Research and Applications of Chemical Sciences in Forestry. Proceedings of theSouthern Station Chemical Sciences Meeting (4th). Held in Starkville, Mississippi on February 1-2, 1994

摘要

This proceedings is the result of 65 scientists representing 34 facilitiesreported in 28 presentations. The contributors represent academic, basic, and applied researchers from universities and U.S. Department of Agriculture. Their presence and experience represent a significant showing toward recognizing the importance of forestry research. The featured speaker presented a deliberate, indepth discussion of magnetic resonance imaging in plant sciences. A second invited speaker addressed user responsibilities while applying chemical sciences in our environment. The presentations include: Magnetic Resonance Imaging, a Technology for Noninvasive Plant Analysis; Use of Magnetic Resonance Imaging for Nondestructive Assessment of Knots and Rots in Roots; Magnetic Resonance Microscopy of Water Movement Through Fusiform Rust Galls of Pine; Magnetic Resonance Microscopy (MRM) of Water Transport and Binding in Fusiform Rust Galls; Structures and Transformations of Douglas-fir Bark Polyphenols; Conformational Analysis of Polyphenols; In vitro Response of Heterobasidium annosum to Manganese; Distribution of Manganese (II) in White-rot Decayed Aspen: a New Transmission Electron Microscopy Technique; Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship Studies of Stilbenols Against Wood-inhabiting Fungi; Identification of a Host Compound and Its Practical Applications: 4-allylanisole as a Bark Beetle Repellent.
