Evidence for regulation of transpiration in nonstomatal plants: insights from bryophyte gametophytes
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Kinetics of cell wall water vapor potential (Ψcw) and resistance of cell wall and plasmatic membrane to water flux in response to cytoplasmic water potential (Ψcyt) during dehydration. Ψcyt was calculated from the WC at any moment of the dehydration curve by using the relationship between −1/Ψw and WC of pressure volume curves and assuming Ψw = Ψcyt ...

Novel Glomeromycotina–moss associations identified in California dryland biocrusts
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Drylands, which comprise c. 45% of Earth's land area, host biological soil crusts (biocrusts): symbiotic communities of cyanobacteria, fungi, algae, lichen, and bryophytes that stabilize soil and support key ecosystem functions. Moss‐dominated biocrusts are particularly interesting due to their potential to illuminate ancient bryophyte–fungal ...

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Increasingly variable climate conditions are affecting crop production, leading to greater yield fluctuations, which in turn are impacting global food security. Introducing alleles from regions where the expected stress conditions occur, so‐called exotic alleles, could serve as a means to mitigate these effects. We examined the value of exotic

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The increasing frequency of concurrent heat and drought stress poses a significant challenge to agricultural productivity, particularly for cool‐season grain legumes, including broad bean (Vicia Faba L.), lupin (Lupinus spp.), lentil (Lens culinaris Medik), chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), grasspea (Lathyrus sativus L.), pea (Pisum sativum L ...

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

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Climate change‐driven heat and drought stresses during reproductive stages significantly threaten wheat productivity. To investigate the genetic and physiological basis of combined heat–drought (HD) tolerance, we evaluated 345 wheat genotypes under three environments of HD stresses, non‐stress glasshouse conditions and a late‐sowing field ...

Afforestation priority for multiple objectives at national scale: Italy as a case study
Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Afforestation is increasingly recognized as a key strategy to address climate change and ecological degradation, offering multiple ecosystem services. However, strategic planning is needed to ensure that afforestation actions are ecologically effective and economically efficient by targeting areas where ecosystem service provision

Sedimentology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT One of the largest wetlands on Earth, the Brazilian Pantanal contains roughly 10 000 natural lakes, about 1000 of which are hypersaline. In these environmentally stressful settings, animal life struggles to survive, while cyanobacteria form extensive mats.
