The world's oldest man‐made biological experiment
Biological experiments are often short‐lived due to logistical or resource‐related challenges, and short‐term observations are extrapolated to make long‐term predictions. However, the effects of experimental treatments on biological communities and processes take time to develop.

Molecular characterization of bromeliads from northeast Brazil
Bromeliaceae is an important botany family that includes many species with economic value; demand for members of this family is increasing. However, illegal collection frequently occurs, drastically reducing the species populations; thus, it is necessary to collect and store Bromeliaceae genetic material.

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].

Environmental control of the microfaunal community structure in tropical bromeliads. [PDF]
Ecological communities hosted within phytotelmata (plant compartments filled with water) provide an excellent opportunity to test ecological theory and to advance our understanding of how local and global environmental changes affect ecosystems. However,

Nectar is a highly variable, mostly unpredictable resource in tropical mountains. How do nectarivorous birds such as this male Great Sapphirewing cope? Fine‐scaled tracking of hummingbirds and flowerpiercers shows flexibility in daily movement strategies in the high Andes, possibly in response to fluctuating local conditions such as weather and ...

Assessment of nutrient returns in a tropical dry forest after clear-cut without burning. [PDF]
Tropical dry forests (TDFs) are being deforested at unprecedented rates. The slash/burn/ agriculture/fallow-extensive livestock sequence causes significant nutrient losses and soil degradation.
