TLDR
In seedlings of the deciduous ring-porous hardwood Quercus serrata, elevated temperature was a direct trigger for cambial reactivation and differentiation of first vessel elements, but might be important for the continuous formation of wide vessel elements.

Ecophysiological implications of vascular differentiation and plant evolution

TL;DR: Mechanisms regulating the responses of plants and their vascular tissues to environmental stimuli are mediated by continuously moving hormonal signals that enable continuous response to ecological cues, and are discussed for clarifying the role of the environment in vascular adaption and evolution.

Do changes in spring phenology affect earlywood vessels? Perspective from the xylogenesis monitoring of two sympatric ring-porous oaks.

TL;DR: The relationship between the timings of EV formation and xylem structure appears to be stronger for the temperate oak, whose larger vessels may result from thermal-induced earlier resumption, and in contrast, the sub-Mediterranean oak would maintain a more conservative hydraulic architecture under warming conditions.

Temperature and water potential co-limit stem cambial activity along a steep elevational gradient.

TL;DR: It is found that temperature alone explains the onset of tracheid production, yet water potential appears necessary to predict the ending and the total amount of trachesids produced annually.

Environmental conditions and vascular cambium regulate carbon allocation to xylem growth in deciduous oaks

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that xylogenesis is modulated by predisposing effects of dormant cambium size on xylem production and growing season length, and the high plasticity of cambial activity in deciduous oaks would confer resistance against recurrent summer drought through the improvement of the NSC status.

The Control of the Patterned Differentiation of Vascular Tissues

TL;DR: The results considered in the chapter suggest that plant hormones, and especially auxin, play an essential role both in the relation among plant organs and in the relations among neighboring cells.

Auxin as a positional signal in pattern formation in plants.

TL;DR: This work demonstrates the existence of a steep radial concentration gradient of the endogenous auxin, indole-3-acetic acid, over the lateral meristem responsible for the bulk of plant secondary growth, the vascular cambium in Pinus sylvestris trees, giving evidence for a regulatory system in plants based on positional signaling, similar to animal systems.

Indole-3-Acetic Acid Controls Cambial Growth in Scots Pine by Positional Signaling

TL;DR: The results indicate that IAA gives positional information in plants, which postulates that the width of the radial concentration gradient of IAA regulates the radial number of dividing cells in the cambial meristem, which is an important component for determining c Cambial growth rate.

A Radial Concentration Gradient of Indole-3-Acetic Acid Is Related to Secondary Xylem Development in Hybrid Aspen.

TL;DR: Analysis of radial distribution pattern of indole-3-acetic acid in the stem of hybrid aspen indicates that IAA has a role in regulating not only the rate of physiological processes such as cell division, but also the duration of developmental processessuch as xylem fiber expansion, suggesting that I AA functions as a morphogen, conveying positional information duringxylem development.

Regulation of cambial activity in relation to environmental conditions: understanding the role of temperature in wood formation of trees

TL;DR: The present review focuses on temperature regulation on the timing of cambial reactivation and xylem differentiation in trees, and also highlights recent advances in the understanding of seasonal changes in the cold stability of microtubules in trees.
