Plant sexual systems correlated with morphological traits: Reflecting reproductive strategies of alpine plants [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, 2013
AbstractPlant sexual systems can be affected by various environmental factors, and thus show a range of morphological differences. The associations between plant sexual systems and morphology are unique, for example, the subnival belt of the Hengduan Mountains has harsh climatic conditions, but hosts remarkable biodiversity. However, these associations

Reproductive Ontogeny and the Evolution of Morphological Diversity in Conifers and Other Plants [PDF]

open access: yesIntegrative and Comparative Biology, 2019
AbstractBiologists often study morphological evolution through form and function relationships. But biological structures can perform multiple functional roles, complicating efforts to understand the evolutionary significance of any one relationship.

The Host-Plant Origin Affects the Morphological Traits and the Reproductive Behavior of the Aphid Parasitoid Aphelinus mali [PDF]

open access: yesAgronomy, 2021
Diversifying agroecosystems through habitat management inside or outside production fields can provide alternative hosts and/or prey for natural enemies. In semi-natural habitats, parasitoids may find alternative host-plant complexes (HPC) that could allow their development when pest hosts are scarce in the field.

Effects of sowing date on phenotypic plasticity of fitness-related traits in two annual weeds on the Songnen Plain of China. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Phenotypic plasticity of fitness-related traits is vital for plant species to adapt to variable environments. Chenopodium glaucum L. and Amaranthus retroflexus L. are two common weed species globally.

The Molecular Basis of Kale Domestication: Transcriptional Profiling of Developing Leaves Provides New Insights Into the Evolution of a Brassica oleracea Vegetative Morphotype

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Morphotypes of Brassica oleracea are the result of a dynamic interaction between genes that regulate the transition between vegetative and reproductive stages and those that regulate leaf morphology and plant architecture.
