Ecological variation in response to mass-flowering oilseed rape and surrounding landscape composition by members of a cryptic bumblebee complex
(Public Library of Science, 2013-06-19)
The Bombus sensu stricto species complex is a widespread group of cryptic bumblebee species which are important pollinators of many crops and wild plants. These cryptic species have, until now, largely been grouped together ...
Response of farmland biodiversity to the introduction of bioenergy crops: effects of local factors and surrounding landscape context
(Wiley Open Access, 2013-07-19)
The recent growth in bioenergy crop cultivation, stimulated by the need to implement measures to reduce net CO2 emissions, is driving major land-use changes with consequences for biodiversity and ecosystem service provision. ...
Ceratopteris richardii (C-Fern): a model for investigating adaptive modification of vascular plant cell walls
(Frontiers Media, 2013-09-23)
Plant cell walls are essential for most aspects of plant growth, development, and survival, including cell division, expansive cell growth, cell-cell communication, biomechanical properties, and stress responses. Therefore, ...
