As temperatures warm and precipitation patterns shift as a result of climate change, interest
in the identification of tree genotypes that will thrive under more arid conditions has grown …

Drought intensity and frequency are increasing under global warming, with soil water
availability now being a major factor limiting tree growth in circumboreal forests. Still, the …

Molecular research which deals with trees and other plants is described and the role of this
research in the understanding of complex physiological and biochemical processes in trees …

Future increases in drought severity and frequency are predicted to have substantial impacts
on plant function and survival. However, there is considerable uncertainty concerning what …

Species differ regarding their drought tolerance and individuals of a given species can
modify their morphology and physiology in response to drought. However, since …

Global warming and associated decreases in summer rainfall may threaten tree vitality and
forest productivity in many regions of the temperate zone in the future. One option for forestry …

Background Microevolution is essential for species persistence especially under anticipated
climate change scenarios. Species distribution projection models suggested that the …

Increasing climatic unpredictability associated with characteristics of some species makes
plant drought‐tolerance an important drought‐adaptation strategy. Using norm‐of‐reaction …

In the course of global climate change, Central Europe is experiencing more frequent and
prolonged periods of drought. The drought years 2018 and 2019 affected European …

With climate change, increasingly intense and frequent drought episodes will be affecting
