Reproductive efficiency and shade avoidance plasticity under simulated competition
Plant strategy and life-history theories make different predictions about reproductive efficiency under competition. While strategy theory suggests under intense competition iteroparous perennial plants delay reproduction and semelparous annuals reproduce quickly, life-history theory predicts both annual and perennial plants increase resource allocation to reproduction under intense competition...

This is the flow of information between Plant–plant signalling Plants generate and perceive informational signals. individuals. An interaction is considered An interaction (between plants) is considered to be to be informational when it involves the informational when it involves the exchange of an exchange of an insignificant amount of matter or energy, in quantitative terms, insignificant amo...
متن کاملThe Adaptive Evolution of Plasticity: Phytochrome-Mediated Shade Avoidance Responses1
SYNOPSIS. Many plants display a characteristic suite of developmental ‘‘shade avoidance’’ responses, such as stem elongation and accelerated reproduction, to the low ratio of red to far-red wavelengths (R:FR) reflected or transmitted from green vegetation. This R:FR cue of crowding and vegetation shade is perceived by the phytochrome family of photoreceptors. Phytochrome-mediated responses prov...

متن کاملPathogen evolution under host avoidance plasticity.
Host resistance consists of defences that limit pathogen burden, and can be classified as either adaptations targeting recovery from infection or those focused upon infection avoidance. Conventional theory treats avoidance as a fixed strategy which does not vary from one interaction to the next. However, there is increasing empirical evidence that many avoidance strategies are triggered by exte...
