QUANTITATIVE WOOD ANATOMY USING ROXAS
From Samples to Data
25th June - 1st July
2023
Anybody interested in quantitative wood anatomy is invited,
including researchers, students and technicians of all levels of
experience. Participation will be limited to a maximum of 20 people
(first come first served).
We will provide the participants with the necessary skills to
produce high-quality anatomical data from wood samples. The program
will include ample time for supervised training. The following
topics will be covered:
The focus will be on anatomical measurements related to conduits (size, cell wall thickness, vessel topology), since they are most commonly used in research. But, we will also consider covering the quantification of other anatomical traits like cells in the phloem, ray parenchyma or resin ducts if there is interest.
