A step into the shadows: Evolutionary shifts in fruit structure and dispersal strategies in Asian mycoheterotrophic Ericaceae

open access: yesPlants, People, Planet
Societal Impact Statement This study examines how the fruits of non‐photosynthetic forest plants in the Monotropoideae (Ericaceae) have evolved into the diversity observed today.

Monoecy, anemophily, anemochory and regeneration ecology of Hildegardia populifolia (Roxb.) Schott. & Endl. (Malvaceae), an economically important endemic and endangered dry deciduous tree species of southern Eastern Ghats, India

open access: yesJournal of Threatened Taxa, 2014
Hildegardia populifolia est une espèce d'arbre en danger critique d'extinction. Tous les événements phénologiques - bouffées de chaleur, excrétion, floraison, dispersion des fruits - se produisent les uns après les autres pendant la saison sèche. Elle est morphologiquement andromonoïque mais fonctionnellement monoïque. Elle produit un rapport de fleurs

Are plant species able to keep pace with the rapidly changing climate? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Future climate change is predicted to advance faster than the postglacial warming. Migration may therefore become a key driver for future development of biodiversity and ecosystem functioning.

Geographic patterns of tree dispersal modes in Amazonia and their ecological correlates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Aim: To investigate the geographic patterns and ecological correlates in the geographic distribution of the most common tree dispersal modes in Amazonia (endozoochory, synzoochory, anemochory and hydrochory).

Variation in plant-animal interactions along an elevational gradient of moist forest in a semiarid area of Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesActa Botânica Brasílica, 2016
Pollination and dispersal are critical ecological processes that directly affect the reproductive success of plants and are important for understanding the structure of plant communities.

Analysis of Herbaceous Plant Succession and Dispersal Mechanisms in Deglaciated Terrain on Mt. Yulong, China [PDF]

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2014
Ecological succession itself could be a theoretical reference for ecosystem restoration and reconstruction. Glacier forelands are ideal places for investigating plant succession because there are representative ecological succession records at long ...

Regeneration Strategies in Seed Plants: A Continuum Shaping Survival. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Seed plants dominate terrestrial ecosystems in part because regeneration is not a single event, but a coordinated sequence of traits acting across time and space. Here, we synthesize regeneration strategies in seed plants as a continuous, integrated framework spanning pre‐germination regulation, germination timing, seedling emergence, soil seed banking,

Community Assembly Mechanism of Woody Plants at Different Successional Stages in Karst Areas Based on Functional Traits and Phylogeny. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
This study reveals a shift in woody plant community assembly from competitive exclusion in early succession to habitat filtering in later stages within karst areas. Environmental distance (80.54%) contributed significantly more than geographical distance (9.95%), providing strong quantitative evidence that niche processes, particularly habitat ...

Directional seed and pollen dispersal and their separate effects on anisotropy of fine‐scale spatial genetic structure among seedlings in a dioecious, wind‐pollinated, and wind‐dispersed tree species, Cercidiphyllum japonicum

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Prevailing directions of seed and pollen dispersal may induce anisotropy of the fine‐scale spatial genetic structure (FSGS), particularly in wind‐dispersed and wind‐pollinated species.
