Geographical patterns and determinants in plant reproductive phenology duration
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Biodiversity is and always has been an important issue in ecological research. Biodiversity can reflect niche partitioning among species at several spatial and temporal scales and is generally highest in the tropics.

Reproductive phenology in a Norway spruce seed orchard
Silva Fennica, 2001 Reproductive phenology was studied in a Norway spruce seed orchard, located in southern Finland (62°13âN, 25°24âE), consisting of 67 clones from northern Finland (64°â67°N).

VASCULAR EPIPHYTES: THE UGLY DUCKLING OF PHENOLOGICAL STUDIES
Acta Biológica Colombiana, 2021 The phenology of vascular epiphytes, which represent account for about 10 % of the world’s flowering plants and perform important ecological functions, has been just partially explored. Since phenology is a key tool for the management and conservation of

, 2010 Phenological timing -- i.e. the course of annually recurring development stages in nature -- is of particular interest since it can be understood as a proxy for the climate at a specific region; moreover changes in the so called phenological phases can ...

Duodichogamy and androdioecy in the Chinese Phyllanthaceae Bridelia tomentosa [PDF]
, 2007 Flowering plants commonly separate male and female function in time, but rarely are the two stages synchronized within and among individuals. One such temporal mating system is duodichogamy in which each plant produces two batches of male flowers that ...

Rangewide responses of Mimulus cardinalis to an extreme heat event
American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Extreme events are an understudied aspect of ongoing anthropogenic climate change that could play a disproportionate role in the threat that rapid environmental shifts pose to natural populations. Methods We exposed plants originating from seeds that were harvested before (ancestors) and after (descendants) multiple extreme heat events

Scientific Reports, 2021 Habitat fragmentation is one of the drivers for amphibian population declines globally. Especially in industrialized countries roads disrupt the seasonal migration of amphibians between hibernation and reproduction sites, often ending in roadkills. Thus,

Variation in the flowering time orthologs BrFLC and BrSOC1 in a natural population of Brassica rapa. [PDF]
, 2015 Understanding the genetic basis of natural phenotypic variation is of great importance, particularly since selection can act on this variation to cause evolution.

Plant‐herbivore synchrony and selection on plant flowering phenology [PDF]
Ecology, 2017 AbstractTemporal variation in natural selection has profound effects on the evolutionary trajectories of populations. One potential source of variation in selection is that differences in thermal reaction norms and temperature influence the relative phenology of interacting species.

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise The carnivorous plant genus Pinguicula (Lentibulariaceae) exhibits remarkable floral diversity associated with pollination, particularly in the largest subgenus Temnoceras, which spans Mexico and Central America. Despite this diversity, the relationships between species and the evolution of key floral traits remain unresolved. Here, we
