Fungus–plant interactions in Aptian Tropical Equatorial Hot arid belt: White rot in araucarian wood from the Crato fossil Lagerstätte (Araripe Basin, Brazil)

TL;DR: Analysis of fungus–plant interactions associated with growth ring patterns imply intermittent periods of favorable temperature-moisture inputs that were crucial for fungal activity during the deposition of the Crato fossil Lagerstatte included in the Tropical Equatorial Hot arid belt.

Promoting a standardized description of fossil tracheidoxyls

TL;DR: In this paper, a plea that etymology should definitely no longer be considered diagnostic was made, and a standardized format for the description of fossil tracheidoxyls was proposed.

The transfer of radiocesium from the bark to the stemflow of chestnut trees (Castanea crenata) contaminated by radionuclides from the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant accident.

TL;DR: A strong positive correlation was observed between the radiocesium concentration and the electrical conductivity of the dissolved fraction of the stemflow; this result suggests that radiocisium and electrolytes have the same elution mechanism from the tree.

Composition and paleoenvironment of wetland forests dominated by Glyptostrobus and Metasequoia in the latest Pliocene (2.6 Ma) in central Japan

TL;DR: In this article, a latest Pliocene (2.6-Ma) wetland forest vegetation that was dominated by Glyptostrobus and Metasequoia was reconstructed from in situ woods, fruits and seeds, and pollen assemblages in deposits of the Kobiwako Group exposed in the Yasu River, Shiga Prefecture, central Japan.

Application of artificial neural networks as a predictive method to differentiate the wood of Pinus sylvestris L. and Pinus nigra Arn subsp. salzmannii (Dunal) Franco

TL;DR: In this paper, a feedforward multilayer perceptron network trained by the resilient backpropagation algorithm was designed to determine whether the network could be used to differentiate these species with a high degree of probability.

Vertical resin ducts in the secondary wood of the abietineae

TL;DR: Character of the tissue associated with the ducts and its interpretation and distribution at wounds andPhylogenetic interpretations and fossil evidence are presented.

Outdoor wood weathering and protection.

TL;DR: The natural weathering process causes exposed wood to discolour and degrade through the effect of light, moisture and staining micro-organisms as mentioned in this paper, but since light does not penetrate wood deeper than 200 mm, degradations reactions are a surface phenomenon.
