Widespread male sterility and trioecy in androdioecious Mercurialis annua: Its distribution, genetic basis, and estimates of morph-specific fitness components. [PDF]
Abstract Premise Angiosperms range in sexual system from hermaphroditism through gynodioecy and androdioecy to dioecy. Trioecy, where females and males coexist with hermaphrodites, is rare. Recently, trioecy was documented in hexaploid populations of the wind‐pollinated herb Mercurialis annua in Spain.

Effects of Lightning on Trees: A Predictive Model Based on in situ Electrical Resistivity [PDF]
The effects of lightning on trees range from catastrophic death to the absence of observable damage. Such differences may be predictable among tree species, and more generally among plant life history strategies and growth forms.

Micropropagation of sea grape (Coccoloba uvifera (L.) L.)
Abstract A method for micropropagation of Coccoloba uvifera (L.) L. has been developed through bud proliferation from surface-sterilized nodal explants collected from a 9 yr old mature tree. Ninety six percent of the explants exhibited bud development on agar-gelled Murashige and Skoog's (MS) medium supplemented with 3.0 mg L−1 6-benzylaminopurine ...
