Abstract:
Identifying wood species from archaeological artifacts provides crucial information for understanding ancient technological capabilities, resource utilization patterns, paleovegetation, environmental changes, and societal interactions. While traditional microscopical anatomy analysis and common genetic markers (<i>rbcL, rpoB, matK, atp, and 18S</i>) for general plants exhibit limitations in archaeological samples due to DNA degradation and contamination, this study employed the chloroplast <i>trnL</i> gene with shorter sequences for wood identification.

Abstract:
In densely populated European countries like the Netherlands, old landscape elements such as ancient woodlands and ancient hedges are today rare. Owing to the introduction of exotic species and indigenous trees and shrubs imported from other climate zones, recognition of truly wild, i.e. autochthonous, individuals and populations is now problematical, posing challenges for forest management agencies, particularly at Natura 2000 sites. The author has developed a method for recognising genetically pure wild woody species, based on characteristics of the plant itself and those of the growing site

Since ancient times, peasants have relied on the presence of some plants or animals to assess soi’s fertility. This study carried out in Dogo site in Niger and that aim is ti determine the main farmer indicators of soil fertility assessment. For this, an individual semi-structured questionnaire was administered to the farmers. Results showed that several types of biological indicators are used by farmers to assess soil’s fertility through the presence or absence of some plants and/or animals. Thus, Cenchrus biflorus, Cyperus alopeuroides, Alysicarpus ovalifolius, Brachiaria spp have been cited

Agroforestry is a common practice in the tropics that is characterized by various activities such as parkland on cultivated lands or home garden agroforestry around homesteads. In Ethiopia, agroforestry is an ancient land use type that is practiced by smallholder farmers. Scattered trees in cropland or parkland trees and home garden trees are old agroforestry practices, and the most dominant practices exist in different parts of Ethiopia. They cover large areas of highland, midland, and lowland agroecologies of Liban Jawi District in West Showa of Oromia National Regional State, Central Ethiop

Abstract:
Bamboos, ancient plants that have thrived sustainably for centuries, contribute significantly to the regions where they naturally grow, particularly in countries across the eastern hemisphere. Their presence worldwide is primarily associated with natural forests, where they have been utilized in various economic activities without significant environmental controversies. These forests have evolved naturally in an endemic or native manner. However, the recent surge in commercial bamboo farms has posed a dilemma for government entities responsible for approving or disapproving their establishmen

Natural succession of vegetation on abandoned farmland provides opportunities for passive rewilding to re-establish native woodlands, but in Western Europe the patterns and outcomes of vegetation colonisation are poorly known. We combine time series of field surveys and remote sensing (lidar and photogrammetry) to study woodland development on two farmland fields in England over 24 and 59 years respectively: the New Wilderness (2.1 ha) abandoned in 1996, and the Old Wilderness (3.9 ha) abandoned in 1961, both adjacent to ancient woodland.

Analysis of 2277 charcoals showed the presence of 13 taxa of woody species; Pinus and Picea charcoals dominated. Charcoals older than 300 BC were found only in sediment and in several pits formed after treefalls with uprooting. The greatest diversity of woody

Abstract:
As trees age, they become ecologically richer and more full of life. The process of a tree, wood or forest becoming ‘ancient’, however defined, involves a vast and subtle web of relations – among the trees themselves, with other organisms, with the wider landscape and with human beings. A single tree can provide a vast array of habitats which are an integral part of the complex co-evolutionary relationships evolved over its lifetime and later during its sometimes long afterlife. From ancient times until today, trees and woods have inspired artists, writers and scientists; they have shaped cult
