Plants exposed to a variety of abiotic and biotic stressors including environmental pollution
and global warming pose significant threats to biodiversity and ecosystem services. Despite …

Among abiotic stresses, heat stress is described as one of the major limiting factors of crop
growth worldwide, as high temperatures elicit a series of physiological, molecular, and …

The increasing evaporative demand due to climate change will significantly affect the
balance of carbon assimilation and water losses of plants worldwide. The development of …

Improvement of photosynthesis in non-foliar green tissues is beneficial for enhancing crop
yield. Recently, we have demonstrated that panicle stomatal conductance is a major limiting …

Introduction It is of great significance to understand the characteristics and influencing
factors of vegetation coverage variation in the warm temperate zone. As a typical region of …

Abstract Background Carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) stoichiometry is a key
indicator of nutrient utilization in plants, and C/N/P ratios are related to the life histories and …

Although drought and high temperature are two main factors affecting crop productivity and
forest vegetation dynamics in many areas worldwide, little work has been done to describe …

Introduction Parameterizing the process of trees from the comfort zone to mortality during
progressive drought is important for, but is not well represented in, vegetation models, given …

The rising concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO 2) and ozone (O 3) in the atmosphere hold
significant implications for various ecosystem services, particularly agroecosystem …

Elevational variation in plant growing environment drives diversification of photosynthetic
capacity, however, the mechanism behind this reaction is poorly understood. We measured …
