To predict the effects of temperature changes on plant growth and performance, it is crucial
to understand the impact of thermal history on leaf morphology, anatomy and physiology …

Gas exchange, fluorescence, western blot and chemical composition analyses were
combined to assess if three functional groups (forbs, grasses and evergreen trees/shrubs) …

Production of heat‐shock proteins (Hsps) is a key adaptation to acute heat stress and will be
important in determining plant responses to climate change. Further, intraspecifc variation in …

Eucryphia cordifolia Cav. is a long-lived evergreen tree species, commonly found as a
canopy emergent tree in the Chilean temperate rain forest. This species displays successive …

Photosynthetic responses to increasing temperatures play important roles in regulating heat
tolerance. The objectives of this study were to determine photosynthetic acclimation to …

Numerous cold-induced changes in physiology limit the capacity of northern conifers to
photosynthesize during winter. Studies of red spruce (Picea rubens Sarg.) have shown that …

Climate warming is expected to increase the seasonal duration of photosynthetic carbon
fixation and tree growth in high‐latitude forests. However, photoperiod, a crucial cue for …

Drought and freezing are both known to limit desert plant distributions, but the interaction of
these stressors is poorly understood. Drought may increase freezing tolerance in leaves …

Understanding the capacity of temperate trees to acclimate to limited soil water has become
essential in the face of increasing drought risk due to climate change. We documented …

Cold acclimation improves freezing tolerance in plants. In higher plants, many advances
have been made toward identifying the signaling and regulatory pathways that direct the low …
