Freezing-related CO2 bursts reduce winter embolism
Results indicate that not all gases dissolved in the xylem sap are trapped within the ice in the stem of Scots pine and Norway spruce, during freezing.
Flooding and floral variation in a clonal aquatic plant
A report of variation in morph frequencies and floral traits in the tristylous clonal aquatic Eichhornia azurea in the Pantanal wetlands of Brazil.
Tensile properties of bamboo responsible for its mechanical performance
A study of the mechanical properties of single fibres and tissue slices of stems of mature moso bamboo and latewood of spruce.
Molecular phylogenetics of the orchid Himantoglossum
The first comprehensive molecular phylogeny for Lizard orchids (Himantoglossum), sampling all known taxa across the whole distribution area of the genus.
Tandem-repeat dynamics in a chromosomally variable plant group

Enhancing the acid-soil tolerance of durum wheat
A fragment of the 4D chromosome containing TaALMT1, introgressed into an elite durum cultivar, shows that the fragment enhances root growth in acid soil.
Stem extension and mechanical stability in Xanthium
Tissue stiffness and strength play crucial roles in maintaining stability in herbaceous species that lack the capacity for secondary growth.
Temporal variation in gender in an annual plant
The widespread tendency towards declining fruit set from first to last flowers on plants may contribute to temporal variation in allocation optima.
Past climate change and population structure of Miscanthus
Miscanthus ornamental cultivars originate almost exclusively from southern Japan, & many marketed as M. sinensis have hybrid ancestry from M. sacchariflorus
