How many bromeliads are there?

Summary - In many taxa the expected number of species is still uncertain, hampering conservation, especially in the diverse tropical regions of Earth. Here we use the plant family Bromeliaceae as a model to explore the history and future of species discovery from the ...

Morphophysiological Plasticity in Epiphytic Bromeliads Across a Precipitation Gradient in the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico

, 2018
Plasticity may be a key factor to determine plant survival under a changing environment as a result of climate change or land use modification. Plasticity in physiological and morphological traits was evaluated in seven epiphytic Tillandsia species ...
