Early evolutionary history of the seed
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The seed is an essential stage in the life history of gymnospermous and angiospermous plants, facilitating both their survival and dispersal. We reappraise knowledge of the evolutionary history of the gymnospermous seed, from its origin in the late Devonian through to the well‐known end‐Permian extinctions – an interval encompassing the ...

Spatial metrics in fire ecology: seeking consistency amidst complexity
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Technological advances, including remote sensing, have led to a proliferation of metrics used in ecological studies to examine spatial patterns of fire regimes and their ecological effects. Researchers can use many different metrics to analyse spatial variation in both fire events and resulting fire regimes, including fire size, shape ...

Growth of an invasive plant species on tree bark
, 2017 An invasive plant species was observed to grow extensively on tree bark of trees in Singapore. This preprint presents a couple of photographs documenting the characteristics growth behaviour of this invasive plant species. Specifically, vertical strands of hair-like structures were seen dangling from the entire tree bark, and the bark surface was seen ...

Variation in stem bark conductance to water vapor in Neotropical plant species
Frontiers in Forests and Global ChangeBark conductance to water vapor (gbark) is an important determinant of drought tolerance in tropical plants. Examining species differences in bark conductance can provide useful information about the resilience of tropical trees to ongoing climate change.
