Citizen science data reveals winter warming delays cherry bloom in the Pacific Northwest, USA

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Climate change is altering ecological systems, including the phenology of flowering plants. Shifts in the bloom date of cherry trees are a global concern considering their cultural, agricultural, and horticultural importance. Ornamental cherry is a prominent component of the University of Washington campus (Seattle, USA), providing an opportunity to ...

Wheat breeding approaches for designing wheat to thrive in a warmer world

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Wheat is a vital food crop, accounting for approximately 20% of daily calories and protein consumed worldwide. However, modern‐day wheat is under pressure from global change. The improvement rate of wheat yields is not keeping up with the demand of our growing population. Furthermore, abiotic and biotic stressors are becoming more prevalent. This paper

The pick of the plot: An evidence‐based approach for selecting and testing suitable plants to use in annual seed mixes to attract insect pollinators

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Concern regarding wild pollinator declines has increased motivation to plant pollinator‐friendly plants in gardens and urban areas, but ‘plants for pollinators’ recommendations are often anecdotal and inaccurate. Here, we use a scientific evidence base to design and test annual flowering seed mixes for bees and hoverflies.
