Decoding plant x environment interactions through spatial gradients in leaf physiology and metabolism
Succulent leaves are well known to combine photosynthesis, carbon storage and hydraulic buffering. However, their metabolic responses to heat and drought may differ along the same leaf axis. We investigated spatial and temporal changes in leaf tissue water content, photosynthetic performance and central carbon metabolism in the CAM plant Sansevieria cylindrica across three experimental phases:…
