season) variations of temperature, as well as differences in the chemical and physical properties of sclerophyilous and malacophyllous leaves, on leaf decomposition rates. Comparisons were made between leaves colonized by macroinvertebrates and leaves protected by finemesh. In winter and summer, holm-oak leaves were colonized much less by macroinvertebrates than alder leaves. Spatial and temporal differences in leaf litter processing were mainly dependent on three factors (i) the chemical and physical properties of the leaves, (ii) the abundance of macroinvertebrates in the sediment and (iii) the temperature. The climatical pattern of temperature had a greater influence than its seasonal pattern. In contrast with many other studies, abiotic factors dominated over biotic factors in this study.</style></abstract></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%">Panaiotis, C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Carcaillet, C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">M'Hamedi, M</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Determination of the natural mortality age of an holm oak ( Quercus ilex L.) stand in Corsica (Mediterranean Island)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Acta Oecologica</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Corsica</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dendrochronology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest structure</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">mediterranean forest</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">natural mortality</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">old forest</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1997</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">18</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">519-530</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Determination of old forest stand age and forestry history is problematic due to the difficulties which arise in obtaining core samples from trees. In the present paper, the natural mortality age and forestry history of a Corsican holm oak stand are estimated using the methods described below. Firstly, the correlation between stem age estimated from healthy stump counts in fellings and stem diameter is determined using a second order polynomial equation. Secondly, the distribution of stand diameter classes is analyzed by the BHATTACHARYA (1967) method. This method allows the identifica- tion of cohorts as well as the estimation of cohort mean diameters and theoretical tree count numbers. Using cohort mean diameters, we are able to estimate their age and discuss stand forestry history. Finally, the analysis of thirty broken stumps originating from senescent holm oak natural falls, is used to determine the mean natural mortality age of trees bused on their mean diameter. This natural mor- tality is estimated to occur at 170 -+ 46 years of age. The causes of holm oak mortality and the capacity of old stumps to renew the ecosystem are discussed in order to contribute to the conservation and man- agement of these woodland communities.</style></abstract></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%">Bertin, N</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Staudt, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hansen, U</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Seufert, G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foster, P</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fugit, J L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Torres, L</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Diurnal and seasonal course of monoterpene emissions from Quercus ilex(L.) under natural conditions application of light and temperature algorithms</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Atmospheric Environment</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holm oak</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">index</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">light and temperature algorithm</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean vegetation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Modelling</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Monoterpene</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1997</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">31</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">135-144</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex is a common oak species in the Mediterranean vegetation and a strong emitter of monoterpenes.

In the frame of the BEMA-project (Biogenic Emissions in the Mediterranean Area), we investigated the tree-to-tree, branch-to-branch, diurnal, and seasonal variability of monoterpene emissions from Q. ibex over one and a half years at Castelporziano (Rome, Italy). In addition, w,: checked the suitability of the model developed for isoprene by Guenther et al.

We found that the tree-to-tree variability was rather small compared to the experimental error during air sampling and analysis by diverse laboratories. The branch-to-branch variability was noticeable between sun- and shade-adapted branches only. 80% of total emissions were represented by cc-pinene, B-pinene and sabinene, whose proportions were stable over the year and independent of light exposure. The emission factor (emission rate at 30°C and 1000 ~molphotonm-Zs-l ) estimated by the isoprene model or extrapo- lated from measurements was similar: it was about 22 pggdw -r h-r for sun-exposed branches and 2.3 pggdw.-’ h-r for shade-adapted branches. It was rather stable over the seasons except during leaf development. The diurnal and seasonal emission patterns from Q. ibex were simulated in a satisfying way by Guenther’s algorithms especially if we excluded the laboratory variability.

In addition to a-pinene, B-pinene, sabinene, limonene and cineole, a suite of lesser known compounds were tentatively identified including cis- and trans-ocimene, cis- and trans-linalool oxide and sabinaketone. Emissions of isoprene from Quercus ilex were insignificant in comparison to those of the monoterpenes and were not detected from Pinus pinea. Variability in emission rates between two habitats, the forest and the dunes, were assessed for Quercus ibex. Temperature sensitivities of emissions and total summed emission rates from Quercus ilex were clearly related to environmental conditions. Emission rates from Pinus pinea showed great variability, but differences between normalised mean emission rates from mature forest and young plantation trees may be significant. Existing emission rate models were found to inadequately describe the observed data.</style></abstract></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%">Hättenschwiler, S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Miglietta, Franco</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Raschi, Antonio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Körner, C.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Morphological adjustments of mature Quercus ilex trees to elevated CO 2</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Acta Oecologica</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">allometric adjustments</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">biomass allocation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">branch morphology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">branching</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaf area</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">natural co 2 springs</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1997</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1997///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1146609X97800264</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">18</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">361 - 365</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">It is still not known whether mature forest trees respond to increasing atmospheric CO 2 concen- trations in similar ways as seedlings do.

Research in this area and its interaction with the environmental stresses on Mediterranean trees is stilllimited. In terms of growth response to elevated C02 Mediterranean trees may not be different from the Temperate zone trees, i.e., growth enhancement seems to be short-lived with a decline after the first hrowing seasons. In Mediterranean landscapes important soil fertility gradients, namely nitrogen can be found, which can interfere with response to elevated C02, as shown by our results on Fraxinus angustifolia and Quercus suber. On the other hand, in the Mediterranean aninteraction between elevated C02 and other &quot;summer stresses&quot;, like water deficits and elevated temperature and light, is likely to occur. We discuss the possibility that elevated C02 may alleviate sorne of the negative effects of these stresses.</style></abstract></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%">Owen, S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Boissard, C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Street, R A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Duckham, S C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Csiky, O</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hewitt, C N</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Screening of 18 Mediterranean plant species for volatile organic compound emissions</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Atmospheric Environment</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Arbutus unedo</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biogenic emissions</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">branch enclosure</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chrysanthemum praecox</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">cistus incanus</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cistus salvifolius</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cytisus sp.</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dittrichia sp.</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Erica arborea</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Erica multiflora</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Helichrysum stoechas</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">isoprene</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Juniperus oxycedrus</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Juniperus phoenicea</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Monoterpene</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">myrtus communis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phillyrea angustifolia</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pinus pinea</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus cerris</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rubus fruticosus</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Spartium junceum</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">VOCs</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1997</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">31, Supple</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">101-117</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Eighteen tree and shrub species were screened for emissions of isoprene and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs) at three locations at Castelporziano (Italy) using a bag-enclosure sampling method followed by GC analysis. Thirty emitted compounds were identified. Temperature sensitivity of emissions of monoterpenes varied between species. Strong temperature dependencies were found for isoprene emissions. For monoterpene-emitting plant species with greatest ground cover in the dunes and macchia habitats, α-pinene, β-pinene and sabinene appeared to be the most frequently and abundantly emitted compounds. Isoprene was the major emission from the shrub species screened in the forest. Emissions from four dominant plant species were scaled up to estimate total fluxes from the dunes and macchia over a daytime period.

The study aimed to assess the role of forest size, abundance and other biological traits (nesting site and foraging substrata) of the species in their ability to occupy the fragments. The number of fragments occupied by the species (f(i)) was correlated to their abundance (d(i)) in spring and winter. Spring-to-winter changes of di correlated positively to changes off, due to the incidence of summer migrants but failed to show any significant pattern when restricted to species occurring in both seasons. The between-winter variations of cl, correlated positively with changes in f, while the between-spring changes of both parameters did not correlate, probably because of stronger effects of site fidelity on bird distribution in this period. Between-year persistence in the occupation of fragments was directly related to bird species abundance and, for a given abundance, persistence decreased in the smallest fragments. Hole-nesting species during the 1988 spring and the exploiters of scarce trees or foraging substrata during both winters showed an apparent restriction to colonize the smaller fragments due in parr to changes in habitat structure related to fragmentation. These results support the hypothesis that abundance is a good predictor of the ability of species to occupy and persist in fragments. However, abundance alone does not fully explain the processes that determine these occupancy patterns, since other traits related to the spatial scale of analysis and the suitability of fragments for each bird species are also involved.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></research-notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>3</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">NAVARRO CERRILLO, R M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MARTÍNEZ SUÁREZ, A</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Supervivencia y crecimiento de encina ALCORNOQUE (Quercus suber) UTILIZANDO SEIS TIPOS DE TUBOS INVERNADERO</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">II Congreso Forestal Español</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Afforestation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Q.suber</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Treeshelters</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1997</style></year></dates><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pamplona</style></pub-location><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">437-442</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Achieving acceptable survival and growth of oak species on afforestation practices has been difficult.

However, long-term effects on trees growing to maturity and to canopy closure while exposed to elevated CO2 have never been examined. We compared tree ring chronologies of Mediterranean Quercus ilex which have been continuously exposed to elevated CO2 (around 650 mu mol mol(-1)) since they were seedlings, near two separate natural CO2 springs with those from trees at nearby ambient-CO2 `control' sites. Trees grown under high CO2 for 30 years (1964-93) showed a 12% greater final radial stem width than those growing at the ambient-CO2 control sites. However, this stimulation was largely due to responses when trees were young. By the time trees were 25-30 y old the annual difference in tree ring width between low and high CO2 grown trees had disappeared. At any given tree age, elevated CO2 had a relatively greater positive effect on tree ring width in years with a dry spring compared to years with more rainfall between April and May. This indicates a beneficial effect of elevated CO2 on tree water relations under drought stress. Our data suggest that the early regeneration phase of forest stands can be accelerated in CO2-enriched atmospheres and that maximum biomass per land area may be reached sooner than under lower CO2 concentrations. In our study, high CO2 grown Q. ilex trees reached the same stem basal area at the age of 26 y as control trees at 29 y,i.e. three years earlier (faster turnover of carbon?). Reliable predictions of the future development of forests need to account for the variable responses of trees over their entire lifetime. Such responses to elevated CO2 can presently only be assessed at such unique field sites.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jimenez, M.

Breeding density increased in both forests when nestbox density was raised. The breeding season started earlier in the pinewood, but tended to end at the same time in both habitats. Reproductive effort was higher in the plantation as reflected in egg volume rather than clutch size. Time of season had an effect on clutch size but not on the size of the eggs which remained constant throughout the breeding season. Breeding success was associated with habitat, with both the number of fledglings and their weight being higher in the pinewood. These parameters showed a seasonal trend in the pinewood but not in the helm oak forest. Our results show that Great Tit achieves a higher reproductive performance in the pinewood in spite of its recent settling in this habitat.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></research-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%">Bertin, N</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Staudt, M</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Effect of water stress on monoterpene emissions from young potted holm oak (Quercus ilex L.) trees</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Oecologia</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holm oak</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean vegetation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">monoterpene emission</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">water stress</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1996</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">107</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">456-462</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">We investigated the effects of a short period of water stress on monoterpene emissions from Quercus il- ex, a common oak species of the Mediterranean vegeta- tion and a strong emitter of monoterpenes. The experi- ment was carried out on two young saplings with a branch enclosure system under semi-controlled condi- tions. Under unstressed conditions, small qualitative (cis- [3-ocimene, trans-~3-ocimene, [3-caryophyllene and 1,8- cineol) and large quantitative (as much as 40% for the main compounds emitted) differences were observed be- tween the two apparently similar trees. Nevertheless these differences did not affect the short- and long-term responses to temperature and water stress. Daily courses of emissions and gas exchanges were similar before and after the stress. During the most severe stress, emissions were reduced by a factor of two orders of magnitude and the log-linear relationship between emissions and tem- perature no longer existed. Photosynthesis and transpira- tion rates decreased as soon as the soil started to dry, whereas monoterpene emissions slightly increased for few days and then dropped when the daily CO 2 balance approached zero. We concluded that under water stress monoterpene emissions were highly limited by monoter- pene synthesis resulting from a lack of carbon substrate and/or ATR After rewatering, both emissions and gas ex- changes recovered immediately, but to a level lower than the pre-stress level. These results have many implica- tions for monoterpene emission modelling in the Medi- terranean area, since the dry period generally extends from May to August. If our results are confirmed by field experiments, water stress could lead to a large overesti- mation of the emissions under summer conditions, when the algorithms based on light and temperature would give high emission rates.</style></abstract></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%">Trabaud, L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Galtié, J F</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Effects of fire frequency on plant communities and landscape pattern in the Massif des Aspres (southern France)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Landscape Ecology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">aspres</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">fire</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">landscape diversity</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus suber</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Southern France</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1996</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">215-224</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fire frequency can affect pattern and diversity in plant communities and landscapes. We had the opportunity to study changes due to recurring wildfires on the same sites over a period of 50 years in the &quot;Massif des Aspres&quot; (southern France). The study was carried out in areas occupied by Quercus suber and Q. ilex series. A comparison of historical and cartographical documents (vegetation maps covering a 50 year interval and an accurate map of major wildfires during this period) allowed us to determine the changes occurring over time with or without fire action. Plant communities were grouped into three main vegetation types: forests, treed shrublands and shrublands. The passage of three successive wildfires on the same site led to a decrease in for- est areas and an increase in shrublands; however, shrublands were already present before the first fire of the period under consideration. Less frequent fire occurrence induced more complex heterogeneity and greater landscape diversity. In the study region as a whole, with or without fire action, a significant decrease in forest surfaces was recorded, whereas there was an increase of unforested communities such as treed shrublands and shrublands. In some parts of the Massif fires increased the homogeneity of the landscape, in other parts they created a greater heterogeneity and diversity of plant communities.</style></abstract></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%">Loreto, F</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ciccioli, P</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cecinato, A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Brancaleoni, E</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Frattoni, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fabozzi, C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tricoli, D</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Evidence of the photosynthetic origin of monoterpenes emitted by Quercus ilex L leaves by C-13 labeling</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PLANT PHYSIOLOGY</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">alpha-pinene</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">C-13 labeling</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Emissions</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">isoprene</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Monoterpenes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus flex L.</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1996</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AMER SOC PLANT PHYSIOLOGISTS</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">15501 MONONA DRIVE, ROCKVILLE, MD 20855</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">110</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1317-1322</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The carbon of the four main monoterpenes emitted by Quercus flex L. leaves was completely labeled with C-13 after a 20-min feeding with 99% (CO2)-C-13. This labeling time course is comparable with the labeling time course of isoprene, the terpenoid emitted by other Quercus species and synthesized in leaf chloroplasts. It is also comparable with that of phosphoglyceric acid. Our experiment therefore provides evidence that monoterpenes emitted by Q. ilex are formed from photosynthesis intermediates and may share the same synthetic pathway with isoprene. By analyzing the rate and the distribution of labeling in the different fragments, we looked for evidence of differential carbon labeling in the alpha-pinene emitted. However, the labeling pattern was quite uniform in the different fragments, suggesting that the carbon skeleton of the emitted monoterpenes comes from a unique carbon source.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></research-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%">Collado, J.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Platas, G.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pelaez, F.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fungal endophytes in leaves, twigs and bark of Quercus ilex from Central Spain</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">NOVA HEDWIGIA</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">endophytes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">isolation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">microbial diversity</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1996</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1996///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">63</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">347 - 360</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fungal endophytes were isolated from leaves, twigs and bark discs of the main stem of 16 individuals of Quercus ilex at two sites in the forests of El Pardo, Madrid, central Spain.

Only the abaxial side of the hypostomatous Q. ilex leaf emits alpha-pinene. Light induced photosynthesis and alpha-pinene emission. However, the response of photosynthesis to dark-to-light transitions was faster than that of alpha-pinene, suggesting that ATP controls the emission. The emission was higher at 30 than at 20 degrees C, whereas photosynthesis did not change. Therefore, the relationship between photosynthesis and alpha-pinene emission does not always hold. When CO2 was removed from the air, transpiration was stimulated but photosynthesis and alpha-pinene emission were inhibited. alpha-Pinene inhibition was more rapid under low O-2. When CO2 in the air was increased, photosynthesis was stimulated and transpiration was reduced, but alpha-pinene emission was unaffected. Therefore, the emission depends on the availability of photosynthetic carbon, is not saturated at ambient CO2, and is not dependent on stomatal opening. The pattern of alpha-pinene emission from Q. ilex is different from that of plants having specialized structures for storage and emission of terpenes. We suggest that alpha-pinene emitted by Q. ilex leaves is synthesized in the chloroplasts and shares the same biochemical pathway with isoprene emitted by isoprene-emitting oak species.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></research-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%">Fleck, I</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Grau, D</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sanjosé, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vidal, D</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Influence of fire and tree-fell on physiological parameters in Quercus ilex resprouts</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ann.

Spatial structures obtained from data on i) leaf area index, ii) leaf litterfall, and iii) leaf litter decay rate were compared. All these variables were sampled on 26 points located within a 30 x 30 m plot. Mean average leaf litterfall over 10 years (1984-1993) was 254 g.m-2. For each year, the semivariograms of leaf litterfall have been fitted using a spherical model. The values of the range parameter (indicating the limit of the spatial dependence) ranged from 6.4 to 10.3 m, very close to the value (9.2 m) of the range parameter obtained when fitting the semivariogram of mean leaf litterfall over 10 years. This result indicates the temporal persistence of the spatial pattern of leaf litterfall. The leaf area index (LAI) was estimated at the same points with a plant canopy analyzer. The mean value was 2.96 ± 0.30. The limit of spatial dependence for LAI was very close to that obtained for leaf litterfall (range = 8.5 m). The litter decomposition pattern was obtained through analysis of litter samples taken at the same points. The percentage of ash-free litter mass remaining (LMR) estimated using near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy indicates the stage of decomposition. It decreased strongly between the surface (mean value 85.6%) and the subsurface layers (mean value 63.4%). The two semivariograms can be described by spherical models, the sill being reached at a range of 21.4 and 18.7 m for the surface and subsurface layers, respectively. The two variables directly related to the structure of the canopy (LAI and leaf litterfall) exhibited close spatial dependence and differed from the soil process-related variables (stage of decomposition) whose ranges were approximately double. These geostatistical analyses show promise for use in developing hypotheses concerning the spatial scale of process-pattern interactions.</style></abstract></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%">Rambal, S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Damesin, C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Joffre, R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Méthy, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lo Seen, D</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Optimization of carbon gain in canopies of Mediterranean evergreen oaks</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ann.

There was a significant site effect on LMA with values being lower in mesic sites compared to those on xeric sites. In all canopies, LMA decreased by up to 50% from the top to the bottom. The relationships between cumulative leaf area index and LMA could be represented by an exponential function. For two canopies of Q ilex growing in contrasting environments, we analyzed the interrelationships among LMA, mass-based nitrogen, mass-based metabolic versus structural (total fiber) content, photosynthetic electron transport and carbon isotope composition. There was no difference in mass-based nitrogen or fiber content among upper and lower canopy positions in both locations.

There was a significant site effect on LMA with values being lower in mesic sites compared to those on xeric sites. In all canopies, LMA decreased by up to 50% from the top to the bottom. The relationships between cumulative leaf area index and LMA could be represented by an exponential function. For two canopies of Q ilex growing in contrasting environments, we analyzed the interrelationships among LMA, mass-based nitrogen, mass-based metabolic versus structural (total fiber) content, photosynthetic electron transport and carbon isotope composition. There was no difference in mass-based nitrogen or fiber content among upper and lower canopy positions in both locations. The maximum quantum yield of linear electron flow can be considered to be constant within the canopy. The area-based maximal electron transport rate and the carbon isotope composition were significantly linearly related to the LMA. Finally, we tested whether the observed depth-distribution follows the pattern suggested by some optimization theories.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2-3</style></issue></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%">Nabais, C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Freitas, H</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hagemeyer, J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Breckle, S W</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Radial distribution of Ni in stemwood of Quercus ilex L. trees grown on serpentine and sandy loam (umbric leptosol) soils of NE-Portugal</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant and soil</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">dendrochemistry</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nickel</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">serpentine</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">tree rings</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1996</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">183</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">181-185</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Concentrations of Ni were determined in xylem and phloem of Quercus ilex trees growing on serpentine and sandy loam soils of northeast Portugal. Radial distribution patterns of Ni in stemwood were compared to variations in annual growth increments of the trees. Concentrations of Ni in xylem and phloem were higher in Q. ilex from serpentine soil, when compared with Q. ilex of a sandy loam soil. The radial distributions of Ni showed large variations among the trees, although they all grew in the same area within a short distance from each other. These differences can be caused by small-scale spatial variations in the soil. Therefore, the use of such radial Ni distributions for a retrospective biomonitoring of the Ni pollution of larger areas appears questionable.</style></abstract></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%">Tognetti, R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Giovannelli, A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Longobucco, A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Miglietta, F</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Raschi, A</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Water relations of oak species growing in the natural CO2 spring of Rapolano (central Italy)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ann.

The study was conducted on trees growing in a naturally enriched CO2 spring. Sap velocity and sap flow were measured by the heat pulse technique. On the same trees, daily courses of xylem water potential, leaf conductance and transpiration were monitored. Plant water relations were evaluated by pressure-volume analysis method on shoots; on the same branches, relative conductivity of xylem was measured. Both species exhibited increased osmotic potential and decreased symplasmic fraction of water in trees adapted to increased CO2. Downy oak showed lower stomatal conductance under elevated CO2, but holm oak did not. Both species displayed higher sap flow in control trees. In both species, increased carbon dioxide did not influence xylem embolism formation.</style></abstract></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%">Prados, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Aragon, R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Carranco, M I</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Martínez, a</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Martínez, J</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Assessment of sensitization to holm oak (Quercus ilex) pollen in the Mérida area (Spain)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Allergy</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holm oak</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mérida</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">sensitization</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1995</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Blackwell Publishing Ltd</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">50</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">456-459</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sensitization to Quercus ilex(holm oak) was studied in 760 patients with clinical suspected sensitization to aeroallergens.

The aim was to find a way to precisely date the volis to obtain a chronological sample which corresponded to the time of vegetation opening due to the fall of a holm oak and up to complete vegetation closure. The best marker appeared to be Phillyrea latifolia, a typical maquis tree found in association with the holm oak, which has a high capacity to produce stem sprouts after the breakage. In order to date the chablis, rings from the stem sprouts must be counted and a careful observation of the other species must be made to confirm results.</style></abstract></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%">Michaud, H.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Toumi, L.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lumaret, R.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Li, T.

We found that sempervirent species with persistent leaves like Calytcotome villosa, Arbutus unedo, Quercus ilex and Cistus salviaefolius were eaten by deer all the year along. In fact, we identified three different categories of plant species according to the different levels of use by deer. A first groupe includes species highly and quickly consumed by deer like Calycotome villosa, Fraxinus ornus and Lonicera etrusca. These plants can even disappear when deer density becomes very high. A second group was composed of plant species red deer ate but searched for in a lesser extent like Arbutus unedo and Quercus ilex. Consumption of some of them showed a peak during summer (Rosa canina and Rubus sp.). in the last groupe, we pooled species weakly consumed by red deer, like Erica arborea and Cistus salviaefolius.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></research-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%">GLENN, M G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">GOMEZBOLEA, A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">LOBELLO, R</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">METAL CONTENT AND COMMUNITY STRUCTURE OF CRYPTOGAM BIOINDICATORS IN RELATION TO VEHICULAR TRAFFIC IN MONTSENY-BIOSPHERE-RESERVE (CATALONIA, SPAIN)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">LICHENOLOGIST</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">airborn particles</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">bryophytes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">corticolous macrolichens</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">metal content</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Montseny Biosphere Reserve</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Parmelia</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">traffic level</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1995</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ACADEMIC PRESS (LONDON) LTD</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">24-28 OVAL RD, LONDON, ENGLAND NW1 7DX</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">27</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">291-304</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The health, abundance, metal content and species richness of corticolous macrolichens and bryophytes of Quercus ilex were compared at nine roadside stations in Montseny Biosphere Reserve, 40 km NNE of Barcelona, and at a control site outside the industrial metropolis.

Sampling was conducted in parallel at two sites which represent endpoints along a slope gradient within a small catchment (ridge top at 975 m and valley bottom at 700 m). Deeper soils resulted in significantly higher N and P concentrations, and N content on a leaf area basis at the valley bottom site. In contrast, K concentration in leaves was significantly higher at the ridge top site, where soil K concentration was also higher. At both sites, N and P content on a leaf area basis was highest at the top of the canopy, where leaf area is highest. N resorption efficiency decreased from top to bottom of the canopy. Results suggested a minor role of shaded leaves as nutrient storage sites. Lower P resorption efficiency was found at the ridge top site. Seasonal changes of P and N concentration on a leaf area basis suggest P replenishment, and to a lesser degree N, during periods of lower growth activity due to low temperatures, but coinciding with higher water availability (autumn-early spring period). Thus, N and P resorption from the remaining foliage in the canopy took place, and to a larger degree at the valley bottom site, coinciding with a slightly higher leaf area index and productivity at this site.</style></abstract></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%">Focardi, S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Poli, B M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tinelli, A</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">THE NUTRITIONAL CARRYING-CAPACITY OF 4 MEDITERRANEAN HABITATS FOR FALLOW DEER (DAMA-DAMA)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">REVUE D ECOLOGIE-LA TERRE ET LA VIE</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cistus salvifolius</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">digestibility</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">fallow dear</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">mediterranean landscape</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phyllirea latifolia</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rubus ulmifolius</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">trophic value</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1995</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SOC NATL PROTECTION NATURE ACCLIMATATION FRANCE</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">57 RUE CUVIER, 75005 PARIS 5, FRANCE</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">50</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">97-107</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The assessment of the trophic value of the most consumed feed by fallow deer in a coastal mediterranean landscape (Rubus ulmifolius, Cistus salvifolius, Phyllirea latifolia, Quercus ilex and graminoids) was based on in vitro digestibility trials, performed throughout the year (1 set of samples per season) using rumen inocula from wild fallow deer from the Preserve of Castelporziano, collected simultaneously with the vegetal samples. Moreover, in vivo digestibility coefficients have been estimated by using standard feed (for fallow deer) of known in vivo digestibility. Using the digestibility coefficients, the metabolizable energy yield of studied forage items was computed. Information about plant biomass, structure of fallow deer population, metabolizable energy yields, estimates of forage intake and energy requirements were combined using the model presented by Hobbs and Swift (1985) to evaluate the nutritional carrying capacity of four typical mediterranean habitats (natural evergreen oak wood, scrub mixed plantations of Quercus ilex and Pinus pinea, open pastures). Spring represents the most favourable situation, while summer, autumn and winter exhibit similar values of carrying capacity of about 15-20 deer/100 ha. Mixed plantations of Pinus pinea and Q. ilex seem to be the most productive condition for fallow deer.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></research-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%">Debussche, M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Isenmann, P.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">BIRD-DISPERSED SEED RAIN AND SEEDLING ESTABLISHMENT IN PATCHY MEDITERRANEAN VEGETATION</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">OIKOS</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">bird dispersers</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">fleshy-fruited</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">France</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">seedlings</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1994</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1994///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">69</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">414 - 426</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The composition and spatial patterns of the seed rain produced by bird dispersers and of the seedlings of fleshy-fruited plants have been studied in patchy Mediterranean vegetation in southern France. The seeds of fleshy-fruited plants were collected in seed traps during a 17-month period (1981-1983) and the fecal samples of bird dispersers mist-netted on the same 2.5-ha site over a 25-month period (1981-1984) were analysed. The locations of the 5 sets of seed traps and the 6 mist-nets were chosen in order to take into account the various plant communities and the successional gradient from old fields to Quercus ilex coppice. Seedling establishment of fleshy-fruited plants was censused in 1983 adjacent to the seed traps. In 1992 seedlings were again censused in the open coppice and in the old fields. The seeds of 38 fleshy-fruited plants were collected, including 13 alien and cultivated species. Among them, 25 species were dispersed by Sylvia atricapilla, which dispersed the most diverse and mixed seed rain of the various bird dispersers. Species richness of the seed rain increased log-linearly with seed density, ranging from 3 to 21 species per 0.25 m2. Seed density was very heterogeneous in space. The maximum density of seeds was observed under the canopy of isolated trees and saplings in the old fields (up to 829 per 0.25 m2) which are the favoured perching places for the dispersers. Minimum density was observed in the same old fields outside the canopy of these same trees and saplings (down to 12 per 0.25 m2). In the Quercus ilex coppice, the higher the canopy, the higher the seed density. Dispersal was a short distance process. A large majority of the seeds of Pyracantha coccinea and Sambucus nigra were dispersed by birds less than 100 m from the maternal plant. However, a dispersal distance of &gt; 300 m was observed for a seed of Ligustrum vulgare, In 1983 the &lt; 1 yr-old seedlings of 17 fleshy-fruited plants, including only one alien species, and the 1-2 yr-old seedlings of 7 native species were censused. Though important components of the seed rain, no 1-2 yr-old seedlings of several alien (e.g. Pyracantha coccinea) or native (e.g. Rhus coriaria) species were observed in the studied vegetation. Seedlings were more numerous under tree cover than in the coppice clearings. In the old fields, &lt; 1 yr-old seedlings were more numerous under the canopy than in open areas. No such difference was observed under saplings in 1983 and very few seedlings were observed in the old fields. The 1992 census suggested that the positive role of the cover of pioneer plants on seedling establishment progressively increased with successional development. This is probably due to an increase in the nurse effect and a decrease in the herbaceous cover under the canopy. It is suggested that. in old fields. the establishment of fleshy-fruited plants is favoured when seeds are deposited under pioneer woody plants rather than in open areas. The bird dispersers thus trigger dynamic processes initiated by the pioneer woody plants in Mediterranean old field succession. More generally, dispersal of fleshy-fruited plants by birds is more significant in the central stages of succession gradient than it is in open herbaceous communities and in dense forest when both have an homogeneous structure.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APSAPSThe following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;pub-location: 35 NORRE SOGADE, PO BOX 2148, DK-1016 COPENHAGEN, DENMARK&lt;br/&gt;publisher: MUNKSGAARD INT PUBL LTD</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%">SABATE, Santiago</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gracia, Carlos a</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ecology, Forest</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barcelona, Universitat De</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Canopy nutrient content of a Quercus ilex L. forest: fertilization and irrigation effects</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest Ecology and Management</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Canopy</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">fertilization</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">irrigation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">nutrient content</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1994</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">68</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">31-37</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A multifactorial ANOVA experiment was designed for a Quercus ilex L. forest at the Prades Experimental Complex of Catchments in Tarragona (northeast Spain). The purpose of this study was to clarify the relative importance of water, nitrogen and phosphorus as factors controlling primary production. Eight plots comprising all possible combinations of the three factors (including a control) were laid out in three replicate blocks. Fertilizers were applied in March 1989 (125 kg ha−1 P, 250 kg ha−1 N). Irrigation was applied at a rate of 20 mm week−1 during the warm season. Nitrogen and phosphorus contents and their distribution in leaves and stems as a response to the experiment are presented in this paper. These variables as well as the structural characteristics were selected because they are among the most dynamic and should present changes over short time periods following changes in environmental conditions. The values before initial treatments (autumn 1988) and after treatments (summer 1990) were analysed. Results showed that water treatments affect the nutrient content; the lower concentrations found in water treatments may probably be explained as a dilution effect after an increase of production. Nitrogen treatments significantly increase the nitrogen concentration in young leaves while phosphorus treatments do not have significant effect on the phosphorus concentrations. Nevertheless, phosphorus treatment significantly lowers the potassium concentration.</style></abstract></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%">Sala, A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sabate, S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gracia, Carlos</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tenhunen, J D</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Canopy structure within a Quercus ilex forested watershed: variations due to location, phenological development, and water availability</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Trees-Structure and Function</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Canopy structure</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaf area index</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean sclerophylls</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">water deficit</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1994</style></year></dates><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">254-261</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Spatial and temporal changes in canopy structure were studied in 1988 and 1989 in a Mediterranean Q u e r c u s ilex forest in north-eastern Spain. Due to differences in precipitation patterns the 1989 growing season was drier than the 1988 growing season. Sampling was conducted in parallel at two sites which represent endpoints along a slope gradient within a watershed (ridge top at 975 m, and valley bottom at 700 m). At both sites, similar inter-annual changes in canopy structure were observed in response to differences in water availability. Samples harvested in the upper 50 cm of the canopy during 1989 exhibited a de- crease in both average leaf size and the ratio of young to old leaf and stem biomass relative to samples obtained in 1988. At the whole canopy level, a decrease in leaf pro- duction efficiency and an increase in the stem to leaf bio- mass ratio was observed in 1989. Temporal changes in canopy leaf area index (LAI) were not statistically sig- nificant. Average LAI values of Q. ilex at the two sites were not significantly different despite differences in tree stature and density (4.6 m 2 m -2 at the ridge top, and 5.3 m 2 m -2 at the valley bottom). Vertical distribution of leaves and stems within the canopy was very similar at the two locations, with more than 60% of the total LAI in the uppermost metre of the canopy. The possible significance of such an LAI distribution on the canopy carbon budget is discussed.</style></abstract></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%">Trabaud, Louis</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Diversite de la banque de semences du sol d'une foret mediterraneenne de Quercus ilex</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biological Conservation</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">dissemination</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">FOREST</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">seed</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Soil</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1994</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">69</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">107-114</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Résumé La banque de semences du sol a été étudiée dans une futaie de Quercus ilex. La richesse des semences est relativement faible (500/m2); par contre, sa richesse floristique est élevée (56 espèces/m2). Les types de dispersion les plus utilisés sont l'anémochorie, l'autochorie et l'ornithochorie. La plupart des semences enfouies dans le sol appartiennent à des espèces étrangères à la futaie, provenant de milieux (sources) voisins ou lointains. On a constaté aussi une convergence de la flore des semences des banques du sol de diverses communautés. A la faveur d'une perturbation (feu ou coupe) ces semences trouvent des conditions favorables (car héliophiles pour la plupart), germent et produisent de nombreuses plantules constituant des stades transitoires. The soil seed bank has been studied in a Quercus ilex forest. Seed richness was relatively low (500/m2); in contrast, specific richness was high (56 species/m2). Anemochory (wind-borne), autochory (self-dispersion) and ornithochory (birds) were the dissemination types encountered most. Most of the seed buried in the soil belonged to species alien to the forest, coming from neighbouring or distant (sources) environments. A convergence between the soil seed bank floras of different communities could be noticed. When a disturbance (fire or cutting) occurs, creating favourable conditions, seeds germinate producing numerous seedlings representing transitory stages.</style></abstract></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%">Mayor, Xavier</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rodà, Ferran</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Effects of irrigation and fertilization on stem diameter growth in a Mediterranean holm oak forest</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest Ecology and Management</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">fertilization</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Growth</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">irrigation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stem diameter growth</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1994</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">68</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">119-126</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The effects of irrigation and fertilization on stem diameter growth are reported for holm oak (Quercus ilex L.), an evergreen tree that is a common dominant in Mediterranean forests. The experiment was conducted at Prades (northeastern Spain) in a holm oak stand with a high density of stems of resprout origin (x = 18275 stems ha−1), a widespread stand structure in the abandoned coppices that cover extensive tracts of Mediterranean mountains. Mean annual rainfall is 580 mm. Eight treatments were used in each of three blocks, resulting from the factorial combination of: (i) irrigation at rates of about 20 mm week−1 during three consecutive warm seasons; (ii) nitrogen fertilization in a single application of 250 kg N ha−1; (iii) phosphorus fertilization in a single application of 125 kg P ha−1. Stem diameters at 50 cm from the ground were measured before and 3 years after treatment application began. Stem diameter increments in control plots were very low (x ± SE 0.27 ± 0.07 mm year−1), probably as a result of the high stand density and low water availability. Stem diameter growth was positively but loosely correlated with initial stem diameter. Irrigation significantly (P &lt; 0.01) increased mean stem diameter growth by 66%, but N and P fertilization did not. Surprisingly, there were no significant interactions between irrigation and fertilization, i.e. irrigated and fertilized trees did not grow significantly faster than irrigated-only trees. Effects of irrigation were larger on plots having lower initial basal area of holm oak. Irrigation increased stem diameter growth more in large trees than in smaller ones, thus enhancing the pre-existent inequalities in growth rates. Stem diameter growth in this high density stand is limited by water availability but has not responded to N or P additions during the first 3 years after fertilization.</style></abstract></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%">Hebrard, J P</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Loisel, R</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SEARCH FOR FACTORS MAINTAINING TERRICOLOUS BRYOFLORA RICHNESS IN ISOLATED HABITATS - THE CASE OF SCLEROPHYLLOUS OAK GROVES OF THE OCCIDENTAL BORDER OF THE MAURES MASSIF (VAR, FRANCE)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">CRYPTOGAMIE BRYOLOGIE LICHENOLOGIE</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">bryophytes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Microhabitats</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus suber</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1994</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ADAC-CRYPTOGAMIE</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12 RUE DE BUFFON, 75005 PARIS, FRANCE</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">15</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">267-290</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Processing (FAC) of 25 bryophytoecological releves and quantitative analysis of bryofloristical inventories from 4 forest structures (surface values respectively 3976, 6160, 13115 and 77617 m2) isolated within the vineyard near Pierrefeu-du-Var (siliceous substratum) show that, for what concerns sclerophyllous oaks ecosystems (Quercus ilex, more rarely Quercus suber), the more humid the local microclimate is, the greatest are richness and diversity of terricolous communities of bryophytes. The optimal conditions for preservation of richness in forest bryophytes are here realized at the Defens du Becasson (surface: 77617 m2, maximum width: 151 m), a north-facing side which is well protected against the drying action of dominant winds and where the architecture of the ligneous formations is heterogeneous. On the other hand, the diversity of available microhabitants in the 2 largest isolates (strong slope, presence of clearings and disturbed skirts) contributes to increase their global richness in bryophytes. Furthermore, the presence of a dense layer of shrubs limits the accumulation of dead leaves on soil surface, allowing a good spread of the bryophyte layer and correlatively an enrichment in forest taxa when ambient humidity is high enough.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></research-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%">Skaltsa, Helen</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Verykokidou, Evmorphia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Harvala, Catherine</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Karabourniotis, George</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Manetasi, Yiannis</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">UV-B protective potential and flavonoid content of leaf hairs of Quercus ilex</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Phytochemistry</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fagaceae</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">flavonoids</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Holly Oak</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaf hairs</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">UV-B damage</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1994</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">37</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">987-990</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Flavonoids of non-glandular leaf hairs from Quercus ilex were analysed.

Waterand nutrients are often the most important limiting factors. Nevertheless the ecophysiological traits of this specie could help to explain the observed patterns of productivity. Leaf area index of european evergreen-oak forests is rather constant with values about 5. The energetic cost of formation and maintenance of the leaves of Quercus ilex accounts for more than 50 per cent of total carbon fixed by the trees. The resproutig ability of evergreen oaks could explain the high density and low mean diameter of these populations. The high proportion of living tissues in this type of structuni increases the respiration costs of the stems and branches. As a consequence, an important fraction of carhon fixed by leaves is used to maintain the structure of the community which contribute to explain the low observed net primary production of Quercus ilex forests</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>3</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gracia, Marc</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Retana, Javier</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Espelta, Josep Maria</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gené, Caries</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">CARACTERIZACION ESTRUCTURAL DE LOS ENCINARES DE CATALUÑA Marc</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Congreso Forestal Español, Lourizán - Pontevedra. 1993</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Basal area</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">density of stems</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Forest structure</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">holm-oak</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">size distri bu ti on</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1993</style></year></dates><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">377-379</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">In this paper, a characterization of structure of holm-oak forests in the Northeastem Iberian Peninsula is proposed.

We investigated whether isolated trees modify the water balance of this ecosystem and if so, what implications this finding might have on models that assume homogeneity of soil water resources. The water balance of the two ecological components of the dehesas-(1) the tree-grass component, and (2) the open areas between the tree canopies with unshaded grass vegetation-was studied for three consecutive years in three locations in the Sierra Norte de Sevilla region of Andalusia in southern Spain. In this region, annual rainfall was generally between 600 and 800 mm, and the summer drought lasted almost-equal-to 130 d. Soil water storage was measured with a neutron moisture gauge outside and under the tree canopy. Deep drainage between two consecutive census dates was calculated using field-measured drainage characteristics. Evapotranspiration (Ea) and surface runoff were computed from the water balance equation assuming that Ea is limited by Penman potential evapotranspiration. Monthly Ea by annual species in open areas was poorly correlated with rainfall levels in the autumn and was limited during the spring by availability of water in the top 40 cm of soil. During summer, monthly Ea by trees ranged from 30 to 50 mm. Mean annual Ea was 400 mm outside and 590 mm under the tree cover. In open areas, water yield (WY), defined as the sum of deep drainage and surface runoff, ranged from 65 to 100% of total Ea, whereas under the tree canopy WY was only 20 to 40% of the Ea. Under the tree canopy, when annual precipitation was &lt; 570 mm, WY was negligible and all precipitation was lost by evapotranspiration. Outside the tree canopy, WY occurred as soon as annual precipitation exceeded 250 mm. Models of competition between trees and grass generally assume a spatial homogeneity of soil hydrodynamic properties. Our results, however, show that both soil water storage and evapotranspiration are greater for the tree-grass component. Consequently, these models must account for this spatial variability in water resources according to species.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Escudero Garcia, J.

Two experimental designs were used to answer these questions. The first studied the effect of two cleaning intensities on 4, 8, 15, 20, and 25 year old coppices. The second studied the effect of 4 thin- O O/ ning intensities (26 o, 42.0, 58%, or 78 °,/o removal of the initial basal area) on 43 and 57 year old coppices. In both cases, control plots undergoing no silvicultural treatment were maintained for each age class. The results, 4 and 5 years after silvicultural treatment, concerned girth increment and height growth of coppice shoots. Cleaning or thinning consistently had a positive influence on girth increment. In young coppices, less than 25 years old, mean annual girth increment was approximately 6 mm in the controls and double that under heavy cleaning. In older coppices, girth increment was lower in controls (3 mm per year) but the effect of thinning was very positive and, under very heavy thinning, growth was more than 11 mm per year. Cleaning and thinning often modify height growth. This effect was found to be either positive or negative and no general trend could be defined which was valid for all the age classes. Silvicultural treatments also had a positive effect on the appearance and growth of epicormic shoots on the holm oak trunks. The results were also analysed at the stool level. The number or percentage of shoots removed had a positive effect on the individual growth of selected shoots</style></abstract></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%">Trabaud, L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Méthy, M</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Effets de températures sub-létales sur l'appareil photosynthétique du chêne vert (Quercus ilex L)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ann.

Resistance to high temperatures by the photosynthetic system of leaves of a sclerophyllous tree growing in the Mediterranean basin (Quercus ilex) has been studied using the fluorescence induction technique. Registration of the kinetics with determination of fluorescence decrease ratio was carried out every month for 1 year. According to the dates of sampling, leaves were sorted into 2 categories: &gt; 3 months and &lt; 3 months. They were heated at temperatures of 50, 55 and 60 °C for periods ranging from 0 to 30 min. After sclerification was established (≈ 1 month old) leaves withstood heat with only limited damage at 50 °C. In contrast, the photosynthetic system was totally destroyed when exposed to 60 °C for 30 min. Leaves collected in July displayed some adaptation to high temperatures. The consequences on the functioning of Q ilex in an environment with high temperatures have been examined.</style></abstract></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%">Escudero, a</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Arco, J M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Garrido, M V</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The efficiency of nitrogen retranslocation from leaf biomass in Quercus ilex ecosystems</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Ecology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaf demography</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Leaf fall</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">nutrient cycling</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pinus pinea</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus pyrenaica</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1992</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">99-100</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">225-237</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nitrogen retranslocation from senescing leaves represents a crucial adaptation by tree species towards a more efficient use of this nutrient. As a result, this part of the nitrogen cycle has received increasing attention in recent years. However, there remain strong discrepancies with respect to the factors re- sponsible for interspecific differences in the efficiency of this process. In the present work the seasonal pattern of leaf growth and the movement of nitrogen in leaves have been studied in a series of Quercus ilex plots with different levels of rainfall and soil quality in central- western Spain, as well as in 20 other woody species typical of this area. The percentage of nitrogen retranslocated was estimated from the difference between the maximum mass of nitrogen stored in the leaf biomass and the amount of this nutrient returned annually to the soil through leaf fall. Q. ilex appears as one of the least efficient species in the Mediterranean region in the recovery of nitrogen from senescing leaves (29.7°0 of the maximum pool). Furthermore, the older leaves of Q. ilex do not s h o w the cycles of nitrogen withdrawal during new flushes of shoot growth, such as occurs in Pinus spp. This suggests that older leaves in Q. ilex do not play an important role as nitrogen storage organs.</style></abstract></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%">Bellot, J.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sánchez, J.

Among the 19 bird dispersers recorded, 14 were of small size (&lt; 25 g), with Sylvia atricapilla, Erithacus rubecula and S. melanocephala accounting for 86.6 % of those caught in mist nets. The importance of small-sized dispersers seems to characterize the Mediterranean shrublands and evergreen woodlands in the whole of the temperate systems. The highest numbers of dispersers occurred from October to January. The seeds of 38 fleshy-fuited plants (native, cultivated and alien) were collected in seed traps. Seed rain occurred throughout the year except in May, with a maximum fruiting period extending from September to early December and the greatest number of native species being dispersed in October. When we compare our data to those collected in Spain, England and Sweden a shift of the peak of fruit availability in relation to latitude (the higher the latitude the earlier the peak) is very likely in Europe. Such a shift is obvious in the United States. We suggest that 1) this shift is the result of climatic constraints on plants rather than that of the selective pressures of dispersers, and 2) that the coincidence between high fruit availability and dispersers' abundance can simply result from the opportunist behaviour of frugivorous birds.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Keys: APSKeys: APSThe following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;pub-location: 57 RUE CUVIER, 75005 PARIS 5, FRANCE&lt;br/&gt;publisher: SOC NATL PROTECTION NATURE ACCLIMATATION FRANCE</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%">Afzal-Rafii, Zara</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dodd, Richard S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pelleau, Yvonne</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mediterranean evergreen oak diversity: morphological and chemical variation of acorns</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Canadian Journal of Botany</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">biometry</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">chemistry</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">diversity</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ecogeography</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus rotundifolia</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1992</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1992///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://dx.doi.org/10.1139/b92-184</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">70</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1459 - 1466</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Acorns of mediterranean evergreen oak were collected from eight ecogeographically contrasting localities in Italy and Spain. Biometrical analysis of acorns and their cupules showed much greater variation among Spanish populations, encompassing the variation in Italy. The Spanish population at El Pardo, considered the type locality for Quercus rotundifolia, separated from all others. Multivariate analyses of the chemical data indicated, on the one hand, separation of Spain from Italy, and on the other hand, a separation of interior Spanish populations from coastal populations. The importance of lipid composition in the former separation may reflect genetic differentiation between these two origins.

The plots spanned a range of altitudes and slope aspects within a catchment. Nutrients considered were nitrogen (N), phospho- rus (P), potassium (K) and magnesium (Mg) in plant samples, and the above plus calcium (Ca) and sodium (Na) in the soil. Primary production was found by summing the annual aboveground biomass increment to the annual litterfall. Across plots, primary production was correlated with the annual re- turn of nutrients in litterfall, but this relationship probably arose from the common effects of the amount of litterfall on both primary production and nutrient return, and not from any nutrient limitation. Pri- mary production was not significantly correlated with nutrient concentrations in mature leaves nor leaf litterfall, nor with absolute or relative foliar retranslocation of nutrients before leaf abscission, nor with the concentration and content (kg/ha) of total N, extractable P, and exchangeable K, Mg, Ca and Na in the upper mineral soil. We conclude that there is no correlational evidence that primary production is nutrient limited in this holm oak forest.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">FERRAN, A.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SERRASOLSAS, I.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vallejo, V.

Previous results obteined about the structure of these stands are presented in the present paper.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;periodical: RESPONSES OF FOREST ECOSYSTEMS TO ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGES&lt;br/&gt;pub-location: BARKING ESSEX</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%">Blondel, J.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Isenmann, P.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Maistre, M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Perret, P.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">What are the consequences of being a downy oak (quercus pubescens) or a holm oak (Q. ilex) for breeding blue tits (Parus caeruleus)?</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant Ecology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">breeding traits</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">caterpillars</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leafing phenology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Parus caeruleus</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus pubescens</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1992</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1992///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.springerlink.com/index/W8365WJ121686P80.pdf</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">99-100</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">129 - 136</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">By comparison with deciduous oaks, the lower yearly production of new leaves in sclerophyllous oaks is hypothesized to have several consequences on animal communities. In particular, the production of arthropod communities that feed upon the leaves should be lower in sclerophyllous than in deciduous oaks, this causing changes in breeding patterns and the demographic balance in insectivorous birds. Studies in both deciduous and sclerophyllous habitats in southern France have shown that: 1) the spring development of new leaves occurs later and more slowly in sclerophyllous than in deciduous oaks, 2) the biomass of caterpillars is much lower in sclerophyllous oak forests, and 3)there is a large variation in life history traits of the Blue Tit depending in which type of habitat they breed. Laying date occurs later and clutch size is lower in sclerophyllous habitats than in deciduous habitats. The evolution of life history traits is discussed according to whether poor sclerophyllous habitats are isolated (e.g. on Corsica) or are parts of landscapes including both habitat types.</style></abstract></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%">Rafii, Zara A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zavarin, Eugene</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pelleau, Y</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chemosystematic differentiation of Quercus ilex and Q. rotundifolia based on acorn steroids</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biochemical Systematics and Ecology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">acorns</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">chemosystematics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">evergreen oak</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">fatty acids</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus rotundifolia</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">steroids</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1991</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">19</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">249-252</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Acorns from 34 individual Quercus ilex and Q. rotundifolia trees from 11 locations in Italy and Spain were sampled and analysed for composition of steroids. β-Sitosterol was most abundant in all populations.

In leaf discs, in saturating C02 at various irradiances, qN responded linearly in a 1:1 relationship to 1-A/Ap, which represents the proportion of light energy that is not used in photosynthesis. In calculating Ap, a measured, maximal quantum yield for CO2 fixation of 0.080 for 1-year-oldleaves and 0.085 for young leaveswas used. In attached leaves, under natural conditions, this 1: 1 relation was found when a quantum yield of 0.020 and 0.031 was adopted respectively. According to a model of leaf photosynthesis these quantum yields correspond to stromal CO2 concentrations of 90 and 120μLL L-1, in contrast to an average value of substomatal CO2 concentration of 280μLL L-1 found through gas exchange measurements. Similar results were obtained when the relative increase of fluorescence, observed after a saturating flash given during steady photosynthesis at different irradiances, was plotted against the quantum yield of CO2 fixation. The slope of this relation in attached leaves differed from the slope obtained in saturating CO2 in the leaf discs to such an extent as to indicate stromal CO2 concentrations slightly lower compared with the above values obtained by using qE. The marked difference between stromal and substomatal CO2 concentration could be explained by the highly sclerophyllous character of Q. ilex leaves.</style></abstract></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%">Caritat, A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Terradas, J</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Micronutrients in biomass fractions of holm oak, beech and fir forests of the Montseny massif (Catalonia, NE Spain)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ann.

The contents of 4 micronutrients (Mn, Fe, Zn and Cu) are given for some biomass fractions in individual monospecific stands of holm oak (Quercus ilex L), beech (Fagus sylvatica L) and fir (Abies alba). The behaviour of different micronutrients is related to relative mobility. Mn, Fe and Zn concentrations increase with leaf age. Nutrient levels of the Montseny stands are compared with those found in other forests of the same species. We have observed relatively high Mn concentrations in different biomass fractions of the holm oak forest studied. This can be related to the low soil pH values. Our 3 forests show different micronutrient allocational patterns. Total quantities of the micronutrients in the biomass are only calculated for Q ilex forest. Values found are 33.6 kg Mn/ha, 15.0 kg Fe/ha, 2.8 kg Zn/ha and 0.17 kg Cu/ha.</style></abstract></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%">Salleo, S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">GULLO, M A L O</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sclerophylly and Plant Water Relations in Three Mediterranean Quercus Species</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Annals of Botany</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Drought resistance</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaf conductance</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus pubescens (PG)</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus suber L.</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Relative water content</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">sclerophylly</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1990</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">65</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">259-270</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The possible role in drought resistance played by sclerophylly was studied in the Mediterranean oaks Quercus ilex, Q. suber and Q. pubescens. Studies were conducted on leaves at 30, 50 and 80% of their final surface area, as well as on mature leaves of the current year's growth in June and September and on 1-year-old leaves.Leaves of different ages of the three species showed quite different degrees of sclerophylly (DS). Q. ilex leaves reached the definitive DS of 1.75 g dm−2 during leaf expansion; Q. pubescens leaves hardened at the end of their expansion, with a final DS of 0.93 g dm−2; Q. suber showed the lowest DS of 0.76 g dm−2.Leaf conductance to water vapour (g1) of 1-year-old leaves of Q. ilex, measured in the field, showed a duration of the g1 peak values about twice that of the other two species. The minimum leaf relative water content (RWC), however, was near the same in the three species, indicating that water loss was recovered partly by Q. ilex leaves. This was apparently due to the higher bulk modulus of elasticity (max) as resulting from leaf water potential isotherms.High correlation coefficients were noted between DS and max but large changes in DS were needed to display minor changes in max. When both DS and max were correlated to the minimum RWC, an increase in DS of 133 % (corresponding to an increase in max of only 12 %) was needed to cause an increase in RWC of 2%. Therefore, sclerophylly cannot be considered as significantly related to a drought-avoiding strategy.</style></abstract></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%">PICOLO, R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Terradas, J</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ASPECTS OF CROWN RECONSTRUCTION AND LEAF MORPHOLOGY IN QUERCUS-ILEX L AND QUERCUS-SUBER L AFTER DEFOLIATION BY LYMANTRIA-DISPAR L</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ACTA OECOLOGICA-OECOLOGIA PLANTARUM</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">defoliation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">herbivory</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaf damage</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus suber</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1989</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">GAUTHIER-VILLARS</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">S P E S-JOURNAL DEPT, 120 BD ST GERMAIN, F-75006 PARIS, FRANCE</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">69-78</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The effect of a complete defoliation of the evergreen Quercus ilex L. ssp ilex and Quercus suber L. by Lymantria dispar on some variables of sprout development and leaf morphology was studied.

Only the fragments cultured in October reacted. The neoformations only appeared on calluses that had not been subcultured for 7 months. Primary nodules arising on these calluses were removed and subcultured on the same medium either in the dark or in the light. In the dark only, they produced secondary nodules, which were the source of somatic embryos both in light and dark. Presently, they seem to regulate their structure in the dark but they do not develop in a way that leads to germination.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">doi: 10.1139/b89-139doi: 10.1139/b89-139The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: NRC Research Press</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%">CANADELL, J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Riba, M</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Andres, P</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biomass Equations for Quercus ilex L. in the Montseny Massif, Northeastern Spain</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%">Allometric equations (voyant)</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">biomass</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Northeastern Spain</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1988</style></year></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">61</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">137-147</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biomass estimation equations for individual holm oak (Quercus ilex spp. ilex) were developed using data from 71 sample trees. Diameter alone was a strong predictor of biomass, but better biomass estimates were obtained when height and crown projection radius were added to the model. In addition to total above-ground dry weight, different biomass components were calculated: stem (greater than 5 cm in diameter), branches 1 to 5 cm in diameter, branches less than 1 cm in diameter, and foliage. Grouping the trees according to height (taller or shorter than 7 m) and aspect (north-and south-facing slopes) resulted in significantly different allometric equations for most of the components considered. Improved estimates were achieved in many cases when D50 (diameter at 0.5 m) was used instead of DBH. Comparison of the results with other published equations developed for Q.ilex and other oaks showed differences, probably due to morphological diversity of trees and different DBH class distribution of samples used.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/forestry/61.2.137</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1093/forestry/61.2.137</style></research-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%">BEISSALAH, Y</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AMIN, T</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">EL HAJZEIN, B</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">NEVILLE, P</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">BERNARD, Janine</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Etude de l'appareil radical de jeunes plants de Chênes verts dont le pivot se développe sans amputation, ni déviation</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ann.

To make up for this difference, a study was begun on a Mediterranean sclerophyllous oak (Quercus ilex L.). The present study defines the developmental characteristics of the root system in young seedling whose tap root has neither been diverted nor amputated and which grows in different ecological conditions (substrates, temperatures). The results obtained can be used as an interpretative guide for the root system’s reactions to both diverting and amputating. These reactions will be described elsewhere. The study was made in R IEDACKER type minirhirotrons (1974) and L AMOND type fog chambers (1975). The root system of holly oak seedlings (fig. 1) consists of one main root (tap root) with positive geotropism and rapid and theoretically unlimited growth, from which thin, usually short, branch roots, either subhorizontal or oblique with slow, limited growth, spread out (fig. 5). The tap root is not rectilinear, but ondulates more or less regulary (fig. 1), both in loosely-packed substrates (peat ou loam) and in the absence of any substrate (fog chamber). The substrate’s resistance to root penetration, therefore, does not cause these ondulations. The largest branch roots generally begin growth on the convex part of the ondulation (fig. 1, B and C). The tap root grows better in peat than in loam or fog chambers (fig. 2). Its growth is subject to different types of fluctuations (fig. 4). It is highly sensitive to thermic variations (fig. 2 and 3). A 5 °C temperature drop (from 25 °C to 20 °C) decreases its growth rate by a quarter in peat and by half in loam (fig. 2). This decrease is lower in fog chambers because of their neutralizing effect. The tap root’s growth rate also fluctuates regardless of temperature, substrate (peat or loam), or lack of substrate (fig. 4). The fluctuation period varies from 2 to 7 days and is probably the expression of an irregular endogenetic rythm. Systematic ablation of branch roots as they appear has not effect on the variations in the tap root’s growth rate. Anatomy also differentiates the tap root from branch roots. The tap root usually has 6 major xylem fascicles (more rarely 4 to 8) directly underneath the cotyledons and connected to them in groups of three per cotyledon (fig. 6). Between these are often extra xylem fascicles which are smaller, connected to the epicotyle and disappear rapidly lower down (fig. 7, A and A’). The major xylem fascicles divide between the 3‘d and T&amp;dquo; centimeter from the cotyledon by enlarging and isolating their wings (fig. 7, A and B) which can result at most in a tripling of the number of xylcm fascicles. These additional fascicles vanish progressively either by fusion and/or reduction up to the 20’&amp;dquo; centimeter from the cotyledon (fig. 7, C). Beyond this, we find the same number of xylem fascicles as at the start, i.e. only major fascicles remain (fig. 7, D). The number of phloem fascicles, at first twice that of the major xylem fascicles in the area of the tap root near the cotyledons (fig. 7, A and B), decreases progressively, generally by fusion, until it equals the latter beyond the 20’&amp;dquo; centimeter from the cotyledon (fig. 7, D). This remarkable fluctuation in fascicle number is probably related to the period of cotyledon influence. It is not present in the branch roots, which have between 3 and 5 xylem fascicles alternating with an equal number of phloem fascicles.</style></abstract></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%">VIGNES, D</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">GASEOUS EXCHANGES AND THEIR REGULATION IN 2 SPECIES OF EVERGREEN OAK (QUERCUS ILEX AND QUERCUS SUBER)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">BULLETIN DE LA SOCIETE BOTANIQUE DE FRANCE-ACTUALITES BOTANIQUES</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">hydric potential</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">photosynthetic production</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Plant physiology</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus suber</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Stomatal conductance</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1988</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SOC BOTANIQUE FRANCE</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">RUE J B CLEMENT, 92296 CHATENAY-MALABRY CEDEX, FRANCE</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">135</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">99-108</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">This article presents a comparison on the physiology (hyrdic potential, stomatal resistances, transpiration, net photosynthesis) of young plants of Quercus ilex and Quercus suber submitted to different temperatures, light environment and water supply. Relative to temperature and light, the two species present similar reactions, although gaseous exchanges are more important on Quercus ilex. On the contrary, they present distinctive differences on water absorption. Quercus ilex have an important transpiration when water supply is not limited, but presents also a good tolerance to low hydric potentials and sufficient stomatal conductance according to photosynthetic production. On Quercus suber, survival seems more important than production : water consumption is relatively reduced at high water potential as good as at low water potential.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></research-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%">Clamens, A.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">THE IMPORTANCE OF TERRITORIAL BEHAVIOR AMONG BLUE TITS (PARUS-CAERULEUS) BREEDING IN A HOLM OAK FOREST</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Revue D Ecologie-La Terre Et La Vie</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biodiversidade</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">breeding pairs</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">France</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">holm oak forests</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">nest-boxes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Parus caeruleus</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1987</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1987///</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;GotoISI&gt;://WOS:A1987H853900005</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">42</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">311 - 320</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">0249-7395</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">In a ringed population of Blue Tits (Parus caeruleus) living in a Holm Oak (Quercus ilex) forest of Languedoc, Southern France, and provided with artificial nest-boxes, territorial behaviour plays a major role in limiting the number of breeding pairs. The experimental removal, or the spontaneous disappearance, of a breeding pair is followed by an increase in size of the territories of the neigbouring pairs, or by the arrival of non-ringed juvenile individuals settling in the vacant territory. In a Holm Oak forest without artificial nest-boxes, territorial behaviour does not play such a role, as the major limiting factor in that case is the number of available tree-holes. Pairs of Blue Tits settled on territories where Downy Oaks (Quercus pubescens) are mixed with Holm Oaks, lay their eggs four days earlier on the average, than Blue Tits breeding in pure Holm Oak forest. However, the number of fledglings per brood, and their body weight at 15 days of age, tend to be smaller. The benefit of a later laying date in pure Holm Oak forest quite likely lies in a better synchronization of the maximum nutritional requirements of the young, and of the period of maximum food availability in the environment.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APSAPSThe following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;label: Biodiversidade</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%">Houssard, C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Escarré, J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Romane, F</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Methods of studing canopy cover of Quercus-ilex coppices</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ACTA OECOLOGICA-OECOLOGIA APPLICATA</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">canopy cover</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1982</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">GAUTHIER-VILLARS</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">S P E S-JOURNAL DEPT, 120 BD ST GERMAIN, F-75006 PARIS, FRANCE</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">53-70</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APS</style></research-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%">Bruno, Franco</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Capannesi, Geraldo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gratani, Loretta</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Manes, Fausto</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Characterization of mineral content in Quercus ilex leaves by photon and neutron activation analysis</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Giornale botanico italiano</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Castelporziano (voyant)</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">leaves and twigs</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">nuclear analysis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Trace Elements</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1980</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Taylor &amp; Francis</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">114</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">175-186</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Abstract As part of a research on the holm oak stand and the Mediterranean « macchia » of Castelporziano, this study has provided the mineral characterization of Quercus ilex leaves by means of photon and neutron activation analysis.

Thus Q. ilex is affected more at 15 °C rather than at 30 °C, while in Q. coccifera, apart from a small increase in anthocyanins, no significant change was observed at 15 °C. On the contrary, at 30 °C significant changes were observed in all studied parameters. Chloroplast pigments decreased generally on the first day and their content either dropped further or increased to reach the control values on the second day.

Reliability as well as time and material requirements were assessed. Thermocouple psychrometry and the pressure chamber technique offer great advantages over refractometry of exchange solutions for the determination of Ψt. The relationship between WSD, Ψo and Ψt was evaluated by means of the «pressure-volume curve« technique in the modification of Talbot et al. (1975). While the direct comparison of the cryoscopically determined osmotic potential and the psychrometrically determined total water potential suggests the occurrence of negative turgor, this evidence appears doubtful after a scrutiny of the pressure-volume curves. Some advantages of this evaluation technique are emphasized: osmotic relations may be analyzed in organs where the cryoscopic technique cannot be applied, e.g. in stem disks; linear regressions may be calculated for data from cryoscopy and vapour pressure osmometry as well as from different Ψt-techniques; and curves may be extrapolated to high WSDs, whereas direct determinations are not feasible with most of methods due to technical limitations.</style></abstract></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%">de Dominicis, Vincenzo</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Inquadramento fitosociologico delle leccete dei dintorni di Siena</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Giornale botanico italiano</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phytosociological study</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Southern France</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1973</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Taylor &amp; Francis</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">107</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">249-262</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Abstract A phytosociological study of the Quercus ilex woods in the surroundings of Siena (Italy). Numerous stands of Quercus ilex woods around Siena have been studied phytosociologically and compared to the better known similar forests of Southern France. As a rule the Siennese Quercus ilex woods (Table 1) can not be considered to belong to the association Quercetum mediterraneo-montanum Br.-Bl. 1936 because of the absence of various significant central European and montane species, nor to Quercetum galloprovinciale because of the presence of too great a number of Quercetalia pubescenti-petraeae and Querco-Fagetea species. Only rarely communities similar to the first mentioned association have been found: i.e. on Mount Cetona at 1.800 feet and in two particularly cool and humid localities at a lower height (Table 2). Taking into account the way these woods have been managed for centuries it can be concluded that they are mixed formations of Quercetum galloprovinciale and an oakwood association belonging to the order Quercetalia pubescenti-petraeae; the exploitation techniques have caused the evergreen oak to become dominant therefore creating conditions favourable to the more thermophilous and shade loving plants characterics of Q. ilex woods and at the same time bringing about a sharp decrease in the number of the light demanding species typical of deciduous oakwoods.</style></abstract></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%">LARCHER, W</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">INCREASE IN ABILITY TO BECOME FROST-RESISTANT DURING AGEING IN QUERCUS ILEX</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PLANTA</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">frost hardiness</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">resistance pattern</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1969</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SPRINGER VERLAG</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">175 FIFTH AVE, NEW YORK, NY 10010</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">88</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">130--&amp;</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shoots of Quercus ilex gain more efficient ability to become frost- hardened in winter during the course of ageing.

But the greater exten- sion is rejoined in the band from 8o0 and 95 ° m. This limitation above and especially below those levels is to be considered actual and caused only by man. The examination of the flowering records permits the arrange- ment of the forests of Quercus ilex of the Southern Apennines and Sicily in a new association: the Querco-Teucrietum siculi, that here seems the only representative also of the Quercion ilicis. It borders upon the associations of the Oleo-Ceratonion in the lower part and upon those of the Quercion pubescenti- petraeae in the higher part and often immediately with those of the F a gi o n. The elements of the physical environment of the present and potential surfaces of the association are distinguished in geologi- cal-pedologicals and climatics. The substratum pedogenetic is very variable therefore it doesn't seem determinant for the normal development of the Qu e r c o- T e u c r ie t u m sicu li. The factors of the climate result instead determinant. At the lowest levels the limit is formed by the temperatures too high and the excessive drought. At the highest levels the limitant element is especially formed by the high atmospherical dampness, especially in the form of fogs. It is said that the association finds favourable conditions where the index of DE MARTONNE is included between 25 and 35, or little more. The geographical area of the association for the moment is not sufficiently delineated. The dynamic series also connected with it are yet little determined. The outline of the soil can be considered of type A/C. The charac- teristics of the horizons lead to think that they are types of &quot;brown Mediterranean soil of the xerophitic forest&quot;. The Querco-Teucrietum siculi, on the basis of ecological characteristics of the environment, can be considered intermediate between the Quercetum ilicis galloprovinciale (replaced from the associations of the Oleo-Ceratonion) and the Querce- turn mediterraneo-montanum, that, much probably, are lacking in the Southern Apennines.</style></abstract></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%">LARCHER, W</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MAIR, B</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">TEMPERATURE RESISTANCE AS AN ECO-PHYSIOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTIC OF PLANTS .1.

The wood consists partly of a degraded bushy vegetation. The wood was visited eleven times during the year and each time species found flowering were noted (Table at pp 296?301): the greatest number of them, many being therothytes, was found on April 21rst (fig. 2) with about a month's delay in comparison with Palestine (Gindel). In May there is a considerable i decrease in number of species flowering. In summer and winter, because of drought and low temperature very few species, mostly geophytes, were found flowering, and only slightly but markedly more in Autum.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2-4</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Taylor &amp; Francis</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%">Delfine, Antonia</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Residui di Leccete pure e miste sulla Murgia di Putignano</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Giornale botanico italiano</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Puglia</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus ilex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">residues</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1952</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Taylor &amp; Francis</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">59</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">378-387</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Purpose of this paper is to point out the residues of Quercus Ilex woods in the hilly region of Murgia di Putignano (Puglia) which lies inside the distribution area of Q. trojana, now the main wood-forming tree-species of this territory.

The present study deals with the anatomical characters of the wood ring of Q. pubescens and of Q. Ilex. In both the specimens the wood of the stem and of the young branch has been investigated. In both plants studied the cambial tissue of the stem starts dividing at the end of April, reaching its maximum activity from May to June. On the contrary the cambium of the branch differentiates in Q. pubescens a month earlier (18 March-18 April) than in Q. Ilex (18 April-18 May). While in the branch of Q. Ilex a false ring can be seen corresponding to the autumn months, nothing of the kind is found in the branch of Q. pubescens; though it presents a false ring in the stem. It is difficult to date clearly the period when the cambium stops its activity, but probably it happens at the end of August in the samples of the stem. The leaf buds of Q. pubescens and of Q. Ilex open during April-May and the young branch is completely developed at the end of June. In both oaks some buds open in autumn, but the small branches are prevented to develop because of the cold. No comparison can be made between the opening of the buds and the beginning of the cambial activity in the stem and in the branch. Considering the evolution of these woods and their relationship to climatic factors, we can see that the cambial activity starts during a period of remarkable rainfall and of regular increase of temperature, and stops almost completely at the end of July, when temperature and dryness reach their highest values. The autumn rainfall would favour again a cambial activity, but the values of the temperature, regularly decreasing, do not allow it.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">doi: 10.1080/11263505009431489</style></notes><research-notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">doi: 10.1080/11263505009431489</style></research-notes></record></records></xml>
