Elicitor Specific Mechanisms of Defence Priming in Oak Seedlings Against Powdery Mildew

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Defence priming sensitises plant defences to enable a faster and/or stronger response to subsequent stress. Various chemicals can trigger priming; however, the response remains unexplored in oak. Here, we characterise salicylic acid (SA)‐, jasmonic acid (JA)‐, and β‐aminobutyric acid (BABA)‐induced priming of oak seedlings against the causal ...

Intraspecific trait variability in wild plant populations predicts neither variability nor performance in a common garden

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Dryland restoration requires plant materials capable of performing well despite difficult growing conditions. Selecting plant materials with higher intraspecific trait variability (ITV) may support successful outcomes by enhancing the performance of those materials in restoration settings.
