Functional relationships between wood structure and vulnerability to xylem cavitation in races of Eucalyptus globulus differing in wood density
(Oxford University Press, 2018-02)
Wood density can be considered as a measure of the internal wood structure, and it is usually used as a proxy measure of other mechanical and functional traits. Eucalyptus is one of the most important commercial forestry ...
Coordinated plasticity maintains hydraulic safety in sunflower leaves
(Plant, Cell & Environment, 2019)
Dynamics of cavitation in a Douglas-fir tree-ring: transition-wood, the lord of the ring?
(INRA, 2014-11)
The objective of this work wa s to investigate the dynamics of embolism formation within a Douglas fir tree ring . Four resistant and four vulnerable 10 year old trees were selected among 50 trees, based on their P 50 . ...
Leaf and stem hydraulic traits in relation to growth, water use and fruit yield in Prunus avium L. cultivars
(Springer, 2013-07)
Physio-anatomical traits of rootstock have been considered as determinants of vigor in grafted plants. We evaluated how hydraulic traits of three Prunus avium cultivars grown on the same rootstock are related to tree growth ...
Assessment of resistance to xylem cavitation in cordilleran cypress using near-infrared spectroscopy
(Elsevier Science, 2020-04)
Characterizing drought resistance of forest trees is an important aim in the worldwide context of increasing forest decline and dieback. Furthermore, wood demand is increasing all around the world, urging the need for the ...
Removal of nutrient limitations in forest gaps enhances growth rate and resistance to cavitation in subtropical canopy tree species differing in shade tolerance
(Oxford University Press, 2013-02)
A 4-year fertilization experiment with nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) was carried out in natural gaps of a subtropical forest in northeastern Argentina. Saplings of six dominant canopy species differing in shade tolerance ...

Hydraulic differences along the water transport system of South American Nothofagus species: Do leaves protect the stem functionality?
(Oxford University Press, 2012-07)
Hydraulic traits were studied for six Nothofagus species from South America (Argentina and Chile), and for three of these species two populations were studied. The main goal was to determine if properties of the water ...
Different drought-adaptive capacity of a native Patagonian tree species (Nothofagus pumilio) resulting from local adaptation
(Springer, 2021-06)
The resistance of different genotypes to abiotic stress may be due to genetic effects and/or to phenotypic plasticity allowing them to acclimate to variable conditions. The contribution of one or the other mechanism ...
