Weak global trade‐off between frost and drought resistance in trees Drought and frost stresses play important roles in determining species distributions, especially at range margins. Understanding how stress resistance traits interact to determine vulnerability to c...

🌳We found a weak trade-off: drought resistant trees tend to be less frost-hardy & vice versa 🌡️🔥❄️
🌲💪 Conifers are generally tougher than angiosperms🌺
🧐No "costs" related to fast-slow economics spectrum 🍃🌱

Leaf seasonal osmotic adjustment is not driven by temperature or water deficit The study provides evidence of a seasonal osmotic adjustment in grapevine (Vitis vinifera cv. Pinot noir). The rate of seasonal osmotic adjustment is mostly independent of the ambient temperature con....

A new paper in @theplantjournal.bsky.social showing that osmotic adjustment in grapevine is not a function of temperature or water deficit.

Is it completely an endogenous phenomenon?

That is insane! A true life Inception (you watched it?)

What transpired? A visit with John Woodward to discuss leaf transpiration

Time-travel to the year 1700 to learn about leaf transpiration and about the challenges of time travel. New post on the River to the Sky Substack.
