This project investigates tree drought resistance by studying hydraulic capacitance in xylem elements. It aims to identify physiological traits and genetic factors that enable trees to withstand severe water scarcity, contributing to forest resilience against climate change.
Global change is expected to amplify the frequency and the severity of heatwaves and drought events especially in Western Europe.
These droughts jeopardize tree health and integrity of European temperate forests and tied ecosystems.
There is a need to identify the processes that may allow trees to overcome severe water scarcities.
Tolerance to xylem embolism is an intrinsic and operational trait related to tree drought resistance.
Moreover, ecophysiological studies have pointed to the existence…
