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.

Potential for evolutionary responses to climate change – evidence from tree populations

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.

Evidence that fungal pathogens inhibit recruitment of a shade-intolerant tree, white birch (Betula papyrifera), in understory habitats
TL;DR: Fungicide is applied to seeds buried in old fields, treefall gaps, and forest understory sites to determine whether losses to fungi of seeds of Betula papyrifera varied between habitats that differed in their degree of openness, and found that the application of fungicide significantly reduced losses in all habitats, relative to control values.

Light responses of mire mosses – a key to survival after water-level drawdown?
TL;DR: The dominant Sphagna in the open pristine conditions seem to be stress tolerant, while the dominants of the shaded drained mire appear to be species capable of maximizing their growth and production to compete in the unstressful conditions in terms of light and desiccation.

The Oxidative Burst: Roles in Signal Transduction and Plant Stress
TL;DR: This chapter describes and discusses the oxidative burst (OXB) in plants, which is characterized by a rapid and transient generation of active oxygen species (AOS) immediately after exposure to certain stresses.

Physiological consequences of height-related morphological variation in Sequoia sempervirens foliage
TL;DR: Relationships between foliar morphology and gas exchange characteristics as they vary with height within and among crowns of Sequoia sempervirens D. Don trees are examined, suggesting a transition from light to water relations as the primary determinant of morphology with increasing height.

Carbon dioxide exchange in Norway spruce at the shoot, tree and ecosystem scale.
TL;DR: Most of the measured variation in carbon exchange rate among the shoot, tree and ecosystem levels was the result of periodic low coupling between vegetation and the atmosphere at the ecosystem level.
