Canalized to heat, plastic to cold: adaptive coordination of leaf and seed strategies in populations spanning an elevational gradient. [PDF]
Summary In tropical mountains, surviving temperature extremes demands finely tuned strategies. We investigated how populations of the bromeliad Pitcairnia flammea across a 2200 m elevational gradient balance genetic canalization and plasticity, and whether thermal strategies are coordinated between seeds and leaves.

Food-web structure in relation to environmental gradients and predator-prey ratios in tank-bromeliad ecosystems [PDF]
Little is known of how linkage patterns between species change along environmental gradients. The small, spatially discrete food webs inhabiting tank-bromeliads provide an excellent opportunity to analyse patterns of community diversity and food-web ...

Extreme Droughts Push Heterotrophic Functions Above Baseline Levels in a Neotropical Ecosystem. [PDF]
Using tank bromeliads, we experimentally assessed post‐drought resistance and recovery of ecosystem multifunctionality under realistic drought scenarios. We focused on three key functions in these small yet abundant Neotropical freshwater ecosystems: litter decomposition, microbial respiration, and photosynthetic efficiency.
