Analysis of phenotypic plasticity in response to water constraints in coffee plants growing under field conditions [PDF]
In a context of climate change, adaptation of perennial plantations to water constraints becomes a major concern for wood and fruit productivity. Adaptation depends on the level of genetic diversity in breeding and natural populations, as well as their ...

Weak whole‐plant trait coordination in a seasonally dry South American stressful environment
A core question involving both plant physiology and community ecology is whether traits from different organs are coordinated across species, beyond pairwise trait correlations. The strength of within‐community trait coordination has been hypothesized to

Croceous glands in Polygala adenophora (Polygalaceae): structure, histochemical, and functional aspects [PDF]
Croceous glands are visible structures defined by their rounded shape and yellowish color. They have great taxonomic importance, being used to delimit the Timutua section, one of the 14 sections of the subgenera Polygala, genera Polygala, the most ...

Characteristics of C-4 photosynthesis in stems and petioles of C-3 flowering plants [PDF]
Most plants are known as C-3 plants because the first product of photosynthetic CO2 fixation is a three-carbon compound. C-4 plants, which use an alternative pathway in which the first product is a four-carbon compound, have evolved independently many ...

Lithium alters elicitor-induced H2O2 production in cultured plant cells
Lithium pollution may seriously influence the metabolic and signalling processes of plants. In the present paper, we investigate the effect of lithium chloride on fungal elicitor-triggered H2O2 generation in Rubia tinctorum L. cell cultures.

Intensity of Vascular Streak Dieback in Different Cocoa Clones and Various Agro-climatic Conditions [PDF]
Vascular streak dieback (VSD) is one of the main diseases on cocoa. This disease can produce a heavy damage in susceptible plants. Agro-climatic condition influences the VSD disease severity level.
