Book Description
Papers presented at an international workshop in China, April 2003 examine the role of eucalypt species in Asia. The proceedings cover socioeconomic, genetics, nutrition, pests and diseases, environmental impacts and utilisation issues. The conference, conceived by the China Eucalypt Research Centre, was the first to consider such a wide range of issues about eucalypts in the Asian region. It is a valuable contribution to our knowledge and ability to manage these species for maxium benefit and sustainability.

Genetics, Genomics and Breeding of Eucalypts
Author: Robert J. Henry
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1482254123
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
Eucalypts are used for the production of paper products, firewood, charcoal, potential feedstocks for bioenergy and biomaterials, as ornamentals and landscape trees, and in land rehabilitation. Eucalypt breeding is at an early stage with many plantings being only at the first stages of domestication. The relatively small genomes of these species make the application of molecular genetics approaches attractive. The application of modern genomics will accelerate the development of improved eucalypts for a wide range of uses. This book brings together diverse information on the genetics, genomics, and breeding of these important forest species.

The Eucalyptus
Author: Robin Whitaker Doughty
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780756771645
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 237
Book Description
Tells the how the eucalyptus -- or "gum tree" -- spread from its native Australia to habitats around the world. First regarded as an exotic novelty and a popular ornamental in European gardens, the eucalyptus became the favored tree of the global pulpwood ind'y. Discusses reasons for the tree's popularity throughout history, ranging from the aesthetic, to its purported malaria-countering character in swamps, to its ability to adapt and mature quickly as a source of timber and firewood. Raises important issues surrounding the eucalyptus today, such as the accelerated establishment of eucalyptus plantations in Latin America and Asia, their impact upon the environment and the social consequences of encouraging expansion on both private and community lands. B&W photos.

Eucalypts
Author: John W. Wrigley
Publisher: Allen & Unwin
ISBN: 1741759242
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 25
Book Description
Eucalypts are a familiar part of the Australian landscape and an integral part of their identity. They have farmed them and used them to build houses, furniture, roads, and bridges since the beginning of white settlement. They have been inspired by them, painted them, made films about them, written books about them, and of course Aboriginal Australians have long made musical instruments from them. Though a small number are found as native plants in several other countries, Eucalypts are a very Australian tree. This book celebrates their diversity, their beauty, and the role they play in the history, culture, and economy of Australia. It looks at their evolution, biology, horticulture, and ecology, together with their classification and the botanists involved. Through historic and contemporary images, it examines the many ways in which they have served Aboriginal, colonial, and contemporary Australians in both practical and aesthetic ways. Eucalypts have quite literally been the building blocks of that nation and this beautiful book tells their complete story for the first time.

Book Description
The book contains papers presented at a meeting by eucalyptus experts, scholars, consultants and company managers from different countries and regions. The authors report: (1) the most recent advances in eucalyptus research from different perspectives OCo genetics, breeding, cultivation techniques, soil nutrition, plantation management, wood utilization, etc.; (2) the world-wide extension and development of the cultivated eucalyptus as a strategic forest tree with great economic, environmental and social significance; (3) plantation management merging ecological, environmental and legal concerns in operations practised by the private sector; (4) new approaches to utilization of eucalyptus woods. This book also represents a successful combination of academic research and practical operation in managing commercial eucalyptus plantations."

Diseases and Pathogens of Eucalypts
Author: PJ Keane
Publisher: CSIRO PUBLISHING
ISBN: 0643098844
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 576
Book Description
Over the last fifty years, there has been an increasing recognition that eucalypts are vulnerable to a wide range of diseases. They have suffered destructive epidemics, particularly of dieback caused by the cinnamon fungus in native forests, of foliar diseases and cankers in plantations, and of dieback of remnant trees on agricultural and grazing land. This has stimulated intensive research into the causes and management of diseases of the eucalypts. This work represents a comprehensive review of our current knowledge of the health and diseases of eucalypts.
