• Where, why and how? Explaining the low‐temperature range limits of temperate tree species (2016, result): “Some species, for example Sorbus aucuparia, revealed even a significant increase of NSC towards the upper distribution range, which is in line with previous findings in a global comparison of alpine treelines (Hoch & K€orner 2012).”
• The snow and the willows: earlier spring snowmelt reduces performance in the low‐lying alpine shrub Salix herbacea (2016, background): “K€orner 2003a; Hoch & Korner 2012) but have rarely if ever been examined in low alpine shrubs.”
• Paradigm shift in plant growth control. (2015, background): “Non-structural carbohydrates are accumulating as one approaches the treeline worldwide (hence, there is no C shortage; [75]) and detailed xylogenesis studies underpinned the 5 8C threshold for wood formation [76 ].”
• Nonstructural carbon in woody plants. (2014, background): “Across a wide range of growing-season lengths, NSC concentration in all tree organs increases with elevation from closed forest stands toward altitudinal tree lines, when sampling takes into account differences in phenology among elevations (47, 48).”
• Heat freezes niche evolution. (2013, background): “…other physiological estimates of thermal tolerance, such as membrane breakage and electrolyte leakage (Sierra-Almeida & Cavieres 2010), although lower performance limits may be set more by constraints on growth than on photosynthesis, at least for elevation tree lines (e.g. Hoch & K€ orner 2012).”
