This study investigates the variation in flower petal size and the petal‐to‐plant height ratio among 10,228 animal ‐ pollinated angiosperm species across different climatic and altitudinal gradients in China. Results indicate that larger petal sizes are associated with higher temperatures and precipitation, while altitudinal variations significantly ...

Geographic and Biological Drivers Shape Anthropogenic Extinctions in the Macaronesian Vascular Flora
The anthropogenic extinction patterns and processes of the vascular flora in the model island region of Macaronesia have been investigated in the present study. We compiled all known extinction records, both at global and local scales, across the five archipelagos comprising the region (Azores, Madeira, Salvajes, Canary Islands, and Cabo Verde).

Cleistogamous flowering in barley arises from the suppression of microRNA-guided HvAP2 mRNA cleavage [PDF]
The cleistogamous flower sheds its pollen before opening, forcing plants with this habit to be almost entirely autogamous. Cleistogamy also provides a means of escape from cereal head blight infection and minimizes pollen-mediated gene flow. The lodicule

Amphicarpic development in Cardamine chenopodiifolia
Summary Amphicarpy is an unusual trait where two fruit types develop on the same plant: one above and the other belowground. This trait is not found in conventional model species. Therefore, its development and molecular genetics remain under‐studied. Here, we establish the allooctoploid Cardamine chenopodiifolia as an emerging experimental system to ...

Fire frequency effects on cleistogamy expression and progeny performance in cologania broussonetii [PDF]
Increased fire frequency usually erodes microenvironmental conditions causing a drastic limitation of edaphic resources. Thus, the production of permanently closed-small flowers (cleistogamous, CL) should increase in sites with high fire frequency as it ...

A new plant genus and species from south‐eastern Spain: Castrila latens (Rubieae, Rubiaceae)
Abstract A new genus and species, Castrila latens, native to the south‐eastern Iberian Peninsula, is described here for the first time and compared with its closest relatives. The plant is characterized by being annual, glabrous, having reduplicate leaves in whorls of (5)6–7, inflorescences capitate and involucrate, corolla shortly hypocrateriform and ...

Abstract There is a paucity of information on the relationship between anthers and Type II expression of Fusarium Head Blight resistance (measured by point inoculation of a spikelet and observing disease spread over the wheat spike). Twenty‐nine UK commercial wheat varieties were evaluated for the expression of Type II resistance.
