Functional traits and symbiotic associations of geoxyles and trees explain the dominance of detarioid legumes in miombo ecosystems

Amandio L. Gomes et al.

Summary: The study revealed differences in key plant functional traits between trees and geoxyles, reflecting adaptations to environmental conditions and coping strategies to environmental stresses. Fabaceae and ectomycorrhizal plants showed better nutrient status, with the symbiotic association between detarioid legumes and ectomycorrhiza potentially crucial for their dominance in miombo landscapes.

Interannual variability of ecosystem iso/anisohydry is regulated by environmental dryness

Genghong Wu et al.

Summary: This study uses satellite observations and field research to show that different ecosystems exhibit varying behaviors in isohydricity directionality and sensitivity when facing dry conditions. In mesic ecosystems, isohydricity decreases with increased dryness and higher sensitivity to drought, while in xeric ecosystems it increases with dryness but with lower sensitivity to drought.

Patterns of nitrogen and phosphorus stoichiometry among leaf, stem and root of desert plants and responses to climate and soil factors in Xinjiang, China

Yan Luo et al.

Summary: Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) play essential roles in plant growth in desert ecosystems. This study found that soil factors have direct influences on N and P stoichiometry among different organs, and climate factors have an indirect effect on N and P stoichiometry by affecting soil factors. These findings can help understand nutrient stoichiometry patterns and utilization strategy of N and P in response to global climate changes in desert ecosystems.

Hydroscapes: A Useful Metric for Distinguishing Iso-/Anisohydric Behavior in Almond Cultivars

Carolina Alvarez-Maldini et al.

Summary: The hydroscape metric developed by Meinzer and colleagues can effectively discriminate between iso- and anisohydric plant genotypes, providing a new approach to identifying drought-tolerant cultivars such as Prunus dulcis. This method is useful in evaluating plant water-use strategies and photosynthesis rates, and has the potential to further advance research in drought tolerance in agriculture.
