Nonstructural carbon (NSC) provides the carbon and energy for plant growth and survival. In
woody plants, fundamental questions about NSC remain unresolved: Is NSC storage an …

Among all causes of grapevine decline, Grapevine Trunk Diseases (GTDs) are major
concerns for grape growers. is paper reviews knowledge and proposes hypotheses on two …

Nonstructural carbohydrate reserves support tree metabolism and growth when current
photosynthates are insufficient, offering resilience in times of stress. We monitored …

Storage is a fundamental process that allows organisms to meet variable demand for 22
resources during their development and buffer environmental fluctuations in resource 23 …

Carbohydrates play a central role in plant functioning because they are building blocks and
energy carriers for plant metabolic processes. Because plants are sessile organisms and …

Pulse-labelling of trees with stable or radioactive carbon (C) isotopes offers the unique
opportunity to trace the fate of labelled CO2 into the tree and its release to the soil and the …

Tree Physiology Volume 31, 2011 carbon starvation and anisohydric plants would be more
likely to experience hydraulic failure and desiccation (McDowell et al. 2008), but a variety of …

Carbon allocation to growth, storage, reproduction and the effects of stress and disturbances
on these processes remain poorly understood in trees. Non‐structural carbohydrates (NSC) …

Light availability greatly affects plant growth and development. In shaded environments,
plants must respond to reduced light intensity to ensure a regular rate of photosynthesis to …

Introduction Salinity and droughts are severe abiotic stress factors that limit plant growth and
development. However, the differences and similarities of non-structural carbohydrates …
