Revegetation of abandoned copper mines: the role of seed banks and soil amendments [PDF]
Web Ecology, 2013 Mining is one of the main causes of environmental pollution by heavy metals and (re)vegetation of mine spoils is the most effective method of preventing wind and water erosion and the consequent spread of contaminants to surrounding areas. However, plant

Chemical cannibalistic cues make damselfly larvae hide rather than hunt
Scientific Reports, 2023 Adopting cannibalism substantially affects individual fitness, and recognizing the presence of other cannibals provides additional benefits such as the opportunity to prepare for hunting or defense.

Palm Functional Traits, Soil Fertility and Hydrology Relationships in Western Amazonia
Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2021 Quantification of multivariate trait spectra (or axes of specialization) make the definition of plant strategies more operational, which promotes trait-based theory of community assembly and the understanding of dynamics and functioning of ecosystems. We

Diversity and Ecological Functions of Anthocyanins
BMC Plant BiologyAnthocyanins are well known as colorants of flowers, but many other invisible functions might have been more important during the evolution of complex biosynthesis networks in plants. The number of anthocyanin decorating enzymes, the subtle control of structural genes by numerous transcription factors, and routes of intracellular anthocyanin transport ...
