Xylem traits in European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) display a large plasticity in response to canopy release
2017
Key message
The position of trees in the canopy impacts xylem structure and its inter-annual variation. After canopy release, the increase in the hydraulic conductivity of growth rings was driven by an increase in radial growth in large trees, and by both an increase in radial growth and changes in xylem structure in saplings.
