Nursery seedling production and quality assessmentthrough field performance tests, including both morphological and physiological traits and studying the effects of: a) type of cultivation (container, bare-root); b) types of containers; c) nursery substrates and fertilizations; e) hydric stress; f) field establishment practices. The studied species belongs to the noble hardwoods planted for reforestation, forest restoration and tree-farming for high-quality timber production. Aspects related to the genetic quality of the seedlings, such as seed orchards and provenance comparative trials, were also addressed.
Natural and artificial regeneration under disturbances: a) Nurse-target plant dynamics between natural and artificial regeneration in Mediterranean pine forests under pest attack and a high load of ungulates; b) Effects of soil compaction caused by the use of heavy machinery in forestry operations on natural regeneration.
Chestnut stands both for fruit (orchards) and wood production – a) adaptation of traditional cultivation practices (pruning, grafting) to changing contexts (impact of damage caused by gall wasp, climate change) b) silviculture of chestnut coppices and optimal standards’ density; c) architecture of cultivars selected for high-quality timber production.
Tree-farming - Management and cultural practices aimed to optimize high high-quality of noble hardwood species, particularly the effects of the nitrogen-fixing species in plantations.
