A re-assessment of high elevation treeline positions and their explanation
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that the life form “tree” is limited at treeline altitudes by the potential investment, rather than production, of assimilates (growth as such,rather than photosynthesis or the carbon balance, being limited), and root zone temperature, though largely unknown, is likely to be most critical.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tree and forest functioning in response to global warming
TL;DR: This review focuses on tree and forest responses at boreal and temperate latitudes, ranging from the cellular to the ecosystem level, and management is critical for a positive response of forest growth to a warmer climate.

Shilong Piao,Shilong Piao,Qiang Liu,Anping Chen,Ivan A. Janssens,Yongshuo H. Fu,Yongshuo H. Fu,Junhu Dai,Lingli Liu,Xu Lian,Miaogen Shen,Xiaolin Zhu +11 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that future studies should primarily focus on using new observation tools to improve the understanding of tropical plant phenology, on improving process-based phenology modeling, and on the scaling of phenology from species to landscape-level.

Journal ArticleDOI
Carbohydrate sources and sinks in woody plants
TL;DR: Each perennial woody plant is a highly integrated system of competing carbohydrate sinks (utilization sites).

Book
Plant Strategies and Vegetation Processes
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present plant strategies in the established phase and the regenerative phase in the emerging phase, respectively, and discuss the relationship between the two phases: primary strategies and secondary strategies.

Responses of plants to environmental stresses
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the responses of plants to environmental stresses and found that plants respond to environmental stress in response to various types of stressors, such as drought and flooding.
Book
Physiology of woody plants
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explain how physiological processes (such as photosynthesis, respiration, transpiration, carbohydrate, nitrogen and mineral relations) are involved in the growth of woody plants and how they are affected by the environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Use of Fluorescein Diacetate and Phenosafranine for Determining Viability of Cultured Plant Cells
TL;DR: The most suitable dyes tested were fluorescein diacetate for viable cells and phenosafranine for dead cells and these dyes stained specifically whether the cells were from cultures of different ages, of different species or if the cells had been treated in various, often toxic, ways.
