Cranial ecomorphology of turtles and neck retraction as a possible trigger of ecological diversification. [PDF]
Evolution, 2022 Abstract Turtles have a highly modified body plan, including a rigid shell that constrains postcranial anatomy. Skull morphology and neck mobility may therefore be key to ecological specialization in turtles. However, the ecological signal of turtle skull morphologies has not been rigorously evaluated, leaving uncertainties about the roles of ...

Update of the Xylella spp. host plant database – systematic literature search up to 30 June 2023
EFSA Journal, Volume 21, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023 Abstract This scientific report provides an update of the Xylella spp. host plant database, aiming to provide information and scientific support to risk assessors, risk managers and researchers dealing with Xylella spp. Upon a mandate of the European Commission, EFSA created and regularly updates a database of host plant species of Xylella spp.

American Journal of Botany, Volume 110, Issue 10, October 2023., 2023 Abstract Premise Alismataceae, a sub‐cosmopolitan family with ca. 17 genera and 113 species, is a large group of aquatic plants. Compression/impressions and bioinclusions of reproductive parts in amber support the documentation of the lineage in low‐latitude North America. In Mexico, fossil aquatic plants have been infrequently documented.

The dynamic multi‐functionality of leaf water transport outside the xylem
New Phytologist, Volume 239, Issue 6, Page 2099-2107, September 2023., 2023 Summary A surge of papers have reported low leaf vulnerability to xylem embolism during drought. Here, we focus on the less studied, and more sensitive, outside‐xylem leaf hydraulic responses to multiple internal and external conditions. Studies of 34 species have resolved substantial vulnerability to dehydration of the outside‐xylem pathways, and ...

Extending the elemental defence hypothesis in the light of plant chemodiversity
New Phytologist, Volume 239, Issue 5, Page 1545-1555, September 2023., 2023 Summary Some plant species tolerate and accumulate high levels of metals or metalloids in their tissues. The elemental defence hypothesis posits that metal(loid) hyperaccumulation by these plants can serve as protection against antagonists. Numerous studies support this hypothesis.

New Phytologist, Volume 233, Issue 4, Page 1657-1666, February 2022., 2022 Summary The prevalence of local adaptation and phenotypic plasticity among populations is critical to accurately predicting when and where climate change impacts will occur. Currently, comparisons of thermal performance between populations are untested for most marine species or overlooked by models predicting the thermal sensitivity of species to ...

The rice foot rot pathogen Dickeya zeae alters the in‐field plant microbiome
Environmental Microbiology, Volume 23, Issue 12, Page 7671-7687, December 2021., 2021 Summary Studies on bacterial plant diseases have thus far been focused on the single bacterial species causing the disease, with very little attention given to the many other microorganisms present in the microbiome. This study intends to use pathobiome analysis of the rice foot rot disease, caused by Dickeya zeae, as a case study to investigate the ...

Modelagem otimizada de indicadores biológicos de qualidade da água [PDF]
Revista DAE, 2020 O estudo de plantas aquáticas (macrófitas) é importante, uma vez que essas plantas apresentam potencial de utilização em estudos de ecotoxicologia, como bioindicadores no tratamento de águas residuárias.
