Triple-Target Optimization: Heat as the Third Target in Plant Function
As the climate warms, understanding how plants respond to warming and particularly extreme temperature is important for predicting the future of ecosystems and the global carbon cycle. Most land surface…Read More >
Coordinated leaf trait responses to elevated CO₂: experimental evidence from crop species
In order to thrive in a changing climate, plants must adapt their physiology. These adjustments are not just about individual traits changing in isolation, plants must balance multiple processes at…Read More >
