Tree-ring anatomy reveals climatic influence on xylem morphogenesis

During the growing season, the cambium of conifer trees produces successive rows of xylem cells, known as tracheids. Current knowledge on this process mainly stems from xylogenesis monitoring spanning a few years. Example of a tree ring split into ten sectors (A) and representation of the anatomical features measured on each single tracheid (B). In (A), the overlay curves show the intra-ring…
