Evolution of Terpene Synthases in Orchidaceae [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 Terpenoids are the largest class of plant secondary metabolites and are one of the major emitted volatile compounds released to the atmosphere. They have functions of attracting pollinators or defense function, insecticidal properties, and are even used ...

Intrachromosomal karyotype asymmetry in Orchidaceae [PDF]
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2017 The asymmetry indexes have helped cytotaxonomists to interpret and classify plant karyotypes for species delimitation efforts. However, there is no consensus about the best method to calculate the intrachromosomal asymmetry.

Symbiont switching and trophic mode shifts in Orchidaceae
New Phytologist, 2021 Summary Mycorrhizal fungi are central to the biology of land plants. However, to what extent mycorrhizal shifts – broad evolutionary transitions in root‐associated fungal symbionts – are related to changes in plant trophic modes remains poorly understood.

Predicting evolution in response to climate change: the example of sprouting probability in three dormancy-prone orchid species [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2017 Although many ecological properties of species respond to climate change, their evolutionary responses are poorly understood. Here, we use data from long-term demographic studies to predict evolutionary responses of three herbaceous perennial orchid ...
