Wood density and vessel traits of woody species in Colombian seasonal dry lands as an adaptation to, and resilience mechanism for, livestock systems

In Colombia, as well as in South America, dry seasonal tropics have drought periods that can last for six months with less than 10% of mean annual rainfall (900-1150 mm). For livestock systems, this situation generates constraints in the quantity and quality of forage affecting productivity, protab...
