SHRUBSPREDATIONACORNSAcorn predation is a major bottleneck for oak self-regeneration in grazed Mediterranean oak savannahs (dehesas), which lack of shrub cover. Establishing artificial shelters of dead branches (SODBs) could decrease acorn predation by protecting the seeds agai...
While in roots the cells are larger than in trunks, cell size in branches is generally smaller than the corresponding cells produced at the same time in the trunk. A general trend in cell size occurs in the wood of all plants with cambial activity and secondary growth. The trend is of ...
FWD does not include dead branches attached to standing trees or shrubs, dead foliage, bark fragments, or small pieces of decomposed wood. The DDW component of FWD is further divided into 3 sizes classes that align with wildlife behavior modeling widely adopted in North America (e.g. US ...

and asked Lieutenant Hamilton of the marines to post sentries outside the tent to discourage theft. The marines were not under the direct command of the ship’s captain—Lieutenant Hamilton reported to Captain Pemberton of the marines—but the land and sea branches of the military were...
The percentage of 1000 bootstrap replicates in which the associated baculoviruses clustered together is shown next to the branches. For tree showing sequenced genomes of baculoviruses, only topology is presented. For the tree showing phylogeny of Lymantriinae baculoviruses and photolyase relationship are...
1. There are two matureNorway Sprucetrees behind my neighbor’s house, unapologetically present with their droopy branches and cone droppings that land in my yard. One might think I’d find that a nuisance. I’m honestly jealous that the trees are not in my backyard. They are ornamental ev...
WASHINGTON STATE Department of Fish and Wildlife, in this detailed pdf (also available from this link), provides how-to on identifying which trees are snag material (clues like woodpecker holes, fungi on the bark, running sap or die-off in the upper branches are among the hints). It also...
