Xylem vessel-diameter–shoot-length scaling: ecological significance of porosity types and other traits
Mark E. Olson,Julieta A. Rosell,Cecilia Martínez-Pérez,Calixto León-Gómez,Alex Fajardo,Sandrine Isnard,María Angélica Cervantes-Alcayde,Alberto Echeverría,Víctor A. Figueroa-Abundiz,Alí Segovia-Rivas,Santiago Trueba,Santiago Trueba,Karen Vázquez-Segovia +12 more
TL;DR: The methods illustrate how vessel diameter can be studied taking shoot length into account to detect ecologically important variation and construct theory regarding plant adaptation via the hydraulic system that includes plant size as a vital element.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stem length, not climate, controls vessel diameter in two trees species across a sharp precipitation gradient.
TL;DR: This study tested the effect of climate versus stem length on vessel diameter in two tree species that both span an exceptionally wide precipitation gradient and showed unequivocally that plant size, not climate, is the main driver of variation in vessel diameter.
Journal ArticleDOI
Towards the flower economics spectrum.
Adam B. Roddy,Cecilia Martínez-Pérez,Alberto L. Teixido,Tatiana Cornelissen,Mark E. Olson,Rafael S. Oliveira,Fernando A. O. Silveira +6 more
TL;DR: It is discussed how coordinated evolution and trade-offs among floral traits and between floral and vegetative traits may influence the distribution of floral traits across biomes and lineages, thereby influencing organismal evolution and community assembly.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The Widened Pipe Model (WPM) as discussed by the authors predicts that xylem conduits should be narrowest at the stem tips, widening quickly before plateauing toward the stem base.
