Phenotypic, genotypic, and transcript level (microarray) data from an interspecific backcross population of Eucalyptus grandis and Eucalyptus globulus were integrated to dissect the genetic and metabolic network underlying growth variation. Transcript abundance, measured for 2,608 genes in the differentiating xylem of a 91 (E. grandis x E. globulus) x E. grandis backcross progeny was correlated...

Autohydrolysis of Eucalyptus globulus was conducted at three different intensity levels typical for prehydrolysis kraft pulping as utilized for manufacturing dissolving pulp grades. The objective was to establish for the autohydrolysis process a detailed mass balance comprising the chemical composition of all three phases: the autohydrolysate, the released gas, and the solid residue. Carbohydra...

Currently in Western Australia, phosphite is being used to contain the root and collar rot pathogen, Phytophthora cinnamomi, in native plant communities. There have been reports of negative effects of phosphite on arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM), so there are concerns that it may have a deleterious effect on other mycorrhizal fungi. Two glasshouse experiments were undertaken to determine the impact ...

Methodology For the selection of the markers, a reference population of 30 unrelated parents for each species of interest (Eucalyptus globulus and Pinus radiata) was used. In these populations, we tested 25 SSR for pinus and 38 SSR for eucalyptus and the best 12 markers were selected for each species. With the selected markers, a pattern or fingerprint of each operational clone was obtained, ou...

Medicinal plant consumption can be a source of human exposure to radioactive elements such as (238)U and (232)Th, which can lead to internal radiation doses. The uptake of (238)U and (232)Th from soils to the leaf samples of three different medicinal plant species (Eucalyptus globulus, Acacia mearnsii and Hyparrhenia filipendula) from the purlieu of the Princess gold mine dump, an abandoned con...

Background Eucalyptus globulus and its hybrids are important for the cellulose and paper industry, mainly due to their relatively low lignin content. However, rooting of cuttings of this species is often recalcitrant and exogenous auxin application is necessary for adventitious root development. Auxin plays a central role in rooting capacity, which is particularly affected by its endogenous con...

Eucalyptus globulus, tanaman penghasil minyak atsiri melalui penyulingan daunnya, telah diteliti dalam konteks pencegahan penyakit komorbid Covid-19. Melalui pencarian literatur di Google Scholar dan Pubmed dengan kata kunci "Tanaman globulus", "Penyakit Komorbid Covid-19", "Covid-19", dilakukan review beberapa artikel terkait. Analisis kromatografi gas (GC-MS) digunakan untuk mengkarakterisasi...

It is known that many abiotic stresses, such as mineral deficiency, drought, UV-B radiation, wind and low temperatures, alter the quantity and composition of lignin in several species [1]. The aim of this work was to verify if the drought stress may cause changes in the quantity and composition of lignin in Eucalyptus globulus Labill and in the hybrids E. urograndis (E. urophylla x E. grandis) ...
