Mycorrhizal fungi and distribution of specialized orchids
The use of a widespread fungal operational taxonomic unit in P. deformis enables a broad distribution despite high mycorrhizal specificity.
Abscisic acid and seed development in a lady’s slipper orchid
Abscisic acid concentration and distribution during seed development of Cypripedium formosanum serves as the key inhibitor of germination.
Complexities of orchid seedling establishment (Viewpoint)
A better understanding of germination and seedling establishment is needed for the conservation of vulnerable or threatened orchid populations.
Polyphyletic relationships in Sorghum
Phylogenetic reconstruction techniques reveal evidence for a two-lineage polyphyletic ancestry of Sorghum within the larger Andropogoneae.
Transient dynamics improve population projections for orchids
A combined approach of asymptotic and transient dynamics expands the understanding of possible population changes for a rare epiphytic orchid.
Leaf movements and lunisolar gravitational force
A new perspective on the regulation of leaf-movement rhythms and synchronism between the times of the turning points of both the lunisolar tide and leaftide
Life cycle stage, flooding depth and adventitious root formation
This study finds that adventitious root formation is constrained in juvenile compared to mature plants, and is delayed by deep compared to shallow flooding.
Genome size, ploidy level and reproductive mode of Sorbus
The authors find that the coexistence of apomictic tetraploids and sexual diploids drives the production of novel polyploid cytotypes in S. austriaca.
Tree root density model for heterogeneous forest ecosystems
This study reveals a new model for predicting root density which focuses on the spatial distribution of root density at the tree cluster scale.
