Photo-oxidation of Isoprene with Organic Seed: Estimates of Aerosol Size Distributions Evolution and Formation Rates
Indoor smog chamber experiments have been conducted to investigate the dynamics of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation from OH-initiated photo-oxidation of isoprene in the presence of organic seed aerosol. The dependence of the size distributions of SOA on both the level of pre-existing particles generated in situ from the photo-oxidation of trace hydrocarbons of indoor atmosphere and the...
متن کاملPlant growth rates and seed size: a re-evaluation.
Small-seeded plant species are often reported to have high relative growth rate or RGR. However, because RGR declines as plants grow larger, small-seeded species could achieve higher RGR simply by virtue of their small size. In contrast, size-standardized growth rate or SGR factors out these size effects. Differences in SGR can thus only be due to differences in morphology, allocation, or physi...
متن کاملMolecular phylogenies in angiosperm evolution.
We have cloned and sequenced cDNAs for the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase of glycolysis, gapC, from a bryophyte, a gymnosperm, and three angiosperms. Phylogenetic analyses are presented for these data in the context of other gapC sequences and in parallel with published nucleotide sequences for the chloroplast encoded gene for the large subunit of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase...
متن کاملCorrelated evolution of genome size and seed mass.
Previous investigators have identified strong positive relationships between genome size and seed mass within species, and across species from the same genus and family. Here, we make the first broad-scale quantification of this relationship, using data for 1222 species, from 139 families and 48 orders. We analyzed the relationship between genome size and seed mass using a statistical framework...
متن کاملAbsolute diversification rates in angiosperm clades.
The extraordinary contemporary species richness and ecological predominance of flowering plants (angiosperms) are even more remarkable when considering the relatively recent onset of their evolutionary diversification. We examine the evolutionary diversification of angiosperms and the observed differential distribution of species in angiosperm clades by estimating the rate of diversification fo...
