The shade-avoidance syndrome: Multiple signals and ecological consequences [PDF]
Plants use photoreceptor proteins to detect the proximity of other plants and to activate adaptive responses. Of these photoreceptors, phytochrome B (phyB), which is sensitive to changes in the red (R) to far-red (FR) ratio of sunlight, is the one that ...

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

Plant Life without Ethylene [PDF]
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.

Microbial modulation of plant ethylene signaling: ecological and evolutionary consequences [PDF]
The plant hormone ethylene is one of the central regulators of plant development and stress resistance. Optimal ethylene signaling is essential for plant fitness and is under strong selection pressure. Plants upregulate ethylene production in response to

Decreasing parental task specialization promotes conditional cooperation
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.

Extreme flooding tolerance in Rorippa [PDF]
Low oxygen stress imposed by floods creates a strong selection force shaping plant ecosystems in flood-prone areas. Plants inhabiting these environments adopt various adaptations and survival strategies to cope with increasing water depths.

Gap effects on leaf traits of tropical rainforest trees differing in juvenile light requirement [PDF]
The relationships of 16 leaf traits and their plasticity with the dependence of tree species on gaps for regeneration (gap association index; GAI) were examined in a Neotropical rainforest. Young saplings of 24 species with varying GAI were grown under a

Towards an IPCC Atlas for comprehensive climate change risk assessments
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 ...

Males often express traits that improve competitive ability, such as aggressiveness. Females also express such traits but our understanding about why is limited.
