The Role of Plant Evolutionary History in Shaping the Variation in Specific Leaf Area Across China. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
In this study, we analyzed the influences of climatic conditions and soil properties on the specific leaf area (SLA), calculated the phylogenetic signals of SLA, and quantified the relative contributions of evolutionary history to the spatial variation in SLA. We underscored the importance of evolutionary history in shaping the spatial variation of SLA

Fruit respiration: putting alternative pathways into perspective

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 1, Page 54-73, April 2026.
Summary Over the past century, research has significantly advanced our understanding of fruit respiration, from (eco)physiological processes to molecular mechanisms. This review focuses on the functional relevance and regulatory roles of mitochondrial alternative respiratory pathways (ARPs) during fruit growth and ripening.

Gradual pollen release in a buzz‐pollinated plant: Investigating pollen presentation theory under bee visitation

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 476-485, February 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The rate at which flowers dispense pollen across successive pollinator visits is a key functional trait influencing male reproductive success. Pollen presentation theory (PPT) predicts that when pollinators are abundant and actively groom their bodies to collect pollen,
