Identification of Alnus incana (L.) Moenx. x Alnus glutinosa (L.) Gaertn. Hybrids Using Metabolic Compounds as Chemotaxonomic Markers

Girmante Jurksiene et al.

Summary: By studying the bioactive compounds in the wood of two alder species and their hybrids, it was found that the content of total phenolics and flavonoid compounds could be used for identifying alder hybrids. The results also showed that the total flavonoid content was higher in mature trees and at coastal sites, while the total phenolic content was higher at inland sites. This study expanded the knowledge of alder physiology and contributed to the identification of alder hybrids.

Genetic Monitoring of Alnus glutinosa Natural Populations Using Two Generation Cohorts

Rita Verbylaite et al.

Summary: The aim of this study was to assess the genetic diversity of protected black alder populations, compare the genetic diversity between maternal and progeny generations, and determine the impact of forest management practices on genetic diversity. The results revealed high genetic diversity in Lithuanian black alder populations, with no significant genetic differences between different generations.

Topographic indices predict the diversity of Red List and non-native plant species in human-altered riparian ecosystems

Michal Slezak et al.

Summary: This study investigates the relationships between disturbance regime, site productivity, and plant species richness in temperate floodplain forests. The results show that flooding-induced disturbance and site productivity are complementary predictors for explaining the diversity patterns of different plant guilds. Higher disturbance levels increase species richness, while less disturbed sites with higher productivity lead to higher rates of interspecific competitive exclusions. However, frequent flooding may reduce species richness for certain groups. The richness of Red List species peaks at intermediate disturbance and productivity levels.

Identification of Alnus glutinosa L. and A. incana (L.) Moench. Hybrids in Natural Forests Using Nuclear DNA Microsatellite and Morphometric Markers

Girmante Jurksiene et al.

Summary: This study aimed to estimate the likelihood of spontaneous hybridizations between native alders in Lithuania based on leaf morphology and nuclear microsatellite markers. The results identified pure species and hybrids, showing two genetic group structures with clear genetic differentiation between A. glutinosa and A. incana, and variable likelihood values in the putative hybrid group. This has important implications for genetic conservation and management of Alnus spp.
