Evolution and function of Scots pine aminopropyltransferases

Vuosku and colleagues find an evolutionarily old gymnosperm, Scots pine, has a bifunctional SPDS able to produce both Spd and Spm, while angiosperms seem to depend on separate enzymes in Spd and Spm biosynthesis.

An orchid matches its scent emission rhythm to the local pollinators

Some flowers only smell at day and some only at night, but how did they evolve these different rhythms? In our study, we investigate if populations of the same orchid species that are more pollinated either at day or at night show different scent emission rhythms.

Intraspecific variability in specific leaf area and niche occupancy

How functional traits modify species niche occupancy and community assembly is a vital question in ecology. He et al. measure specific leaf area for over 5000 plants with more than 1700 observational locations.

Flexure wood is not a single tool for coping with wind strain

Investigating flexure wood, a new paper finds that the cells in a tree react to strain from wind differently depending on whether they are being stretched or compressed.
