Abstract:
... Standard correlation approaches in dendroclimatology provide limited scope to elucidate differences between years in timing of growth initiation and cessation. In the Southern Hemisphere (SH), with relatively few long-term climate reconstructions, a clearer understanding of signals contained in ring width variation is of particular importance. In this study, we monitored growth in detail at two si ...

Abstract:
... Schizolobium parahyba is a tropical species that has expanded its distribution. However, little is known about its ecological performance beyond the tropics. Therefore, the objective of this research was to describe for this species, south of its original distribution, intra-annual variations in primary growth phenology (leaf flushing, leaf shedding, flowering and fruiting) and secondary growth (r ...

Abstract:
... Some gymnosperms, including Cryptomeria japonica, exhibit needle reddening caused by red xanthophyll pigment, rhodoxanthin accumulation during long-term cold acclimation. Although photoprotective role of rhodoxanthin, serves as a “sunscreen”, was proposed, the key environmental and/or physiological factors involved in rhodoxanthin accumulation remain unclear. We exposed C. japonica trees to four d ...

Abstract:
... Vegetation gradients, such as those between savanna and seasonally dry tropical forest (SDTF) vegetations, may experience nearly identical macroclimatic conditions but still differ because of local ecological filters selecting for distinct plant functional aspects related to water storage and use. We examined how leaf phenology, water potential, wood density, and wood saturated water content varie ...

Abstract:
... Tropical fish stocks are perceived not to exhibit seasonality in growth. For this reason the standard von Bertalanffy growth function (VBGF) has been used widely to fit the growth of tropical fish populations compared to the seasonally-oscillating VBGF (soVBGF), which is seldom used in tropical fisheries. To advocate for the use of the soVBGF in assessment of tropical fish stocks, this study compa ...

Abstract:
... The in-season dynamics of potato tuber biomass (TTB) growth requires effective nitrogen (N) control. This hypothesis was tested in 2006 and 2007. The two-factorial experiment with two rates of N (60, 120 kg ha⁻¹) and sulfur (S; 0, 50 kg ha⁻¹) was carried out in the split-plot design. The third factor was the sampling of plants at 10-day intervals. The collected plant material was divided into leav ...
