Carbohydrates, pollinators, and cycads [PDF]
Communicative & Integrative Biology, 2015 Cycad biology, ecology, and horticulture decisions are not supported by adequate research, and experiments in cycad physiology in particular have been deficient. Our recent report on free sugar content in a range of cycad taxa and tissues sets the stage for developing continued carbohydrate research. Growth and development of cycad pollen, mediation of

Does Plant Size Influence Leaf Elements in an Arborescent Cycad?
Biology, 2018 Plant size influences the leaf nutrient relations of many species, but no cycad species has been studied in this regard. We used the arborescent Cycas micronesica K.D.

Two Cycad Species Affect the Carbon, Nitrogen, and Phosphorus Content of Soils
Horticulturae, 2020 The influences of Cycas micronesica and Zamia integrifolia plants on soil chemistry were determined in Tinian and Florida in order to more fully understand how cycad plants affect the environments in which they grow. The introduction of C.

BMAA in cycad-feeding Lepidoptera: defensive sequestration or bioaccumulation?
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Many herbivorous Lepidoptera accumulate plant toxins within their own tissues as a defensive strategy. Pioneering research in this area was conducted by Miriam Rothschild and Deane Bowers, who showed that the cycad-feeding butterfly Eumaeus atala ...

Cycads from the Triassic of Antarctica: Permineralized Cycad Leaves [PDF]
International Journal of Plant Sciences, 2007 Permineralized cycad petioles and/or rachides with associated pinnae are described from two Triassic localities in the Queen Alexandria Range, central Transantarctic Mountains, Antarctica. Petiole‐rachides display an inverted‐omega‐shaped arrangement of vascular bundles typical of most genera of extant Cycadales and exarch primary xylem that link them ...
