Role of Transpiration in Regulating Leaf Temperature and its Application in Physiological Breeding
Global warming and consequent changes in climate will put intense pressure on crop production, undermining global food security. Adaptation... -
Leaf economics spectrum prevails over nutrient resorption in regulating the temperature sensitivity of litter decomposition in a subtropical forest ecosystem
The LES and nutrient resorption are thought to jointly modulate leaf litter traits, including the litter decomposition, but it is unknown how the two...

Elevational pattern and temperature sensitivity of spring leaf phenology of three co-occurring tree species in a subtropical mountain forest
Key message Spring leaf phenology delayed with increasing elevation, and the onset of bud development showed less response to elevation. Bud...
