“…Assuming that the predawn Ψ l represents the water potential of the soil from where the roots took water [ 70 ], A. tridentata seedlings showed a behavior close to anisohydric. Such anisohydric behavior is consistent with results recently reported for adult plants of the same subspecies; Sharma et al [ 71 ] showed that A. tridentata ssp. wyomingensis was more anisohydric than A. tridentata ssp.…”

“…The sagebrush steppe ecosystem covers approximately 43 million ha in the arid and semiarid western United States [1]. It provides essential ecosystem services, including wildlife habitat, forage provisioning for wildlife and livestock [2][3][4], water provisioning [5,6], carbon sequestration [7,8], and a favorable environment for a diverse set of herbaceous plant species [9]. Sagebrush plants are known for their ability to survive in water-limited conditions by physiological adaptation [10].…”

“…Different sagebrush subspecies can exhibit substantial differences in water uptake. A study by Sharma et al [5] showed that Artemisia tridentata subsp. vaseyana transpired nearly four times more water than Artemisia tridentata subsp.…”

“…Big sagebrush is an ideal system to study thermal dynamics and adaptive capacity, with subspecies and populations adapted to different temperature and moisture regimes across the western United States (Miller et al., 2011). Big sagebrush subspecies and cytotypes differ considerably in their eco‐physiological drought tolerance levels (Germino et al., 2019; Kolb & Sperry, 1999), minimum temperatures (Brabec et al., 2017; Lazarus et al., 2019), growth and fecundity (Richardson et al., 2021; Zaiats et al., 2021), density and size of stomata and trichomes (Downs & Black, 1999), and drought response strategies (Sharma et al., 2020). Associated with genetic and physiological differences, sagebrush subspecies are distinct in stature, leaf, and crown physical characteristics (Barker & McKell, 1986).…”

“…Because radiative heat from the soil during the day is highest and convective mixing is lowest closer to the ground, we expected that leaves near the tops of crowns would be cooler than leaves near the bottoms of crowns (Warner, 2004). Additionally, because big sagebrush subspecies have distinct water and stomatal regulation strategies (e.g., Sharma et al., 2020) that during drought may directly affect leaf temperature via evaporative cooling and latent heat loss, we expected that sagebrush types with less stomatal regulation would stay cooler under warmer conditions later in the season. Together, our predictions aim to quantify genetic contributions to variation in plant and leaf temperature and identify how crown structure, solar radiation, subspecies and cytotype relate to dynamics of plant temperature variation.…”
