Resistance of European tree species to drought stress in mixed versus pure forests: evidence of stress release by inter‐specific facilitationAbstract While previous studies focused on tree growth in pure stands, we reveal that tree resistance and resilience to drought stress can be modified distinctly through species mixing. Our study is based on tree ring measurement on cores from increment boring of 559 trees of Norway spruce (Picea abies [L.] Karst.), European beech (...

Genetic Diversity and the Survival of PopulationsAbstract: In this comprehensive review, a range of factors is considered that may influence the significance of genetic diversity for the survival of a population. Genetic variation is essential for the adaptability of a population in which quantitatively inherited, fitness‐related traits are crucial. Therefore, the relationship between genetic diversity and fitness s...

Emerging concept for the role of photorespiration as an important part of abiotic stress responseAbstract When plants are exposed to stress, generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS ) is often one of the first responses. In order to survive, cells attempt to down‐regulate the production of ROS , while at the same time scavenging ...

Environmental and Evolutionary Preconditionsfor the Origin and Diversification of the C4 PhotosyntheticSyndromeAbstract: C4 photosynthesis is an evolutionary solution to high rates of photorespiration and low kinetic efficiency of Rubisco in CO2 ‐depleted atmospheres of recent geologic time. About 7500 plant species are C4 , in contrast to 30 000 CAM and 250 000 C3 species. All C4...

Effect of Ammonium and Nitrate Nutrition On Some Physiological Processes in Higher Plants ‐ Growth, Photosynthesis, Photorespiration, and Water RelationsAbstract: Ammonium and nitrate as different forms of nitrogen nutrients impact differently on some physiological and biochemical processes in higher plants. Compared to nitrate, ammonium results in small root and small leaf area, which may contribute to a low carbon gain, and an inhibition on growth. On the other hand, due to (photo)energy saving, a higher CO...

Plant metallothioneins – metal chelators with ROS scavenging activity?Abstract Metallothioneins (MTs) are ubiquitous cysteine‐rich proteins present in plants, animals, fungi and cyanobacteria. In plants, MTs are suggested to be involved in metal tolerance or homeostasis, as they are able to bind metal ions through the thiol groups of their cysteine residues. Recent reports show that MTs are also involved in the scavenging of reactive ... ...

Effects of elevated CO2 on grain yield and quality of wheat: results from a 3‐year free‐air CO2 enrichment experimentAbstract Spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. TRISO) was grown for three consecutive seasons in a free‐air carbon dioxide (CO2 ) enrichment (FACE) field experiment in order to examine the effects on crop yield and grain quality. CO2 enrichment promoted aboveground biomass (+11.8%) and grain yield ... ...

Characterization of Cysteine‐Degrading and H2S‐Releasing Enzymes of Higher Plants ‐ From the Field to the Test Tube and BackAbstract: Due to the clean air acts and subsequent reduction of emission of gaseous sulfur compounds sulfur deficiency became one of the major nutrient disorders in Northern Europe. Typical sulfur deficiency symptoms can be diagnosed. Especially plants of the Cruciferae family are more susceptible against pathogen attack. Sulfur fertilization can in part recover or ...

The role of abscisic acid and auxin in the response of poplar to abiotic stressAbstract The plant hormones auxin and abscisic acid may at first sight appear to be a conflicting pair of plant regulators. Abscisic acid content increases during stress and protects plant water status. The content of free auxin in the developing xylem of poplar declines during stress, while auxin conjugates increase. This indicates that specific down‐regulation of ... ...

Temporal variation of competition and facilitation in mixed species forests inC entralE uropeAbstract Facilitation, reduced competition or increased competition can arise in mixed stands and become essential to the performance of these stands when compared to pure stands. Facilitation and over‐yielding are widely held to prevail on poor sites, whereas neutral interactions or competition, leading to under‐yielding of mixedversus pur... ...
