A narrowly endemic photosynthetic orchid is non-specific in its mycorrhizal associations.
Mycorrhizal association is a common characteristic in a majority of land plants, and the survival and distribution of a species can depend on the distribution of suitable fungi in its habitat. Orchidaceae is one of the most species-rich angiosperm families, and all orchids are fully dependent on fungi for their seed germination and some also for subsequent growth and survival. Given this obliga...
متن کاملHow does propaganda influence the opinion dynamics of a population ?
The evolution of opinions in a population of individuals who constantly interact with a common source of user-generated content (i.e. the internet) and are also subject to propaganda is analyzed using computer simulations. The model is based on the bounded confidence approach. In the absence of propaganda, computer simulations show that the online population as a whole is either fragmented, pol...
متن کاملThe Influence of Synaptic Weight Distribution on Neuronal Population Dynamics
The manner in which different distributions of synaptic weights onto cortical neurons shape their spiking activity remains open. To characterize a homogeneous neuronal population, we use the master equation for generalized leaky integrate-and-fire neurons with shot-noise synapses. We develop fast semi-analytic numerical methods to solve this equation for either current or conductance synapses, ...
متن کاملHabitat-driven variation in mycorrhizal communities in the terrestrial orchid genus Dactylorhiza
Orchid species are critically dependent on mycorrhizal fungi for completion of their life cycle, particularly during the early stages of their development when nutritional resources are scarce. As such, orchid mycorrhizal fungi play an important role in the population dynamics, abundance, and spatial distribution of orchid species. However, less is known about the ecology and distribution of or...
متن کاملIntroduction: Biology of orchids and of orchid mycorrhizal interactions
With the nursery and garden center industry expanding, it is important to keep the consumer returning year after year for the newest, most exciting and most unusual species. Perennial nursery crops are one sector of the nursery market that has grown rapidly due to the addition of new species. Though orchids are not new to the horticultural trade, these fascinating plants have long been in the d...
