Pollination and plant reproduction in the Cerrado, the world's most biodiverse savanna
ABSTRACT The Brazilian Cerrado is a continental‐wide biodiversity hotspot and the most species‐rich savanna ecosystem in the world. The main aspect characterising this biodiversity is that the landscape is arranged as an intricate mosaic of different plant formations, including grasslands, savannas, and forests, each harbouring distinct but ...

Filamentous sieve element proteins are able to limit phloem mass flow, but not phytoplasma spread [PDF]
In Fabaceae, dispersion of forisomes\u2014highly ordered aggregates of sieve element proteins\u2014in response to phytoplasma infection was proposed to limit phloem mass flow and, hence, prevent pathogen spread.
