Data from: Embracing Biodiversity: Multispecies Population Genomics of Leafless Bossiaeas Reveals Novel Taxa, Population Dynamics, and Conservation Strategies
Published 2024-04-22Leafless Bossiaea species are a unique group of plants endemic to Australia which present intriguing challenges in taxonomy and conservation due to their morphological simplicity and often small, disjunct populations. We ...Open AccessDataset -
Paternal protein provisioning to embryos during male seahorse pregnancy
Published 2024In brief: Seahorses exhibit male pregnancy and are thus valuable comparative models for the study of the physiology and evolution of pregnancy. This study shows that protein is transported from fathers to developing embryos ...Open AccessArticle -
Odour information: the key to associational effects of neighbours on focal plant susceptibility to mammalian herbivores
Published 2024-03-04(1) Neighbouring plants can alter the susceptibility of high-quality focal plants to herbivores by affecting herbivore patch choice. Many herbivores use plant odour to make patch-scale foraging decisions from afar, but the ...Open AccessDataset -
Global meta-analysis of nitrogen fertilizer use efficiency in rice, wheat and maize
Published 2022Almost half of global nitrogen (N) fertilizer is applied to rice, wheat and maize, but a large proportion is not directly taken up causing detrimental effects on the environment. To understand how fertilizer management, climate ...Open AccessArticle -
Arbuscular mycorrhizae are important for phosphorus uptake and root biomass, and exudation for nitrogen uptake in tomato plants grown under variable water conditions
Published 2023Aims Mycorrhiza and rhizodeposition are important for nutrient and water uptake but their role under variable water conditions remains unclear. We investigated how mycorrhiza and rhizodeposition contributed to plant uptake ...Open AccessArticle
