    Ecophysiological assessment of drought vulnerability of the African tropical tree species Maesopsis eminii Engl 

    Epila, Jackie (Ghent University, 2016)
    Africa is endowed with the second largest block of nature-engineered machinery to sequester carbon: forests. Sadly, the functional traits and responses of this machinery are poorly understood, under non-drought, current ...

    Capacitive water release and internal leaf water relocation delay drought-induced cavitation in African Maesopsis eminii 

    Epila, Jackie; De Baerdemaeker, Niels J.F.; Vergeynst, Lidewei L.; Maes, Wouter H.; Beeckman, Hans; Steppe, Kathy (Tree physiology, 2017)
    The impact of drought on the hydraulic functioning of important African tree species, like Maesopsis eminii Engl., is poorly understood. To map the hydraulic response to drought-induced cavitation, sole reliance on the ...
