GROWTH DYNAMIC AND FORAGE YIELD OF Trachypogon plumosus UNDER LEVELS OF SOIL FERTILITY CORRECTION AND REGROWTH AGES

open access: yesCiência Animal Brasileira, 2016
bstract We assessed the effects of levels of soil fertility correction (control, liming, fertilization and liming + fertilization) and of regrowth ages (21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63, 70, 77, and 84 days) on growth dynamic and forage yield of Trachypogon ...

Seeing herbaria in a new light: leaf reflectance spectroscopy unlocks trait and classification modeling in plant biodiversity collections

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Reflectance spectroscopy is a rapid method for estimating traits and discriminating species. Spectral libraries from herbarium specimens represent an untapped resource for generating broad phenomic datasets across space, time, and taxa. We conducted a proof‐of‐concept study using trait data and spectra from herbarium specimens up to 179 yr old,

The maize mitogen‐activated protein kinase kinase kinase gene ZmMAPKKK45 is associated with multiple disease resistance

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Southern leaf blight (SLB), caused by the necrotrophic fungus Cochliobolus heterostrophus, is a major foliar disease of maize (Zea mays) world‐wide. A genome‐wide association study was performed to dissect the genetic basis of SLB resistance in maize. Functional validation was performed using mutant and transgenic analyses.

Small understory trees increase growth following sustained drought in the Amazon

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Droughts pose a major threat to the Amazon rainforest, yet the mechanisms enabling trees to maintain growth under prolonged drought remain poorly understood, particularly in the understory layer. We leveraged a 22‐yr Throughfall Exclusion (TFE) in a 1‐ha plot in eastern Amazonia, paired with a Control plot, to test whether small understory ...

Canalized to heat, plastic to cold: adaptive coordination of leaf and seed strategies in populations spanning an elevational gradient

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary In tropical mountains, surviving temperature extremes demands finely tuned strategies. We investigated how populations of the bromeliad Pitcairnia flammea across a 2200 m elevational gradient balance genetic canalization and plasticity, and whether thermal strategies are coordinated between seeds and leaves.
