Sprouting is an efficient regeneration means of woody plants to regain their biomass loss after disturbances. This paper reviewed the biological characteristics of sprouting, and its consequences on woody plants individual life history, dynamics of population and community, and biogeography. Many achievements have been obtained on the researches of sprouting strategy and its relationships with disturbances, but less is known about the ecological significances of sprouting, and especially, its effects on the structure and dynamics of woody plants population and community. As in China, both the basic and the applied research of sprouting ecology and vegetation restoration should be strengthened.

Polyphenols, as one of the primary compounds produced by plant secondary metabolism, have garnered considerable attention because of their non-toxic, environmentally friendly, and biodegradable properties, as well as their notable medicinal value. This study presents a metabolomic analysis of polyphenols from 11 woody plants, including , , and , investigating a total of 40 polyphenolic metabolites. A differential metabolite dynamics map highlighted the five most differentiated substances among the 11 plants, including vitexin, dihydromyricetin, genistin, resveratrol, and isorhamnetin.

Trade-offs between food acquisition and predator avoidance shape the landscape-scale movements of herbivores. These movements create landscape features, such as game trails, which are paths that animals use repeatedly to traverse the landscape. As such, these trails integrate behavioral trade-offs over space and time.

The prevalence of coniferous trees in the forest landscapes of northeastern Siberia is conditioned by their high frost resistance. The Kajander larch ( Mayr), which can survive under natural conditions (down to -60 °C) in the cryolithozone of Yakutia, is the dominant forest-forming species. We hypothesise that our study using HPTLC-UV/Vis/FLD, TLC-GC/FID, and GC-MS methods of seasonal features of the lipid profile of Kajander larch tissues will bring us closer to understanding the mechanisms of participation of lipid components in the adaptation of this valuable tree species to the cold climate of the cryolithozone.

Light serves as the unique driving force of photosynthesis in plants, yet its intensity varies over time and space, leading to corresponding changes in the photosynthetic rate. Here, the photosynthetic induction response under constant and fluctuating light was examined in naturally occurring saplings of four sun-demanding woody species, . L.

() genes play a crucial role in the response to abiotic stress and are important target genes for research on plant stress tolerance mechanisms. Bunge is a promising candidate tree species for investigating the tolerance mechanism of woody plants against abiotic stress. In our previous study, was identified as being associated with seed drought tolerance.
