Coordination of Foliar and Wood Anatomical Traits Contributes to Tropical Tree Distributions and Productivity along the Malay-Thai Peninsula [PDF]

, 2009
Drought is a critical factor in plant species distributions. Much research points to its relevance even in moist tropical regions. Recent studies have begun to elucidate mechanisms underlying the distributions of tropical tree species with respect to ...

Biomass Equations for Tropical Forest Tree Species in Mozambique [PDF]

Forests, 2014
Chanfuta (Afzelia quanzensis Welw.), Jambire (Millettia stuhlmannii Taub.) and Umbila (Pterocarpus angolensis D.C.) are, among others, three of the main tropical tree species producing commercial timber in Mozambique. The present study employed destructive biomass estimation methods at three localities in Mozambique (Inhaminga, Mavume, and Tome) to ...

Multiomics studies with co-transformation reveal microRNAs via miRNA-TF-mRNA network participating in wood formation in Hevea brasiliensis

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
IntroductionMicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small endogenous non-coding RNAs that play an important role in wood formation in plants. However, the significance of the link between miRNAs and their target transcripts in wood formation remains unclear in rubber ...

Lianas Suppress Seedling Growth and Survival of 14 Tree Species in a Panamanian Tropical Forest [PDF]

, 2016
Lianas are a common plant growth form in tropical forests, where they compete intensely with trees, decreasing tree recruitment, growth, and survival. If the detrimental effects of lianas vary significantly with tree species identity, as is often assumed,

A catastrophic tropical drought kills hydraulically vulnerable tree species [PDF]

Global Change Biology, 2020
AbstractDrought‐related tree mortality is now a widespread phenomenon predicted to increase in magnitude with climate change. However, the patterns of which species and trees are most vulnerable to drought, and the underlying mechanisms have remained elusive, in part due to the lack of relevant data and difficulty of predicting the location of ...
