Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Mycoheterotrophs are non‐photosynthetic plants that obtain all of their carbon requirements through parasitizing mycorrhizal fungi. They originated from the autotrophic ancestors and usually have more specific relationships with fungi than that of green plants, for ...

We assessed differential use of nest materials among birds at a site in Massachusetts, USA. Proportional masses of all material types differed among species. Our study supports the notion that birds using the same environment have distinct niches in relation to the materials placed in their nests.

Soil fertility heterogeneity is one of the main factors affecting early recovery and plant succession toward a target plant community. This study examined the influence of topography on the diversity and composition of plant communities established in areas degraded by opencast mining in Chocó, Colombia.

The genus Phlegmariurus Holub is recognised more widely than originally proposed and is circumscribed to include both Neotropic and Palaeotropic epiphytic and terrestrial species of Huperzioid Lycopodiaceae that have isotomous shoots, lack bulbils in ...

Summary The minute ‘dust seeds’ of some terrestrial orchids preferentially germinate and develop as mycoheterotrophic protocorms near conspecific adult plants. Here we test the hypothesis that mycorrhizal mycelial connections provide a direct pathway for transfer of recent photosynthate from conspecific green orchids to achlorophyllous protocorms ...

Insights into U‐to‐C RNA editing from the lycophyte Phylloglossum drummondii
Significance Statement U‐to‐C RNA editing is only found in plants, and within plants, only in some hornworts, lycophytes and ferns. The unusual lycophyte Phylloglossum drummondii contains four U‐to‐C editing sites that can be matched with four putative U‐to‐C editing enzymes, making it a useful model for the study of this uncommon process.
