Testing key tenets of pyro‐ecophysiology: Indicators of drought response in relation to shoot flammability

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Relationships between flammability and drought tolerance influence vegetation dynamics during fires. A goal of the emerging subdiscipline of pyro‐ecophysiology is to identify ecophysiological traits that determine live fuel flammability, but empirical studies of these relationships are rare.

Advancing phylogenomics in Amaranthaceae sensu stricto: Development and application of a new nuclear target enrichment bait set

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Current phylogenies of Amaranthaceae sensu stricto (s.s.) are inadequately sampled and resolved to reflect the entire evolutionary history of the lineage, which is likely complex due to at least three whole‐genome duplication events, occasionally followed by subsequent additional polyploidization events and rapid diversification of ...

Morphological diversity of saber‐tooth upper canines and its functional implications

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Elongated upper canine teeth, commonly known as saber‐teeth, have evolved three times within the sub‐order Feliformia. The species that wielded them flourished throughout the Cenozoic and have historically been separated into two morphological groups: the dirk‐tooths with longer, flatter canines, and the scimitar‐tooths with shorter, serrated ...

Hypercanines: Not just for sabertooths

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Hypercanines are here defined as hypertrophied caniniform teeth, that is, canine teeth that are elongated to serve specific functions in different clades of mammals and their synapsid ancestors. This article presents an overview of the occurrence of hypercanines, their growth, and their function across a broad range of clades.
