How to correctly prune tropical trees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We present tropical games, a generalization of combinatorial min-max games based on tropical algebras. Our model breaks the traditional symmetry of rational zero-sum games where players have exactly opposed goals (min vs.

DIOECISM IN TROPICAL FOREST TREES [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution, 1975
The existence of dioecism among angiosperms is universally acknowledged, yet is poorly understood both from the ecological and evolutionary points of view. The reason for this hiatus might be that some have believed the relative proportion of dioecious taxa to be low (Yamplosky and Yamplosky, 1922; Lewis, 1942), while others have felt that since the ...

Tropical Geometric Variation of Tree Shapes

open access: yesDiscrete & Computational Geometry, 2022
AbstractWe study the behavior of phylogenetic tree shapes in the tropical geometric interpretation of tree space. Tree shapes are formally referred to as tree topologies; a tree topology can also be thought of as a tree combinatorial type, which is given by the tree’s branching configuration and leaf labeling.

Lipid metabolism and antioxidant system contribute to salinity tolerance in halophytic grass seashore paspalum in a tissue-specific manner

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2023
Soil salinization is a growing issue that limits agriculture globally. Understanding the mechanism underlying salt tolerance in halophytic grasses can provide new insights into engineering plant salinity tolerance in glycophytic plants. Seashore paspalum

Food plant diversity determines home range area and formation of a new family group of the world’s rarest primate

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Global primates are endangered, and thus it is important to know the determinants of primate population dynamics. It is widely reported that food plant diversity and nutrients are key determinants of many primate population dynamics.

Transcriptome analysis of genes involved in flower and leaf color of Oncidium by RNA-seq

open access: yesActa Scientiarum Polonorum: Hortorum Cultus, 2023
Oncidium, an important tropical orchid, has high ornamental value due to its specific color and occupies a significant market position for the worldwide flower. Transcriptome analysis of flower and leaf color formation provides new sources for producing

Parametric shortest-path algorithms via tropical geometry

open access: yes, 2021
We study parameterized versions of classical algorithms for computing shortest-path trees. This is most easily expressed in terms of tropical geometry.

Grazing alters species relative abundance by affecting plant functional traits in a Tibetan subalpine meadow

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Domestic livestock grazing has caused dramatic changes in plant community composition across the globe. However, the response of plant species abundance in communities subject to grazing has not often been investigated through a functional lens ...

Genome-wide analysis of tandem duplicated genes and their expression under salt stress in seashore paspalum

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Seashore paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum) is a halophytic, warm-season grass which is closely related to various grain crops. Gene duplication plays an important role in plant evolution, conferring significant plant adaptation at the genomic level. Here, we
