Climate adaptation and functional constraints drive pollen evolution in Apiales
Summary Pollen grains exhibit remarkable morphological diversity, shaped by selective pressures from environmental factors and mechanical constraints. Here, we investigate macroevolutionary patterns of pollen morphology in Apiales, an order of angiosperms with significant ecological and geographical diversity, to disentangle the roles of climate and ...

Notes on the germination of the endangered species Sclerolaena napiformis (Chenopodiaceae) [PDF]
Sclerolaena napiformis is found on fertile plains in northern Victoria and southern New South Wales and is endangered Australia-wide. Introductory work on its germination shows that seeds cannot germinate until the woody fruit has broken down.

Can thin-lipped mullet directly exploit the primary and detritic production of European macrotidal salt marshes? [PDF]
Juveniles and adults (>100 mm) of Liza ramada colonize macrotidal salt marsh creeks of Mont Saint-Michel bay (France)between March and November, during spring tide floods (43% of the tides) and return to coastal waters during the ebb.

Using the most complete summary of 20 years of riparian plant water use studies in North American drylands to date, we examine broad patterns of plant water use by vegetation type and across climate gradients. Marshes, cottonwood‐willow stands and tamarisk use larger amounts of water than other communities, and all communities have higher water use in ...

A graduated nativeness definition for overcoming dilemmas and difficulties of vascular plant species
Nativeness is a concept central to biodiversity conservation and invasion biology, but there are several problems related to a classic binary nativeness definition. Dilemmas arise from the dynamic nature of species' distribution ranges on longer time scales, and difficulties arise in the application to smaller regions defined by arbitrary borders, and ...

Investigating the effect of hydropriming on germination components of Atriplex plant (Atriplex canescens) under salinity stress [PDF]
Salinity stands as one of the major abiotic stresses impacting seed germination and plant establishment in arid and semiarid regions. To explore the effects of hydropriming on Atriplex seed germination components under salinity stress, an experiment was ...

Degradabilidade ruminal da palma forrageira e do atriplex em bovinos. [PDF]
Este trabalho avaliou a influência de dietas contendo substituições parciais da palma forrageira pela atriplex sobre a degradabilidade ruminal da matéria seca e fibra em detergente neutro do feno de atriplex e da palma forrageira em ...

This study evaluated whether artificial shelters can mimic the microclimatic benefits of foundation shrubs to support vertebrate biodiversity in dryland ecosystems facing desertification. Surveys conducted at Californian desert sites (2022–2023) showed that artificial shelters increased vertebrate abundance and richness, performing comparably to native

Late Cenozoic silty and sandy sediments in the semi‐arid Mackenzie basin have been eroded and redeposited almost entirely from nearby Mesozoic greywacke basement. Fine (commonly micron scale) phyllosilicate flakes, including clays, are randomly distributed and randomly oriented, and the sediments are porous.
