During the initial post\u2010submergence exposure phase, we comparatively analysed stem xylem micro\u2010anatomy, percentage loss of conductivity (PLC) and NSC allocation across the xylem and phloem in branches collected from the flooded water\u2010level fluctuation zone and the adjacent unflooded upland zone.\n                        <\/jats:p>\n                      <\/jats:list-item>\n                      <jats:list-item>\n                        <jats:p>\n                          <jats:italic>T. ascendens<\/jats:italic>\n                          exhibited reduced tracheid diameter and increased cell wall reinforcement, yet PLC remained elevated. This hydraulic impairment was associated with phloem starch retention, suggesting a possible tissue\u2010level carbon allocation constraint; this association does not indicate that hydraulic impairment caused carbon retention.
