VASE LIFE OF Heuchera L. LEAVES FOLLOWING THE APPLICATION OF BENZYLADENINE

Acta Scientiarum Polonorum: Hortorum Cultus, 2017
The aim of this study was to assess vase life of leaves harvested at two dates – in the spring and summer, for 3 cultivars of Heuchera L. following the application of benzyladenine in spraying of maternal plants one day prior to leaf harvest.

Global patterns of treeline predictability and the gap between the forest and the treeline

Ecography, EarlyView.
The alpine treeline is the highest elevation at which trees can grow, which is assumed to be controlled by temperature and globally predictable. However, many upper forest limits (UFLs) do not reach this elevation, due natural factors and human disturbance.

Spatial variation and predictors of plant species' intrinsic climate sensitivity across the conterminous United States

Ecography, EarlyView.
Understanding how species' sensitivity to climate varies spatially across their ranges and elucidating the important causes is essential for identifying ecologically meaningful geographic units and conservation actions for biodiversity. In this study, we estimated climatic occurrence niches of vascular plants to explore the spatial variation in species'

THE SHORT-TERM COLD STORAGE EFFECT ON VASE LIFE OF CUT Hosta LEAVES

Acta Scientiarum Polonorum: Hortorum Cultus, 2007
The longevity of cut leaves in flower arrangements is an important commercial consideration in horticultural practices. Here we report on the effect of short-term cold storage, in combination with a cytokinin treatment, on the post harvest longevity of ...

Pollen Morphology of Crucianella L. (Rubiaceae) Based on Light and Scanning Electron Microscope Data and Implications for Taxonomy

Microscopy Research and Technique, EarlyView.
This study provides the palynological analysis of 12 Crucianella L. taxa using LM and SEM. Variations in pollen size, aperture number, and exine ornamentation were identified as key traits, demonstrating their taxonomic value for distinguishing closely related species and subspecies within the genus. ABSTRACT Crucianella L.

Plants, people and their shared heritage: A comparative medicinal and wild food ethnobotany of Albanians, Greeks and Aromanians living in the Gjirokaster area, southern Albania

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Traditional knowledge about wild plants connects people to nature and sustains both cultural identity and biodiversity. This study explores how cultural exchange among Albanians, Greeks and Aromanians in southern Albania shapes the use and naming of medicinal and food plants.

EFFECT OF PULSING WITH GROWTH REGULATORS ON SENESCENCE OF THE DETACHED COLD-STORED LEAVES OF Zantedeschia aethiopica Spr. AND Hosta ‘Undulata Erromena’

Acta Scientiarum Polonorum: Hortorum Cultus, 2005
Cut leaves of Zantedeschia aethiopica Spr. and Hosta ‘Undulata Erromena’ are widely used as the florists’ green. Effect of pulsing leaves with growth regulators and a storage method (dry or wet, in light or darkness, at 5°C) on postharvest longevity and

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

PLANTS, 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.
