Tree growth response and adaptation to climate change and climate extremes: From canopy to stem

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes the responses and adaptations of tree growth, including canopy phenology, intra‐annual wood formation dynamics, and annual stem growth, to climate change and climate extremes. It highlights key knowledge gaps for future research to support sustainable forest management and enhance forest carbon storage under ongoing climate ...

Shaping future forests: how can ecophysiology support climate‐smart forest management?

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Climate change, particularly the associated increase in extreme events and disturbances, threatens the numerous environmental, social, and economic benefits that forests provide, both locally and globally. Heat and drought pose significant risks to forest ecosystems; the anticipated future climate is expected to exacerbate this trend ...

Alleles From Crop Wild Relatives Accumulated by Long‐Term Adaptation to Low‐Input Environments Contribute to Yield Advantages in Wheat (Triticum aestivum)

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Increasingly variable climate conditions are affecting crop production, leading to greater yield fluctuations, which in turn are impacting global food security. Introducing alleles from regions where the expected stress conditions occur, so‐called exotic alleles, could serve as a means to mitigate these effects. We examined the value of exotic

Turgor loss point explains climate‐driven growth reductions in trees in Central Europe

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Leaf turgor loss point of native tree species shows a high predictive power over the observed growth anomalies in Central Europe during the extensive drought period between 2018 and 2020. Abstract As climate change thrives, and the frequency of intense droughts is affecting many forested regions, a mechanistic understanding of the factors conferring ...

Functional traits explain growth response to successive hotter droughts across a wide set of common and future tree species in Europe

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Functional traits can explain significant tree growth reductions in response to the 2018–2020 drought for a wide set of 71 species including angiosperms and gymnosperms. Moreover, four distinct response types emerged: ‘Sufferer’, ‘Late sufferer’, ‘Recoverer’ and ‘Resister’, with gymnosperms predominately appearing as ‘Sufferer’ and ‘Late sufferer ...
