Potassium (K) and magnesium (Mg) are essential macro-nutrients, but little is known about how they are cycled within plants. Stable isotope studies have shown that the internal cycling of nitrogen (N) is independent of current nutrient supply in temperate tree species. This is ecologically

In ectomycorrhizae, the relative abilities of mycobiont and host plant to take up and store inorganic nutrients are not easily determined due to the intimate physical relationship of the two components forming the association. Since compartmental analysis of solute elution can estimate cellular

Seasonal profiles of sulphur, phosphorus, and potassium content in the wood of trees have been established for the first time. This became possible by using a novel laser ablation system coupled to HR-ICP-MS for measuring these elements in Norway spruce drill cores. This technique combines excellent

The effects of potassium fertilization and ozone stress were investigated in a clone of Picea abies (L.) Karst, by studies of the uptake of CO(2) by the crowns, the element content, on leaching of the youngest needles, and the longevity of the needles. All plants were exposed to 0.075 microl

The nutrient relations (nitrogen, magnesium, calcium, potassium, and manganese) of the xylem sap of spruce trees, Picea abies (L.) Karst., growing at a healthy and a declining site in Northern Bavaria, were followed on a diurnal and seasonal basis between April and October 1985. There were

Seasonal variations in foliar ¹³⁷Cs levels were examined in Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.), and Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) in western Finland. Our aim was to test the occurrence of seasonal variation in contents and concentrations of ¹³⁷Cs, potassium and carbon in needles. The study

We investigated fungal growth and community composition in buried meshbags, amended with apatite, biotite or hornblende, in Norway spruce (Picea abies) forests of varying nutrient status. Norway spruce needles and soil collected from forests overlying serpentinite had low levels of potassium and

Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) seedlings growing in a growth pouch system were used to investigate the effects of the ectomycorrhizal fungus Hebeloma crustuliniforme (Bull. ex St. Amans) Quél. and various Cs/K ratios on the uptake of (134)Cs, expressed as a percentage of the total amount of

The pharmacological profile of the lignan 7-hydroxymatairesinol (HMR/lignan, HMR) includes chemopreventive effects, antioxidant properties, and mild proestrogenic activity. The present study was devised to investigate the effects of HMR on THP-1 cells, an established model of human monocytes, and on

Lignans are plant polyphenols which may possess anticancer, antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activities. In particular, the lignan 7-hydroxymatairesinol (HMR/lignan, HMR) is a novel precursor of the mammalian lignan enterolactone (EL). In the present study, we

Needle development and shoot growth were studied in 14- and 20-year-old Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis (Bong.) Carr.) planted on an oligotrophic peat and fertilized with N, P and K (control), N and P (-K), N and K (-P) or unfertilized (-NPK). Shoot extension, needle number, and the size and number

Since the early 1980s, the winter moth, Operophtera brumata L. (Lepidoptera: Geometridae) has emerged as a serious pest of Sitka Spruce, Picea sitchensis Bong. plantations in southern Scotland. Outbreaks are characterised by susceptible sites within plantations which can occur immediately adjacent

Black spruce (Picea mariana), white spruce (Picea glauca) and jack pine (Pinus banksiana) were inoculated with Suillus tomentosus and subjected to potassium fluoride (1 mM KF and 5 mM KF) in the presence and absence of 60 mM NaCl. The NaCl and KF treatments reduced total dry weights in jack pine and

UNASSIGNED ) of treatment, affecting yields and properties of extracted oligosaccharides. In this study, steam explosion was used to extract oligosaccharides from Norway spruce wood chips soaked with sodium citrate and potassium phosphate buffers with pH of 4.0-7.0. Yields, monosaccharide

The effects of four Picea asperata plantations with different ages (50-, 38-, 27- and 20-year-old), in subalpine of western Sichuan, on the characteristics of soil microbial diversity and microbial community structure were studied by the method of phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) profiles. The results
