Ophiorrhiza jomyi (Rubiaceae) sp. nov. from the Vagamon Hills, southern Western Ghats, India

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
A new species of Ophiorrhiza (Rubiaceae)is identified and described from the Vagamon hills of Kerala, Western Ghats, India. The new species is similar to Ophiorrhiza eriantha Wight and Ophiorrhiza meenachilarensis Robi and Balan, but differs in having densely hirsute hairs on young stem, petiole and peduncle; patent hirsute hairs on, above and beneath ...

Natural variation in abiotic stress responsive gene expression and local adaptation to climate in Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]

, 2014
Gene expression varies widely in natural populations, yet the proximate and ultimate causes of this variation are poorly known. Understanding how variation in gene expression affects abiotic stress tolerance, fitness, and adaptation is central to the ...

Rapid Shifts of Peak Flowering Phenology in 12 Species under the Effects of Extreme Climate Events in Macao

Scientific Reports, 2018
Plant phenology is sensitive to climate change; the timing of flowering has served as a visible indicator of plant phenology in numerous studies. The present study used phenological records from a manual monitoring program to characterize the flowering ...

Hechtia mixtecana sp. nov. (Hechtioideae; Bromeliaceae), from Oaxaca, Mexico

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Botanical explorations carried out in the state of Oaxaca, Mexico, led to the discovery of a new Bromeliaceae: Hechtia mixtecana,which is here described and illustrated. The new taxon is compared with the morphologically similar Hechtia fragilis, Hechtia lyman‐smithii, and Hechtia minuta.

Plant species phenology differs between climate and land‐use scenarios and relates to plant functional traits

Ecology and Evolution
Phenological shifts due to changing climate are often highly species and context specific. Land‐use practices such as mowing or grazing directly affect the phenology of grassland species, but it is unclear if plants are similarly affected by climate ...

Climate change at the ecosystem scale: a 50-year record in New Hampshire [PDF]

, 2012
Observing the full range of climate change impacts at the local scale is difficult. Predicted rates of change are often small relative to interannual variability, and few locations have sufficiently comprehensive long-term records of environmental ...
