There are many log and wood properties of interest to wood processors. There is also high
variability in important attributes between and within growing regions and between and …

We investigated the genetic control of wood properties as a function of cambial age to
enable improvement of juvenile wood attributes in white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) …

Abstract Pinus Pinaster Ait. is a softwood species indigenous of the South West of Europe,
broadly spread alongside the Mediterranean Sea and present worldwide. Pinus Pinaster …

Western Iberia has recently shown increasing frequency of drought conditions coupled with
heatwave events, leading to exacerbated limiting climatic conditions for plant growth. It is not …

The reduction of resinous species in Portuguese forest areas has caused constraints to
wood industry supplies. Portugal represents the extreme southwest of Scots pine (Pinus …

Heterogeneous environments, such as mountainous landscapes, create spatially varying
selection pressure that potentially affects several traits simultaneously across different life …

Abstract Key message In Europe, P. nigra wood presents a density pattern of longitudinal
variation with an increase from east to west. However, no latitudinal tendencies were …

Introduction Tree breeding is giving an increasing attention to wood properties in order to
better fit the requirements of the saw, board, pulp and paper industries. In particular, it has …

Oleoresin samples collected directly from living-trees by three different tapping methods,
and from four geographical origins were analyzed using two gas chromatography (GC) …

Each annual ring in pines consists of earlywood and latewood with considerable difference
in density and width. To get a better determination of the genetic regulation of total wood …
