Life history stability under climate change: a wildflower at the northern edge of its range
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Stabilities of life history traits for a widespread native perennial wildflower, Rudbeckia laciniata L., are described for five populations near the northern edge of its range in North America. Theory proposes that such populations experience variable levels of stress as suitable abiotic conditions shift north or south from year to year, which ...

Cryptic Bracts Exposed Insights into the Regulation of Leaf Expansion [PDF]
, 2004 Arabidopsis is unusual in producing flowers that are not subtended by specialized leaves, called floral bracts. Writing in Development, Dinneny et al. and Ohno et al. show that gain-of-function mutations of the JAGGED transcription factor produce bracts,
