Abstract:
... BACKGROUND: As plants, algae and some sessile invertebrates may grow in nearly monospecific assemblies, their collective biomass increases and if they compete hard enough some die, freeing up space. The concurrent increase in biomass and decrease in density is called self-thinning, and its trajectory over time or maximum values represent a boundary condition. For a single stand developing over tim ...

Abstract:
... Over the past decade, synthetic trees have been engineered to mimic the transpiration cycle of natural plants, but the leaves are prone to dry out beneath a critical relative humidity. Here, we create large-area synthetic leaves whose transpiration process is remarkably stable over a wide range of humidities, even without synthetic stomatal chambers atop the nanopores of the leaf. While the water ...

Abstract:
... We investigated the fate of carbon dioxide (CO₂) absorbed by roots or internally produced by respiration using gas exchange and stable isotopic labeling. CO₂ efflux from detached leaves supplied with bicarbonate/CO₂ solutions was followed over six cycles. CO₂ effluxes were detected when bicarbonate solution at high pH was used, corresponding to 71–85% of the expected efflux. No CO₂ efflux was dete ...

Abstract:
... Nearly all plant families, represented across most major biomes, absorb water directly through their leaves. This phenomenon is commonly referred to as foliar water uptake. Recent studies have suggested that foliar water uptake provides a significant water subsidy that can influence both plant water and carbon balance across multiple spatial and temporal scales. Despite this, our mechanistic under ...

Abstract:
... Plants grow and transpire water during the day and night. Recent work highlights the idea that night-time transpirational water loss is a consequence of allowing respiratory CO2 to escape at sufficiently high rates through stomata. Respiration fuels night-time leaf expansion and requires carbohydrates produced during the day. As carbohydrate availability and growth are under the control of the pla ...

MAIN CONCLUSION: Microcracks in the cuticle of developing apples are aligned with ridges on the inner cuticle surface and are indicative of stress–strain concentrations above the anticlinal cell walls. Microcracks occur in cuticles of most fruits. Growth strains are considered causal. In apples (Malus × domestica), microcracks usually form a mesh pattern similar to that formed by cuticular ridges. ...

Different method families exist depending on how they apply heat and track sapwood temperature (heat pulse, heat dissipation, heat field deformation or heat balance). These methods have been calibrated for many species, but a global assessment of their uncertainty and reliability has not yet been co ...

Sources of water used by plants in rock-dominated environments are far less clear than those in relatively homogeneous soils, largely because plants in rocky environments normally expose to more complex substrate conditions and their potential water sources are hard to locate and sample.

Abstract:
... Stomatal transpiration of leaves is a dominant pathway of plant physiological water loss. The leaf transpiration rate when stomata are fully open is commonly at the same level as the evaporation rate of a wet surface of the same area as that of the leaf area, although the cumulative area of the stomatal pores is typically less than 3% of the leaf area. To elucidate the highly efficient diffusion o ...
