Mechanism of Dietary Variation of Grazing Yaks on Tibetan Plateau: The Role of Seasonal Heterogeneity of Resources [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Using DNA metabarcoding, we show that Tibetan yaks are highly selective foragers in the resource‐rich summer but switch to a diverse, generalist diet to survive the harsh winter. This flexible foraging strategy is driven by seasonal plant availability, providing strong support for optimal foraging theory and highlighting the critical need to protect ...

Genome‐wide Identification and expression analysis of TOR signaling pathway components in apple in response to low nitrogen [PDF]

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Target of rapamycin (TOR) is an evolutionarily conserved serine/threonine kinase that plays a central role in regulating biological growth, development, and stress responses in eukaryotes. However, the TOR signaling pathway has not been thoroughly studied in apple (Malus domestica).

Characterization of quaternary ammonium compounds in Flourensia xerophytic communities and response to UV-B radiation [PDF]

, 2014
As part of ongoing studies aimed at characterizing molecular components involved in the ecophysiological adaptations of native xerophytic plants from central Argentina, we demonstrated the presence of compatible solutes in Flourensia campestris (FC) and ...

Mass Spectrometry Imaging‐Assisted Discovery of Gallotannin Biosynthetic Genes in the Root of Paeonia suffruticosa

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An integrated approach combining mass spectrometry imaging, transcriptomics, and phylogenetic analysis facilitated the efficient identification of genes involved in gallotannin biosynthesis in Paeonia suffruticosa. As a result, a key UGT and several SCPL acyltransferases responsible for biosynthesizing pentagalloylglucose were successfully identified ...

Biological control of Rubus alceifolius (Rosaceae) in La Réunion Island (Indian Ocean): from investigations of the plant to the release of the biocontrol agent Cibdela janthina (Argidae) [PDF]

, 2011
The giant bramble (Rubus alceifolius Poir.: Rosaceae), native to Southeast Asia, is one of the most invasive plants in La Réunion. A ten year research program was launched in 1997 with three components: i) genetic diversity, ii) development strategy, and

Terzyme: a tool for identification and analysis of the plant terpenome. [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND: Terpenoid hydrocarbons represent the largest and most ancient group of phytochemicals, such that the entire chemical library of a plant is often referred to as its 'terpenome'.

Assessing the viability of genebanked seeds from rare, wild plants native to the United States using the D.E.A.D. paradigm

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Genebanks must maintain viable seeds for decades. Seeds that germinate are clearly alive, but some seeds, often from wild populations, do not germinate because they are dormant, empty, aged, or damaged (D.E.A.D.). This work evaluates the effects of D.E.A.D.

INDEPENDENT ORIGINATION OF FLORAL ZYGOMORPHY, A PREDICTED ADAPTIVE RESPONSE TO POLLINATORS: DEVELOPMENTAL AND GENETIC MECHANISMS [PDF]

, 2016
Observations of floral development indicate that floral organ initiation in pentapetalous flowers more commonly results in a medially positioned abaxial petal (MAB) than in a medially positioned adaxial petal (MAD), where the medial plane is defined by ...

Environmental heterogeneity and spatial variation mediates plant diversity and ecosystem stability in mountain ecosystems of the Mediterranean Andes

Ecography, EarlyView.
Globally, mountains are highly diverse ecosystems that serve as natural laboratories for testing ecological theories, while providing vital ecosystem services. Their biodiversity arises from the interaction between elevational gradients and topographic complexity, which generate strong variation in environmental conditions across short spatial scales ...

Distribution and diversity of exotic plant species in montane to alpine areas of Kosciuszko National Park [PDF]

, 2013
Diversity and distribution of exotic plant taxa in Kosciuszko National Park in south-eastern Australia were reviewed based on 1103 records of exotics from 18 vegetation surveys conducted between 1986 and 2004.
