A Range-Expanding Shrub Species Alters Plant Phenological Response to Experimental Warming
Shifts in plant species phenology (the timing of life-history events such as flowering) have been observed worldwide in concert with rising global temperatures. While most species display earlier phenology with warming, there is large variation among, and even within, species in phenological sensitivity to rising temperatures. Other indirect effects of climate change, such as shifting species c...
متن کاملEcosystem-level consequences of symbiont partnerships in an N-fixing shrub from interior Alaskan floodplains
In long-lived N-fixing plants, environmental conditions affecting plant growth and N demand vary at multiple temporal and spatial scales, and symbiont assemblages on a given host and patterns of allocation to nodule activities have been shown to vary according to environmental factors, suggesting that hosts may alter partner choice and manipulate symbiont assemblages based on shifting plant nee...
متن کاملPatterns of shrub expansion in Alaskan arctic river corridors suggest phase transition
Recent increases in deciduous shrub cover are a primary focus of terrestrial Arctic research. This study examined the historic spatial patterns of shrub expansion on the North Slope of Alaska to determine the potential for a phase transition from tundra to shrubland. We examined the historic variability of landscape-scale tall shrub expansion patterns on nine sites within river valleys in the B...

متن کاملARC syndrome: an expanding range of phenotypes
Aim—To describe the clinical phenotype in infants with ARC syndrome, the association of arthrogryposis, renal tubular acidosis, and cholestasis. Methods—The medical records for six patients with ARC syndrome were reviewed, presenting over 10 years to three paediatric referral centres. Results—All patients had the typical pattern of arthrogryposis. Renal Fanconi syndrome was present in all but o...
