Synchronous Pulsed Flowering: Analysis of the Flowering Phenology in Juncus (Juncaceae) [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2007
The timing of flowering within and among individuals is of fundamental biological importance because of its influence on total seed production and, ultimately, fitness. Traditional descriptive parameters of flowering phenology focus on onset and duration of flowering and on synchrony among individuals.

Methods for broad‐scale plant phenology assessments using citizen scientists’ photographs

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, 2020
Premise Citizen science platforms for sharing photographed digital vouchers, such as iNaturalist, are a promising source of phenology data, but methods and best practices for use have not been developed.

Increasing temperature causes flowering onset time changes of alpine ginger Roscoea in the Central Himalayas

open access: yesJournal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity, 2015

Plant phenology supports the multi-emergence hypothesis for ebola spillover events [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Ebola virus disease outbreaks in animals (including humans and great apes) start with sporadic host switches from unknown reservoir species. The factors leading to such spillover events are little explored.

Flowering phenology shifts in response to biodiversity loss. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2017
Significance Advanced spring flowering has been described as a fingerprint of climate change—a public, visible display of the detrimental effects of global warming. However, warming experiments fail to account for the full magnitude of observed changes in phenology, suggesting that other factors may play important roles.

Nonnative old‐field species inhabit early season phenological niches and exhibit unique sensitivity to climate

open access: yesEcosphere, 2020
Native and nonnative plant species can exhibit differences in the timing of their reproductive phenology and their phenological sensitivity to climate.

Advancing understanding of oat phenology for crop adaptation

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Oat (Avena sativa) is an annual cereal grown for forage, fodder and grain. Seasonal flowering behaviour, or phenology, is a key contributor to the success of oat as a crop. As a species, oat is a vernalization-responsive long-day plant that flowers after

Simultaneous selection on vegetative and reproductive phenology in a perennial herb

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
The timing of different life‐history events is often correlated, and selection might only rarely be exerted independently on the timing of a single event. In plants, phenotypic selection has often been shown to favor earlier flowering. However, little is

Climate and synchrony with conspecifics determine the effects of flowering phenology on reproductive success in Silene acaulis

open access: yesArctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research, 2018
Changes in flowering phenology resulting from climate change could impact individual plant fitness and population viability. Flowering phenology can mediate plant reproductive success in several ways, including pollinator interactions, flowering ...
