TL;DR: Seedlings of Ulmus americana, Fraxinus pennsylvanica, Melaleuca quinquenervia, and Eucalyptus camaldulensis exhibited greater morphological adaptation to flooding than did Eucallyptus globulus or Pinus halepensis seedlings.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The comparative success of eleven species including eucalypts, she-oaks and pine in establishment and early growth at four sites with contrasting soils in Victoria in south-eastern Australia underline the potential for utilizing tree plantations in wastewater management.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Organogenesis and shoot production have been achieved with Eucalyptus camaldulensis seedlings cultured on defined nutrient media supplemented with auxin and cytokinin and callus generated buds without any prior transfer to alternate media.

TL;DR: Vast lateral root system of Eucalyptus camoldulensis Dehn may be responsible to utilise even the slighest amount of surface moisture which may be available just below the surface in any form of precipitation.
Abstract: The present investigation was undertaken on 15 year old (1969) and 5 year old (1979) plants of Eucalyptus camoldulensis Dehn raised on the area of Regional Forest Research Centre, Jabalpur. The entire area of planlation was divided in 5 equal compartments. Five trees from each compartment were randomly selected and felled for aboveground and belowground biomass studies. Growlh parameters in 15 year old plantation were 2-4 times that of plants in 5 year old plantations. The root length was traced to a depth of less than 3 m in all cases. However, the lateral spread was unimaginably very vast. The mean lateral spread of 20.3 m was observed in 15 year old plants and 9.01 m in 5 year old plants. The propaganda against Eucalyptus that it is responsible for drying-up of underground water reserVe is thus disproved from these studies. These Vast lateral root system, may be responsible to utilise even the slighest amount of surface moisture which may be available just below the surface in any form of precipitation. In terms of mean annual productivIty it was 15.92 t/h/year in 15 year old plants and 6.03 t/h year in 5 year old plants. The maximum contribution to the total aboveground biomass has been observed by stemwood in both plantations.

TL;DR: Trees of Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehn were sampled to determine the weight of the above-ground biomass and double-entry tables were developed from allometric relations to predict oven-dry weights of biomass components.
Abstract: SYNOPSIS Trees of Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehn. with DBH ranging from 4 to 40 cm, were sampled to determine the weight of the above-ground biomass. Double-entry tables were developed from allometric relations to predict oven-dry weights of biomass components, and data are provided to calculate energy contents. The significance of whole-tree utilisation is emphasised.

TL;DR: It seems that spring leaf shedding was induced by atmospheric stress brought on by low air humidity and high temperature, and litter fall in late autumn was influenced by both atmospheric stress and strong winds.
Abstract: The seasonal course of litter fall in Eucalyptus camaldulensis is described. The peak of leaf shedding (40,7% of the annual total) occurred in April-May. Maximal shedding of bark and twigs (47,3% and 36,7% respectively of the annual total) was found in November-December. It seems that spring leaf shedding was induced by atmospheric stress brought on by low air humidity and high temperature. Litter fall in late autumn was influenced by both atmospheric stress and strong winds. The total annual dry weights of the litter components (g/m2) were: leaves, 737; twigs, 196; bark, 92.

TL;DR: Nineteen eucalypt species and provenances and Callitris intratropica were planted in an area restored after mining on Groote Eylandt (Northern Territory) and after 3.5 years, provenances of E. camaldulensis grew slowly and had a low survival rate.
Abstract: Summary Nineteen eucalypt species and provenances and Callitris intratropica were planted in an area restored after mining on Groote Eylandt (Northern Territory). After 3.5 years, provenances of Eucalyptus camaldulensis and E. tereticornis had grown best and were in the height range 4.9 m (se = 0.4, n = 10) for E. camaldulensis (Victoria River, W.A.) to 6.6 m (se = 0.6, n = 10) for E. camaldulensis (Dutton River, Queensland). Species endemic to Groote Eylandt and the one temperate provenance of E. camaldulensis grew slowly and had a low survival rate.
