The ontogenetic dimension of plant functional ecology

Functional Ecology, 2023
Plant functional strategies change considerably as plants develop, driven by intraindividual variability in anatomical, morphological, physiological and architectural traits.

Plant ecology: Macroparasitism in plant communities

Current Biology, 2021
Mistletoes, lianas, vines, and epiphytes fulfill many of the population dynamic criteria of animal macroparasites. A new study illustrates elegant ways to quantify cost to the host and how this impacts competition between mistletoe species. It opens the door to a much fuller consideration of plant parasites as macroparasites.

Plant ecology of tropical and subtropical karst ecosystems

Biotropica, 2019
Substantial areas of tropical forests, including those within nine tropical biodiversity hotspots, contain karst landscapes that have developed on soluble carbonate rocks.

Molecular ecology of plant volatiles in interactions with insect herbivores.

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2021
Plant-derived volatile organic compounds (VOCs) play pivotal roles in interactions with insect herbivores. Individual VOCs can be directly toxic or deterrent, serve as signal molecules to attract natural enemies, and/or be perceived by distal plant ...

Plant evolutionary ecology

New Phytologist, 2004
The concept of plant venereal disease is examined from definitional, operational and axiomatic viewpoints. The transmission of many plant pathogens occurs during the flowering phase and is effected either by pollinators or by wind dispersal of spores from inflorescences. Attraction of insects by pseudo-flowers or sugary secretions also serves to spread

The ecology of amphicarpic plants

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1987
Amphicarpic plants, which produce both aerial and subterranean flowers and seeds, provide evolutionary ecologists with insight into the evolution of breeding systems involving self-fertilization, seed dimorphisms and multiple dispersal strategies. The subterranean flowers of amphicarpic species do not open, are self-fertile, and produce large seeds ...

A simulation in plant ecology

Proceedings of the April 30--May 2, 1968, spring joint computer conference on - AFIPS '68 (Spring), 1968
The purpose of this paper is to present some results from a preliminary study investigating the application of the computer sciences to problems in plant ecology. Results include a model which simulates the growth of a forest in a particular time dependent environment and an implementation of that model using a digital computer and assumed data.

Roots in plant ecology

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1986
In 1727 the pioneer vegetation scientist Stephen Hales realized that I much that was of importance to his subject material took place below on ground. A good deal of descriptive work on plant roots and root systems was done in the subsequent two centuries; in crop plants especially, the gross morphology of root systems was well known by the early 20th ...

The ecological risks of transgenic plants.

Rivista di biologia, 2003
Biotechnologies have been utilized "ante litteram" for thousands of years to produce food and drink and genetic engineering techniques have been widely applied to produce many compounds for human use, from insulin to other medicines. The debate on genetically modified (GM) organisms broke out all over the world only when GM crops were released into the
