Plant Life without Ethylene [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We propose that the ability to synthesize ethylene was selectively lost in evolution when the ancestors of fully aquatic higher plants lost their terrestrial lifestyle.

Decreasing parental task specialization promotes conditional cooperation

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
How much to invest in parental care and by who remain puzzling questions fomented by a sexual conflict between parents. Negotiation that facilitates coordinated parental behaviour may be key to ease this costly conflict.

Cation transporters in cell fate determination and plant adaptive responses to a low-oxygen environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Soil flooding creates low-oxygen environments in root zones and thus severely affects plant growth and productivity. Plants adapt to low-oxygen environments by a suite of orchestrated metabolic and anatomical alterations.

Towards an IPCC Atlas for comprehensive climate change risk assessments

open access: yesnpj Climate Action
Climate risk assessments are crucial in quantifying and communicating risks in a clear and concise manner. In light of the rapidly proceeding climatic changes, there is a growing need for a more comprehensive integration and a more effective overview of ...

The Female Perspective of Personality in a Wild Songbird: Repeatable Aggressiveness Relates to Exploration Behaviour

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Males often express traits that improve competitive ability, such as aggressiveness. Females also express such traits but our understanding about why is limited.

Classifying avian drinking behaviour: ecological insights and implications in a changing world

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Water is a fundamental currency of life, and its availability significantly influences animal behaviour, physiology and distributions. However, our knowledge around the dependence on water for drinking and the direct and indirect mechanisms driving related behaviours remains partial in the context of changing climates. Here, we review patterns

Different ways to die in a changing world: Consequences of climate change for tree species performance and survival through an ecophysiological perspective

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
Anthropogenic activities such as uncontrolled deforestation and increasing greenhouse gas emissions are responsible for triggering a series of environmental imbalances that affect the Earth's complex climate dynamics.

Low Light Conditions Alter Genome-Wide Profiles of Circular RNAs in Rice Grains during Grain Filling

open access: yesPlants, 2022
In animals and plants, circRNAs regulate gene expression and act as sponges that inhibit the activity of microRNAs. This study aimed to determine how specific circRNAs are expressed in rice grains at different stages of grain filling, under normal and ...

Underground Lag: Fungal Community and Edaphic Legacies After Disturbance

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Páramos are neotropical mountain ecosystems that regulate water and store large amounts of carbon, but are increasingly degraded by agriculture and grazing. Although native vegetation often recolonizes after abandonment, belowground recovery remains poorly understood.
