DOI: 10.1002/ece3.10839
Abstract: Abstract Naturalistic plantings, such as meadow‐style plantings, can improve the quality of urban green spaces through aesthetic, biodiversity and low maintenance features. Species selection for, and maintenance of naturalistic plantings are key to their success.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.4509
Abstract: Seasonal variations in foliar nutrient concentrations are an important strategy of plants to adapt to different climates and availabilities of soil nutrients. Gaps in our knowledge, however, remain in both the seasonality of the concentrations… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00425-019-03315-y
Abstract: Exosomes in the secondary phloem and secondary xylem of angiosperms and gymnosperms have physiological roles in the storage and transport of endoglucanases. Knowledge of plant extracellular vesicles (EVs) is limited by their presence in the… read more here.

Growth plasticity in response to shading as a potential key to the evolution of angiosperm herbs
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Plant Ecology"
DOI: 10.1007/s11258-021-01113-9
Abstract: In angiosperms, herbs evolved from ancestral woody growth form. A number of hypotheses on what was the driver of their evolution have been proposed, but none of them has received clear support so far. We… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.gecco.2021.e01852
Abstract: Abstract Belowground assemblages are closely related to the aboveground vegetation and edaphic properties, which are also driven by dominant plants due to direct and indirect influences. However, the effects of dominant woody plants on the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.landurbplan.2017.02.003
Abstract: Abstract Urban vegetation is influenced by prior land use due to the dynamic nature of urban landscape. However, limited information is available on how strongly the land-use legacy impacts the diversity of urban vegetation, especially… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.orggeochem.2019.01.006
Abstract: Abstract Sedimentary plant waxes and their hydrogen and carbon (δ2H and δ13C) isotopes are important proxies for past hydrologic and vegetation change. However sedimentary waxes accumulate from diverse sources, integrating uncertainties from: (i) variable isotope… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0266467423000123
Abstract: Abstract A trade-off between structural and chemical defences against herbivory in woody plants is alleged to depend on edaphic factors in African savannas. We studied anti-herbivory traits, in an edaphic mosaic of fertile and infertile… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-02098-0
Abstract: Evergreen broadleaved woody plants (EBWPs) are dominant components in forests and savanna of the global tropic and subtropic regions. Southern China possesses the largest continuous area of subtropical EBWPs distribution, harboring a high proportion of… read more here.

The extrafloral nectary traits of woody plants in Brazil’s Caatinga: describing an ecological spectrum
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Biological Journal of the Linnean Society"
DOI: 10.1093/biolinnean/blae090
Abstract: Plants use extrafloral nectaries (EFNs) as indirect defence mechanisms against herbivores. These structures contain nectar that is offered to ants in exchange for their protection. EFNs display pronounced functional variation, but it is unknown how… read more here.
