By the method of harvesting sampling trees, the information of aboveground biomass in 34 plots of a Larix olgensis plantation were collected, of which, the information from 29 plots was selected and fitted with stand factors and TM image RS factors, respectively to establish biomass models, and the information from the rest 5 plots was used to verify the models accuracy. The aboveground biomass in the Larix olgensis plantation could be linearly fitted with either stand factors or RS factors. For the young-middle aged trees, the estimation accuracy of stand factors model was higher (P(stand) = 94.33%), and the test error was smaller (MRE(stand) = 6%), compared with RS factors model (P(RS) = 92.32% , MRE(RS) = 31%). If only the middle-aged trees were taken into account, the estimation effect of the two models had no significant different (error sum E(stand) = 329.9 t, E(RS) = 313.6 t). Overall, the stand factors model was better for the estimation of Larix olgensis cortex, wood, and stumpage biomass, while the RS factors model was better for the estimation of middle-aged trees leaf, flower, fruit, branch, and crown biomass.

Latitudinal responses of litter decomposition to solar radiation.

Photodegradation driven by solar radiation has been confirmed as an important driving factor for litter decomposition. However, previous single-site studies could not quantify the relative contribution of variation in solar radiation to litter decomposition. To address it, we conducted a field experiment in Heshan National Field Research Station of Forest Ecosystem, Guangdong (Heshan Station, south subtropical climate), Jigongshan Ecological Research Station, Xinyang, Henan (Jigongshan Station, north subtropical climate) and Daqinggou Ecological Research Station, Institute of Applied Ecology, Chinese Academy of Sciences (Daqinggou Station, temperate climate) at intervals of 10 degrees.

Caffeic acid: A game changer in pine wood nematode overwintering survival.

Mol Plant Pathol

Key Laboratory of Alien Forest Pest Detection and Control-Heilongjiang Province, School of Forestry, Northeast Forestry University, Harbin, China.

Article Synopsis
  • Following the invasion of the pine wood nematode (PWN) in northeast China, different species in the Pinaceae family showed varying levels of susceptibility, with Larix olgensis being particularly resilient and experiencing low fatality rates compared to Pinus koraiensis.
  • Research indicated that PWN in L. olgensis had 13.43% less lipid content due to the accumulation of caffeic acid, resulting in decreased overwintering survival rates of the nematodes.
  • The findings suggest that the lower lipid reserves led to stunted growth in PWNs, which helped explain the minimal fatalities in L. olgensis, indicating that targeting caffeic acid pathways may help manage PWN in forest ecosystems.
