An Evolutionary Perspective on Human Cross-sensitivity to Tree Nut and Seed Allergens [PDF]
Tree nut allergies are some of the most common and serious allergies in the United States. Patients who are sensitive to nuts or to seeds commonly called nuts are advised to avoid consuming a variety of different species, even though these may be ...

The phylogenetic distance among species in a community (community phylogenetic structure) has been used to infer deterministic and stochastic assembly processes, albeit with criticisms. The effect of phylogenetic scale (old versus young lineages) and spatial scale on measures of CPS are rarely tested simultaneously, especially in the boreal biome, yet ...

Revision of Pycnandra subgenus Sebertia (Sapotaceae) and a generic key to the family in New Caledonia [PDF]
The satellite genus Sebertia (Sapotaceae, Chrysophylloideae) in New Caledonia is here recognized as Pycnandra subgenus Sebertia, a group comprising only two species. Pycnandra canaliculata is described and illustrated as new from the south part of Grande

Summary Floral zygomorphy, or monosymmetry, is thought to have a positive effect on the diversification rates of angiosperms, but its true impact is still an open topic. Given the controversy surrounding this matter, our study evaluates whether rewards such as nectar and pollen produced by floral structures evolve in correlation with floral symmetry ...

Global variability in hydraulic traits and water use strategies of mountain shrubs and dwarf shrubs
Shrubs show a wide range of hydraulic strategies to achieve a balanced and favourable water status in mountain areas. Abstract Shrubs are perennial, multi‐stemmed woody plants whose adaptation to stress factors allows them to colonise extreme habitats, including high elevations. Accordingly, shrubs are one of the most important growth forms in mountain

Ericalean pollen was recovered from the Ban Pa Kha Subbasin, Li Basin, northern Thailand. Based on the ecological preferences of their modern analogs, the assemblage of dispersed ericalean pollen likely derives from more than one vegetation type and possibly from different vertical zones of mountainous areas.

Floral structure and systematics in four orders of rosids, including a broad survey of floral mucilage cells [PDF]
Phylogenetic studies have greatly impacted upon the circumscription of taxa within the rosid clade, resulting in novel relationships at all systematic levels. In many cases the floral structure of these taxa has never been compared, and in some families,
