Plant ecology: Macroparasitism in plant communities
Current Biology, 2021Mistletoes, 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.

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, 1987Amphicarpic 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 ...

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 ...

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.

The ecological risks of transgenic plants.
Rivista di biologia, 2003Biotechnologies 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

The ecology of plant extinctions
Trends in Ecology & EvolutionExtinctions occur when enough individual plants die without replacement to extirpate a population, and all populations are extirpated. While the ultimate drivers of plant extinctions are known, the proximate mechanisms at individual and population level are not. The fossil record supports climate change as the major driver until recently, with land-use

Ecology is the study of the relationship between organisms and the environment and the interrelationships between organisms. The response of an organism to the environment is determined by the effects of the environment on the processes in the organism.
