Published in 2022 at "Ecology"

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3688

Abstract: Tree biomass allocation to leaves, roots, and wood affects the residence time of carbon in forests, with potentially dramatic implications for ecosystem carbon storage. However, drivers of tree biomass allocation remain poorly quantified. Using a… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Journal of Plant Growth Regulation"

DOI: 10.1007/s00344-019-09998-7

Abstract: Adjustments to the allocation of aboveground biomass allocation are an important component of the adaptive strategies of plant growth. Plants can modify their biomass allocation patterns to adapt to various environmental conditions. Sandy areas vary… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Journal of Plant Research"

DOI: 10.1007/s10265-019-01088-9

Abstract: In mountainous areas, plant distribution is constrained by various environmental stresses. Plasticity and constancy in plant functional traits may relate to optimal strategies at respective habitats and to ecotypic differentiation along elevation. Although plant biomass… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Journal of plant research"

DOI: 10.1007/s10265-021-01353-w

Abstract: Above- and belowground biomass allocation is an essential plant functional trait that reflects plant survival strategies and affects belowground carbon pool estimation in grasslands. However, due to the difficulty of distinguishing living and dead roots,… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Environmental and Experimental Botany"

DOI: 10.1016/j.envexpbot.2019.04.011

Abstract: Abstract The changes in climate registered at the planetary scale threaten the persistence of current populations for many plant species, with effects particularly evident at the edges of species distributions. However, intraspecific differences in functional… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-61147-3

Abstract: Phosphorus (P) is a non-renewable resource which may be depleted within next few decades; hence high P use efficiency is need of time. Plants have evolved an array of adaptive mechanisms to enhance external P… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/srep43087

Abstract: Isotopic measurements on junipers growing in southern California during the last glacial, when the ambient atmospheric [CO2] (ca) was ~180 ppm, show the leaf-internal [CO2] (ci) was approaching the modern CO2 compensation point for C3 plants.… read more here.
