Functional distance is driven more strongly by environmental factors than by genetic relatedness in Juniperus thurifera L. expanding forest stands

Key message In our study of colonisation of abandoned farmland by Juniperus thurifera L., environmental and geographic distances were stronger drivers of functional differentiation among trees than genetic distance and tree intrinsic features. However, these effects varied

Radial variation in modulus of elasticity, microfibril angle and wood density of veneer logs from plantation-grown Eucalyptus nitens

Key message Radial variation of wood properties affects product recovery from veneer logs. In Eucalyptus nitens, the radial variation in wood density, microfibril angle and modulus of elasticity was described using non-linear models. The timing of radial
