Plant sizes and shapes above and belowground and their interactions with climate
New Phytologist, Volume 235, Issue 3, Page 1032-1056, August 2022., 2022 Summary Although the above and belowground sizes and shapes of plants strongly influence plant competition, community structure, and plant–environment interactions, plant sizes and shapes remain poorly characterized across climate regimes. We investigated relationships among shoot and root system size and climate.

Transcriptome analysis of rubber biosynthesis in guayule (Parthenium argentatum gray)
BMC Plant Biology, 2019 Background Natural rubber is currently produced nearly exclusively from latex of the Para rubber tree, Hevea brasiliensis. The desire to reduce the environmental cost of rubber production, fears of pathogen susceptibility in clonal Hevea plantations ...
