(fagaceae) in 140 trees from taiwan (25 populations), japan (three), ryukyus (two), hong kong (one) and mainland china (one). by sequencing three cpdna intergenic spacer fragments using universal primers (trnt-trnl, trnv-trnm, including the trnv intron, and petg-trnp), we found a total of 1,980 bp and 15 polymorphic sites. among them, 12 sites were caused by point muta ...200212406245
evidence for the existence of some dissociation in an otherwise strong linkage disequilibrium between mitochondrial and chloroplastic genomes in cyclobalanopsis glauca.variations in mitochondrial dna in cyclobalanopsis glauca (thunb. ex murray) oerst. were studied in 140 trees from 32 populations collected from within the tree's natural range. by sequencing two mitochondrial dna intron fragments (nad4/3-nad4/4r and nad7/2-nad7/3r), we revealed a total of 1788 bp and five polymorphic sites which allowed us to distinguish six mitotypes. the mitochondrial dna markers provided replicated data to support population phylogeographical scenarios suggested previously u ...200312969469
relationships between light, leaf nitrogen and nitrogen remobilization in the crowns of mature evergreen quercus glauca trees.we estimated the amount of nitrogen (n) remobilized from 1-year-old leaves at various positions in the crowns of mature quercus glauca thunb. ex murray trees and related this to the production of new shoots. leaf n concentration on an area basis (na) and total n (nt= na x lamina area of all leaves on a shoot) were related to photosynthetic photon flux (ppf) on the leaves of current-year and 1-year-old shoots. when new shoots (s02 shoots; flushed in 2002) flushed, only a portion of the leaves on ...200415294762

the bulk elastic modulus and the reversible properties of cell walls in developing quercus leaves.we examined the relationship between the bulk elastic modulus (epsilon) of an individual leaf obtained by the pressure-volume (p-v) technique and the mechanical properties of cell walls in the leaf. the plants used were quercus glauca and q. serrata, an evergreen and a deciduous broad-leaved tree species, respectively. we compared epsilon and young's modulus of leaf specimens determined by the stretch technique at various stages of their leaf development. the results showed that epsilon increase ...200616571617
source populations of quercus glauca in the last glacial age in taiwan revealed by nuclear microsatellite markers.in this work, we attempted to study genetic differentiation between populations of quercus glauca in taiwan using nuclear microsatellite markers to infer the potential refugium in the last glaciation stage. four microsatellite loci for 20 individuals each in 10 populations of taiwan were analyzed. we found that q. glauca has relatively high within-population diversity (h(e) = 0.741) and low population differentiation (f(st) = 0.042) but shows isolation by distance. the most divergent populations ...200616614134
seasonal fluctuations and temperature dependence of leaf gas exchange parameters of co-occurring evergreen and deciduous trees in a temperate broad-leaved forest.seasonal fluctuations in leaf gas exchange parameters were investigated in three evergreen (quercus glauca thunb., cinnamomum camphora sieb. and castanopsis cuspidata schottky) and one deciduous (quercus serrata thunb.) co-occurring, dominant tree species in a temperate broad-leaved forest. dark respiration rate (rn), maximum carboxylation rate (vcmax) and stomatal coefficient (m), the ratio of stomatal conductance to net assimilation rate after adjustment to the vapor pressure deficit and inter ...200616740493
conservative decrease in water potential in existing leaves during new leaf expansion in temperate and tropical evergreen quercus species.this study aimed at clarifying how the water potential gradient (deltapsi) is maintained in the shoots of evergreen trees with expanding leaves, whose leaf water potentials at the turgor loss point (psi(tlp)) are generally high.200717855379

light acclimation potential and carry-over effects vary among three evergreen tree species with contrasting patterns of leaf emergence and maturation.we compared light acclimation potential among three evergreen broadleaved species with contrasting patterns of shoot elongation, leaf emergence and leaf maturation. understory saplings were transferred to a high-light environment before bud break, grown for 13 months, and then transferred back to the understory to observe subsequent carry-over effects. acclimation potential was highest and sapling mortality was lowest for cinnamomum japonicum sieb. ex nakai. indeterminate growth and successive l ...201121868403
changes in understory species occurrence of a secondary broadleaved forest after mass mortality of oak trees under deer foraging pressure.the epidemic of mass mortality of oak trees by japanese oak wilt has affected secondary deciduous broadleaved forests that have been used as coppices in japan. the dieback of oak trees formed gaps in the crown that would be expected to enhance the regeneration of shade-intolerant pioneer species. however, foraging by sika deer cervus nippon has also affected forest vegetation, and the compound effects of both on forest regeneration should be considered when they simultaneously occur. a field stu ...201628028480
