Summary Following changes in light flux, photosynthesis (A) typically adjusts more quickly than stomatal conductance (gs), which is dependent on changes in stomatal aperture. Faster stomatal responses are proposed to reduce water loss and enhance growth in dynamic light environments. Stomatal opening and closing parameters were determined in a range of

Abstract Premise Flowers that present their anthers and stigma in close proximity can achieve precise animal‐mediated pollen transfer, but risk self‐pollination. One evolutionary solution is reciprocal herkogamy. Reciprocity of anther and style positions among different plants (i.e., a genetic dimorphism) is common in distylous plants, but very rare in

Undervalued Ecosystems: Ponds Boost Regional Macrophyte Diversity
ABSTRACT Ponds—depressional wetlands with ≤ 2 ha—are largely undervalued worldwide, despite serving as crucial diversity reservoirs. However, the extent to which ponds support diversity at the landscape scale is still underappreciated. Here, we investigate the contributions of ponds to macrophyte beta and gamma diversity in a subtropical wetland ...

A new interpretation on vascular architecture of the cauline system in Commelinaceae (Commelinales).
The vascular system of monocotyledons, including Commelinaceae, has been studied since the 19th century, but to date, the proposed vascular architecture models consist of schematic representations partially based on the authors' interpretation.
