Seeing the wood despite the trees: Exploring human disturbance impact on plant diversity, community structure, and standing biomass in fragmented high Andean forests

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 5, Page 2110-2172, March 2021., 2021
High Andean forests play a key role in providing ecosystem services for neighboring urban settlements. Here, we aimed to identify and understand the effects of anthropogenic perturbations on diversity, composition, and structure of plant communities, as well as aboveground biomass in high Andean forest remnants in the hinterland of Bogotá.

Karyological Studies in Alstroemeria and Bomarea (Alstroemeriaceae) [PDF]

Hereditas, 2004
Four representatives of the closely related and controversial genera Alstroemeria and Bomarea are studied: Alstroemeria psittacina, A. isabellana, Bomarea boliviensis and B. edulis. The cytological studies include karyotypes and meiotic observations, mostly made on populations growing in their natural habitats. A. isabellana (n = 8) and B. boliviensis (

Functional leaf anatomy of Bomarea Mirb. (Alstroemeriaceae) [PDF]

Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2006
The leaf anatomy of Bomarea is described and related to ecological conditions. The principal architecture of all species is very similar; adaptations are developed in numerous differences, for instance degree of lignification. All species have inverse leaves, the adaxial side being the stomatous side.

Genome Size Dynamics and Evolution in Monocots

Journal of Botany, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010
Monocot genomic diversity includes striking variation at many levels. This paper compares various genomic characters (e.g., range of chromosome numbers and ploidy levels, occurrence of endopolyploidy, GC content, chromosome packaging and organization, genome size) between monocots and the remaining angiosperms to discern just how distinctive monocot ...

Engineering von Transmembran‐Alkan‐Monooxygenasen zur Verbesserung des Schlüsselschritts in der Biosynthese des Polymervorläufers Tulipalin A

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 25, June 17, 2025.
Ein Biosyntheseweg für den Polymervorläufer Tulipalin A ausgehend von Isoprenylacetat wird hier präsentiert. Die Alkan‐Monooxygenase AlkB katalysiert die chemo‐ und regioselektive terminale Hydroxylierung von Isoprenylacetat und die Aktivität konnte durch rationelles Engineering des Membranenzyms weiter gesteigert werden. Die vollständige Oxidation zur
