Competition Impacts on Hybrid Poplar and Implications for Alternative Establishment Systems
DownloadSpring 2015
The effects of different vegetation control practices on tree-weed interactions and associated establishment and early tree growth were investigated in 1-3 year old hybrid poplar plantations containing Walker poplar (Populus deltoides x (P. laurifolia x P. nigra)) and its progeny Okanese poplar...

Ripari, Valery, Gänzle, Michael G.
Sourdough has traditionally been used as leavening agent in artisanal baking. The production of baked and steamed cereal products increasingly employs sourdough as baking improver to achieve improved bread quality, or to obtain “clean label” products. Sourdoughs are maintained in bakeries by...

Primates play an important role in the maintenance and functioning of tropical ecosystems. However, habitat loss due to land use conversion threatens the persistence of primates worldwide. Colombia has a diverse fauna of primates with 12% of its terrestrial territory protected under the country’s...

Density-Dependent Effects and the Regulation of Crucian Carp Populations in Single-Species Ponds
Download1994
Tonn, W. M., Holopainen, I. J., Paszkowski, C. A.
Crucian carp (Carassius carassius) is often the only fish species present in small ponds of northern Europe. Such populations are typically at high densities and consist primarily of small, relatively slender, and short-lived fish; populations in multispecies assemblages in lakes display opposite...

This two papers thesis explores the economics of hybrid poplar plantations as a potential bioethanol feedstock in Canada. The first paper (Chapter 2) is the stand-level analysis of the financial viability of producing hybrid poplar on private lands for both single-stem and coppice production...

Fall 2018
Red alder (Alnus rubra [Bong.]), is the most common hardwood species along the Pacific Northwest coast and is widely distributed as a component of mixed stands with conifers on highly productive sites. It is also a strong competitor in young conifer stands and rapidly overtops associated juvenile...

Evaluating trembling aspen seedling stock characteristics in response to outplanting and competition
DownloadFall 2017
Trembling aspen is commonly used in the afforestation of boreal forest reclamation sites; however, the presence of vegetation competition can reduce growth and establishment success. This research examines how initial morphological characteristics influence the above and belowground growth of...

Exploring above- and belowground behavioural responses to nutrients and neighbours in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
DownloadSpring 2022
Taking in environmental information and responding in ways that maximize their ability to thrive and reproduce, plants exhibit behaviour through constant changes in biomass development and spatial distribution. Studies aiming to map this behaviour often use model plants like sunflowers and...
