Spinifex, fire, and fate

Geographical Research, Volume 63, Issue 4, Page 685-696, November 2025.
Abstract Bushfires occur regularly in inland Australia because of the flammability of spinifex (Triodia species). Spinifex and fire are tied together by infertility: the plant is of limited palatability to consumers and accumulates into fuel. Spinifex regrows with cumulative rainfall, and fires recur every couple of decades.

Environmental factors have a greater influence on photosynthetic capacity in C4 plants than biochemical subtypes or growth forms

New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 3, Page 1205-1224, November 2025.
Summary Our understanding of how photosynthetic capacity varies among C4 species and across growth and measurement conditions remains limited. We collated 1696 CO2 response curves of net CO2 assimilation rate (A/Ci curves) from C4 species grown and measured at various environmental conditions and used these data to estimate the apparent maximum ...

Pedogenesis of a coastal climosequence and a volcanic ash‐influenced elevational transect of western Haleakalā, Maui

Soil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 89, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
Abstract The western slope of Haleakalā, Maui, demonstrates a wide range in soil development (eight mapped soil orders), thus providing a unique opportunity to investigate how climate and volcanic ash deposition influence soil development on basalt.

Leaf expansion and leaf turnover of perennial C4 grasses growing at moderately low temperatures

Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, 2017
Understanding the mechanisms by which some C4 grasses grow more than others at moderately low temperatures (~12-20ºC) is valuable to select materials to lengthen the growing season.
