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.

How to Correctly Prune Tropical Trees [PDF]
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. max), is more widely applicable than min-max and also supports a form of pruning, despite it being less effective than alpha-beta ...

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

The extent of trees in the tropics
Abstract Remote sensing-based assessments of tree cover and extent provide insight into global and local land use planning. However, there remains considerable uncertainty about the extent of drylands forests and trees in areas with non-forest land use. Here, we present a 10-meter tree extent map for 4.35 billion hectares in the tropics (-23.44°

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

Soil nematode community assembly in a primary tropical lowland rainforest
More than half of the world's tropical lowland rainforests have been lost due to conversion to agricultural land (such as rubber plantations). Thus, ecological restoration in degraded tropical lowland rainforests is crucial. The first step to restoration

Style lateral bending and its pollination adaptation in Gyrocheilos (Gesneriaceae)
Gyrocheilos is a small genus of Gesneriaceae endemic to hight altitude mountains in Southwest China and Guangdong Province, with only five species. This genus is characterized by laterally bending style, which curves 90° at the top of the style and the ...

Genetic Divergence between Two Sympatric Ecotypes of Phalaenopsis pulcherrima on Hainan Island
Ecotypes are the result of ecological differentiation at the early stages of speciation. Adaptation to soil conditions offers arguably the best examples of local adaptation in plants.
