Dois casos de poliembrionia em Clusiaceae: Clusia criuva Cambess. e Clusia fluminensis Planch. & Triana

Hoehnea, 2011
Ensaios de germinação com sementes de Clusia criuva Cambess. e de Clusia fluminensis Planch. & Triana, espécies dioicas, arbóreas, presentes na restinga de Maricá, Rio de Janeiro, revelaram altos percentuais germinativos, 99,2% (n = 140) para C. criuva e

A Revision of Clusia L. Section Cochlanthera (Choisy) Engler A Revision of Clusia L. Section Cochlanthera (Choisy) Engler

Caldasia, 1977
At an earlier time I published (Maguire, 1958) a review of the Section Cochlanthera of the genus Clusia L., admitting there five species. Now, after further field work in Colombia, I present an updated revision of the section with the addition of two new

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 ...

Diel net CO₂ exchange of carnivorous Pinguicula is consistent with low-level CAM photosynthesis. [PDF]

Plant Biol (Stuttg)
In carnivorous butterworts (Pinguicula), CO2 uptake occurs primarily in the light via C3 photosynthesis, yet low‐level CAM photosynthesis, including net CO2 dark fixation, significantly improves the carbon balance of plants, especially under water‐deficit conditions.

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.

Enrichment Probe Sets Combining Universal and Lineage-Specific Targets Help Resolve Recalcitrant Lineages. [PDF]

Mol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT The combination of target capture sequencing (TCS) with low‐coverage whole genome sequencing (lcWGS), an approach known as Hyb‐Seq, has allowed the integration of natural history collections into the genomics revolution, transforming biodiversity research. To implement Hyb‐Seq, a collection of genomic targets is needed to design probes.

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.
