Plant Stress Responses and Phenotypic Plasticity in the Epigenomics Era: Perspectives on the Grapevine Scenario, a Model for Perennial Crop Plants

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Epigenetic marks include Histone Post-Translational Modifications and DNA methylation which are known to participate in the programming of gene expression in plants and animals.

Desertification Reversal Promotes the Complexity of Plant Community by Increasing Plant Species Diversity of Each Plant Functional Type

Agronomy, 2023
Desertification reversal is globally significant for the sustainable development of land resources. However, the mechanisms of desertification reversal at the level of plant community are still unclear.

Contrasting dynamics of seed banks and standing vegetation of annuals and perennials along a rainfall gradient [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
The soil seed bank is a major component of plant communities. However, long-term analyses of the dynamics of the seed bank and the ensuing vegetation are rare. Here, we studied the dynamics in plant communities with high dominance of annuals in Mediterranean, semiarid, and arid ecosystems for nine consecutive years.

Gibberellin Inhibits Floral Initiation in the Perennial Woody Plant Jatropha curcas

Journal of Plant Growth Regulation, 2018
Gibberellin (GA) is an important phytohormone and has been reported to promote flowering in annual and biennial plants, but may play an opposite role in woody perennial plants.

Genetic Diversity and Population Structure of Jujube Cultivars in the United States Revealed by Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Markers

Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science
The nutritional and medicinal significance of jujube (Ziziphus jujuba) has led to persistent efforts in genomics to accelerate the utilization of its germplasm resources.

Invasion Age and Invader Removal Alter Species Cover and Composition at the Suisun Tidal Marsh, California, USA

Diversity, 2011
Wetland ecosystems are vulnerable to plant species invasions, which can greatly alter species composition and ecosystem functioning. The response of these communities to restoration can vary following invader removal, but few studies have evaluated how ...

Optimal allocation patterns and optimal seed mass of a perennial plant

, 2013
We present a novel optimal allocation model for perennial plants, in which assimilates are not allocated directly to vegetative or reproductive parts but instead go first to a storage compartment from where they are then optimally redistributed.

Arbuscular mycorrhiza can be disadvantageous for weedy annuals in competition with paired perennial plants

Scientific Reports, 2022
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi can support the establishment of mycotrophic plants in new environments. However, the role of mycorrhizal symbiosis in interactions between perennial and weedy annual plants is not well understood.

miR172 Regulates both Vegetative and Reproductive Development in the Perennial Woody Plant Jatropha curcas

Plant and Cell Physiology, 2018
Jatropha curcas is a promising feedstock for biofuel production because its oil is highly suitable for processing bio-jet fuels and biodiesel. However, Jatropha exhibits a long juvenile stage in subtropical areas.
