Making a clean break: contrasting leaf abscission dynamics across temperate leaf habits
These findings demonstrate that leaf senescence and abscission are distinct and variably timed processes across temperate tree species. These results have implications for predicting future leaf lifespan as the climate changes, with the characterization of physiological diversity in the regulation of leaf abscission profoundly understudied.
