Vessel-length distribution in stems of some American woody plants
ZIMMERMANN, M. H., and A. A. JEJE. 198 1. Vessel-length distribution in stems of some American woody plants. Can. J . Bot. 59: 18821892. Vessel-length distributions in some trees, shrubs, and a vine have been calculated from measurements of particle penetration and of air-volume flow through the xylem. In shrubs and diffuse-porous species, longest vessels were about 1 m long, but most of them w...
متن کاملEvolutionary Transitions in Floral Color
The tremendous diversity in flower color among angiosperms implies that there have been numerous evolutionary transitions in this character. The conventional wisdom is that a large proportion of these transitions reflect adaptation to novel pollinator regimes. By contrast, recent research suggests that many of these transitions may instead have been driven by selection imposed by nonpollinator ...
متن کاملTranscriptional and Hormonal Regulation of Gravitropism of Woody Stems in Populus.
Angiosperm trees reorient their woody stems by asymmetrically producing a specialized xylem tissue, tension wood, which exerts a strong contractile force resulting in negative gravitropism of the stem. Here, we show, in Populus trees, that initial gravity perception and response occurs in specialized cells through sedimentation of starch-filled amyloplasts and relocalization of the auxin transp...

متن کاملTrees as huge flowers and flowers as oversized floral guides: the role of floral color change and retention of old flowers in Tibouchina pulchra
Floral color changes and retention of old flowers are frequently combined phenomena restricted to the floral guide or single flowers in few-flowered inflorescences. They are thought to increase the attractiveness over long distances and to direct nearby pollinators toward the rewarding flowers. In Tibouchina pulchra, a massively flowering tree, the whole flower changes its color during anthesis...
