Island floras are not necessarily more species poor than continental ones
Oceanic islands typically exhibit a lower number of species per unit area than continents owing to their geographical isolation (MacArthur & Wilson, 1967). This relationship demonstrates a remarkable consistency across spatial and taxonomic scales (MacArthur & Wilson, 1967) and has significant evolutionary consequences because island organisms are expected to respond to the empty niche space th...
متن کاملAre hybrid species more fit than ancestral parent species in the current hybrid species habitats?
Hybrid speciation is thought to be facilitated by escape of early generation hybrids into new habitats, subsequent environmental selection and adaptation. Here, we ask whether two homoploid hybrid plant species (Helianthus anomalus, H. deserticola) diverged sufficiently from their ancestral parent species (H. annuus, H. petiolaris) during hybrid speciation so that they are more fit than the par...
متن کاملGrowth and physiological responses of isohydric and anisohydric poplars to drought
Understanding how different plants prioritize carbon gain and drought vulnerability under a variable water supply is important for predicting which trees will maximize woody biomass production under different environmental conditions. Here, Populus balsamifera (BS, isohydric genotype), P. simonii (SI, previously uncharacterized stomatal behaviour), and their cross, P. balsamifera x simonii (BSx...
متن کاملProtein–Protein Interactions More Conserved within Species than across Species
Experimental high-throughput studies of protein-protein interactions are beginning to provide enough data for comprehensive computational studies. Today, about ten large data sets, each with thousands of interacting pairs, coarsely sample the interactions in fly, human, worm, and yeast. Another about 55,000 pairs of interacting proteins have been identified by more careful, detailed biochemical...
متن کاملMechanisms of plant survival and mortality during drought: why do some plants survive while others succumb to drought?
Severe droughts have been associated with regional-scale forest mortality worldwide. Climate change is expected to exacerbate regional mortality events; however, prediction remains difficult because the physiological mechanisms underlying drought survival and mortality are poorly understood. We developed a hydraulically based theory considering carbon balance and insect resistance that allowed ...
