Comparative wood anatomy of Ficus cestrifolia (Moraceae) in two distinct soil conditions

Rodriguésia
Wood anatomical traits respond to environmental variables and among them, soil has a direct impact on secondary xylem. This study compares the wood anatomy of two populations of Ficus cestrifolia occurring in two lowland formations of Southern Brazil ...

Disentangling intra-annual Pinus sylvestris growth responses to hydro-climatic conditions: Insights from quantitative wood anatomy in peatlands

Science of the Total Environment
Peatlands are vital ecosystems that regulate global carbon storage and hydrology, driven by waterlogged conditions that foster organic matter accumulation. However, disentangling the interactions between climate, hydrology, and tree growth in peatlands remains challenging.

Macchia or forest? Toward the reconstruction of Ericaceae formations in Corsica (NW Mediterranean) during the Holocene using a quantitative wood anatomy analysis

Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports
Arbutus unedo L. is very abundant in pre-and protohistoric anthracological assemblages of Corsica (northwestern Mediterranean). In the present day, it is a dominant species, along with Erica arborea L., of the macchia, a shrubland ecosystem that covers a major part of the island.

Relationships Between Wood-Anatomical Features and Resistance Drilling Density in Norway Spruce and European Beech

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Environmental conditions affect tree-ring width (TRW), wood structure, and, consequently, wood density, which is one of the main wood quality indicators.

Montane forest tree species have lower hydraulic efficiency and vulnerability than lowland forest species in the Atlantic Forest [PDF]

Rodriguésia
The adaptations of plants to different environments are closely related to their wood anatomical traits. This study investigated the wood anatomy of a montane forest community and compared it with anatomical data from three other areas in the Atlantic ...

Comparative wood anatomy of species of Psychotria L. (Rubiaceae) in Atlantic Rainforest remnants of Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil

Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2015
Psychotria is the largest Rubiaceae genus and one of the most abundant in the Atlantic Rainforest of Rio de Janeiro State. The present work aims to characterize and compare the wood of nine of these species.

Quantitative wood anatomy and stable carbon isotopes indicate pronounced drought exposure of Scots pine when growing at the forest edge

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2023
Climate change poses a major threat to global forest ecosystems. In particular, rising temperatures and prolonged drought spells have led to increased rates of forest decline and dieback in recent decades. Under this framework, forest edges are particularly prone to drought-induced decline since they are characterized by warmer and drier micro-climatic
