I love designing these spaces and have found that with a little ingenuity and careful plant selection, they can be as beautiful, inviting and functional as any other part of the garden. One of the keys is adding height with trees. Trees add a punctuation point that emerges from lower planti...

where parallelograms indicate incongruences among gene trees. Branches in orange indicate the japonica-corniculata clade, green indicates other clades inCausonis, and black represents the outgroup
Results from the plantations imply that screening and rejection of unsuitable seedlings before plantation establishment did not influence the genetic divergence of planted trees from the general genetic pool of natural population. Based on these outcomes, numerous conservation measures are proposed, towards...
Southwestern China is one of centers of temperate plant species diversity and endemism (López-Pujol et al., 2011) and well-known glacial refugia for a number of Tertiary relict trees (Zou et al., 2002;Qiu et al., 2011), where logging and agricultural expansion has fragmented lowland forest...
dyeriana bears first fruits at 10 years of age, it only reaches the canopy after ∼ 20 years at which stage the trees acquire their full reproductive potential (Ouyang et al., 2005). If we assume that the generation time is ∼ 25 years, then the divergence time is consistent with a...
Notches were located on the fusion line, where the local brittle zone (LBZ) occurs, at the starting point of failure in the welding part, and at 1 mm away from the fusion line, to confirm the low-temperature toughness of the welding part. In the case of the low-temperature impact test...
