Defence traits vary across leaf ages in the thistles (Cardueae)
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plants produce a variety of structural and chemical defences to deter herbivores, which can covary across every scale of biological organization. Along these lines, it has been suggested that young leaves differ from old leaves in their defence strategies, but studies ...

Eight wild plant species were investigated as co‐substrates for pellet combustion. A long‐term field trial examined dry matter yield and biochemical composition, influencing combustion properties. Results show suitable combustion properties, comparable to Sida, with higher ash melting temperatures than Miscanthus, due to elevated calcium and magnesium.
