Going below ground: how some of the diversity in plant root morphology arose
A major transition in plant growth habit may have driven evolution of certain root traits
When weather becomes less predictable, so do reproductive traits
Both within a plant and within a population, trait variability increases with unpredictable precipitation.
From computer to field: can in silico modelling can help us to optimise rice for possible droughts?
Advances in computational models may allow us to quickly predict responses of important food crops to environmental stresses in the field, and to identify the genetic basis of these.
Going nuts: simulating macadamia’s carbon allocation in Australia
Study proposes a new computer model for simulating macadamia tree carbon allocation.
Is age just a number if you’re a plant? How plant responses to the environment change with age
Trait sensitivity to the environment is most visible during earlier stages of development, after which intraspecific trait variation and relationships may stabilize.
Higher cytokinin levels give Dutch tomatoes an edge
Greater secondary xylem development in Dutch cultivars may be the source of their lead over Japanese cultivars in fresh fruit weight.
Positions matter: drones using nadir and oblique photography on maize fields
Study reveals that more detailed 3D point clouds can be produced using oblique photography.
