The majority of available data on phytohormone profiles and metabolism concerns vascular plants. Žižková et al. monitor the mechanisms by which two main groups of phytohormones,

Rice (Oryza sativa) can germinate and emerge from anoxic, flooded soils. Salinity, however, compromises seedling establishment. Kurniasih et al. assess the energy requirements for ion regulation

Terrestrial plant remains in fossilised tree resin are relatively common. However, histology and preservation of plants entombed in Cretaceous ambers remain poorly known. In this paper,

The Janzen–Connell model predicts that common species suffer high seed predation from specialized natural enemies as a function of distance from parent trees, and consequently

Polyploidization and apomixis contribute to taxonomic complexity in Anthosachne, a perennial genus native to Australia in the wheat tribe. Sha et al. performed a phylogenetic analysis

Polyploidization plays a critical role in plant evolution. The majority of neopolyploids do not become established, either because they have fewer potential mates, or may not

Competition for pollination can occur between sympatric plant species sharing pollinators, but can be minimized if each plant species places pollen on different areas of the

In moss-dominated regions of the Western Antarctic Peninsula, dramatic climate features have profoundly impacted moss biology and terrestrial ecology. In a study focused on the
