Nonstructural carbon in woody plants. (2014, result): “The potential osmotic function of NSC is consistent with results showing that drought led to an increase of NSC concentrations in drought-resistant plants or genotypes but not in droughtintolerant plants (99, 102).”
Carbon dynamics in trees: feast or famine? (2012, background): “The possible sequestration of stored C pools is consistent with evidence that plants often fail to use all carbohydrate reserves following herbivory, shade or drought (Chapin et al. 1990, Millard and Grelet 2010, Sala et al. 2010, and references therein; Piper 2011).”
Understanding the roles of nonstructural carbohydrates in forest trees - from what we can measure to what we want to know. (2016, background): “Most of these have relied on the quantification of temporal variations in NSC concentrations or content (concentration9 tissue biomass) to infer plant C dynamics (e.g. Galiano et al., 2011; Piper, 2011; Hartmann et al., 2013b; Mitchell et al., 2013).”
How tree roots respond to drought (2015, background): “Whereas the concentrations in the roots of N. dombeyi remained unchanged, N. nitida roots showed reduced starch and total soluble sugar (TSS) concentrations under drought conditions (Piper, 2011).”
