An eco‐evolutionary optimality model explains the acclimated temperature response of photosynthesis
Summary The optimal temperature of photosynthesis (Topt) generally increases with plant growth temperature. Changes in Topt are associated with changes in the maximum carboxylation capacity at 25°C (Vcmax25) and the maximum electron transport rate at 25°C (Jmax25). The ratio between Jmax25 and Vcmax25 declines with warming.

Sample Preparation and Separation of Lignans by Liquid Chromatography
ABSTRACT Lignans are important phytochemicals found mostly in the resins of coniferous trees, but are also introduced into human diets through foods such as sesame seeds and extra‐virgin olive oil. They are pharmacologically interesting mainly because of their antioxidant activities, and they have also been shown to have cytotoxic and antimicrobial ...

Quantificação do carbono fixado em povoamentos mistos no norte de Portugal
Estudos da quantificação da produtividade nos povoamentos mistos em Portugal Continental são importantes face à escassez de informação nesta área, particularmente, no que diz respeito aos povoamentos mistos de Quercus pyrenaica e Pinus pinaster.

Abstract Latent heat (λ $\lambda $ET) fluxes are a major component of the hydrological cycle globally. According to recent models and experimental observations, during droughts, wetter regions respond by increasing λ $\lambda $ET, while drier regions exhibit decreasing trends due to vegetation water stress.

Elevation, rather than land use, causes important dietary shifts in the Mediterranean golden eagle
In an ever‐changing landscape, golden eagles in the Iberian Peninsula demonstrate remarkable dietary adaptability. We monitored 50 distinct breeding events over 4 years using camera traps, collecting over 520 000 images. Elevation, rather than land use, emerged as the main driver of prey composition: lagomorphs and columbiforms dominated at lower ...

Proteometabolomic characterization of apical bud maturation in Pinus pinaster
Abstract Bud maturation is a physiological process that implies a set of morphophysiological changes that lead to the transition of growth patterns from young to mature. This transition defines tree growth and architecture, and in consequence traits such as biomass production and wood quality.

WUSCHEL Transcription Factor: From Stem Cell Maintenance to Crop Improvement
This review synthesizes emerging insights into WUSCHEL (WUS) as a central regulator of plant stem cell fate beyond Arabidopsis, highlighting its roles in regeneration, somatic embryogenesis (SE), and stress adaptation across crops. It explores how WUS‐centered regulatory networks, genome editing, and AI‐guided strategies can be leveraged for precise ...

Resin acids as inducible chemical defences of pine seedlings against chewing insects.
Inducibility of defences in response to biotic stimuli is considered an important trait in plant resistance. In conifers, previous research has mostly focused on the inducibility of the volatile fraction of the oleoresin (mono- and sesquiterpenes ...
