Societal Impact Statement Advancements in our ability to rapidly detect plant responses to
stress are necessary to improve crop management practices and meet the global challenge …

Leaf reflectance spectroscopy is emerging as an effective tool for assessing plant diversity
and function. However, the ability of leaf spectra to detect fine‐scale plant evolutionary …

The chloroplast is one of two organelles containing a separate genome that codes for
essential and distinct cellular functions such as photosynthesis. Given the importance of …

Hyperspectral reflectance contains valuable information about leaf functional traits, which
can indicate a plant's physiological status. Therefore, using hyperspectral reflectance for …

Advancements in techniques to rapidly and non-destructively detect the impact of
tropospheric ozone (O3) on crops are required. This study demonstrates the capability of full …

Imaging spectroscopy has the potential to map closely related plant taxa at landscape
scales. Although spectral investigations at the leaf and canopy levels have revealed …

Maintaining and planting sustainable forests is fundamental in perpetuating the essential
functions of these ecosystems. A central aspect of managing forests for future resilience is …

Speciation, the continuous process by which new species form, is often investigated by
looking at the variation of nucleotide diversity and differentiation across the genome …

When related species are distributed in sympatric populations, hybridization may occur.
Likewise, one or more of these species may have arisen through historical hybridization …
