Tamm Review: Individual-based forest management or Seeing the trees for the forest
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-09-15)In the last century, local or individual-based forest management was introduced by various forest scientists including Schädelin, Abetz and Pollanschütz as an alternative to traditional global thinning methods. They suggested ... -
The taxonomic significance of ddRADseq based microsatellite markers in the closely related species of Heracleum (Apiaceae)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-05-07)Many studies on Heracleum have shown poor correspondence between observed molecular clusters and established taxonomic classification amongst closely related species. This might reflect both unresolved taxonomy but perhaps ... -
Technical and Economic Performance of Alternative Feeds in Dairy and Pig Production
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-06-15)A major cost component in livestock production is feed, which suggests improved feed efficiency as a promising strategy to improve both competitiveness and environmental sustainability. This study has investigated the ... -
Techno-environmental assessment of a micro-cogeneration system based on natural gas for residential application
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The study carried out here aims to determine the advantage of using in-situ electricity generation facilities versus conventional generators, being evaluated from the environmental point of view. For this, an environmental ... -
The technological development of drinking water treatment plants in the Czech Republic
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-09-14)Several actors have an impact on the quality of drinking water, but ultimately drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs) play a decisive role in ensuring that water quality complies with public regulations. Several developing ... -
Temperature and light conditions at different latitudes affect sensory quality of broccoli florets (Brassica oleracea L. var. italica)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-08-30)BACKGROUND Broccoli (Brassica oleracea L. var. italica) is a popular vegetable grown at a wide range of latitudes. Plants were grown in 2009–2011 in pots with standardized soil, irrigation and nutrient supply under natural ... -
Temperature control of shoot growth and floral initiation in apple (Malus × domestica Borkh.)
(Journal article, 2020-07-14)Background The environmental control of flowering in apple (Malus × domestica Borkh.) has remained an enigma for generations. Methods We studied growth and flowering effects of temperature under daylight phytotron ... -
Temperature effects on phosphorus requirements for creeping bentgrass establishment and spring growth
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-05-17)Phosphorus is an essential plant nutrient, but primary resources are limited and overfertilization may cause eutrophication of freshwater. Our objectives were to examine temperature effects on (a) optimal P rate for turfgrass ... -
Temperature has a major effect on the cuticular wax composition of bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus L.) fruit
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-09-20)Cuticle is the first layer protecting plants against external biotic and abiotic factors and is responsive to climatic factors as well as determined by genetic adaptations. In this study, the chemical composition of bilberry ... -
Temperature sensitive effects of the neonicotinoid Clothianidin on bumblebee (Bombus terrestris) foraging behaviour
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-07-09)Pollinating insects are an inherent part of most terrestrial ecosystems as they provide a crucial service for most angiosperms, including numerous important crops. A decrease in pollinator populations can therefore have ... -

Temperatures and precipitation affect vegetation dynamics on Scandinavian extensive green roofs
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-12-11)Standard succulent vegetation mixes developed mostly in temperate climates are being increasingly used on green roofs in different climate zones with uncertain outcome regarding vegetation survival and cover. We investigated ... -
Temporal analysis shows relaxed genetic erosion following improved stocking practices in a subarctic transnational brown trout population
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-08-30)Maintaining standing genetic variation is a challenge in human-dominated landscapes. We used genetic (i.e., 16 short tandem repeats) and morphological (i.e., length and weight) measurements of 593 contemporary and historical ... -
Temporal and spatial variation in the direct and indirect effects of climate on reproduction in alpine populations of Ranunculus acris L
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-07-09)Plant reproduction in alpine environments is affected by climate both directly through climate impacts on growth and phenology, and indirectly through impacts on the biotic interactions affecting pollination success. These ... -
TERMINAL FLOWER1 is a breeding target for a noveleverbearing trait and tailored flowering responses incultivated strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.)
(Journal article, 2016)The effects of daylength and temperature on flowering of the cultivated octoploid strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) have been studied extensively at the physiological level, but information on the molecular pathways ... -
The ash dieback invasion of Europe was founded by two genetically divergent individuals
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018-04-23)Accelerating international trade and climate change make pathogen spread an increasing concern. Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, the causal agent of ash dieback, is a fungal pathogen that has been moving across continents and hosts ... -
