Book The Induced Chemical Defenses of Norway Spruce  Picea Abies  L  Karst

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Methyl jasmonate, a well-known inducer of plant defense responses, was used to manipulate the biochemistry and anatomy of mature Picea abies (Norway spruce) stems. The aim of this study was to investigate if this treatment protected trees against attack by the blue-stain fungus Ceratocystis polonica [(Siem.) C. Moreau], the spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus L.) and the white pine weevil (Pissodes strobi Peck.). Application of methyl jasmonate lead to several biochemical and anatomical changes and the results suggest that induced defenses such as formation of traumatic resin ducts, enhancement of resin flow, and increased accumulation of volatile terpenes and diterpene resin acids, all triggered by application of jasmonates, play a significant role in Norway spruce defense against multiple enemies. The results also confirmed that the jasmonate pathway directly regulates the formation of these induced defenses.

Book Defense Mechanisms of Woody Plants Against Fungi

Download or read book Defense Mechanisms of Woody Plants Against Fungi written by Robert A. Blanchette and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the past decade, it has been apparent to both of us that a reference text covering all aspects of tree defense mechanisms to fungi was missing, needed and long overdue. Such a book would provide a clear, comprehensive overview of how living roots, stems and leaves respond to fungal pathogens. The need for such a book became in creasingly clear to us from our conversations with each other, as well as from our interactions with students and colleagues who desired a sourcebook containing reviews of morphological, biochemical and physiological aspects of host-parasite interactions in trees. During a field trip sponsored by the Forest Pathology Committee of the Ameri can Phytopathological Society, on a bus from one site to another, we decided to take the responsibility to prepare a book of this type and began to plan its composition. To adequately address the topic of this book as we had envisioned it, we believed that well-illustrated chapters were needed in order to reflect the important advances made by the many investigators who have examined the anatomical and physiological changes that occur when trees are attacked by fungi. We are grateful to Dr. Tore Timell, the Wood Science editor for Springer-Verlag, for supporting our efforts and for providing an avenue to publish such a profusely il lustrated volume.

  • Author : Ilga M. Porth

  • ISBN : 3030210014
  • Pages : 225 pages

Download or read book The Spruce Genome written by Ilga M. Porth and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers comprehensive information on the genomics of spruces (Picea spp.), naturally abundant conifer tree species that are widely distributed in the Northern Hemisphere. Due to their tremendous ecological and economic importance, the management of forest genetic resources has chiefly focused on conservation and tree improvement. A draft genome sequence of the 20-gigabase Norway spruce genome was published in the journal Nature in 2013. Continuous efforts to improve the spruce genome assembly are underway, but are hindered by the inherent characteristics of conifer genomes: high amounts of repetitive sequences (introns and transposable elements) in the genome and large gene family expansions with regards to abiotic stress, secondary metabolism and spruces' defense responses to pathogens and herbivory. This book presents the latest information on the status of genome assemblies, provides detailed insights into transposable elements and methylation patterns, and highlights the extensive genomic resources available for inferring population genomics and climate adaptation, as well as emerging genomics tools for tree improvement programs. In addition, this volume features whole-genome comparisons among conifer species, and demonstrates how functional genomics can be used to improve gene function annotations. The book closes with an outlook on emerging fields of research in spruce genomics.

Book Defense Mechanisms of Woody Plants Against Fungi

Download or read book Defense Mechanisms of Woody Plants Against Fungi written by Robert A. Blanchette and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1992-01-01 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Defense mechanisms against fungi in bark, xylem, roots, and foliage of woodyangiosperms and gymnosperms are addressed in this newest addition to the SPRINGER SERIES IN WOOD SCIENCE. The topic is approached from an anatomical and physiological perspective with emphasis on the relationships betweenplant structure and function and their role in defensive reactions and woundrepair. Contributions on the biochemistry of defensive reactions, in-depth treatises on specific diseases such as Dutch elm disease, Hypoxylon canker of aspen, and Fusiform rust of pines, as well as chapters on wound reactions in bark tissues, microenvironmental aspects of xylem decay, the role of mycorrhizzal fungi in defense, physiological responses of trees to fungal symbionts of insects, and the application of tissue culture and immunocytochemistry to the study of defense mechanisms in trees are included. One of the most significantfeatures of the book is the large complement of photographic plates which serves to bring together a plethora of histopathological data.
