Hidden in the town square: the first record of Tillandsia recurvata (L.) L. (Bromeliaceae) in Mato Grosso State, Brazil [PDF]
Hoehnea, 2023 Tillandsia recurvata (L.) L. is reported for the first time in the State of Mato Grosso, Brazil. A population of the species was found in the town square of the Chapada dos Guimarães municipality, growing in multiple phorophytes.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Full plastome sequences for land plants have become readily accessible thanks to the development of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) techniques and powerful bioinformatic tools. Despite this vast amount of genomic data, some lineages remain understudied.

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 32, Issue 9, Page 1607-1617, September 2023., 2023 Abstract Aim Angiosperm epiphytes have long been reported to have larger geographic ranges than terrestrial species, despite evidence of their outstanding diversity and endemism. This apparent contradiction calls for further investigation of epiphytes' poorly understood range size patterns. Here, we address the question of whether epiphytes have larger

Smoothing out the misconceptions of the role of bark roughness in vascular epiphyte attachment
New Phytologist, Volume 238, Issue 3, Page 983-994, May 2023., 2023 Summary Vascular epiphytes represent c. 10% of all vascular plant species. In epiphytes, attachment is essential for survival throughout consecutive ontogenetic stages of their life, starting with: (1) initial propagule attachment to the host; followed by (2) the development of first root‐substrate connections; and (3) maintenance of this attachment ...

Oikos, Volume 2023, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Heteroblastic variations among leaf traits is a well‐known process, especially in bromeliad species that show abrupt changes, but little effort was directed to test whether comparable ontogenetic variation occurs among root traits and their fungal partners.

Plants, 2020 Bromeliad scales have been investigated extensively due to their recognition as a key ecological and evolutionary feature of Bromeliaceae. However, much remains unknown about such trichomes and only recently mucilage exudation was described for them in a

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 22, Issue 3, Page 927-945, April 2022., 2022 Abstract Target capture has emerged as an important tool for phylogenetics and population genetics in nonmodel taxa. Whereas developing taxon‐specific capture probes requires sustained efforts, available universal kits may have a lower power to reconstruct relationships at shallow phylogenetic scales and within rapidly radiating clades. We present here

Putting vascular epiphytes on the traits map
Journal of Ecology, Volume 110, Issue 2, Page 340-358, February 2022., 2022 Our first global compilation of epiphyte trait data permits to test hypotheses how epiphytes differ from ground‐rooted plants and also shows systematic differences among epiphyte groups. We explore how different environmental constraints experienced by epiphytes shape individual traits and the trait coordination (Photo: Gunnar Petter).
