High-Resolution X-Ray Computed Tomography: A New Workflow for the Analysis of Xylogenesis and Intra-Seasonal Wood Biomass Production [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Understanding tree growth and carbon sequestration are of crucial interest to forecast the feedback of forests to climate change. To have a global understanding of the wood formation, it is necessary to develop new methodologies for xylogenesis ...

Recommendations for assessing xylogenesis in angiosperm trees [PDF]

Quantitative Plant Biology
Understanding wood formation is critical for interpreting tree growth and carbon allocation under changing environmental conditions. While major progress has been made for gymnosperms, harmonized approaches for studying xylogenesis in angiosperms remain ...

Asynchronous xylogenesis among and within tree species in the central Congo Basin [PDF]

BMC Plant Biology
Background Xylogenesis is synchronous among trees in regions with a distinct growing season, leading to a forest-wide time lag between growth and carbon uptake.

Origin of Intra-annual Density Fluctuations in a Semi-arid Area of Northwestern China [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Intra-annual density fluctuation (IADF) is a structural modification of the tree ring in response to fluctuations in the weather. The expected changes in monsoon flow would lead to heterogeneous moisture conditions during the growing season and increase ...

Responses of isolated balsam-fir stem segments to exogenous ACC, IAA, and IBA [PDF]

Forestry Research
In this investigation, the effects of exogenous indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), indole-3-butyric acid (IBA), and 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) on anatomical development within cultured segments of Abies balsamea (L.) Mill.

Contrasting wood anatomy drives divergent xylogenesis and climate responses in 10 warm-temperate trees [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
Wood formation is crucial for understanding trees response to environmental conditions and assessing climate change impacts on carbon and water cycles. Nevertheless, species-specific differences in intra-annual radial growth dynamics remain incompletely ...

Divergence in leaf and cambium phenologies among three temperate tree species of different wood types with special reference to xylem hydraulics [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
Leaf and cambium phenologies are both important aspects of tree environmental adaptation in temperate areas. Temperate tree species with non-porous, diffuse-porous and ring-porous woods diverge substantially in the strategy of coping with freezing ...

Xylogenesis and phloemogenesis in the flesh of sweet cherry fruit are limited to early-stage development [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2022
Water inflows into sweet cherry fruit occur via the xylem and the phloem vasculatures of the pedicel. The rates of these inflows are subject to marked changes during fruit development.

Tree Growth Under Climate Change: Evidence From Xylogenesis Timings and Kinetics [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Tree growth is one of the most studied aspects of tree biology, particularly secondary growth. In the Mediterranean region, cambial activity is mostly determined by water availability.

Asynchronous and correlations of radial growth between different lateral meristems in Abies forrestii var. smithii [PDF]

BMC Plant Biology
Understanding radial growth phenology is crucial in the comprehension of tree physiology and its susceptibility to climate change. Numerous studies have investigated the impacts of radial growth activity in stem meristems and environmental factors on ...
