Elimination of FRDL1, a xylem‐located citrate transporter, confers tolerance to excess unchelated ferrous iron through an exclusion mechanism in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Knock‐down of a xylem‐localized citrate transporter, FRDL1, reduces foliar iron concentrations and leaf symptoms under excess ferrous iron stress in rice. Abstract Iron (Fe) toxicity is a common agricultural problem that limits rice yield in various regions of Southeast Asia and Africa.

Lipidomics of orchid seeds: from development to storage

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
The study tracked lipid changes from pollination to storage in two orchid species. Although both were desiccation‐tolerant and storable, differences in saturated and unsaturated fatty acid proportions during development led to different moisture contents and germination capacities.

Effects of crossing distance on components of fitness in two rare rock plants

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Crossing experiments between populations of the rare rock species Saxifraga rosacea ssp. rosacea (8×) and S. rosacea ssp. sponhemica (6×) resulted in heterosis for some traits and outbreeding depression for others. Crossing the two subspecies resulted in sterile hybrids indicating that mixing populations of rare species is not always beneficial ...

Fire frequency and timing influence bee–flower interactions: a case study from an oak‐pine savanna restoration on the Cumberland Plateau

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Native plant communities have declined in the southeastern United States over the past century because of habitat loss and fire suppression. While restoration of these communities often requires prescribed fire, the effects of fire on endemic insects remain unclear.

Cultivating diversity: is the functional diversity of nursery stocks sufficient for the establishment of functionally diverse restored woodlands?

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Ecological restoration projects often rely on nurseries (NU) to provide plants to restore ecological communities. However, the range of species available in NU may not represent the range of ecological function found in species in reference (natural) communities.
