Araucaria araucana and Salix humboldtiana: Two Species Highly Appreciated by the Society with Domestication Potential
(Springer, 2021)Pewen, Araucaria araucana (Molina) K. Koch (also known as monkey puzzle tree), is a dioecious large-seeded emergent conifer endemic to the northern region of the temperate forests of Argentina and Chile. The species ... -
Deciphering the transcriptomic regulation of heat stress responses in Nothofagus pumilio
(Plos One, 2021-03-30)Global warming is predicted to exert negative impacts on plant growth due to the damaging effect of high temperatures on plant physiology. Revealing the genetic architecture underlying the heat stress response is therefore ... -
Differential response of natural regeneration to silvopastoral use intensity in mixed forests of northern Patagonia, Argentina
(Elsevier, 2022-07-07)Silvopastoral use (combined livestock and forestry) is widely distributed in South America’s native forests. Without medium to long-term planning, this activity may affect the population dynamics of the dominant canopy ... -
Genetic diversity and population structure in Nothofagus pumilio, a foundation species of Patagonian forests: defining priority conservation areas and management
(Springer Nature, 2020-11)Patagonian forests are the southernmost temperate forests in the world, and Nothofagus pumilio is one of their most ecologically important tree species (i.e., a foundation species). It presents great adaptability and a ... -
Low Intensity Breeding of Native Forest Trees in Argentina : Genetic Basis for their Domestication and Conservation
(Springer Nature, 2021)The first genetic studies on forest trees in Argentina were carried out with exotic fast-growing species and in relation to their productive use. These antecedents, conducted mainly by the National Institute of Agricultural ... -
Nothofagus pumilio and N. antarctica: The Most Widely Distributed and Cold-Tolerant Southern Beeches in Patagonia
(Springer, 2021)Nothofagus pumilio (Poepp. & Endl.) Krasser, known as lenga, and Nothofagus antarctica (G. Forster) Oerster, commonly called ñire, are tree species of the temperate forests of southern South America, occurring in temperate-rainy ... -
Patagonian Cypress (Austrocedrus chilensis): The Cedarwood of the Emblematic Architecture of North Patagonia
(Springer, 2021)The Patagonian cypress Austrocedrus chilensis (D. Don) Pic. Serm. & Bizzarri, also known as Chilean cedar, is a dioecious, anemophilous, and anemochorous conifer (Cupressaceae), native to Argentina and Chile. In Argentina, ... -
Patagonian ñire (Nothofagus antarctica) combined with green tea - Novel beverage enriched in bioactive phytochemicals as health promoters
(Wiley, 2022-09)Background: Polyphenol-enriched tea is an interesting product for food industries under the current consumer demands. This study aimed at evaluating the Nothofagus antarctica (NA) species as a valuable source of bioactive ... -
Questions, Perspectives and Final Considerations of Planting Native Species Under the Climate Change Conditioning
(Springer, 2021)There is a growing interest in Argentina (and in the world) for planting native tree species. This has triggered the development of domestication programs for those species with greater productive potential or a key ... -
Roble pellín (Nothofagus obliqua): A Southern Beech with a Restricted Distribution Area But a Wide Environmental Range in Argentina
(Springer, 2021)Nothofagus obliqua (Mirb.) Oerst. (Nothofagaceae, Hill and Jordan 1993), known as ‘roble’, ‘pellín’, ‘roble pellín’ or ‘hualle’, is a tree species endemic to South American temperate forests. It is under protection in ... -
Temperate Subantarctic Forests: A Huge Natural Laboratory
(Springer, 2021)In the southern tip of South America, temperate subantarctic forests develop on both sides of the Andes mountain range. Known in Argentina as Andean-Patagonian forests, these ecosystems cover a narrow but long latitudinal ... -
Water-mediated changes in plant–plant and biological soil crust–plant interactions in a temperate forest ecosystem
(Copernicus Publications, 2019-04-09)In the quest to understand how biotic interactions respond to climate change, one area that remains poorly explored is how interactions involving organisms other than vascular plants will respond. However the interactions ...
