Changes in plant flammability‐related traits to fire regime characteristics and biomass conditions in the Cerrado

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
(A) Plant flammability‐related traits according to fire frequency and fire history in open savannas of the Cerrado. (B) The relationships between biomass conditions with flammability components. Abstract Premise Flammability‐related traits in open savanna plant communities may shift in response to fire frequency (high vs. low) and history (recently vs.

Fires in rainforests: Quantifying litter bed flammability of cool temperate rainforests in eastern Australia

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Rainforests are usually too wet to burn, acting as natural barriers to fire spread and as refuges for biodiversity. However, climate change is increasing the risk of fire incursion into rainforests. Our capacity to manage these impacts is hindered by limited research on rainforest flammability.

Toward a functional understanding of novel fire regimes in tropical forests

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change and land‐use alterations are driving forest fires to unprecedented frequencies and intensities worldwide. Even wet tropical forests—historically rarely subjected to fire—are increasingly experiencing fire disturbances. The impact of wildfires on these forests is likely large, since many of their tree species are not adapted to ...

Floral specialization for beetle pollination and its implications for pollen dispersal in an African orchid

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Pollination by beetles is relatively rare in orchids, and this has been attributed to the clumsy behavior of beetles being unsuitable for the precise pollen transfer mechanisms that characterize the orchid family. We investigated floral specialization for beetle pollination in the rare fire‐dependent South African orchid Disa elegans ...
