Hakea drought resistance determined by climate factors rather than functional traits

Cavitation resistance appears to be genetic, making it useful as a predictor of drought resistance.

Are a few, large seeds or many, small seeds a better strategy for a plant?

For the first time, estimates of comparative seed yield and number for over 800 annuals and their predictor equations have been produced and the ecological importance of these regenerative traits has been illustrated.

Where do halophytes grow? Influence of elevation, flooding, and salinity in a non-tidal saltmarsh

Unpredictability means that the traits needed to survive in seasonally flooded marshes are different to tidally flooded marshes.

Arabidopsis halleri: a model system for studying population differentiation and local adaptation

Whilst studies on Arabidopsis thaliana have generally been highly molecular and/or genetic in nature, most studies using A. halleri have addressed adaptation and variation in adaptive traits in the species’ natural habitat.

Modelling reveals how fire and water shape the life strategies of Pinus halepensis

Is it better to grow fast, or to grow slowly and invest in the future? Structural Equation Modeling reveals that Pinus halepensis cannot decide.

    Excellent study. An additional flooding treatment could have revealed little more about this above-below ground trait relationship.
