"As water potential is regarded the best indicator of plant water status, because it is the integrated result of above- and below-ground environmental conditions, it holds promise as a pivotal model variable to which...

Principles of resilient coding for plant ecophysiologists
Tired: Remembering if ‘ACi_sol_C_1.xlsx’ or ‘ACi_sol_D_v3.xlsx’ has correct parameter estimates. Wired: Using reproducible, scalable code to analyse data.

Quantifying root and shoot growth in wheat using X-ray Computed Tomography
How are relationships between root and shoot growth incluenced by drought and soil type in wheat?
No acclimation: flexible responses of photosynthesis to different temperatures in American elm
Will photosynthetic processes of trees be able to keep up with future changes in temperature and precipitation under climate change?
Short- and long-term responses to elevated carbon dioxide use the same genetic controls
Manipulating stomatal traits could produce more crops for dry regions.

Hydraulic adjustments are of limited use in bracken fern
Changes in leaf anatomy, more than hydraulics, allowed the ferns to thrive in a high light environment.
Stomatal anatomy coordinates leaf size with Rubisco kinetics in Limonium
Stomatal anatomy integrates Rubisco kinetics and leaf size in Limonium species, consistent with selection on functional coordination and shared developmental pathways.
Seedling responses to salinity of 26 Neotropical tree species
How will coastal ecosystems change when some seedling can tolerate rising tides, and others cannot?
Drought tolerance strategies of conifer species in the northwestern US
As trees photosynthesize, using carbon from the atmosphere to grow and store energy, they also lose water to the air (transpire). During a drought, continuing to photosynthesize and transpire puts trees at risk of...
Root responses in Arundo donax
When soils dry they don't dry uniformly, some parts remain damper than others. How does a reed like Arundo donax respond?

Stomatal conductance and elevated CO2
Studies have indicated that plant stomatal conductance (gs) decreases in response to elevated atmospheric CO2, a phenomenon of significance for the global hydrological cycle. However, gs increases across certain CO2...

Structural and functional responses of coffee trees to elevated [CO2]
Air [CO2] tends to increase due to climate changes, affecting plant growth. Field-grown Coffea arabica trees were grown under actual and elevated [CO2] for four years. Rakocevic et al. find that elevated [CO2]...
Maize nutrient uptake and photosynthesis in intercropping
Maize and wheat are globally important food crops. The two species can be grown as an intercrop, with substantial land sparing in the order of 20%, as expressed by a land equivalent ratio of approximately 1.2. In a...

GrapevineXL: a model coupling plant water transport and leaf gas exchange
Quantifying the response of plant water status to environmental conditions and its effect on carbon acquisition are essential for simulating plant growth and fruit composition, especially in the context of climate...
