Tree plumbing is hard. Xylem “pipes” must move water & not collapse. New study in #PlantCell&Environment (shorturl.at/CPF9s) led by #MichaletzLab PhD candidate @milossimovic.bsky.social shows how #mechanics (not just #hydraulics) shape xylem traits from leaves to roots, across 5 spp & 600k conduits.

PhotoGEA: An R Package for Closer Fitting of Photosynthetic Gas Exchange Data With Non‐Gaussian Confidence Interval Estimation
Fitting mechanistic models to gas exchange measurements is a key technique in plant physiology for understanding limitations to photosynthesis. PhotoGEA is a new R package for fitting C3 and C4 CO2 r...
