This study shows that white spruce resilience to warmer and drier climates depends on stomatal and xylem plasticity, not growth rate, as both fast- and slow-growing families exhibited similar physiological responses.

This study shows that PEG-simulated drought reduces above-ground growth in Medicago lupulina but increases nodulation, suggesting PEG may not accurately simulate drought effects on rhizobial symbiosis.

This study examines phytoplasma infection dynamics in white trillium populations, finding that low host density increases infection likelihood and that the pathogen persists across the host's range.

This study investigates how microbial legacies and mutualists affect legume responses to drought and heat, finding that mutualists can mitigate negative impacts of drought-treated soils.

The paper examines differences in stomatal conductance between leaf shape genotypes of Ipomoea hederacea, finding that entire leaf genotypes have higher conductance in warmer conditions, suggesting divergent ecophysiological strategies.

The paper investigates how host genetic variation affects the assembly of leaf-associated microbiomes in Ipomoea hederacea, finding contributions from both Mendelian and quantitative genetic factors.
