Unraveling Amazon tree community assembly using Maximum Information Entropy: a quantitative analysis of tropical forest ecology.
In a time of rapid global change, the question of what determines patterns in species abundance distribution remains a priority for understanding the complex dynamics of ecosystems. The constrained maximization of information entropy provides a framework for the understanding of such complex systems dynamics by a quantitative analysis of important... -

UVR8‐TCP4‐LOX2 module regulates UV‐B tolerance in Arabidopsis.
The phytohormone jasmonate (JA) coordinates stress and growth responses to increase plant survival in unfavorable environments. Although JA can enhance plant UV‐B stress tolerance, the mechanisms underlying the interaction of UV‐B and JA in this response remain unknown. In this study, we demonstrate that the UV RESISTANCE LOCUS 8 ‐...Li, Cheng ; Du, Jiancan ; Xu, Huini ; Feng, Zhenhua ; Chater, Caspar C. C. …

Keetia nodulosa sp. nov. (Rubiaceae - Vanguerieae) of West-Central Africa: bacterial leaf nodulation discovered in a fourth genus and tribe of Rubiaceae.
Keetia nodulosa Cheek, a cloud forest climber nearly endemic to Cameroon, with a single record from Nigeria, is described and illustrated. It is remarkable as the first known species to be recorded with bacterial leaf nodules (BLN) in the genus Keetia, and also, in the tribe Vanguerieae. Other genera in... -

Geographic distribution and conservation status of the endemic cactus Austrocylindropuntia pachypus and new records for southern Peru.
Austrocylindropuntia pachypus (K.Schum.) Backeb. it is an endemic cactus whose distribution was restricted to the western slopes of La Libertad, Ancash, Lima; and based on botanical expeditions through the Andean foothills of Ica, new records are reported with reduced populations of A. pachypus, which makes it possible to extend its... -
