An assessment of the remodelling of bifurcations in hazel (Corylus avellana L.) in response to bracing, drilling and splitting [PDF]
, 2016 This paper provides an insight into the ability of bifurcations in hazel trees to remodel themselves after bracing, drilling and splitting. The study uses evidence from field observations and testing the strength of these bifurcations using a universal ...

Xylem anatomy mediates growth and longevity in ponderosa pine
, 2017 We examined xylem anatomy in old and young ponderosa pine trees to determine if functional trade-offs due to hydraulics explain patterns of growth and longevity in conifers. We compared growth rates and xylem anatomical traits directly related to hydraulic function.

Identification of pathogenicity factors in the xylem-invading pathogen Xanthomonas albilineans by Transposon Mutagenesis [PDF]
, 2010 Xanthomonas albilineans is a systemic, xylem-invading pathogen that causes sugarcane leaf scald. Leaf symptoms vary from a single, white, narrow, sharply defined stripe to complete wilting and necrosis of infected leaves, leading to plant death.

Sensitivity of xylem vessel size and frequency to rainfall and temperature: implications for palaeontology [PDF]
, 1993 Based on the xylem vessel size and frequency in fossil wood, a number of studies have developed theories on climate change through time. The basic premise of these studies is that xylem vessel size decreases while vessel frequency increases with ...

Analysis of phenotypic plasticity in response to water constraints in coffee plants growing under field conditions [PDF]
, 2008 In a context of climate change, adaptation of perennial plantations to water constraints becomes a major concern for wood and fruit productivity. Adaptation depends on the level of genetic diversity in breeding and natural populations, as well as their ...
