AI Article Synopsis

  • * This review examines how NSC pools in trees change seasonally and spatially, focusing on how environmental factors affect NSC allocation.
  • * The text also discusses how trees may adapt their NSC pools in response to climate change and suggests areas for future research on NSCs in changing climates.

Article Abstract

Non-structural carbohydrates (NSCs) are an important energy source for the metabolism of plants. The size of the NSC pool is likely to mirror the overall carbon supply status and its dynamics strongly influences physiological processes in plants. In order to predict the response and adaptation of trees to climate change, this review summarized the current understanding of NSC pool in trees, and mainly focused on its seasonal and spatial variation for analyzing the relationships between environmental factors and NSC allocation. Moreover, the response and adaptation strategies of NSC pool in trees to climate change were also discussed. Finally, some suggestions were proposed for the potential study orientation of NSC pool in trees in future climate conditions.
