Journal ArticleDOI

How tree roots respond to drought

TL;DR: Current knowledge about responses of tree roots to drought supports the view that tree roots are well equipped to withstand drought situations and maintain morphological and physiological functions as long as possible.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Molecular Timetable for Apical Bud Formation and Dormancy Induction in Poplar

TL;DR: The identification of a large set of genes commonly expressed during the growth-to-dormancy transitions in poplar apical buds, cambium, or Arabidopsis thaliana seeds suggests parallels in the underlying molecular mechanisms in different plant organs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recovery of trees from drought depends on belowground sink control

TL;DR: These findings show that trees prioritize the investment of assimilates below ground, probably to regain root functions after drought, and propose that root restoration plays a key role in ecosystem resilience to drought, in that the increased sink activity controls the recovery of carbon balances.
Journal ArticleDOI

Seasonal change in the drought response of wood cell development in poplar.

TL;DR: Late-summer drought had no significant effect on fiber and vessel cell development in field-grown poplar trees, indicating that sensitivity of wood cell development to drought varies seasonally.
Journal ArticleDOI

Provenance-specific growth responses to drought and air warming in three European oak species (Quercus robur, Q. petraea and Q. pubescens)

TL;DR: Shoot height growth was found to be more sensitive to drought in provenances from northern latitudes than in provenance from southern latitudes, suggesting that genetic factors related to the postglacial immigration history of European oaks might have interfered with selective pressure at provenance origins.
