Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 468-478, March 2026.Both diurnal and nocturnal pollinators are important in the desert plant Nerine laticoma. Abstract The evolutionary limits to generalization in plant pollination systems are often determined by trade‐offs in which adaptations to one set of flower visitors reduces the effectiveness of another set of visitors.

Tunicate bulb size variation in monocots explained by temperature and phenology
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Plant bulbs are modified shoot systems comprised of short internodes with apical bud(s) surrounded by layers of leaf bases. Bulb diameters can vary greatly, with overall bulb size playing a role in flower formation and resource allocation.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.Plant litter quality (nutrient content and toughness) varies extensively within native and invasive Hawaiian plants, with strong links to climate. Minimal differentiation between native and invasive species indicates weak support for the prediction that invasives have higher quality litter associated with fast decomposition and resource use strategies.

Friends or foes? Polyploidy and competition in a grassland geophyte
Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 2, February 2026.Previous studies have suggested polyploids may possess a competitive advantage over diploids, due to their larger size, increased vigour or ability to better respond to abiotic stress. However, few studies have tested the effect of polyploidy on competitive ability directly, and only relatively recently has this oversight begun to be addressed. Here we
