Height From the Ground and Phytotelm pH Affect Prokaryotic Diversity in Epiphytic Bromeliads. [PDF]

Environ Microbiol Rep
The prokaryotic community composition within epiphytic bromeliad phytotelmata is influenced by habitat and plant characteristics, such as pH, volume and the height at which the plant is found. In addition, various features correlate with different functional groups of prokaryotes within the bromeliad phytotelm.

How Epiphytic Are Epiphytes? Field Evidence for Flexible Substrate Use in Tropical Cloud Forest Plants. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
In the field, 63% of the species grew exclusively epiphytically, while 37% also grew terrestrially. Literature‐derived epiphytic values consistently overestimated substrate fidelity relative to field observations, particularly single‐source classifications, with mean absolute differences of up to 32%.

Biosilicification in monocots: Comparative analysis highlights contrasting patterns of deposition. [PDF]

Am J Bot
Abstract Premise New insights into biomineral uptake and sequestration are important for understanding how plants grow. Some plants accumulate silica accretions in precise locations in particular cells. Among monocots, controlled biosilicification occurs in several different forms and is restricted to commelinids and orchids. Methods We utilized energy‐
