Plant Physiol Biochem
. 2025 Feb;
221:109617.
PMID: 39946909
One of the greatest threats to plant function and fitness is global warming, characterised by a combination of increased atmospheric CO concentrations and temperatures. However, their effects on plant physiology,...

J Exp Bot
. 2023 Nov;
75(5):1601-1614.
PMID: 37988617
Increasing evidence supports a major role for abiotic stress response in the success of plant polyploids, which usually thrive in harsh environments. However, understanding the ecophysiology of polyploids is challenging...

Mol Ecol
. 2023 Jul;
32(17):4777-4790.
PMID: 37452724
Whole-genome duplication has shaped the evolution of angiosperms and other organisms, and is important for many crops. Structural reorganization of chromosomes and repatterning of gene expression are frequently observed in...

Ecol Evol
. 2022 Dec;
12(12):e9613.
PMID: 36523522
Preserving the genetic diversity of forest species is critical for maintaining their adaptive potential and allowing for generation turnover in forest ecosystems. Considering an uncertain future, it is necessary to...

72(15):5522-5533.
PMID: 33909906
Whole-genome duplication and post-polyploidization genome downsizing play key roles in the evolution of land plants; however, the impact of genomic diploidization on functional traits still remains poorly understood. Using Dianthus...

Int J Mol Sci
. 2020 Dec;
21(23).
PMID: 33255749
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are emitted by plants as a consequence of their interaction with biotic and abiotic factors, and have a very important role in plant evolution. Floral VOCs...
