Is sensitivity to xylem cavitation a relevant physiological trait for fodder production in dry season? [PDF]
, 2013 In the Sahel parklands, trees can provide fodder during the dry season if they keep functional foliage. In such conditions, the xylem vessels sustain high tension which can induce cavitation, decrease the conduction of sap and lead to branch mortality ...

Tree differences in primary and secondary growth drive convergent scaling in leaf area to sapwood area across Europe [PDF]
, 2018 open28siTrees scale leaf (AL) and xylem (AX) areas to couple leaf transpiration and carbon gain with xylem water transport. Some species are known to acclimate in AL : AX balance in response to climate conditions, but whether trees of different species ...

Comparative sectoriality in temperate hardwoods: hydraulics and xylem anatomy [PDF]
Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2006 In wood, lateral transport of water and minerals occurs readily in ‘integrated’ trees but is more restricted in ‘sectored species’. Dye distribution and a novel hydraulic technique are used to quantify species-specific differences in sectoriality in three temperate hardwoods, Betula papyrifera, Acer saccharum and Quercus rubra. Sectoriality was related

New type of vulnerability curve gives insight in the hydraulic capacitance and conductivity of the xylem [PDF]
, 2013 Drought vulnerability of trees and other woody plants is much debated in the context of climate change, which creates a high interest in understanding plant water relations.

Roots Structure and Development of Austrobaileya scandens (Austrobaileyaceae) and Implications for Their Evolution in Angiosperms [PDF]
, 2020 Since the resolution of the ANA grade [Amborellales, Nymphaeales, Austrobaileyales] as sister to all other flowering plants, a few comparative studies of root structure have suggested that some of their anatomical traits could be of importance to ...

The peripheral xylem of grapevine (Vitis vinifera) berries. 2. Anatomy and development [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2008 It has been hypothesized that the substantial reductions in xylemic water flow occurring at veraison are due to physical disruption (breaking) of the xylem as a result of renewed berry growth. In a companion paper, evidence was presented that the vast majority of xylem tracheary elements remained intact despite the growth of the berry, and it was ...

Intensity of Vascular Streak Dieback in Different Cocoa Clones and Various Agro-climatic Conditions [PDF]
, 2017 Vascular streak dieback (VSD) is one of the main diseases on cocoa. This disease can produce a heavy damage in susceptible plants. Agro-climatic condition influences the VSD disease severity level.

Stomatal abundance and distribution in Prosopis strombulifera plants growing under different Iso-Osmotic salt [PDF]
, 2013 Changes in several environmental parameters are thought to affect stomatal development. Under salt stress, plants can regulate their transpiration flux through a better control of the stomatal opening (as a short-term response) and through modifications ...
