The application of functional traits to predict and explain plant species' distributions and vital
rates has been a major direction in functional ecology for decades, yet numerous …

Plant architecture strongly influences ecological performance, yet its role in plant evolution
has not been explored in depth. By testing both phylogenetic and environmental signals, it is …

Since C4 photosynthesis was first discovered> 50 years ago, researchers have sought to
understand how this complex trait evolved from the ancestral C3 photosynthetic machinery …

Premise The use of DNA from herbarium specimens is an increasingly important source for
evolutionary studies in plant biology, particularly in cases where species are rare or difficult …

Asam borat biasa dikenal dengan asam boraks merupakan suatu monobasa dari asam
Lewis boron lemah yang dapat digunakan sebagai antiseptik, insektisida, penyangga pH …

Phylogenies recurrently demonstrate that oceanic island systems have been home to rapid
clade diversification and adaptive radiations. The existence of adaptive radiations posits a …

Dispersal events offer a unique window into macroevolutionary processes, especially with
respect to the effects of competition on diversification. Empirical studies testing alternative …

Societal Impact Statement C4 photosynthesis is an ultra‐efficient mode of photosynthesis
found in some of our most productive crop species yet is notably rare in trees. Given C4 …

Previous studies have demonstrated the ecological sorting of herbaceous C3 and C4
species along gradients of precipitation and temperature: C4 herbaceous species typically …

Premise Expanded phylogenetic analyses of the Hawaiian silversword alliance
(Argyroxiphium, Dubautia, Wilkesia; Compositae) were undertaken to assess evolutionary …
