Pre-commercial thinning enhances competitive traits of boreal ericaceous shrubs and reduces soil fertility

by Marie-Claude Boileau | 7 October 2020

Published in Forest Ecology and Management 458: 117801. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foreco.2019.117801 Boreal ericaceous shrubs, such as Kalmia angustifolia, have evolved various traits allowing them to interfere with the growth of conifer trees. These include the...

Nine years of in situ soil warming and topography impact the temperature sensitivity and basal respiration rate of the forest floor in a Canadian boreal forest

by Marie-Claude Boileau | 7 October 2020

Published in PLOS ONE 14(12): e0226909. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0226909 The forest floor of boreal forest stores large amounts of organic C that may react to a warming climate and increased N deposition. It is therefore crucial to assess the impact of...

Modelling wood density and modulus of elasticity in white spruce plantations in Eastern Québec

by Marie-Claude Boileau | 7 October 2020

Published in The Forestry Chronicle 95(3): 196-206. https://doi.org/10.5558/tfc2019-028 Forest managers have to take into account multiple objectives such as stand yield, wood quality attributes, ecological constraints and social considerations when making their...

Phytochemicals involved in plant resistance to leporids and cervids: a systematic review

by Audrey Verreault | 7 October 2020

Published in Journal of Chemical Ecology 46(1): 84-98. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10886-019-01130-z Non-nutritive phytochemicals (secondary metabolites and fibre) can influence plant resistance to herbivores and have ecological impacts on animal and plant population...

Genomic prediction for hastening and improving efficiency of forward selection in conifer polycross mating designs: an example from white spruce

by Svetlana Savin | 7 October 2020

Published in Heredity 124: 562–578. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41437-019-0290-3 Genomic selection (GS) has a large potential for improving the prediction accuracy of breeding values and significantly reducing the length of breeding cycles. In this context, the choice of...
