This study examined how Mediterranean annual plants adjust leaf traits (SLA and LDMC) across rainfall gradients and microclimates, considering both genetic differentiation and plasticity under drought and competition. Contrary to expectations from the Leaf Economics Spectrum, populations from drier macroclimates evolved more acquisitive leaves (higher ...

Reproductive biology of Amasonia obovata Gleason (Laminaceae) [PDF]
Floral mechanisms that ensure seed production via autogamy are more likely to occur in species growing in environments where pollination is scarce.

Flowering Asynchrony and Temporal Mate Restriction in Tropical Peat Swamp Forest Trees
Tropical peat swamp forest trees flower asynchronously, restricting mating opportunities between conspecifics. Using an 18‐year dataset from Central Kalimantan, Indonesia, we show that while the same individual trees tend to flower together through time, there is enough turnover in which trees flower contemporaneously that lifetime mate restriction and

A new species of \u3cem\u3eStreptanthus\u3c/em\u3e (Brassicaceae) from Three Peaks in Lake County, California [PDF]
Streptanlhus vernalis is a newly described species inhabiting serpentine rock outcrops in the Three Peaks area in Lake County, California. Morphological and allozyme data indicate that this taxon is related to the S.

Heteromeric cis‐prenyltransferases (CPT) are indispensable for dolichol synthesis and protein N‐glycosylation in most eukaryotes. The catalytic subunits are strongly conserved throughout evolution, in contrast to the evolutionarily variable accessory subunits. The POC1 protein from Paramecium tetraurelia is the smallest identified CPT‐accessory subunit

Pollen: ovule ratio and its relationship with other reproductive traits in some Passiflora species (Passifloraceae) [PDF]
The pollen/ovule (P/O) ratio has been used as predictor of the reproductive system of angiosperms (lowest P/O values correspond to obligate autogamous species while the highest correlate with obligate xenogamous species) but it does not keep for all the ...

ABSTRACT Gene pyramiding in crop varieties offers a promising strategy to achieve sustainable production and reduce reliance on pesticides. However, stacking resistance genes without understanding their biological functions may result in transient protection.

Orchid pollination is traditionally considered to rely on intact pollinarium transfer by animal vectors. Species lacking a functional viscidium are generally classified as obligately autogamous.

Distribution of genetic diversity in wild European populations of prickly lettuce (Lactuca serriola): implications for plant genetic resources management [PDF]
Genetic variation in Lactuca serriola, the closest wild relative of cultivated lettuce, was studied across Europe from the Czech Republic to the United Kingdom, using three molecular marker systems, simple sequence repeat (SSR, microsatellites), AFLP and
