Warming Events Advance or Delay Spring Phenology by Affecting Bud Dormancy Depth in Trees

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
The frequency of sudden, strong warming events is projected to increase in the future. The effects of such events on spring phenology of trees might depend on their timing because spring warming has generally been shown to advance spring budburst while ...

Land surface phenology detections from multi-source remote sensing indices capturing canopy photosynthesis phenology across major land cover types in the Northern Hemisphere

Ecological Indicators, 2022
Land surface phenology, which records the start of growing season (SOS) and the end of growing season (EOS), plays an essential part in reflecting plant photosynthesis and the response of carbon cycle in terrestrial ecosystems to climate change ...

Leaf‐out phenology of temperate woody plants: from trees to ecosystems [PDF]

New Phytologist, 2011
SummaryLeafing‐out of woody plants begins the growing season in temperate forests and is one of the most important drivers of ecosystem processes. There is substantial variation in the timing of leaf‐out, both within and among species, but the leaf development of almost all temperate tree and shrub species is highly sensitive to temperature.

Urbanization and Seasonality Increase Introduced Plant Consumption by the World's Southernmost Parrot 城市化与季节性增加了全球最南端鹦鹉对引入植物的取食

Integrative Conservation, EarlyView.
Urbanization may alter bird foraging. Austral Parakeets (Enicognathus ferrugineus) in Patagonia rely on introduced plants in urban areas, especially in winter, despite preferring natives in the wild. This seasonal reliance on introduced species highlights urbanization trade‐offs and underscores the need to manage green areas with native plants to ...

Mulching Increases Water Use Efficiency, Production and Profitability in Forage Cactus–Maize Intercropping Systems

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the growth, forage production, soil water balance, water indices, biological efficiency and competitive capacity of forage cactus and maize in monoculture and intercropping, with or without mulch. The experiment was conducted in Serra Talhada, Pernambuco, Brazil, using the cactus clone ‘Orelha de Elefante Mexicana’ (OEM ...

Seasonal Predictions and Their Applications in the Mediterranean Region: Part I—Sources of Predictability and Prediction Skill

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The ability to predict climate fluctuations at seasonal timescales offers significant socio‐economic benefits. However, limited understanding of predictability mechanisms and model errors hinders forecast quality. Recent research has improved forecasting systems and data quality.

Bud Composition, Branching Patterns and Leaf Phenology in Cerrado Woody Species [PDF]

Annals of Botany, 2005
Plants have complex mechanisms of aerial biomass exposition, which depend on bud composition, the period of the year in which shoot extension occurs, branching pattern, foliage persistence, herbivory and environmental conditions.The influence of water availability and temperature on shoot growth, the bud composition, the leaf phenology, and the ...

Influence of genetic diversity, drought stress and rhizobial symbiosis on the nutritional quality of common vetch (Vicia sativa L.) grain

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Legumes are the primary source of plant protein in both human and livestock diets and, therefore, play an essential role in nutrition. Common vetch (Vicia sativa L.) is a grain legume widely used in animal feed. Its nutritional properties, particularly its high protein content, make it an adequate component to enrich feedstuffs ...

Phenology and leaf adaptive strategies of Mediterranean maquis plants

Ecologia mediterranea, 1997
La dynamique des activités végétatives et reproductives a été comparée entre différentes espèces du maquis méditerranéen et leurs stratégies adaptatives ont été étudiées. Les espèces sclérophylles sempervirentes et semi-caduques montrent des différences dans le comportement phénologique et dans le développement des bourgeons et des feuilles.

Tetrataenium paikadae (Apiaceae), a new species from the Western Ghats, India

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
A new species, Tetrataenium paikadae C.Rekha, Manudev & Prasanth (Apiaceae), is described from the State of Kerala, India. The new species is characterised by its hirsute to hispid stems, broadly ovate or rounded leaflets, long petioles with hirsute leaf sheaths, tomentose rays, symmetric flowers, ovate‐lanceolate involucel bracteoles, and mericarp ...
