Thirty-one (31)Moroccan tree and shrub species were tested within a wide range of fuel moisture contents. Six species flammability classes were identified. An ANOVA of the FI-values was performed and analyzed using four different sample sizes of 12, 24, 36, and 50 flammability tests. Fuel humidity content is inversely correlated to the FI-value, and the linear model appears to be the most adequate equation that may predict the hypothetical threshold-point of humidity of extinction. Most of the Moroccan forest fuels studied are classified as moderately flammable to flammable species based on their average humidity content, calculated for the summer period from July to September.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Table 1</style></issue></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Blasco, Begona</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rubio-Wilhelmi, Maria M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sanchez-Rodriguez, Eva</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chirosa, Manuel</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ruiz, Juan M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rosua, Jose L.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Romero, Luis</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Serrano, Francisco</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ruiz, Juan M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rosua, Jose L.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Romero, Luis</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nutritional analysis of six forest species grown in two different edaphological conditions in a Mediterranean environment: II.

gnidium, which were grown in two different soils that differed in pH 6.0
(Llano de la Perdiz) and 8.0 (Sierra Elvira), both zones in Granada
(Spain) and under analogous environmental conditions (1). The
chlorophyll content in its different forms showed that in the Llano de
la Perdiz C. albidus presented a greater content than did Q.
rotundifolia. Comparable behaviour was found in the area of Sierra
Elvira. In the case of the carotenoids, Q. rotundifolia presented the
lowest values in both zones. For lycopene, great differences were found
between species but not between zones. The lowest content was found in
J. oxycedrus and Q. rotundifolia, and the highest one was registered by
C. albidus and R. sphaerocarpa, with a content of 40% more than the
others. In the case of anthocyanins, Q. rotundifolia and R lychnitis
were notable for their low content in Llano de la Perdiz. This same
phenomenon was repeated in Sierra Elvira. This clearly indicates a
direct relationship between the chlorophyll level and the nutrient
content, as well as the relationship of the environmental conditions
with respect to the content of non-photosynthetic pigments. The high
content of pigments, photosynthetic or not, in these plants makes them
capable of resisting such extreme environmental conditions in which they
grow.

Two European and two USA isolates were used. Wounded and unwounded leaves were dipped in zoospore suspensions during summer; conifers were also tested in winter. Successful infection of tissue and amount of necrosis were assessed. Highly susceptible broad-leaved hosts included Aesculus hippocastanum, Fraxinus excelsior, Quercus ilex, Ulmus procera and, to a lesser extent, Castanea sativa, Q. cerris and Q. petraea, together with Umbellularia californica and rhododendrons. Acer pseudoplatanus, Alnus glutinosa, Carpinus betulus, Corylus avellana, Fagus sylvatica, Prunus avium, Q. robur, Q. rubra and Q. suber showed consistently low susceptibility. Conifer species including Abies procera, Picea abies, P. sitchensis, Pseudotsuga menziesii, Sequoia sempervirens and Tsuga heterophylla were also susceptible. Pseudotsuga menziesii and A. procera were severely affected. Pinus contorta, P. nigra var. maritima and P. sylvestris were virtually resistant, while Taxus baccata was only slightly affected. Increased necrosis was apparent on leaves that were wounded prior to inoculation. These results extend the known range of trees that P. ramorum is able to attack and confirm its relative host-nonspecificity.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;pub-location: COMMERCE PLACE, 350 MAIN ST, MALDEN 02148, MA USA&lt;br/&gt;publisher: WILEY-BLACKWELL</style></notes></record></records></xml>
