Abstract
Water availability impacts the health and productivity of both managed and natural ecosystems, and, in the light of global climate change, it is becoming increasingly important to better understand the physiological and molecular aspects of how plants respond to water stress. Water availability is often a limiting factor for the productivity of crops and the growth and survival of plantation trees. As evidenced in hybrid poplar plantations, fast growth of plants is often associated with high water demand, but this comes at the cost of increased sensitivity to drought (Silim et al., 2009). Numerous recent reports have described forest productivity declines and tree mortality from drought...
