Soil, competition, and niche shifts shape the floral mosaic of an annual plant diversity hotspot

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Plant species with affinity for harsh substrates often have well‐defined edaphic (soil) niches and are ideal for exploring questions of community assembly. Vertic clay soils are chemically and physically challenging to plant establishment and productivity, and annual plant communities associated with these soils of the San Joaquin ...

Characterizing the causes and consequences of calcium oxalate crystal presence in Vitis riparia

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Calcium oxalate biomineralization in plants is phylogenetically widespread and morphologically diverse, but the function of these inorganic crystals is an area of active debate. The variety of environmental conditions that produce the crystals, as well as the inconsistent evidence that they provide antiherbivore defense across plant ...
