    The olive tree-ring problematic dating

    Get PDF
    We are glad to see that our paper has stimulated a lively debate, and we acknowledge the appreciation of our work by Bietak, Kuniholm and MacGillivray as well as that of those who oppose our hypothesis (Bruins & van der Plicht, Friedrich et al., all above). The enigma of the dating of the Santorini eruption is a long-lasting one, and because of its bearing on the dating of several eastern Mediterranean civilisations, has attracted significant attention. The potentially great importance of the Santorini olive branch used by Friedrich et al. (2006) was that it came from the site itself, and possibly belonged to the destruction layer. As such, the sincere and serious attempt to date it made by Friedrich et al. (2006) should be appreciated. Unfortunately, large olive branches may exist as dead limbs for a very long time and thus represent earlier period

    Patterns of Dilatation Growth in Ficus Pumila and Ficus Sycomorus

    Get PDF
    Dilatation growth occurs in the secondary phloem rays, in the axial secondary phloem parenchyma, and in the parenchyma of the cortex of Ficus pumila (a Iiana) and Ficus sycomorus (a tree). Dilatation growth in Ficus pumila is mostly the result of meristematic activity, but in Ficus sycomorus it is the result of both meristematic activity and increase in cell size. Dilatation meristem is formed in the rays in various patterns: in the center of the ray, at one or two of the ray\u27s margins, in horizontal or diagonal strips (relative to the axis) in the ray, or in more than one pattern in a single ray

    Aggregated Cones in Pinus Halepensis

    Aggregated female cones were found in 192 Pinus halepensis trees growing in 54 populations in Israel, in habitats of vastly differing ecological conditions. All of these trees also carried normal (1-5 in a whorl) female cones. The number of aggregates per tree varied from one to several dozen. Some of the trees formed aggregates every year, after the first year of aggregate formation, while others formed aggregates only once, or at long intervals. Not all cones in the aggregates reached maturity. The number of cones in an aggregate ranged from six to 62, and they were usually smaller than normal. Many of the trees with aggregates showed other abnormalities, e.g., individual female cone scales, proliferated dwarf shoots, three-needled dwarf shoots, shorter cone stalks, needles on cone stalks, larger terminal cones on the main axis in cones formed during the current year, proliferated female cones, and degradation of the main axis above the aggregate. The clusters probably result from replacement of dwarf shoots by ovulate cones
