Effect of Drought on Herbivore-Induced Plant Gene Expression: Population Comparison for Range Limit Inferences

open access: yesPlants, 2016
Low elevation “trailing edge” range margin populations typically face increases in both abiotic and biotic stressors that may contribute to range limit development.

Boechera sierraensis: a newly discovered apomictic species from the Sierra Nevada with exceptional stress tolerance

open access: yesPlant Systematics and Evolution
This study introduces a new species, Boechera sierraensis, recently discovered in the Sierra Nevada of California. Previous research has shown that this taxon possesses exceptional tolerance to environmental stressors, including heat, drought, and high ...

Transcriptomic analysis of the heat-stress response in Boechera depauperata and Arabidopsis reveals a distinct and unusual heat-stress response in Boechera

open access: yesBotany, 2020
Global surface temperatures are expected to rise throughout the 21st century, and negatively impact plant growth and reproduction. Thus, it is imperative that we deepen our understanding of plant thermotolerance.

Детекция гемизиготного геномного фрагмента у форм Boechera holboellii (семейство Brassicaceae) с бесполосеменным размножением

open access: yesФактори експериментальної еволюції організмів, 2014
Aims. Apomixis is the clonal reproduction of floral plants by seeds without both meiosis and fertilization. Apomixis has great biotechnological benefits in excess of the gain from the “green revolution” Norman Borlaug.

Testing a General Theory for Optimal Flowering Time in Deciduous Perennial Plants as a Function of Growing Season Length

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 2, February 2026.
Climate change affects both the start and duration of growing seasons, creating complex effects on optimal flowering timing that go beyond simple responses to earlier springs. Using optimal energy allocation theory, we found a nonlinear relationship between growing season length and optimal flowering time which was supported by two experiments with ...

Temperature and the evolution of flower color: A review

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Flower colors brighten our natural world. How and why have they evolved? How might ongoing global warming alter their evolutionary trajectories? In this review, I examine the influence of ambient temperature on the evolution of flower color.

Differential responses of bacteria and fungi in the rhizoplane and endosphere of aerial roots of Cissus verticillata

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract All plant organs have the potential to harbor microbial communities and each organ may form unique niches for specialized microbial communities. There have been very few detailed investigations of microbiomes within a single plant organ along different developmental stages.

Differential activity of F-box genes and E3 ligases distinguishes sexual versus apomictic germline specification in Boechera

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2019
A comprehensive tissue type-specific transcriptional study identifies 45 genes consistently differentially expressed during Boechera sexual as compared with apomictic germline specification, suggesting their relevance for apomixis.

Determination of the Developmental Origin of Seeds Containing Endosperm Using Flow Cytometric Analysis

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2015
Seeds derived from a diploid, sexual plant typically contain a 2n embryo (n+n) and 3n endosperm, a ratio characteristic for most flowering plants. However, this ratio is altered in apomictic species, which reproduce asexually through seeds (Koltunow and ...
