Temperate and boreal forest tree phenology: from organ-scale processes to terrestrial ecosystem models
Key message We demonstrate that, beyond leaf phenology, the phenological cycles of wood
and fine roots present clear responses to environmental drivers in temperate and boreal …

Overexpression of Rubisco subunits with RAF1 increases Rubisco content in maize
Rubisco catalyses a rate-limiting step in photosynthesis and has long been a target for
improvement due to its slow turnover rate. An alternative to modifying catalytic properties of …

Phloem transport and drought
S Sevanto - Journal of experimental botany, 2014 - academic.oup.com
Drought challenges plant water uptake and the vascular system. In the xylem it causes
embolism that impairs water transport from the soil to the leaves and, if uncontrolled, may …
