What drives germination and seedling survival in an Afrotropical forest?

Hunting in otherwise intact tropical forests removes organisms from some trophic levels, which can change population and community dynamics at other levels. The preferred game species

Patterns of mtDNA variation reveal complex evolutionary history of a relict and endangered peat bog pine

Assessments of eco-evolutionary mechanisms that shape the genetic structure of populations are important to understand the influence of environmental changes on plant ecosystems.In recent

The eyebright species Euphrasia inopinata

AoB PLANTS

Phylogenetic relationships of two endemic eyebright species from the eastern European Alps

Mountain ranges host a considerable number of endemic species, which is considered to be the result of the complex origin of mountain ranges, shaped by geographic

Dwarf shrubs from the Tibetan Plateau yield signals of past air moisture

How can you work out what the climate was like in the past, without having had someone take measurements? One solution is to look at tree

Floral colour structure in two Australian herbaceous communities

Pollinator-mediated interactions between plant species may affect the composition of angiosperm communities. Floral colour signals should play a role in these interactions, but the role

Erica plukenetii

annals-of-botany

An approach to determining anthocyanin synthesis enzyme gene expression in an evolutionary context

Floral colour in angiosperms can be controlled by variations in the expression of the genes of the anthocyanin pathway. Floral colour shifts influence pollinator specificity. Multiple

Salix purpurea

annals-of-botany

Joint linkage and association mapping of complex traits in shrub willow

Increasing energy demands and the necessity to reduce greenhouse gas emissions are key motivating factors driving the development of lignocellulosic crops as an alternative to non-

Photosynthetic acclimation of terrestrial and submerged leaves in the amphibious plant Hygrophila difformis

Generally, higher land plants do not grow under submerged conditions and aquatic plants cannot grow in terrestrial conditions. On the other hand, amphibious plants are able

Genome-wide association study reveals genomic regions controlling root and shoot traits at late growth stages in wheat

How much wheat do we need? One prediction is we need production to double between 2005 and 2050. This challenge is more difficult due to abiotic

The dependence of the species mean of the CV of plant ovule sizes on the ratio of the mean species seed size/mean species ovu

annals-of-botany

Ovule size variations and the relative sizes of ovules to seeds

Is there selection minimizing the costs of ovule production? Such selection should lead to a smaller ovule size in relation to seed size and, at the

Simulated seawater flooding reduces oilseed rape growth, yield and progeny performance

Of the many threats to global food security, one of the most pressing is the increased incidence of extreme weather events. In addition to extreme rainfall,
