Getting out in the sun can lead to better sex
What could make sex better for a plant? When it brings in new genes from other plants. And this is what happens when faba beans get heat stress.
Native plant responses to enhanced rainfall
The environmental and biotic context within which plants grow have a great potential to modify responses to climatic changes, yet few studies have addressed both the direct effects of climate and the modulating roles...
Winter warming delays dormancy release, advances budburst, alters carbohydrate metabolism and reduces yield in a temperate shrub
Global climate models predict an increase in the mean surface air temperature, with a disproportionate increase during winter. Since temperature is a major driver of phenological events in temperate woody perennials...
