Comparative hydraulic architecture of tropical tree species representing a range of successional stages and wood density

Creator:

McCulloh, Katherine A., Meinzer, Frederick C., Sperry, John S., Lachenbruch, Barbara, Voelker, Steven L., Woodruff, David R., and Domec, Jean-Christophe

Abstract:

Plant hydraulic architecture (PHA) has been linked to water transport sufficiency, photosynthetic rates, growth form and attendant carbon allocation. Despite its influence on traits central to conferring an overall competitive advantage in a given environment, few studies have examined whether key aspects of PHA are indicative of successional stage, especially...

Structure and hydraulic function of xylem in two tree species with contrasting amounts of sapwood, Pseudotsuga menziesii and Pinus ponderosa

Creator:

Domec, Jean-Christophe

Abstract:

Every wood anatomist knows that the wood near the center of a tree (juvenile wood) differs from the wood laid down at some distance from the pith (mature wood), and that the wood produced during the spring (earlywood) differs from the wood produced during the summer (latewood). There is a...
