Direct and Indirect Effects of Environmental Limitations on White Spruce Xylem Anatomy at Treeline. [PDF]
<p>Treeline ecosystems are of great scientific interest to study the direct and indirect influence of limiting environmental conditions on tree growth. However, tree growth is complex and multidimensional, and its responses to the environment depend on a large number of abiotic and biotic factors and their interactions.</p> ...

Quantitative examination of the anatomy of the juvenile sugar maple xylem
New methodologies have enabled viable sap yields from juvenile sugar maple trees. To further improve yields, a better understanding of sap exudation is required. To achieve this, the anatomy of the xylem must first be fully characterised. We examine juvenile maple saplings using light optical microscopy (LOM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM ...

Xylem plasticity in Pinus pinaster and Quercus ilex growing at sites with different water availability in the Mediterranean region: relations between Intra-Annual Density Fluctuations and environmental conditions. [PDF]
Fluctuations in climatic conditions during the growing season are recorded in Mediterranean tree-rings and often result in intra-annual density fluctuations (IADFs).

Retrospective Analysis of Wood Anatomical Traits Reveals a Recent Extension in Tree Cambial Activity in Two High-Elevation Conifers [PDF]
The study of xylogenesis or wood formation is a powerful, yet labor intensive monitoring approach to investigate intra-annual tree growth responses to environmental factors.

Translational regulation contributes to the elevated CO2 response in two Solanum species. [PDF]
Understanding the impact of elevated CO2 (eCO2 ) in global agriculture is important given climate change projections. Breeding climate-resilient crops depends on genetic variation within naturally varying populations.

Impact of drought on Eucalyptus wood chemistry by near infra red hyperspectral imaging [PDF]
The aim is to study tree development submitted to different water and mineral constraints. The objective is to correlate spatial distribution of wood chemistry with wood density secondary growth.
