TLDR
In this article, a review of tree physiological responses to key environmental stress factors and their combinations are analyzed from seedlings to mature trees, concluding that combined stresses can influence survival of large trees even more than chronic exposure to a single predictable stress such as drought.

Assessment of the Biochemical Responses of Wheat Seedlings to Soil Drought after Application of Selective Herbicide.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of Serrate® (Syngenta) on wheat seedlings were investigated under different treatment conditions, including drought and herbicide-plus-droughts.

The triangular space of abiotic stress tolerance in woody species: a unified trade-off model.

TL;DR: Using the most extensive database available on shade, drought, waterlogging and cold tolerance for 799 northern hemisphere woody species, the number of dimensions needed to summarize their tolerance combinations, and the best trade-off model, among those currently available, for description of the interdependence between tolerances are determined.

Empirical models for measuring the leaf area and leaf mass across growing periods in broadleaf species with two life histories

TL;DR: It is shown that both life history and growing period generally had a more significant effect on predicting LM than LA for the two L:W categories, indicating that the developed combined empirical models were generally effective in predicting LA and LM in other broadleaf species.

Integrating dynamic plant growth models and microclimates for species distribution modelling

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the potential for using a Dynamic Energy Budget model of organism growth integrated with microclimate and photosynthesis models to predict the distribution of plant species at the continental scale.
