Differential responses of silver birch (Betula pendula) ecotypes to short-day photoperiod and low temperature.
We investigated interrelations of dormancy and freezing tolerance and the role of endogenous abscisic acid (ABA) in the development of silver birch (Betula pendula Roth) ecotypes in controlled environments. Short-day treatment induced growth cessation, bud set and dormancy development, as well as initiation of cold acclimation and an increase in freezing tolerance. Subsequent low temperature an...
متن کاملGenetic transformation of silver birch (Betula pendula) by particle bombardment.
We used in vitro callus and shoot cultures as target material for genetic transformation of silver birch (Betula pendula Roth) by particle bombardment. Cultivation of in vitro shoot cultures before particle bombardment and a long selection period, combined with a high concentration of selective agent after bombardment, led to the production of transformed plantlets that were stable, and no esca...

متن کاملEffects of climate change and simulated herbivory on growth responses and leaf characteristics of silver birch (Betula pendula) seedlings
The main objective of this thesis was to examine the effects of climate change and simulated herbivory (artificial foliage damage) on growth responses and leaf characteristics (chemical and morphological structure and consequent palatability) of silver birch (Betula pendula) seedlings. In order to achieve this target, seedlings were grown in climate controlled closed-top chambers under ambient ...
متن کاملSeasonal and within-stem variations of neutral lipids in silver birch (Betula pendula) wood.
Neutral lipids were analyzed in stem wood of a 7-year-old clone and in five 35-70-year-old mature trees of silver birch (Betula pendula Roth). In young trees and in mature wood of old trees, the free fatty acid fraction comprised less than 5% of the concentration of triacylglycerols (TG). The concentration of free linoleic acid was lowest in March when the young trees were dormant and highest d...
