Toward a macroevolutionary understanding of live‐leaf flammability in plant species of fire‐prone forests

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise The flammability of live leaves in canopies varies considerably among plant species. Identifying macroevolutionary processes that shape variation in leaf flammability contributes to an understanding of the phylogenetic underpinnings of wildfire dynamics.

Adaptive plant traits under anthropogenic burning regimes: A database for UK heath and mire plant species

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Humans have used fire to manage landscapes for millennia, but this use of fire is declining in many ecosystems. Understanding how plants respond to these changes is key to predicting ecosystem resilience and impacts on services such as biodiversity and carbon sequestration. However, many ecosystems lack data on plant fire responses.

Testing key tenets of pyro‐ecophysiology: Indicators of drought response in relation to shoot flammability

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Relationships between flammability and drought tolerance influence vegetation dynamics during fires. A goal of the emerging subdiscipline of pyro‐ecophysiology is to identify ecophysiological traits that determine live fuel flammability, but empirical studies of these relationships are rare.

Temperature and the evolution of flower color: A review

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Flower colors brighten our natural world. How and why have they evolved? How might ongoing global warming alter their evolutionary trajectories? In this review, I examine the influence of ambient temperature on the evolution of flower color.
