Abstract
Microsatellite DNA markers are known to have a high level of genetic diversity and can be used for various purposes. These include population genetic analysis, gene flow assessment, pollen distribution, parent analysis, and accurate distinction between types and varieties. Despite the potential application of microsatellite markers, their development process often requires high costs, energy, and time. To overcome the limitations, several studies have proposed read more

Abstract
Two first-generation progeny trials of Ficus variegata Blume were planted in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, consisting of 17 families from the provenances of West Nusa Tenggara (WNT) and 19 families from the provenances of Cilacap-Pangandaran (C-P), respectively. The trials were evaluated after 10 years for growth characteristics [diameter (D), tree height (H) and stem volume (V)] and wood properties [stress-wave velocity (SWV) and Pilodyn penetration (P)]. Genetic read more

Abstract
Shoot waste refers to the parts of trees that are not yet optimally utilized. In this study, we aimed to utilize shoot waste of fast-growing teak (FGT) extracted from the community forest in Wonosari, Gunungkidul, Yogyakarta Special Region, Indonesia by converting it into charcoal, followed by further conversion into activated carbon. This study was conducted with two treatment factors of the activation process, including thermal treatment (750°C, 850°C, read more

Abstract
Teak tree breeding programs have been conducted over the last several decades in various locations throughout Indonesia. These programs have produced superior teak clones with growth increments > 3 cm diameter at breast height. The wood quality of this clonal teak must be evaluated to determine the final use of these trees and the success rate of the teak breeding programs. In this study we investigated the physical condition (reflected in wood color and read more

Abstract
Gunung Merapi National Park (GMNP) is an inseparable conservation area from the surrounding community, as the buffer village community has used its existing forest resources. Therefore, this research aimed to identify the forest resources used by the buffer village community and assess the economic benefit value generated by GMNP. The economic benefits evaluation adopted the direct use value approach and market prices. The results showed that the community read more

Abstract
Wind damage in Eucalyptus plantations are one of the main factors affecting fibre productivity losses in Sumatra, Indonesia. High levels of damage start between 1.5 and 3.5 years old, with total wind damage of between 7 % and 15 % by area in Eucalyptus plantations. The characteristics of the plantation stands are the most critical factors influencing the level of damage. In this study, the ForestGALES wind damage risk model was parameterised for Eucalyptus read more
