‘Chimes of resilience’: what makes forest trees genetically resilient?
Summary Forest trees are foundation species of many ecosystems and are challenged by global environmental changes. We assemble genetic facts and arguments supporting or undermining resilient responses of forest trees to those changes. Genetic resilience is understood here as the capacity of a species to restore its adaptive potential following ...

Summary Stem CO2 efflux (EA) significantly contributes to autotrophic and ecosystem respiration in tropical forests, but field methodologies often introduce biases and uncertainty. This study evaluates these biases and their impact on scaling EA at the stand‐level.

Summary Photorespiration is a mandatory metabolic repair shunt of carbon fixation by the Calvin–Benson cycle in oxygenic phototrophs. Its extent depends mainly on the CO2 : O2 ratio in chloroplasts, which is regulated via stomatal movements. Despite a comprehensive understanding of the role of photorespiration in mesophyll cells, its role in guard ...

Summary The compact genome and lack of recent whole‐genome multiplication (WGM) events make the boreal pioneer tree silver birch (Betula pendula) a promising model for primary and secondary cell wall (PCW and SCW) regulation in forest trees. Here, we constructed regulatory networks through combined co‐expression and promoter motif analysis and carried ...

A trait spectrum linking nitrogen acquisition and carbon use of ectomycorrhizal fungi
Summary Trait spectra have been used in various branches of ecology to explain and predict patterns of species distributions. Several categorical and continuous traits have been proposed as relevant for ectomycorrhizal fungi, but a spectrum that unifies co‐varying traits remains to be established and tested.

Ring‐specific vulnerability to embolism reveals accumulation of damage in the xylem
Summary Human‐caused climate change is predicted to bring more frequent droughts and higher temperatures in the western United States, which threaten ecologically important trembling aspen forests. We used ring‐specific vulnerability curves of aspen branches along two climate gradients to determine whether damages to pit membranes accumulate as the ...
