Updating the occurrence of crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) in the genus Clusia through carbon isotope analysis of species from Colombia [PDF]

Photosynthetica, 2022
Clusia is a widely distributed neotropical genus with 321 currently described species. This remarkable genus is the only one known to contain trees sensu stricto with CAM photosynthesis. To survey the occurrence of CAM in Clusia species from Colombia, we

The genome sequence of a druid fly, Clusia tigrina (Fallén, 1820) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]

Wellcome Open Research, 2023
We present a genome assembly from an individual male Clusia tigrina (a druid fly; Arthropoda; Insecta; Diptera; Clusiidae). The genome sequence is 1,216.4 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 5 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including

Clusia genomes shed light on the evolution and diversity of crassulacean acid metabolism physiotypes [PDF]

Nature Communications
More than 200 years ago, Alexander von Humboldt described a tree of the genus Clusia for its ability to perform crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM).

Tropical Montane Cloud Forests Have High Resilience to Five Years of Severe Soil Drought. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol
A 5‐year throughfall exclusion experiment in a Peruvian tropical montane cloud forest reduced soil moisture by 69%, leading to lower photosynthetic inputs and autotrophic respiration but maintaining net primary productivity and carbon sink capacity. Trees responded through metabolic downregulation, reduced fruit production, increased wood density, and ...

Kernel-DMD for multiome data integration and control. [PDF]

PLoS Computational Biology
Research in multiome data integration comes with the challenge of high-dimensionality and a small sample size in time series data. Traditional statistical tools often fail to capture true functional modules in large molecular networks, resulting in ...

Tocochromanols in the Leaves of Plants in the Hypericum and Clusia Genera [PDF]

Molecules
Now under Clusiaceae and Hypericaceae, Clusia and Hypericum were previously categorized under one family until they were divided in 2003 by the APG III system.

Divergent Transcriptional Architectures Beyond Core CAM Genes in Facultative and Constitutive CAM Species in Tillandsia L. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is a water‐efficient photosynthetic strategy involving a coordinated suite of complex traits including metabolic, anatomical and regulatory aspects that shift across the diel cycle. While CAM has evolved repeatedly in land plants, the evolutionary routes enabling this convergence remain elusive.

New Polyprenylated Phloroglucinol and Other Compounds Isolated from the Fruits of Clusia nemorosa (Clusiaceae)

Molecules, 2015
Clusia nemorosa has been widely used in folk medicine to treat various ailments, including headaches and inflammation. Investigation of the fruits of Clusia nemorosa (Clusiaceae) led to the isolation and characterization of a new phloroglucinol ...

Intraspecific Trait Variation in Tree Species Responds to Environmental Heterogeneity at Range-Wide but Not Local Scales. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Here we explore the relationship between ITV, spatial and temporal environmental heterogeneity, and the breadth of species' environmental distributions for 33 tree species across eight sites across marked environmental gradients in Puerto Rico. Species with greater across‐site ITV in wood density and LMA occurred over broader ranges of potential ...

Stronger expression of crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) requires effective cuticular transpiration barriers but not necessarily strong succulence. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Discovering functional and evolutionary interdependencies of hydraulic traits and crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is crucial to understand CAM phenotype diversity and convergence. In complex traits such as CAM, the co‐option of associated traits strongly impacts the evolutionary outcome.
