• A comparison of five methods to assess embolism resistance in trees 

      Sergent, Anne Sophie; Varela, Santiago Agustin; Barigah, T.S.; Badel, E.; Cochard, H.; Dalla Salda, Guillermina; Delzon, S.; Fernandez, María Elena; Guillemont, J.; Gyenge, Javier; Lamarque, L.J.; Martinez Meier, Alejandro; Rozenberg, P.; Torres Ruiz, J.M; Martin St Paul, N.K. (Elsevier, 2020-04)
      Vulnerability to drought-induced embolism is a key trait that shapes drought resistance and that could be increasingly used to design climate-smart forest management guidelines and to anticipate the outcome of climate ...
    • Functional relationships between wood structure and vulnerability to xylem cavitation in races of Eucalyptus globulus differing in wood density 

      Barotto, Antonio José; Monteoliva, Silvia Estela; Gyenge, Javier; Martinez Meier, Alejandro; Fernandez, María Elena (Oxford University Press, 2018-02)
      Wood density can be considered as a measure of the internal wood structure, and it is usually used as a proxy measure of other mechanical and functional traits. Eucalyptus is one of the most important commercial forestry ...
    • New insights into wood anatomy and function relationships: how Eucalyptus challenges what we already know 

      Fernandez, María Elena; Barotto, Antonio José; Martinez Meier, Alejandro; Gyenge, Javier; Teson, Natalia; Quiñones Martorello, Adriana; Merlo, Esther; Dalla Salda, Guillermina; Rozenberg, Philippe; Monteoliva, Silvia (Elsevier, 2019-12-15)
      Multispecies surveys have shown that there is a weak but significant trade-off between xylem efficiency and safety in woody species, with no species maximizing both attributes at the same time. Relationships between xylem ...
    • Stand density management diagrams of Eucalyptus Viminalis: predicting stem volume, biomass and canopy cover for different production purposes 

      Gyenge, Javier; Lupi, Ana Maria; Ferrere, Paula; Milione, Germán Marcelo; Martinez Meier, Alejandro; Caballe, Gonzalo; Dominguez Daguer, Diego; Fernandez, María Elena (Universidade Federal de Lavras, 2019-12-13)
      Stand density management diagrams (SDMD) provide a guide for forest density management taking into account stands attributes such as trees´ diameter or volume. One of the most common species planted in Pampean plains of ...
    • Wood density and anatomy of three Eucalyptus species: implications for hydraulic conductivity 

      Barotto, Antonio José; Monteoliva, Silvia; Gyenge, Javier Enrique; Martinez Meier, Alejandro; Moreno, Karen; Teson, Natalia; Fernandez, Marí­a Elena (2017)
      Aim of the study: To characterize wood anatomical traits of three Eucalyptus species that differ in wood density and ecological requirements, and to examine the relationships between some anatomical features, wood density, ...
