Current focuses in woody plant water relations and drought resistance (original) (raw)

1989, Annales des Sciences Forestières

AI-generated Abstract

The paper discusses the physiological responses of woody plants, particularly forest trees, to drought stress, emphasizing the importance of water movement, stomatal regulation, and allometric relationships. It notes an increase in research on drought resistance, highlighting the significance of understanding root-to-shoot communication and hydraulic architecture as critical areas of study. The integration of these aspects into future research is seen as pivotal for advancing insights into plant function under stress.
