New Phytologist, EarlyView.Climate‐of‐origin of Themeda triandra populations used in this study. Summary Hydraulic, stomatal, and anatomical traits strongly influence plant performance under drought, but the extent to which these trait‐types are coordinated and relate to climate‐of‐origin remains vastly underexplored in herbaceous species relative to woody plants.

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Conceptual synthesis of drought‐induced mortality in European beech. Summary Severe and recurrent droughts have caused widespread canopy decline and mortality in European forests. Drought‐induced mortality occurs when structural damage and physiological dysfunction impair a tree's ability to recover, yet it remains unclear when trees transition from ...

Carbohydrate content governs growth‐storage allocation during recovery from carbon depletion
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Conceptual framework for competing hypotheses of growth‐storage carbon allocation during recovery from carbon limitation. Summary How plants prioritize carbon (C) allocation between growth and storage remains an outstanding question, limiting predictions of forest C cycling and ecosystem resilience following periods of C limitation. To address this gap,

Identification of Cotton Defoliation Sensitive Materials Based on UAV Multispectral Imaging
Agriculture(1) Background: This study aims to analyze the defoliation and boll opening performance of 123 upland cotton germplasm resources after spraying defoliant, using multispectral data to select relevant vegetation indices and identify germplasm resources ...

Recent plant photosynthate as a driver of ecological and evolutionary processes
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Timeline of key eco‐evolutionary outcomes arising from belowground allocation of recent plant photosynthate from shoots. Summary Plants rapidly allocate carbon from photosynthesis belowground via root exudates and root‐associated microorganisms. Here we synthesise recent evidence of our understanding of the consequences of this ‘fast’ pathway of recent

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Stem increment, sap flow and leaf phenology. Summary Savannas are ecosystems with hot and wet summers and warm and dry winters. How and why savanna trees partition their physiological activity through this seasonal cycle is unknown; yet it is important to understand this temporal partitioning in order to anticipate how anthropogenic climatic change ...

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Fall armyworm (FAW) (Spodoptera frugiperda J. E. Smith) has emerged as a serious pest since 2016 in Africa, affecting the food security and livelihoods of millions of smallholder farmers, especially those growing maize. Native genetic resistance to FAW is essential for reducing yield loss.

Regrowth dynamics and morpho-physiological characteristics of Plantago lanceolata under different defoliation frequencies and intensities [PDF]
Traditional pastures in temperate regions face limitations such as reduced growth and nutritional quality during the summer season. Plantain (P. lanceolata L.) offers advantages like increased yield and decreased nitrogen losses from grazing ruminants ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Agricultural weeds typically combine high reproductive output with fast vegetative growth. Here we analyzed the processes that overcome a potential trade‐off between vegetative growth and reproduction in the weed Avena fatua. We determined photosynthetic function of inflorescences and analyzed the transcriptomes of individual inflorescence ...
