The availability of water and nutrients are two main factors limiting tree growth and forest productivity. Despite the strong legacy of research on forest nutrition, the role of nutrients in modulating tree drought responses remains largely unknown. This thesis aimed to evaluate the role of nutrient availability on key traits related to water and carbon relations such as growth and its determinants, water-use efficiency (WUE), vulnerability to cavitation, or non-structural carbohydrate (NSC) contents, in poplars under contrasting drought intensities. Research experiments relied on two complementary experimental designs, one in a greenhouse and the other in an outdoor common garden, and considered a maximum of four genotypes primarily select...
