Functional traits explain growth response to successive hotter droughts across a wide set of common and future tree species in Europe

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Functional traits can explain significant tree growth reductions in response to the 2018–2020 drought for a wide set of 71 species including angiosperms and gymnosperms. Moreover, four distinct response types emerged: ‘Sufferer’, ‘Late sufferer’, ‘Recoverer’ and ‘Resister’, with gymnosperms predominately appearing as ‘Sufferer’ and ‘Late sufferer ...

Structure and spacing of cellulose microfibrils in woody cell walls of dicots [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The structure of cellulose microfibrils in situ in wood from the dicotyledonous (hardwood) species cherry and birch, and the vascular tissue from sunflower stems, was examined by wide-angle X-ray and neutron scattering (WAXS and WANS) and small-angle ...

Positive mixture effects in pine–oak forests during drought are context‐dependent

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Mixture effects in drought‐stressed pine‐oak forests are context‐dependent, with Gambel oak and ponderosa pine benefiting from their complementarity under semi‐arid conditions. Abstract The increasing severity and frequency of droughts will play a pivotal role in shaping future forest ecosystems worldwide.

Palaeoclimate changes in the Afyon province, Sw-Turkey, during the Middle-Late Pleistocene: Signals from calcareous tufa pollen and stable isotope records [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The calcareous tufas of Sarikavak located in the northern part of NE-SW trending Acigöl Graben in SW-Turkey are investigated in detail. For this aim, various analyses (stable isotopes, U/Th dating, palynology) have been carried out on samples obtained ...

Diversification of the C-TERMINALLY ENCODED PEPTIDE (CEP) gene family in angiosperms, and evolution of plant-family specific CEP genes

open access: yes, 2016
BACKGROUND Small, secreted signaling peptides work in parallel with phytohormones to control important aspects of plant growth and development. Genes from the C-TERMINALLY ENCODED PEPTIDE (CEP) family produce such peptides which negatively regulate plant

The tasiR‐ARF pathway in plants: origin, functions, and interplay of miR‐390, tasiRNAs and ARF3

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Trans‐acting small interfering RNAs that silence a subset of Auxin Response Factors are crucial for plant growth, developmental timing, proper organ patterning, and coping with stress. Abstract Trans‐acting small interfering RNA (tasiRNAs) are a special type of endogenous small RNAs (sRNAs) found only in plants.

Life habits and evolutionary biology of new two-winged long-proboscid scorpionflies from mid-Cretaceous Myanmar amber

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Long-proboscid scorpionflies were associated with mid-Mesozoic gymnosperm pollination. Here, Lin et al. establish a new family of long-proboscid scorpionflies from Myanmar amber, elucidate evolutionary mechanisms of hind-wing reduction, and detail ...

Was the evolution of faster stomata driven by increased gas exchange rates rather than increasing water use efficiency?

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 5, Page 2355-2371, March 2026.
Summary Following changes in light flux, photosynthesis (A) typically adjusts more quickly than stomatal conductance (gs), which is dependent on changes in stomatal aperture. Faster stomatal responses are proposed to reduce water loss and enhance growth in dynamic light environments. Stomatal opening and closing parameters were determined in a range of
