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

The promise of digital herbarium specimens in large‐scale phenology research
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary The online mobilization of herbaria has made tens of millions of specimens digitally available, revolutionizing investigations of phenology and plant responses to climate change. We identify two main themes associated with this growing body of research and highlight a selection of recent publications exemplifying: investigating phenology at ...

Understanding evolutionary processes during past Quaternary climatic cycles: Can it be applied to the future? [PDF]
, 2010 Climate change affected ecological community make-up during the Quaternary which was probably both the cause of, and was caused by, evolutionary processes such as species evolution, adaptation and extinction of species and ...

Reduced snow cover at the alpine treeline: resistance and recovery of saplings
New Phytologist, EarlyView.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

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

Cold hardening and dehardening in Salix [PDF]
, 2003 The variation in cold hardiness in Salix in the autumn was investigated using clones of different geographic origins. In late growing season, the variation was small and inversely related to a phenotypic variation in potential growth rate.

Cold hardiness dynamics predict budbreak and associated low‐temperature threats in grapevine
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Dormant buds of temperate woody perennial plants must attain cold hardiness to survive winters and timely lose it in spring to break bud while avoiding damage from low temperatures and late frosts. Therefore, we asked: Can a cold hardiness model be used to predict budbreak?

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Oil sorghum (OS) has been developed by engineering grain (TX430) and sweet (Ramada) genetic backgrounds to accumulate triacylglycerols (TAG) in vegetative tissues as an energy‐dense feedstock for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and other biofuels. This study evaluated two TX430 OS lines (TxHO‐2, TxHO‐3) and two Ramada OS lines (RmHO‐1, RmHO‐2)
