Climate Change Will Resize and Reshape Plant–Hummingbird Networks in the Atlantic Forest
ABSTRACT Aim To assess how climate change could reshape plant–hummingbird interaction networks in the Atlantic Forest by predicting shifts in species co‐occurrence and evaluating changes in network structure. Location Atlantic Forest, South America.

Phosphorylation of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase in plants. Studies in plants with C4 photosynthesis and Crassulacean acid metabolism and in germinating seeds [PDF]
We have previously shown that phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) is phosphorylated in vivo in the cotyledons of darkened cucumber seedlings and that phosphorylation is reversed by light [Walker and Leegood (1995) FEBS Lett. 362, 70–74].

ABSTRACT Aim Several mechanisms contribute to the plant biodiversity of the Neotropics, with the highlands of South America serving as important hotspots of diversity. In particular, the Brazilian highlands exhibit high biodiversity due to complex diversification dynamics and a mixture of contributions from different biomes.

Yes, we CAM! First evidence of CAM photosynthesis in a carnivorous plant
Evidence for weak, facultative CAM is reported for the first time in a carnivorous plant, i.e., in Mexican representatives of Pinguicula (Lentibulariaceae). Abstract Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is a photosynthetic adaptation enabling higher CO2 concentration close to Rubisco and increased water use efficiency.
