Individualistic responses of forest herb traits to environmental change [PDF]
Intraspecific trait variation (ITV; i.e. variability in mean and/or distribution of plant attribute values within species) can occur in response to multiple drivers.

The relationship of leaf photosynthetic traits - V-cmax and J(max) - to leaf nitrogen, leaf phosphorus, and specific leaf area: a meta-analysis and modeling study [PDF]
Great uncertainty exists in the global exchange of carbon between the atmosphere and the terrestrial biosphere. An important source of this uncertainty lies in the dependency of photosynthesis on the maximum rate of carboxylation (Vcmax) and the maximum ...

Trees - Structure and Function / Specific leaf area of European Larch (Larix decidua Mill.) [PDF]
Specific leaf area (SLA) is defined as the ratio between projected leaf area and needle dry mass. It often serves as parameter in ecosystem modelling as well as indicator for potential growth rate. We explore the SLA of European larch (Larix decidua) and

Eco-Morphological and Physiological Behaviours of Atriplex halimus L. Under Different Natural Habitats [PDF]
Atriplex halimus is a widely distributed species in the Mediterranean coastal areas and can grow under saline and non-saline habitats. Plant leaves were collected from two habitats; non-saline (1.14 dSm-1) and saline (30.63 dSm-1) at Borg Alarab area ...

Evaluation of Argentine wild sunflower biotypes for drought stress during reproductive stage [PDF]
As in several regions where sunflower production has moved to areas with limiting water availability, the search for water-stress tolerant genotypes has been intensified. Helianthus annuus ssp. annuus L.

Leaf trait divergence between Azadirachta indica (exotic) and native species of the northern Brazilian coast [PDF]
The introduction of exotic plants can pose ecological threats as they may become invasive. We investigated leaf traits potentially linked to competitive advantage and invasiveness in Azadirachta indica, a widely used exotic tree in northeastern Brazil’s ...
