AngleCam: Predicting the temporal variation of leaf angle distributions from image series with deep learning

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 11, Page 2531-2545, November 2022., 2022
Abstract Vertical leaf angles and their variation through time are directly related to several ecophysiological processes and properties. However, there is no efficient method for tracking leaf angles of plant canopies under field conditions. Here, we present AngleCam, a deep learning‐based approach to predict leaf angle distributions from horizontal ...

A 100‐Million‐Year Gap in the Knowledge of the Evolutionary History of Bromeliaceae: A Brief Review of Fossil Records

open access: yesFeddes Repertorium, Volume 132, Issue 1, Page 20-27, March 2021., 2021
Bromeliaceae arose in the Early Cretaceous, diverging from Typhaceae at ca. 125 Ma. After an apparent evolutionary stasis of 100 million years, they have undergone a high diversification starting in the Miocene. By adding fossils to the phylogenies, one can infer dates of arising and the divergence of lineages and link them to geological and climatic ...

Plant dispersal across the tropical Atlantic by wind and sea currents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This review brings together evidence on the monophyly and ages of angiosperm lineages ranging across the tropical Atlantic with data on the direction, strength, and speed of sea currents and wind jets across that ocean. Mainly for pragmatic reasons (data

The bracteatus pineapple genome and domestication of clonally propagated crops [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Domestication of clonally propagated crops such as pineapple from South America was hypothesized to be a 'one-step operation'. We sequenced the genome of Ananas comosus var.

Vascular plants on inselberg landscapes in Espírito Santo state: bases for the creation of a protected area in southeastern Brazil

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2021
Inselbergs are granitic or gneissic rocky outcrops prevalent in the landscape of southeastern Brazil. These ecosystems represent islands of isolated habitats that harbor a peculiar flora with high richness and endemism.

Phylogeny, Adaptive Radiation, and Historical Biogeography of Bromeliaceae Inferred from ndhF Sequence Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Cladistic analysis of ndhF sequences identifies eight major bromeliad clades arranged in ladderlike fashion. The traditional subfamilies Tillandsioideae and Bromelioideae are monophyletic, but Pitcairnioideae are paraphyletic, requiring the description of
