Ecosystems are dynamic systems with complex responses to environmental variation. In
response to pervasive stressors of changing climate and disturbance regimes, many …

Drought stress is a major global issue limiting agricultural productivity. Plants respond to
drought stress through a series of physiological, cellular, and molecular changes for …

Abstract Background and Aims Extreme water stress episodes induce tree mortality, but the
physiological mechanisms causing tree death are still poorly understood. This study tests …

Climate extremes have resulted in substantial vegetation changes in the marine-terrestrial
transitional zone. As a climatically-sensitive region, coastal China is currently experiencing …

This review compiles the available knowledge on the triple impact of hostpathogens-
environment in the progress of the esca disease complex of grapevine. The perennial crop …

Drought contributed to extensive dieback of southern California chaparral, and normalized
difference vegetation index before drought and near the end of the drought was used to …

As a relatively successful agroforestry system, whether the addition of more intercropped
species in the rubber–tea agroforestry system extends the benefits is still unknown but worth …

The control of plant transpiration by stomata under water stress and recovery conditions is of
paramount importance for plant performance and survival. Although both chemical and …

The increased water shortage and frequent drought in agricultural ecosystems have caused
tremendous problems worldwide, owning to the resulted yield losses for many crops. It is …

Single bubble dynamics are of fundamental importance for understanding the underlying
mechanisms in liquid–vapor transition phenomenon known as cavitation. In the past years …
