Direct and Indirect Effects of Environmental Limitations on White Spruce Xylem Anatomy at Treeline
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Treeline ecosystems are of great scientific interest to study the effects of limiting environmental conditions on tree growth. However, tree growth is multidimensional, with complex interactions between height and radial growth.

Functional adjustments of xylem anatomy to climatic variability: insights from long-termIlex aquifoliumtree-ring series [PDF]
Tree Physiology, 2015 The present study assessed the effects of climatic conditions on radial growth and functional anatomical traits, including ring width, vessel size, vessel frequency and derived variables, i.e., potential hydraulic conductivity and xylem vulnerability to cavitation in Ilex aquifolium L.

Xylem features detrending methods matter: A case study on earlywood vessels of Fraxinus mandshurica
Ecological Indicators, 2021 Xylem anatomy can provide valuable information about tree allometry and ecophysiological performance. It has unique advantages in the study of global climate change and forest adaptation compared to traditional ring-width or density proxy parameters ...

Phosphoinositides and inositol phosphates as molecular glues
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Inositol phosphates (IPs) and phosphoinositides (PIPs) regulate diverse eukaryotic processes. Beyond recruiting signaling proteins or acting as structural cofactors, recent studies suggest they mediate protein–protein interactions as natural molecular glues.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.
