Links between belowground and aboveground resource-related traits reveal species growth strategies that promote invasive advantages. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Belowground processes are rarely considered in comparison studies of native verses invasive species. We examined relationships between belowground fine root production and lifespan, leaf phenology, and seasonal nitrogen dynamics of Lonicera japonica (non-

Multiple Consequences Induced by Epidermally-Located Anthocyanins in Young, Mature and Senescent Leaves of Prunus

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Anthocyanic morphs are generally less efficient in terms of carbon gain, but, in turn, are more photoprotected than anthocyanin-less ones. To date, mature leaves of different morphs or leaves at different developmental stages within the same species have

Overwintering evergreen oaks reverse typical relationships between leaf traits in a species spectrum [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2016
The leaf economics spectrum has given us a fundamental understanding of the species variations in leaf variables. Across plant species, tight correlations among leaf mass per area (LMA), mass-based nitrogen (Nm) and photosynthetic rate (Am) and leaf ...

Research progress on the relationship between leaf senescence and quality, yield and stress resistance in horticultural plants

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Leaf senescence, the final stage of leaf development, is one of the adaptive mechanisms formed by plants over a long period of evolution. Leaf senescence is accompanied by various changes in cell structure, physiological metabolism, and gene expressions.

The sensory system acts with a neuromedin U signaling pathway to mediate food type-dependent effects on lifespan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In order to survive, the animal uses its sensory system to interpret the complexity of its environment. Interestingly, a subset of sensory neurons, which function in taste or olfaction, has been found to influence the lifespan of C.
