A regional assessment of the indigenous vascular plants of Niue is presented using the IUCN Red List criteria. The assessment was undertaken during a community workshop that drew on the indigenous local knowledge and scientific information. The assessment comprised 197 named taxa and 8 indeterminate entities, with 4 (2.0%) taxa assessed as Extinct and ...

Phytochemical diversity of naturally regenerated plants in a biodiversity enrichment experiment
Tree islands established within an industrial oil palm plantation promoted the recovery of phytochemical diversity through natural regeneration. Ten years after planting, untargeted metabolomics of 76 regenerating woody species detected 27,122 phytochemical features, including many novel compounds. Larger islands supported higher woody species richness

Influence of tree height and age on leaf drip‐tip morphology in lowland tropical rainforest trees
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Across biomes, plant form and function are driven largely by variation in climate, particularly the availability of light and water. Strong gradients of these resources also exist within plant communities.

Comprehensive tree assessments for prioritising conservation action in Mesoamerica
Tree species are of ecological and social importance globally. Mesoamerica has a diverse tree flora, and the region has experienced major changes in natural habitats due to human activities. In this study, for the first time, we assessed the conservation status of the region's tree species and found that 46% of trees in the region are at risk of ...

Abstract Premise Relationships between flammability and drought tolerance influence vegetation dynamics during fires. A goal of the emerging subdiscipline of pyro‐ecophysiology is to identify ecophysiological traits that determine live fuel flammability, but empirical studies of these relationships are rare.
