Hydraulic failure due to xylem embolism has been identified as one of the main mechanisms involved in drought-induced forest decline. Trees vulnerability to hydraulic failure depends on their hydraulic safety margin (HSM). While it has been shown that HSM globally converges between tree species and biomes, there is still limited knowledge regarding how HSM can adjust locally to varying drought conditions within species.

  • Fungi from the genus are known for producing truffles, which have unique flavors, and they thrive in diverse environments and symbiotic relationships with plants.
  • In a study, five native Greek plant species were inoculated with spores from a single truffle, and their root colonization by fungi was monitored over 12 months, showing varying rates of success.
  • The findings indicate that it's possible to cultivate seedlings of local oak species effectively inoculated with native truffles, which can support their growth across different habitats.
