Journal ArticleDOI
Universal hydraulics of the flowering plants: vessel diameter scales with stem length across angiosperm lineages, habits and climates.

TL;DR: Data from 257 species shows that vessels widen as predicted with distance from the stem apex across angiosperm orders, habits and habitats, leading to testable predictions regarding evolutionary strategies allowing plants to minimise carbon costs per unit leaf area even as height increases.
Journal ArticleDOI
IAWA List of Microscopic Bark Features
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative Wood Anatomy—Practical Guidelines
TL;DR: Following a rigid protocol and quality control as proposed in this paper is thus mandatory to use quantitative data of xylem anatomical features as a powerful source for many research topics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Axial conduit widening in woody species: a still neglected anatomical pattern
TL;DR: In this paper, the axial diameter of the xylem conduits in a tree has been investigated and it has been shown that axial widening is an ineluctable feature of the vascular system in plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Limited capacity of tree growth to mitigate the global greenhouse effect under predicted warming.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that longevity requires slow growth rates at least in mountainous regions, and the interdependence between higher stem productivity, faster tree turnover, and shorter carbon residence time reduces the capacity of forest ecosystems to store carbon under a climate warming-induced stimulation of tree growth at policy-relevant timescales.
