Responses of forest trees to single and multiple environmental stresses from seedlings to mature plants: Past stress history, stress interactions, tolerance and acclimation
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.About:

Chapter 12 - Long-term climate change: Projections, commitments and irreversibility
Matthew Collins,R. Knutti,Julie M. Arblaster,J.-L. Dufresne,T. Fichefet,P. Friedlingstein,Xuejie Gao,William J. Gutowski,T. Johns,Gerhard Krinner,Mxolisi Shongwe,C. Tebaldi,A.J. Weaver,M. F. Wehner +13 more
TL;DR: The authors assesses long-term projections of climate change for the end of the 21st century and beyond, where the forced signal depends on the scenario and is typically larger than the internal variability of the climate system.

The interaction of plant biotic and abiotic stresses: from genes to the field
Nicky J. Atkinson,Peter E. Urwin +1 more
TL;DR: This review aims to characterize the interaction between biotic and abiotic stress responses at a molecular level, focusing on regulatory mechanisms important to both pathways.

TL;DR: Responding to climate change will likely require that the quantitative traits of populations again match their environments, and it is found that genetic differentiation between populations and clinal variation along environmental gradients were very common.

The roles of hydraulic and carbon stress in a widespread climate-induced forest die-off
William R. L. Anderegg,Joseph A. Berry,Duncan D. Smith,John S. Sperry,Leander D. L. Anderegg,Christopher B. Field +5 more
TL;DR: A direct and in situ study of the mechanisms underlying recent widespread and climate-induced trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides) forest mortality in western North America and finds substantial evidence of hydraulic failure of roots and branches linked to landscape patterns of canopy and root mortality in this species.

TL;DR: In this paper, a feasible alternative strategy by application of rhizospheric bacteria coevolved with plant roots in harsh environments over millions of years, and harboring adaptive traits improving plant fitness under biotic and abiotic stresses.

Are shade tolerance, survival, and growth linked? Low light and nitrogen effects on hardwood seedlings
M. B. Walters,Peter B. Reich +1 more
TL;DR: Greater rates of growth and survival for shade-tolerance species in very low light, and for intolerant species in higher light, suggest that there is a species-based trade-off between maximizing growth in high light and min- imizing the light compensation point for growth.

Age-related changes in photosynthesis of woody plants
TL;DR: Woody peoffnials do not appear to go through a defined senescence phase but do have predictable developmental stages, although some studies have shown the opposite.

Photosynthetic rates in relation to nitrogen recycling as an adaptation to nutrient deficiency in peat bog plants
TL;DR: The hypothesis is advanced that the increased time available to use nitrogen photosynthetically before it is recycled is adaptive in bog plants, especially in evergreens, because of the difficulty in acquiring nitrogen from the extremely nutrient-deficient bog substrate.

A Cellular Timetable of Autumn Senescence
TL;DR: Degradation of leaf constituents took place over an 18-d period, and, although the cells in each leaf did not all senesce in parallel, senescence in the tree as a whole was synchronous.
