Global increase of lianas in tropical forests
AbstractLianas profoundly affect tropical forests dynamics, reducing productivity and carbon storage, which underscores the importance of monitoring change in their abundance in projecting the future of the global terrestrial carbon store. While increasing liana populations are documented within the Neotropics, the global consistency of these patterns ...

‘Out of the Tropics’ Sheds Light on Latitudinal Gradients in Clade Ages of Climbers, China
We aim to test hypotheses on the patterns of clade age of climbing plants under climatic variations along the latitudinal gradients in China. Specifically, we uncover their general patterns of mean family age (MFA) and their climatic drivers. We evaluate

We identified SRF as the key TF significantly associated with the malignant phenotype and poor prognosis of GBM. SRF forms a transcriptional complex with P54nrb via phase separation to upregulate the expression of OLFML3. OLFML3 activates ECs and promotes angiogenesis by degrading ECM, releasing proangiogenic factors, enhancing cell–cell adhesion, and ...

Using phenology to improve invasive plant detection in fine‐scale hyperspectral drone‐based images
Using drone‐based hyperspectral images of mixed temperate successional forests collected over a growing season, detection algorithms were produced for three invasive species of interest, which are not only invasive in Virginia but also much of the U.S.: Ailanthus altissima (tree of heaven), Elaeagnus umbellata (autumn olive), and Rhamnus davurica ...

Molecular phylogenetics clarifies generic boundaries of the papilionoid legume subtribe Clitoriinae
Abstract Clitoriinae is a morphologically distinctive and pantropically distributed subtribe within the legume tribe Phaseoleae (Leguminosae, Papilionoideae), yet its genus‐level taxonomic classification remains uncertain. This study presents the most comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of Clitoriinae to date, integrating plastid (matK/trnK) and ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plants can express considerable plasticity in leaf functional traits, but that plasticity may be constrained by coordination and trade‐offs among multiple functions.

LIANA+_Integrating_MultiOmics_Data v1
A Protocol describing the application of LIANA+ on a spatially-resolved metabolite-transcriptome dataset from a recent murine Parkinson’s disease model Vicari et al., 2023. We demonstrate LIANA+’s utility in harmonizing spatially-resolved transcriptomics and MALDI-MSI data to unravel metabolite-mediated interactions and the molecular mechanisms of ...

Landscape forest cover, not edge contrast, modulates edge effects on palm diversity
Our findings demonstrate that landscape forest cover plays a critical role in modulating edge effects in plant communities in our study system, but not all woody crops systems provide buffering benefits, as cacao plantations in our study failed to soften edge effects.

Strategies for dry forest recovery: Fifteen years of Caribbean experimentation across scales
Slow recovery of degraded Caribbean dry tropical forests can be accelerated by combining herbivore removal at landscape scales with enrichment planting of rare tree species under the cover of remnant forest patches. Long‐legacy effects on soils and forest taxonomical and functional diversity require long‐term management and community engagement ...

Beyond Extrafloral Nectaries: Plant Traits as Drivers of Spider Occurrence in the Cerrado
ABSTRACT Patterns of predator occurrence arise from a mosaic of plant‐derived cues, yet most studies address these traits in isolation. Although extrafloral nectaries have received considerable attention, we lack a comprehensive view of how multiple plant traits jointly affect the diversity and abundance of spiders.
