A Global analysis of parenchyma tissue fractions in secondary xylem of seed plants

TL;DR: This work uses data from the literature on AP and RP fractions to investigate the potential relationships of climate and growth form with total ray and axial parenchyma fractions and finds a 29‐fold variation in RAP fraction, which was more strongly related to temperature than with precipitation.

Growth Rings in Herbs and Shrubs: life span, age determination and stem anatomy

TL;DR: Techniques and prerequisites to identify growth rings and then to validate that they are actually annual rings are presented, and preliminary results evaluating the data set show that lifespan may be limited by temperature and nutrients.

Variations In Dieot Wood Anatomy: A Global Analysis Based on the Insidewood Database

TL;DR: Information from the Inside Wood database when combined with detailed information on ecological and geographical distributions of species, and subjected to more robust statistical analyses can be used to address a variety of questions on the evolution of wood structure and the ecological and phylogenetic significance of suites of features.

Cretaceous and early Tertiary climates of Antarctica: evidence from fossil wood

TL;DR: Fossil wood is abundant in Cretaceous and early Tertiary sediments of the northern Antarctic Peninsula region and provides important information about temperature, rainfall, seasonality and climate trends for this time period in Antarctica as discussed by the authors.

Vertical resin ducts in the secondary wood of the abietineae

TL;DR: Character of the tissue associated with the ducts and its interpretation and distribution at wounds andPhylogenetic interpretations and fossil evidence are presented.

Outdoor wood weathering and protection.

TL;DR: The natural weathering process causes exposed wood to discolour and degrade through the effect of light, moisture and staining micro-organisms as mentioned in this paper, but since light does not penetrate wood deeper than 200 mm, degradations reactions are a surface phenomenon.
