Foliar particulate matter retention and toxic trace element accumulation of six roadside plant species in a subtropical city [PDF]
As a major source of air pollution, particulate matter (PM) and associated toxic trace elements pose potentially serious threats to human health and environmental safety. As is known that plants can reduce air PM pollution.

Variation in Morphological Traits among Loropetalum chinense var. rubrum Accessions [PDF]
Loropetalum chinense var. rubrum accessions in China have not been adequately characterized for their morphological traits. Such characterization would be helpful in the development of improved cultivars and in cultivar classification.

Impact of transforming karst mountainous forests into urban parks on plant diversity patterns [PDF]
In this article, we investigated the impact of converting karst mountainous forests into urban parks on woody plant diversity and composition in a subtropical Chinese city undergoing rapid urbanization. Our research distinguishes itself from previous work in two main ways: first, we assessed the differences in diversity and species composition of woody
