Canalized to heat, plastic to cold: adaptive coordination of leaf and seed strategies in populations spanning an elevational gradient

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary In tropical mountains, surviving temperature extremes demands finely tuned strategies. We investigated how populations of the bromeliad Pitcairnia flammea across a 2200 m elevational gradient balance genetic canalization and plasticity, and whether thermal strategies are coordinated between seeds and leaves.

OrchidMD: An Integrated and User‐Interactive Orchid Multi‐Omics Database for Mining Genes and Biological Research

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Orchidaceae family, with its unparalleled species diversity among angiosperms, is integral to ornamental, medicinal, cultural, and ecological value. Multi‐omics techniques have proven invaluable for the identification of candidate genes and the advancement of functional genomics research. Nevertheless, the application of these technologies

Thermal Safety Margins and Peak Leaf Temperatures Predict Vulnerability of Diverse Plant Species to an Experimental Heatwave

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extreme heat can push plants beyond their thermal safety margin (TSM) if maximum leaf temperature (Tleaf_max) exceeds leaf critical temperature (Tcrit). The TSM is potentially useful for assessing heat vulnerability across species but needs further validation, so we exposed 50 tree/shrub species in controlled glasshouses to a 6‐day heatwave ...

Leaf Length Predicts Twig Xylem Vessel Diameter Across Angiosperms

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As plants grow taller, increasing conductive pathlength imposes hydraulic resistance, challenging the maintenance of water transport to leaves. While tip‐to‐base conduit widening along the stem helps mitigate this resistance, theoretical models and empirical data suggest that stem widening alone is insufficient to fully compensate.
