Greater Resistance to Drought‐Induced Embolism Is Linked to Higher Yield Maintenance in Soybean

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With increasing drought events worldwide, crop breeding must focus on drought resistance to maintain crop yields. To ensure a high level of gas exchange and growth, plants need to maintain the integrity of their vascular system under drought conditions. While the impact of drought‐induced vascular damage on tree species is well‐documented, its

The legacy of past droughts induces water‐sparingly behaviour in Grüner Veltliner grapevines

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Grapevines with a drought history showed increased water use efficiency in a non‐water‐limited season, in coordination with morpho‐anatomical modifications of leaf, xylem anatomy and stomata, suggesting significant drought legacies. Abstract Drought is becoming more frequent and severe in numerous wine‐growing regions.

Turgor loss point explains climate‐driven growth reductions in trees in Central Europe

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Leaf turgor loss point of native tree species shows a high predictive power over the observed growth anomalies in Central Europe during the extensive drought period between 2018 and 2020. Abstract As climate change thrives, and the frequency of intense droughts is affecting many forested regions, a mechanistic understanding of the factors conferring ...

Functional traits explain growth response to successive hotter droughts across a wide set of common and future tree species in Europe

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Functional traits can explain significant tree growth reductions in response to the 2018–2020 drought for a wide set of 71 species including angiosperms and gymnosperms. Moreover, four distinct response types emerged: ‘Sufferer’, ‘Late sufferer’, ‘Recoverer’ and ‘Resister’, with gymnosperms predominately appearing as ‘Sufferer’ and ‘Late sufferer ...

Positive mixture effects in pine–oak forests during drought are context‐dependent

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Mixture effects in drought‐stressed pine‐oak forests are context‐dependent, with Gambel oak and ponderosa pine benefiting from their complementarity under semi‐arid conditions. Abstract The increasing severity and frequency of droughts will play a pivotal role in shaping future forest ecosystems worldwide.

Dual Polarimetric Radar Vegetation Index for monitoring forest moisture stress using time series of Sentinel‐1 SAR data

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the potential of the Sentinel‐1 Dual Polarimetric Radar Vegetation Index, combined with climate variables and the Standardized Precipitation–Evapotranspiration Index, to effectively detect and monitor drought‐induced stress in temperate broadleaf deciduous forests.

Recurrent hot droughts cause persistent legacy effects in a temperate Scots Pine forest

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
A series of hot drought events caused persistent legacy effects in a Scots Pine forest, with severe negative impacts on ecosystem carbon fluxes. Abstract Recent hot‐dry events have caused significant impacts and legacy effects in temperate ecosystems. Here, we investigate legacy effects of the 2018 hot drought on a Pinus sylvestris L.
