Reduced snow cover at the alpine treeline: resistance and recovery of saplings
Summary At high elevations, tree saplings and shrubs are usually protected by mid‐winter snow cover, although climate change is expected to extend the snow‐free (SF) period. Exposure to winter drought, freeze–thaw events and freezing temperatures will therefore increase, inducing damages to the hydraulic system and to living cells, resulting in reduced

The legacy of past droughts induces water‐sparingly behaviour in Grüner Veltliner grapevines
Grapevines with a drought history showed increased water use efficiency in a non‐water‐limited season, in coordination with morpho‐anatomical modifications of leaf, xylem anatomy and stomata, suggesting significant drought legacies. Abstract Drought is becoming more frequent and severe in numerous wine‐growing regions.

Performance of ‘Fuji Suprema’ apple trees treated with budbreak promoters, in São Joaquim-SC
The application of rest breaking agents to overcome the lack of chilling is a common practice in apple orchards in southern Brazil. However, its necessity in areas of greater chilling accumulation, like in the city São Joaquim, Santa Catarina State (SC),

Changes in the distribution of annual rainfall totals, together with the increase in temperature over the last 40 years, are causing more frequent periods of drought, and plants are more often exposed to water stress. The aim of this study was to monitor

Biological methods for assessment of budbreak in apple trees for modeling dormancy
A biological method was developed to evaluate the dormancy state of apple buds under controlled conditions. Cuttings (20-25 cm long) of ‘Castel Gala’ and ‘Royal Gala’ were sampled during the winter period, evaluating different cold and heat regimes to ...

Abstract The native, perennial shrub American hazelnut (Corylus americana) is cultivated in the US Midwest for its significant ecological benefits, as well as its high‐value nut crop. Genetic improvement of perennial crops involves long‐term breeding efforts, and benefits from the use of genetic data in selection to reduce breeding cycle time.
