Use of flying dragon trifoliate orange as dwarfing rootstock for citrus under tropical climatic conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Citrus fruit trees grown under tropical climatic conditions have a high level of vigor and, consequently, late fruit-bearing and low productivity. The use of Flying Dragon trifoliate orange [Poncirus trifoliata var.

The extent of trees in the tropics

open access: yes, 2022
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°

Soil nematode community assembly in a primary tropical lowland rainforest

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
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)

open access: yesGuangxi Zhiwu, 2023
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

open access: yesDiversity, 2021
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.

Effects of Lightning on Trees: A Predictive Model Based on in situ Electrical Resistivity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The effects of lightning on trees range from catastrophic death to the absence of observable damage. Such differences may be predictable among tree species, and more generally among plant life history strategies and growth forms.

The $m-$dissimilarity map and representation theory of $SL_m$ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We give another proof that $m$-dissimilarity vectors of weighted trees are points on the tropical Grassmanian, as conjectured by Cools, and proved by Giraldo in response to a question of Sturmfels and Pachter.

Sex Ratios in Tropical Forest Trees [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution, 1978
Sex ratios of dioecious plants often depart significantly from unity (Correns, 1922; Dzhapardize, 1967; Godley, 1964; Pauley and Mennel, 1957; Rathore, 1969). Explanations for these deviations have usually been sought in the genetics of sexdetermination (for a review see Westergaard, 1958; Lloyd, 1974).
