Japanese oak wilt (Raffaelea quercivora) is a vector-borne disease transmitted by the flying ambrosia beetle, Platypus quercivorus, and causes mass mortality in the fagaceous species of Japan. The data described in this article are available in Mendeley Data, DOI: 10.17632/xwj98nb39r.1 [1] and include the mortality status of 1089 Quercus crispula and 846 Quercus serrata trees and surrounding fo...

ß-Glucogallin (1 -O-galloyl-ß-D-glucopyranose), 1,6-Di-O-galloyl-ß-D-glucopyranose, Acyltransferase, Gallotannin Biosynthesis, Quercus robur Cell-free extracts from oak (Quercus robur) leaves catalyze the transfer of the galloyl-moiety of ß-glucogallin (1-O-galloyl-ß-D-glucopyranose) specifically to the 6-position of the same compound, yielding 1,6-di-O-galloyl-ß-D-glucopyranose, an intermediat...

The impact of regional and local weather and of local topography on intradiurnal variations in airborne pollen levels was assessed by analysing bi-hourly holm oak (Quercus ilex subsp. ballota (Desf.) Samp.) pollen counts at two sampling stations located 40 km apart, in southwestern Spain (Cordoba city and El Cabril nature reserve) over the period 2010-2011. Pollen grains were captured using Hir...

J. Econ. Entomo!. 79: 1276-1279 (1986) ABSTRACT In 1984-85 free-flying nitidulids were trapped in centers of oak wilt, Ceratocystis fagacearum (Bretz) Hunt, for 1 year at six locations in central Texas. Two of the 10 species identified, Cryptarcha concinna Melsheimer and Coiopterus maculatus (Erichson), accounted for 57 and 35%, respectively, of the total number (3,397) of beetles trapped. Peak...

The white oaks Quercus gambelii and Q. grisea overlap in distribution in New Mexico and Arizona. Within the region of overlap, there are numerous instances of contact between the two taxa. In some areas of contact morphologically, intermediate trees are common, whereas in others, morphologically intermediate trees are rare or absent. We describe a set of RAPD markers that distinguish between th...

physiological factors have effects on most forest parameters such as forest classification so that understanding knowledge about this subject is important to manage forests. the forests of sorkhake-sanjabi village with area of 1645 ha located in eslam abad city, kermanshah province, iran were selected. 23 sample plots with rectangular shape (40m*50m) were selected and the species, origin of spe...
