DOI: 10.1080/1343943x.2017.1398050
Abstract: Abstract C4 plants show higher photosynthetic capacity and resource use efficiency than C3 plants. However, the genetic variations of these traits and their regulatory factors in C4 plants still remain to be resolved. We investigated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/aob/mcx015
Abstract: Background and Aims The capitulum of Helichrysum bracteatum is surrounded by scarious involucral bracts that perform hygroscopic movements leading to bract bending toward or away from the capitulum, depending on cell wall water status. The… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/icb/icac066
Abstract: Phenotypic diversity is influenced by physical laws that govern how an organism's morphology relates to functional performance. To study comparative organismal biology, we need to quantify this diversity using biological traits (definable aspects of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/plants8040085
Abstract: Elevated tropospheric ozone concentration (O3) increases oxidative stress in vegetation and threatens the stability of crop production. Current O3 pollution in the United States is estimated to decrease the yields of maize (Zea mays) up… read more here.
