Abstract: In cold and humid temperate forests, low temperature, late frost, and frequent freeze-thaw cycles are the main factors limiting tree growth and survival. Ring- and diffuse-porous tree species differing in xylem anatomy coexist in these… read more here.

Abstract: Ion-mediated changes in hydraulic conductivity (ΔKh) represent a mechanism allowing plants to regulate the rate of xylem transport. However, the significance of ΔKh for ring-porous (RPS) and diffuse-porous tree species (DPS) remains unknown. Here, we… read more here.
