Potential contribution of floral thermogenesis to cold adaptation, distribution pattern, and population structure of thermogenic and non/slightly thermogenic Symplocarpus species. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2023 Floral thermogenesis is an interesting and important field in evolutionary biology and plant ecology. This is the first study to compare thermogenic and non‐thermogenic plants and explain floral thermogenesis by evolutionary ecology through ecological niche modeling and phylogeographic analysis of chloroplast and genome‐wide single nucleotide ...
