Fine-scale mating patterns in a clonal plant species
Spatial spread of genetically identical plants may decrease paternal diversity and fertility, particularly towards the centre of large clumps of clones.

Chromosome evolution in marginal Aegilops speltoides populations (Review)
Genome restructuring is an ongoing process in natural plant populations and the influence of environmental changes on the genome is crucial.

PEP-CK recruitment in C4 photosynthesis of eudicots
There is emerging evidence that some C4 eudicots involve the photosynthetic enzyme PEP-CK in carbon acquisition alongside other decarboxylation enzymes.

Critical buckling height and stand variation in Pinus
Although elastic similarity models and determinations of critical buckling height often consider density-specific stiffness to be constant, few studies have tested this assumption in plantation-grown trees.

Visualization of embolism formation using cold neutron radiography
Formation and repair of xylem embolism are of great importance for plant water relations, but are not easy to monitor. Tötzke et al. examine intact and

Evolution and speciation in Sorbus
Interspecific hybridization and polyploidy are key processes in plant evolution and are responsible for ongoing genetic diversification in the genus Sorbus (Rosaceae). Ludwig et al. study
