Acclimation of mechanical and hydraulic functions in trees: impact of the thigmomorphogenetic process
The secondary xylem (wood) of trees mediates several functions including water transport and storage, mechanical support and storage of photosynthates. The optimal structures for each of these functions will most likely differ. The complex structure and function of xylem could lead to trade-offs bet...
