Direct and indirect fitness effects of plant metabolites, and genetic constraints, limit evolution of allelopathy in an invading plant

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 4, Page 806-823, April 2025.
Competition favours lower glucosinolate investment across 22 North American accessions of Alliaria petiolata (garlic mustard). Leaf glucosinolate concentration is highly plastic and correlated with leaf chlorophyll a concentration. Genotypes that invest more into glucosinolate production (i.e.

Spider communities in the aboveground oak forests of central Europe are determined by vertical scale: An important missing link for biodiversity conservation

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, Volume 186, Issue 3, Page 288-301, May 2025.
Abundance of spiders and species richness increased from the ground level to the canopy in oak forests. Spiders with some specific ecological traits in the sample (such as hunting strategy, dispersal ability, occurrence and light requirements) are specifically distributed in the vertical direction.

Genome-Wide association study for resistance to aerial propagation of leaf scald in sugarcane(Saccharum spp) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Leaf scald (LS) is a major sugarcane disease, resulting in cane loss and sugar yield decrease when growing susceptible cultivars. This disease is caused by a xylem invading bacterium, Xanthomonas albilineans (Xa), and is mainly transmitted by aerial ...

Validation and refinement of allometric equations for roots of northern hardwoods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The allometric equations developed by Whittaker et al. (1974. Ecol. Monogr. 44: 233–252), at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest have been used to estimate biomass and productivity in northern hardwood forest systems for over three decades.

Characterization of PIP2 aquaporins in Saccharum hybrids

open access: yesPlant Gene, 2016
AbstractAquaporins (AQPs) are proteins that facilitate the transport of water, small neutral solutes and gases across membranes and have an important role in plant physiology and drought stress responses. The sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) transcriptome was searched for AQPs, also known as major intrinsic proteins. Phylogenetic analysis based on nucleotide

Evolution and expression of the fructokinase gene family in Saccharum [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2017
Sugarcane is an important sugar crop contributing up to about 80% of the world sugar production. Efforts to characterize the genes involved in sugar metabolism at the molecular level are growing since increasing sugar content is a major goal in the breeding of new sugarcane varieties.

Advancements in ecological niche models for forest adaptation to climate change: a comprehensive review

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change poses significant challenges to the health and functions of forest ecosystems. Ecological niche models have emerged as crucial tools for understanding the impact of climate change on forests at the population, species, and ecosystem levels.

Leaf Optical Responses to Light and Soil Nutrient Availability in Temperature Deciduous Trees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Leaf optical parameters influence light availability at the cellular, leaf, and canopy scale of integration. While recent studies have focused on leaf optical responses to acute plant stress, the effects of changes in plant resources on leaf optics ...

Late-successional and old-growth forests in the northeastern United States: Structure, dynamics, and prospects for restoration. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Restoration of old-growth forest structure is an emerging silvicultural goal, especially in those regions where old-growth abundance falls below the historic range of variability.
