Apoplastic barriers of Populus × canescens roots in reaction to different cultivation conditions and abiotic stress treatments

Stress Biology, 2023
Populus is an important tree genus frequently cultivated for economical purposes. However, the high sensitivity of poplars towards water deficit, drought, and salt accumulation significantly affects plant productivity and limits biomass yield.

Shaping future forests: how can ecophysiology support climate-smart forest management? [PDF]

New Phytol
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 ...

Understanding marine biodiversity patterns and drivers: The fall of Icarus

Marine Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity patterns are fundamental in our understanding of the distribution of life, ecosystem function, and conservation. In this concept analysis, A survey of the existing knowledge on marine biodiversity patterns and drivers across latitudes, longitudes, and depths indicates that none of the postulated patterns represent a rule.

Microbial modulation of plant ethylene signaling: ecological and evolutionary consequences

, 2018
The plant hormone ethylene is one of the central regulators of plant development and stress resistance. Optimal ethylene signaling is essential for plant fitness and is under strong selection pressure. Plants upregulate ethylene production in response to

Molecular profiles of contrasting shade response strategies in wild plants: Differential control of immunity and shoot elongation [PDF]

, 2017
Plants growing at high densities elongate their shoots to reach for light, a response known as the shade avoidance syndrome (SAS). Phytochrome-mediated detection of far-red light reflection from neighboring plants activates growth-promoting molecular ...

Evidence for regulation of transpiration in nonstomatal plants: insights from bryophyte gametophytes

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Kinetics of cell wall water vapor potential (Ψcw) and resistance of cell wall and plasmatic membrane to water flux in response to cytoplasmic water potential (Ψcyt) during dehydration. Ψcyt was calculated from the WC at any moment of the dehydration curve by using the relationship between −1/Ψw and WC of pressure volume curves and assuming Ψw = Ψcyt ...

Photoreceptor crosstalk in shade avoidance [PDF]

, 2016
Plants integrate a variety of environmental signals to determine the threat of competitor shading and use this information to initiate escape responses, termed shade avoidance. Photoreceptor-mediated light signals are central to this process. Encroaching

Effect of Temperature and Light on Ex Situ Germination of Flemingia faginea (Guill. & Perr.) Baker Seeds in Burkina Faso

International Journal of Forestry Research
Flemingia faginea is a woody species whose various parts are widely used in traditional medicine. However, this species, which typically grows along waterways, is becoming increasingly rare due to poor seed germination in the wild, possibly resulting ...

Harnessing Microbial Agents to Improve Soil Health and Rice Yield Under Straw Return in Rice–Wheat Agroecosystems

Agriculture
We clarified the effect of wheat straw return combined with microbial agents on rice yield and soil properties. A field experiment was conducted using hybrid indica rice ‘Chuankangyou 2115’ and five treatments: no wheat straw return (T1), wheat straw ...

Rapid dehydration drives a nondiffusional drop in C3 photosynthesis that aligns with phosphate limitation

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the causal sequence through which rapid water loss imposes diffusive and nondiffusive restrictions on carbon assimilation. Summary Drought is an abnormally prolonged water deficit posing major challenges to plants. Stomatal closure has long been considered the primary factor limiting photosynthesis during the early stages of
