Reply to: Nutrient scarcity cannot cause mast seeding [PDF]

open access: yesNature Plants, 2020
Kelly's commentary regarding our paper1, claiming that nutrient scarcity cannot select for masting behaviour in plants, initiated a fruitful discussion on traditionally settled hypotheses about the evolution of reproductive behaviour in plants. In his commentary, Prof.

Characterizing the climatic niche of mast seeding in beech: Evidences of trade-offs between vegetation growth and seed production

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2021
Masting is a complex mechanism which is mainly driven by a combination of internal plant resources and climatic conditions. While the driving role of climate in masting is being intensively studied, the interplay among climate, seed production ...

PI3Kγ adapter subunits in mast cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The incidence of allergy and related diseases such as asthma increased rapidly over the last century, especially in western societies. The allergic symptoms impair the quality of life of patients and can even be life threatening.

Terrestrial Ecology: Natural Selection for Mast Seeding [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2020
Mast seeding is a widespread reproductive phenomenon in plants, and testing evolutionary drivers is challenging. New research uses four decades of individual-tree reproduction data and demonstrates selection for hypersensitivity to a weather cue, high temporal variability, and high synchrony with neighbours.

Mechanisms of mast seeding: resources, weather, cues, and selection [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2016
SummaryMast seeding is a widespread and widely studied phenomenon. However, the physiological mechanisms that mediate masting events and link them to weather and plant resources are still debated. Here, we explore how masting is affected by plant resource budgets, fruit maturation success, and hormonal coordination of cues including weather and ...

Differential spatial responses of rodents to masting on forest sites with differing disturbance history

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Mast seeding, the synchronized interannual variation in seed production of trees, is a well‐known bottom‐up driver for population densities of granivorous forest rodents.

Measurement and simulation of the flow field around a triangular lattice meteorological mast [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The international standard IEC 61400-12-1 “Wind turbines – Part 12-1: Power performance measurements of electricity producing wind turbines” aims to provide a uniform methodology that will ensure consistency, accuracy and reproducibility in the ...

The role of heparin in the activation of mast cell tryptase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Mast cells play an important role in our immune defense against bacteria and parasites but are also key effector cells in various inflammatory diseases. They act by releasing inflammatory mediators from intracellular granules.

The phosphoinositide 3-kinase-dependent activation of Btk is required for optimal eicosanoid production and generation of reactive oxygen species in antigen-stimulated mast cells

open access: yes, 2008
Activated mast cells are a major source of the eicosanoids PGD(2) and leukotriene C(4) (LTC(4)), which contribute to allergic responses. These eicosanoids are produced following the ERK1/2-dependent activation of cytosolic phospholipase A(2), thus ...
