Developmental constraint underlies the replicated evolution of grass awns

New Phytologist, Volume 245, Issue 2, Page 835-848, January 2025.
Summary Replicated trait evolution can provide insights into the mechanisms underlying the evolution of biodiversity. One example of replicated evolution is the awn, an organ elaboration in grass inflorescences. Awns are likely homologous to leaf blades.

Establishment of a Flow‐Through System for the Macrophyte Growth Inhibition Test (OECD 239) Including Photosynthetic Activity Measurement to Determine Early Effects

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, Volume 43, Issue 12, Page 2589-2600, December 2024.
Abstract Maintaining constant exposure concentrations during ecotoxicological studies while testing rapidly degradable substances is a challenge. To achieve stable concentrations during exposure, flow‐through systems are used. To assess the impact of substances on higher aquatic plants, the 14‐day macrophyte water–sediment Myriophyllum spicatum growth ...

Evolution in Response to Management Increases Invasiveness Among Experimental Populations of Duckweed (Lemna minor)

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 17, Issue 12, December 2024.
ABSTRACT Numerous management methods are deployed to try to mitigate the destructive impact of weedy and invasive populations. Yet, such management practices may cause these populations to inadvertently evolve in ways that have consequence on their invasiveness.
