platycladus/carbohydrate

Drought-induced tree mortality has been observed worldwide. Nevertheless, the physiological mechanisms underlying this phenomenon are still being debated. Potted Robinia pseudoacacia and Platycladus orientalis saplings were subjected to drought and their hydraulic failure and carbon starvation

Ancient trees have an important value in humanities and history, and also have an important scientific value in the investigation of the decline and senescence mechanisms. Thus, we conducted an environmental stress study using ancient trees. To evaluate age-dependent changes in physiology and the
