More than symbioses : orchid ecology ; with examples from the Sydney Region [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The Orchidaceae are one of the largest and most diverse families of flowering plants. Orchids grow as terrestrial, lithophytic, epiphytic or climbing herbs but most orchids native to the Sydney Region can be placed in one of two categories.

Multiple hybrid zones involving four Cardamine species and their triploid progeny: watching allopolyploid speciation in action?

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 5, Page 2616-2635, December 2025.
Summary Hybrid zones provide excellent opportunities to study evolutionary processes linked to interspecific gene flow, including introgression, genetic erosion, polyploid establishment, and speciation. The genus Cardamine (Brassicaceae) serves as an excellent model for polyploid evolution, including one of the few well‐documented neo‐allopolyploid ...

Chemodiversity of Essential Oils From Eugenia uniflora L. Collected in Different Phytophysiognomies of the Coastal Region of Rio de Janeiro

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 22, Issue 11, November 2025.
Essential oils from Eugenia uniflora collected in different coastal phytophysiognomies of Rio de Janeiro showed notable chemodiversity. GC‐MS and GC‐FID analyses revealed nine chemotypes, mainly rich in curzerene and selina‐1,3,7(11)‐trien‐8‐one. ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the yield, color, and chemical composition of Eugenia uniflora ...

Variability of the data indicating the fertility of different plum varieties

open access: yesInternational Journal of Horticultural Science, 2003
Self-fertility and fertility at conditions of open pollination in plum varieties is strictly determined by genetic factors. However, rates of fruit set are highly variable according to growing sites as well as to seasons, which may result from a couple ...

Effects of Ploidy on Relationship Between Outbreeding Response and Fitness in a Plant Selfing Species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 11, November 2025.
Outbreeding response is both ploidy‐dependent and functionally tied to fitness, highlighting its potential role in promoting outcrossing and driving mating system evolution in inbred plant populations. ABSTRACT Outbreeding response, the phenotypic differences observed between selfed parental lines and their outcrossed offspring, can influence the ...

Quantifying phenotypic plasticity: A call for consistency

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 11, Page 2974-2984, November 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The interest of evolutionary, functional and applied ecologists in the study of phenotypic plasticity has grown considerably in recent decades. From being considered irrelevant in the mid‐20th century, phenotypic plasticity is now considered ubiquitous and essential for

Genomic Signatures of North American Soybean Improvement Inform Diversity Enrichment Strategies and Clarify the Impact of Hybridization

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016
Crop improvement represents a long-running experiment in artificial selection on a complex trait, namely yield. How such selection relates to natural populations is unclear, but the analysis of domesticated populations could offer insights into the ...
