Tree drought–mortality risk depends more on intrinsic species resistance than on stand species diversity
R Decarsin, J Guillemot, G Le Maire… - Global change …, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
Increasing tree diversity is considered a key management option to adapt forests to climate
change. However, the effect of species diversity on a forest's ability to cope with extreme …

Enhancing plant resilience: Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi's role in alleviating drought stress in vegetation concrete
S Guo, L Xia, D Xia, M Li, W Xu, L Liu - Frontiers in Plant Science, 2024 - frontiersin.org
Introduction Drought stress usually inhibits plant growth, which may increase the difficulty of
greening slopes. Methods In this study, we systematically investigated the effects of …

A framework to study and predict functional trait syndromes using phylogenetic and environmental data
P Sanchez‐Martinez, DD Ackerly… - Methods in Ecology …, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
Traits do not evolve in isolation but often as part of integrated trait syndromes, yet the relative
contributions of environmental effects and evolutionary history on traits and their correlations …

The rates of starch depletion and hydraulic failure both play a role in drought-induced seedling mortality
Key message The elapsed times to deplete starch concentrations and to reach a null
hydraulic safety margin were related to tree seedling mortality under experimental drought …

Contrasting drought tolerance traits of woody plants is associated with mycorrhizal types at the global scale
It is well‐known that the mycorrhizal type of plants correlates with different modes of nutrient
cycling and availability. However, the differences in drought tolerance between arbuscular …

Isohydricity and hydraulic isolation explain reduced hydraulic failure risk in an experimental tree species mixture
Species mixture is promoted as a crucial management option to adapt forests to climate
change. However, there is little consensus on how tree diversity affects tree water stress …
