Abiotic stresses could have complex and diverse effects on the growth development of forest trees. In this review, we summarized responses morphological, physiological anatomical traits in woody plants to abiotic stresses, including drought, flood, extreme temperature, salinity, heavy metal, microplastics combined especially from xylem perspective. Under most stress, hydraulic conductivity decreases, which is associated with leaf stomatal regulation inhibition aquaporin (AQP) activity....
Abstract Studying the response of physiological and xylem anatomical traits under cadmium stress is helpful to understand plants’ heavy metal stress. Here, seedlings Pinus thunbergii Parl. were treated with 50, 100 150 mg kg−1 Cd2+ for 28 days. Cadmium nonstructural carbohydrate content leaves, stems roots, root flux, distribution pattern in stem phloem, hydraulic traits, cell wall component fractions phytohormonal such as abscisic acid, gibberellic acid 3, molecule -indole-3-acetic jasmonic...
Two years of field experiments and one growth chamber experiment were conducted to determine the role VA mycorrhizae in P Zn absorption as well P-Zn interaction. The pattern development vesicular-arbuscular (VAM) early stages maize (Zea mays L.) plants southern Ontario, Canada was investigated. consisted three fertility treatments, recommended phosphorus (RP), high (HP) HP plus zinc (HPZn). RP soils used fertilizer added both have treatments RP, HP, RPZn HPZn. Benomyl second year reduce...
Drought and salinity are two abiotic stresses that affect plant productivity. We exposed 2-year-old Platycladus orientalis saplings to single combined stress of drought salinity. Subsequently, the responses physiological traits soil properties were investigated. Biochemical such as leaf root phytohormone content significantly increased under most conditions. Single resulted in decreased nonstructural carbohydrate (NSC) stems roots, while salt diverse response NSC content. Xylem water...
Abstract Investigating the responses of plant anatomical traits trees to drought–rewatering cycles helps us understand their climate change; however, such work has not been adequately reported. In this study, Ginkgo biloba L. saplings were subjected moderate, severe, extreme and lethal drought conditions by withholding water according percentage loss hydraulic conductivity (PLC) rewatering on a regular basis. Samples phloem, cambium xylem collected quantify cellular properties including...
Forests are vital ecosystems that increasingly threatened by environmental stress; exploring the possible trade-off between hydraulic safety and efficiency in plant xylem is crucial to understanding their adaptation strategies. However, date, there no consensus whether such trade-offs exist among within species. To better comprehend mechanism of water transport, this review, we summarized previously published work on from inter-species, intra-species, intra-tree perspectives its influencing...
Field experiments were conducted in 1988 and 1989 to determine the most efficient phosphorus (P) placement for P absorption by maize (Zea mays L.) early growth stages. The treatments consisted of four rates applied (0, 25, 50 100 kg ha −1 ) mixed with 3, 6, 12 25% soil volume row. Shoots roots sampled at 3- 4-leaf, 6-leaf, 8- 9-leaf inside outside zone fertilization separately. There was no evidence root proliferation fertilized zones, even rate 3% volume. a significant response shoot dry...
Pinus thunbergii and Euonymus japonicus are two species commonly found in arid semi-arid areas; however, their responses terms of physiological traits soil properties under drought cadmium (Cd) stress not clear. In this study, we carried out single combined treatments consisting Cd on saplings P. E. investigated the both species. For species, stress, was observed xylem phloem, while root Cd2+ flow rate fluctuated at different levels stress. Under as level increased, abscisic acid (ABA)...
Summary The dimensions and distribution pattern of bordered pits are critical to the xylem water transport function trees. However, studies on three-dimensional across growth rings still limited. Here, Micro-Computed Tomography (Micro-CT) was used acquire images two-year-old Platycladus orientalis seedlings. We analyzed tracheid lumen diameter 665 tracheids, pit volume, 11 810 inter-tracheid from three radial profiles. volume ratio about 0.90–0.96%. average 6.8 μm 58.9 3 , more than 80% had...
This study explored the effects of different microbial agents on corn stalk composting to enable development suitable for stalks in cold regions northern China.Four treatment groups were established: CK (straw), L (straw + 1% low-temperature bacteria), M normal-temperature LM 0.5% bacteria and tests repeated 3 times each group.The results show that temperature heap reached 50°C second day treatments sixth M. did not reach during entire cycle.During process, seed germination index,...
