Tree Physiology
Overview
Tree Physiology is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that focuses on the physiological processes and mechanisms of trees and other woody plants. It covers a wide range of topics including tree growth, development, water and nutrient uptake, photosynthesis, respiration, and responses to environmental factors. The journal publishes original research articles, reviews, and perspectives, providing valuable insights into the complex biology of trees and their role in ecosystems.
