This means wood density isn‘t just about how much a piece of wood weighs, but how it influences a plant‘s entire strategy for survival and growth. While variations exist between individual species, a surprising trend has emerged: the majority of this variation can be traced back to a plant‘s genus or even family. This strong .phylogenetic signal. indicates that wood density is a deeply ingrained characteristic, shaped by a plant‘s evolutionary history. This newfound understanding allows us to leverage wood density as a. .taxon-based .functional trait.. By considering the typical wood density of a plant group (like a genus or family), we can improve models and predictions related to various ecological and functional aspects in forests and plantations. Over the past couple of decades, scientists have been actively exploring the connections between wood density and a wide range of plant functions. Denser wood is often linked to slower growth rates, delayed reproduction, and increased mechanical strength. It also influences a plant‘s ability to transport water | 出版日期 | Book 2024 | 关键词 | wood density; mortality; mechanical strength; functional trait; growth rate; water transport; hydraulic ca | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-61030-1 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-031-61032-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-031-61030-1 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
