Environmental factors have a greater influence on photosynthetic capacity in C4 plants than biochemical subtypes or growth forms

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Our understanding of how photosynthetic capacity varies among C4 species and across growth and measurement conditions remains limited. We collated 1696 CO2 response curves of net CO2 assimilation rate (A/Ci curves) from C4 species grown and measured at various environmental conditions and used these data to estimate the apparent maximum ...

Mapping and Distribution of Torpedograss and Evaluating the Effectiveness of Torpedograss Management Activities in Lake Okeechobee, Florida [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Thousands of hectares of native plants and shallow open water habitat have been displaced in Lake Okeechobee’s marsh by the invasive exotic species torpedograss ( Panicum repens L.).

Viral‐mediated delivery of morphogenic regulators enables leaf transformation in Sorghum bicolor (L.)

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Recent advancements in monocot transformation, using leaf tissue as explant material, have expanded the number of grass species capable of transgenesis. However, the complexity of vectors and reliance on inducible excision of essential morphogenic regulators have so far limited widespread application.

Evolutionary relationships in Panicoid grasses based on plastome phylogenomics (Panicoideae; Poaceae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Panicoideae are the second largest subfamily in Poaceae (grass family), with 212 genera and approximately 3316 species. Previous studies have begun to reveal relationships within the subfamily, but largely lack resolution and/or robust ...

Emerging Viral Threats in Rice: A Decade of Discovery and Implications for Crop Protection

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rice viral diseases pose severe threats to global food security, with over 20 viruses identified in China alone. The advent of high‐throughput sequencing has accelerated the discovery of novel viruses in cultivated and wild rice, unveiling previously undetected threats.

Field‐grown coastal dune plants exhibit similar survival, growth, and biomass in recycled glass substrate and natural beach sand

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Restoration of coastal dunes following tropical storm events often requires renourishment of sand substrate dredged from offshore sources, although dredging has well‐described negative ecological impacts and high economic costs. As a potential solution, recycled glass sand (cullet) made from crushed glass bottles has been proposed as a potential ...

A survey of selected coastal vegetation communities of Florida [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
A survey of coastal vegetation around Florida was conducted during 1973 and 1974. Seventeen sites were selected and sampled using the transect method to determine species occurrence, relative densities, and habitat development and structure.

Prebiotic biostimulation for enhanced soil microbial activity and growth of diverse native grasses

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Given the urgency of addressing grassy ecosystem loss, there is a growing demand for cost‐effective, evidence‐based restoration and revegetation strategies for Poacaeae. Prebiotics applied to soils to promote microbial activity and diversity are widely used for grass crops in agriculture, but their efficacy in improving native grass establishment ...

Terzyme: a tool for identification and analysis of the plant terpenome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND: Terpenoid hydrocarbons represent the largest and most ancient group of phytochemicals, such that the entire chemical library of a plant is often referred to as its 'terpenome'.
