Cadmium translocation by contractile roots
Contractile roots require specific anatomical adaptation of the root base, with less-lignified & less-suberized tissues than in the subapical root.
The cost–benefit model for botanical carnivory
This study concludes that traps have lower rates of photosynthesis than leaves, and that leaves have higher rates of photosynthesis after feeding.
Leaf evolution in early-diverging ferns
A novel fernlike taxon, Shougangia bella, is identified from the Late Devonian that has laminate leaves on higher orders of vegetative and fertile branches.
Floral colour evolution in Nicotiana polyploids
Do floral colour shifts accompany allopolyploidy (interspecific hybridization and genome multiplication) in the genus Nicotiana (Solanaceae)?
Theoretical approach to predicting petal wettability
This model predicts petal surface wettability by considering the additive effects of the geometries of the epidermal cells and the structured cuticle.
High molecular diversity in rare European Sorbus domestica
Unexpectedly high levels of molecular diversity are found within populations of Sorbus domestica, irrespective of their location.
Pollen dispersal and breeding structure in Petunia
Results show that most pollen dispersal in subsp. axillaris occurs within populations and there is a high proportion of inbreeding.
Defoliation, tree growth and storage of C and N
Although lenga beech trees, completely defoliated by caterpillars of Ormiscodes amphimone, do not die, they show reduced growth for at least 2 years.
Chilling tolerance of C4 photosynthesis in Miscanthus
A study finds relatives of Miscanthus ×giganteus with significantly superior capacity for photosynthesis at chilling temperatures for the first time.
