Leaf heat tolerance in a native Californian shrub responds in expected and unexpected ways to differences in range, season, and sunlight exposure

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Earth's ecosystems are experiencing wide‐ranging impacts from global climate change, including increased average and extreme temperatures. These temperature shifts can drastically affect plant physiology, threatening the future of even common plant species. Here, we focus on photosynthetic function in a native Southern California shrub species.

Effects of floristics, physiognomy and non-native vegetation on riparian bird communities in a Mojave Desert watershed

open access: yes, 2003
1 In the deserts of the south-western United States of America, as in many ecoregions around the world, invasion of non-native plants is modifying the structure and composition of riparian vegetation.2 Restoration of native plant species frequently ...

Beyond forests: Harnessing conservation gardening for open biomes in Brazil

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Urban gardening offers an innovative conservation strategy by integrating native ornamental species into urban landscapes. We evaluated the ornamental potential of the Brazilian flora by comparing the representation of species from forests versus open biomes (focusing on campo rupestre grasslands) and introduced and validated the Index of Ornamental ...

Planting for healthy air: Urban biodiversity enhances natural chemical environments

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Cities urgently need nature to improve public health, support biodiversity, and increase resilience to climate change. Yet not all green spaces offer the same benefits. In this study, we show that more diverse urban plantings create richer “chemical environments”; subtle, naturally scented atmospheres formed by plant emissions that can influence how ...

Inselberg, taxa, environment data for Inselberg floristics exemplify coast to inland OCBIL transition in a global diversity hotspot

open access: yes, 2020
We examined floristics of granitoid inselbergs in the hitherto poorly documented southeastern region of the Southwest Australian Floristic Region (SWAFR) and adjacent Great Western Woodlands, addressing several hypotheses of OCBIL theory.

Accidental plant poisonings in France: Lessons from a decade of national toxicovigilance

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Accidental plant poisonings reveal how modern societies are losing everyday botanical knowledge once central to food and health safety. By analyzing a decade of French toxicovigilance data, this study shows that most severe cases arise from plant misidentification or misguided self‐medication.

Niche‐tracking as a collecting method: Habitat‐targeted search strategies for taxon‐focused botany

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Biodiversity science depends on more than collecting plants—it depends on how we search for them. Although GPS and digital maps have transformed fieldwork, they can also encourage repeated visits to the same easy‐to‐access sites, leaving other habitats and populations unknown to science.

Bird's Response to Revegetation of Different Structure and Floristics - Are "Restoration Plantings" Restoring Bird Communities?

open access: yes, 2016
Revegetation plantings have been established throughout the world to mitigate the effects of clearing, including loss of faunal habitat. Revegetation plantings can differ substantially in structural complexity and plant diversity, with potentially ...
