Compartmentalization: A Conceptual Framework for Understanding How Trees Grow and Defend Themselves

TL;DR: A conceptual framework for understanding how trees grow and how they and other perennial plants defend themselves is described, derived from detailed studies of the gross morphology and cellular anatomy of the wood and bark of roots and stems in healthy angiosperms and gymnosperms.
Journal ArticleDOI

A wound-associated suberized barrier to the spread of decay in the sapwood of oak (Quercus robur L.)

TL;DR: In the vicinity of major pruning wounds on oak the first wood formed after wounding was anatomically distinct from that laid down previously, and corresponds to wall 4 of the compartmentalization of decay in trees (CODIT) hypothesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Developmental stages and fine structure of surface callus formed after debarking of living lime trees (Tilia sp.).

TL;DR: A light and transmission electron microscopy study of living lime trees found that the formation of a surface callus is subdivided into three stages, and a cambial zone develops between the wound periderm and the xylem tissue laid down prior to wounding.

Host Attributes Affecting Patterns of Decay in a Regrowth Eucalypt Forest - V. Barrier Zones

J. Wilkes
- 01 Jan 1986 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the physicochemical properties of barrier zones, formed at the hole cambium in response to artificial injury, in Eucalyptus bancroftii, E. macrorhyncha and E. sideroxylon.

Chemistry, Biochemistry, and Function of Suberin and Associated Waxes

TL;DR: In this article, it has been shown that suberized walls contain an insoluble polymeric material called suberin, which is associated with a complex mixture of nonpolar compounds collectively called waxes.
