Hydraulics and life history of tropical dry forest tree species: coordination of species’ drought and shade tolerance

New Phytologist, 2011
Plant hydraulic architecture has been studied extensively, yet we know little about how hydraulic properties relate to species’ life history strategies, such as drought and shade tolerance. The prevailing theories seem contradictory.

A study on the shade tolerance ofMuehlewbeckia complera

Journal of Forestry Research, 2004
Muehlewbeckia complera was introduced to China in 2002 as indoor-hanging ornamental foliage plant. The experiment of the shade tolerance for this species was carried out in different light intensities (0.14–946.00 μmol·m−2·s−1). After 40 days in experimental areas, leaf photosynthentic characteristics indexes ofM.

Are Shade-Tolerant Plants Also Drought-Tolerant

Inquiry@Queen's Undergraduate Research Conference Proceedings
This study examines the relationship between drought and shade tolerance in herbaceous plants, which is traditionally assumed to be mutually exclusive due to divergent resource allocation strategies. By collecting and analyzing relevant biochemical and morphological traits on a variety of plants native to grasslands in south eastern Ontario, a ...

Is Tolerance the Capacity to Endure Shade?

Journal of Forestry, 1943
Abstract In 1917, the S.A.F. Committee on Terminology defined tolerance as the capacity of a species to endure shade. Proponents of the root competition theory have broadened the definition to include ability to withstand competition for soil moisture, soil nutrients, and other factors.

Shade-tolerance as a predictor of responses to elevated CO2 in trees

Physiologia Plantarum, 1998
Evidence from 10 studies comparing angiosperm trees and 5 studies comparing conifers or differing shade-tolerance was analysed. The number of intraphyletic comparisons in which the more shade-tolerant species showed the greater relative increase of ...

Meta-analysis of the interaction between shade-tolerance,light environment and growth response of woody species to elevated CO2

Acta Oecologica, 2001
Growth responses of different tree species to elevated CO2 vary enormously, even when grown under the same basic experimental conditions (such as nutrient supply and light conditions).

On the Relationship between Shade Tolerance and Shade Avoidance Strategies in Woodland Plants

Oikos, 1997
Decreasing light availability with time is one of the primary factors that drives autogenic succession in woodland communities. In many successions, the pattern of species replacement appears to be largely a consequence of a negative correlation across species between adaptation to high irradiance and adaptation to low irradiance (Bazzaz 1979, Oliver ...

Inter‐ and intraspecific relationships between shade tolerance and shade avoidance in temperate trees

Oikos, 2001
Patterns of physiological and architectural adaptation and acclimation to decreasing light availability were investigated along a light gradient for saplings of 12 common species of temperate deciduous trees in southeastern Ontario, Canada. Physiological adaptation and acclimation (shade tolerance physiology) were quantified at the leaf level by ...

Scalable shade tolerant modules. SSTM [PDF]

, 2019
Photovoltaic (PV) modules are mainly available in one standard size , which means that full roof coverage of PV modules asks for expensive tailor-made modules. Besides that, the interconnection between the cells in a standard module is very sensitive to partial shade on the module, where a small shadow can already result in a substantial drop of the ...
