However, yet its plantation productivity frequently declines under successive rotations, threatening long-term sustainability. While belowground processes are suspected drivers, the mechanisms—particularly plant–soil–microbe interactions—remain poorly resolved. To address this, we examined a chronosequence of C. lanceolata plantations (5, 15, 20, and 30 years) in Jingdezhen, Jiangxi Province, integrating soil physicochemical assays, high-throughput sequencing, and extracellular enzyme activity profiling. We found that near-mature stands (20 years) exhibited a 60.7% decline in mean annual volume increment relative to mid-aged stands (15 years), despite continued increases in individual tree volume—suggesting a strategic shift from resource-acquisitive to nutrient-conservative growth. Peak values of soil organic carbon (32.87 g·kg−1), total nitrogen (2.51 g·kg−1), microbial biomass carbon (487.33 mg·kg−1), and phosphorus (25.65 mg·kg−1) coincided with this stage, reflecting accelerated nutrient turnover and intensified plant–microbe competition. Microbial communities shifted markedly over time: Basidiomycota and Acidobacteria became dominant in mature stands, replacing earlier Ascomycota and Proteobacteria. Random Forest and Partial Least Squares Path Modeling (PLS-SEM) identified total nitrogen, ammonium nitrogen, and total phosphorus as key predictors of productivity. PLS-SEM further revealed that stand age directly enhanced productivity (β = 0.869) via improved soil properties, but also indirectly suppressed it by stimulating microbial biomass (β = 0.845)—a “dual-effect” that intensified nutrient competition. Fungal and bacterial functional profiles were complementary: under phosphorus limitation, fungi upregulated acid phosphatase to enhance P acquisition, while bacteria predominately mediated nitrogen mineralization. Our results demonstrate a coordinated “soil–microbe–enzyme” feedback mechanism regulating productivity dynamics in C. lanceolata plantations. These insights advance a mechanistic understanding of rotation-associated decline and underscore the potential for targeted nutrient and microbial management to sustain long-term plantation yields.","PeriodicalId":12339,"journal":{"name":"Forests","volume":"16 12","pages":"1854-1854"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.mdpi.com/1999-4907/16/12/1854/pdf?version=1765618029","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147333861","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address this, we established a dynamic reaction system based on the catalytic oxidation of α-pinene: ① background control (no catalyst, no heating), ② thermal oxidation system (no catalyst, 40 °C), and ③ catalytic oxidation system (with a titanium–copper modified chabazite-type zeolite catalyst, 40 °C). Behavioral screening using a Y-tube olfactometer revealed a clear gradient in attraction effectiveness among the three systems: catalytic oxidation > thermal oxidation > background control. The products from the catalytic oxidation system at 2 h of reaction showed the highest efficacy, achieving an attraction rate of 61%, which was significantly superior to the α-pinene control. These results indicate that generating dynamically proportioned volatile mixtures through catalytic oxidation can significantly enhance the attraction of T. yunnanensis Further analysis by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) demonstrated that the catalyst efficiently promoted the directional conversion of α-pinene into key bioactive compounds such as verbenol, myrtenal, and myrtenone, thereby substantially improving behavioral activity.

In this study, triethylene glycol (TEG), nylon 66 (PA66), and 3-glycidyl-oxypropyl-trimethoxy-silane (KH560) were incorporated into pine wood liquefaction resin to successfully prepare three novel modified carbon foams (MCFs), and their characteristics were investigated. The results indicate that the compressive strength and specific surface area of the three MCFs were significantly enhanced. Specifically, the compressive strength increased by 37%, 46%, and 89% following modification with TEG, PA66, and KH560, respectively, while the specific surface areas ranged from 383.4 to 499.3 m2/g. Additionally, the cell structures of the three MCFs exhibited greater uniformity, with larger average pore sizes, thinner ligament thicknesses, and increased opening porosities. Notably, the opening porosity of KH560-modified carbon foam (KH560-PLP-PF-CF) reached its maximum value at 87.95%. XPS analysis confirmed the successful introduction of Si-containing molecular bonds, including Si-OH-Si, Si-OH, and Si-CH, into KH560-PLP-PF-CF. Furthermore, FT-IR analysis revealed characteristic Si-O vibration peaks, PA66 amide peaks, and TEG ether bond absorption peaks in the three MCFs. The incorporation of flexible functional groups effectively enhanced their compressive properties. The findings of this study expand the potential for utilizing biomass waste to partially replace phenol in the development of novel carbon foams.","PeriodicalId":12339,"journal":{"name":"Forests","volume":"16 2","pages":"311-311"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.mdpi.com/1999-4907/16/2/311/pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147332737","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Over a one-year incubation, we observed a significant reduction in mass loss in colonized litter (46%) compared to non-colonized litter (80%), indicating an inhibitory effect of endophytes on decomposition. Structural equation modeling revealed a bimodal impact of endophytic microbes, with an initial enhancement followed by a pronounced inhibition as decomposition progressed. Extracellular enzyme stoichiometry showed phosphorus limitation became significant, particularly with endophytic colonization, contributing to reduced decomposition rates. Microbial diversity analyses exposed the variable impacts of endophytic colonization on fungal and bacterial communities, with taxa such as Helotiales (order) and Burkholderia–Caballeronia–Paraburkholderia (genus) significantly affected. The identification of 16 keystone species, mostly endophytic bacteria, underscored their pivotal influence on decomposition processes. Despite initial endophytic impacts, abundant carbon resources promoted stochastic colonization, potentially surpassing the effects of early endophytic establishment. This study provides insights into the priority effects of endophytic colonization and niche differentiation, offering a foundation for further research into the mechanisms underlying these processes and their ecological consequences in various ecosystems.","PeriodicalId":12339,"journal":{"name":"Forests","volume":"16 2","pages":"249-249"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147334107","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lignified twigs (LT), typically unsuitable as timber due to their small diameter, are rich in lignin, which degrades during thermal induction to produce antifungal organic compounds. In this context, the objective of this study was to develop a lignified twig preservative (LTP) by thermal induction from the LT of Actinidia chinensis var. Jinyang. The antifungal activity of LTP under varying thermal conditions was analyzed, along with its chemical composition. Enzyme activity, cell membrane integrity, and respiratory metabolism in fungi treated with LTP were examined to elucidate antifungal mechanisms. Additionally, the decay resistance of LTP-treated wood was evaluated. Results revealed that LTP produced under N2 at 220 °C exhibited robust antifungal activity against Trametes versicolor and Gloeophyllum trabeum, attributed to phenolic compounds such as syringaldehyde, syringone, vanillin, and vanillone. LTP inhibited fungal cellulases, hemicellulases, and ligninases by 30%–60%, disrupted cell membrane functionality, and suppressed respiratory metabolism. Poplar wood treated with LTP demonstrated significantly enhanced decay resistance (mass loss < 10%). This thermal-induced feedback pattern shows great potential for LT in wood preservation.","PeriodicalId":12339,"journal":{"name":"Forests","volume":"16 1","pages":"119-119"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.mdpi.com/1999-4907/16/1/119/pdf?version=1736514580","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147330333","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is important to quantify seasonal patterns in Fs through long-term datasets because individual years may show patterns that are not reflective of long-term averages. Additionally, determining predictability of net patterns in soil carbon flux based on environmental factors, such as moisture and temperature, is critical for appropriately modeling forest carbon flux. Ecosystems in moderate climates may have strong CO2 efflux even during winter, and so continuous quantification of annual variability is especially important. Here, we used a 2008–2023 dataset in a lowland temperate forest ecosystem to address two main questions: (1) What are the seasonal patterns in Fs in a highly productive temperate rainforest? (2) How is average Fs across our study area predicted by average coincident temperature, soil moisture and precipitation totals? Data showed clear seasonality where Fs values are higher in summer. We also find Fs across our measurement network was predicted by variation in abiotic factors, but the interaction between precipitation/moisture and temperature resulted in greater complexity. Specifically, in spring a relatively strong relationship between air temperature and Fs was present, while in summer the relationship between temperature and Fs was flat. Winter and autumn seasons showed weak positive relationships. Meanwhile, a negative relationship between precipitation and Fs was present in only some seasons because most precipitation falls outside the normal growing season in our study system. Our data help constrain estimates of soil CO2 fluxes in a temperate rainforest ecosystem at ~14–20 kg C ha−1 day−1 in summer and autumn, and 6.5–10.5 kg C ha−1 day−1 in winter and spring seasons. Together, estimates suggest this highly productive temperate rainforest has annual soil-to-atmosphere fluxes of CO2 that amount to greater than 4.5 Mg C ha−1 year−1. Sensitivity of such fluxes to regional climate change will depend on the balance of Fs determined by autotrophic phenological responses versus heterotrophic temperature and moisture sensitivity. Relatively strong seasonal variation coupled with comparatively weak responses to abiotic variables suggest Fs may be driven largely by seasonal trends in autotrophic respiration. Accordingly, plant and tree responses to climate may have a stronger effect on Fs in the context of climate change than temperature or moisture changes alone.","PeriodicalId":12339,"journal":{"name":"Forests","volume":"10 44","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-01-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139437932","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

High salinity induces a series of structural and functional changes in the morphological and anatomical features.

Based on this, this study compared and analyzed the differences in the physiological and biochemical indicators between the leaf and root tissues in high-salt and low-salt habitats, selecting K. foliatum as the research object. The results showed that the chlorophyll contents in the leaves of K. foliatum decreased in the high-salt habitat, while the thicknesses of the upper and lower epidermises, as well as the thicknesses of the palisade tissue, significantly increased. The high-salt environment led to decreases in the N and P contents in the leaves and root tissues of K. foliatum, resulting in changes in the stoichiometric ratio of elements. The concentrations of C, N, and P in the roots of K. foliatum were lower than those in the leaves. The accumulation of Na+ in the K. foliatum roots was greater than that in the leaves, and the roots could promote the transport of sodium ions to the leaves. The contents of starch and soluble sugar in the leaves showed higher proportions in the high-salt habitat than in the low-salt habitat, while the changes in the roots and leaves were the opposite. As the salt content increased, the proline contents in the leaves and roots of K. foliatum significantly increased, and the proline contents in the roots of K. foliatum were lower than those in the leaves. The leaves and roots exhibited higher levels of peroxidase and superoxide enzymes in the high-salinity habitat than in the low-salinity habitat. The superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity of the K. foliatum leaves and catalase (CAT) activity of the roots were the “central traits” in the high-salt habitat. In the low-salt habitat, the leaf malondialdehyde (MDA) and root C/N were the central traits of the leaves and roots, indicating that K. foliatum adapts to changes in salt environments in different ways.","PeriodicalId":12339,"journal":{"name":"Forests","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139438823","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To estimate the dynamic flexural modulus of elasticity (MOED), a non-destructive test (NDT) method—the frequency resonance technique (FRT)—was used.

This article presents the results of a study comparing the correlations between the dynamic and static bending parameters of beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) and oak (Quercus robur L.) wood, which was further divided into heartwood and sapwood. These species were chosen as the most widespread representatives of diffuse-porous and ring-porous hardwoods. This study found statistically significant differences in most mechanical parameters between the two species, except for MOR. Among the investigated parameters, beech had higher values than oak (by 22.1% for MOED, 9.5% for MOE, and 12.1% for Aw). Furthermore, relevant correlations (R > |0.7|) were established between MOED and between some of the static flexural parameters. These correlations were stronger for beech, which due to its more homogeneous structure showed less data variability than the ring-porous oak.","PeriodicalId":12339,"journal":{"name":"Forests","volume":"6 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139438443","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
