The ecology of hemiparasitic plants, which retain photosynthetic capability while extracting water and nutrients from their hosts, represents a dynamic field that bridges plant physiology, community ...

Aquatic carnivorous plants, typified by genera such as Utricularia and Aldrovanda, represent some of nature’s most specialised adaptations for life in nutrient-poor aquatic environments. These plants ...

Shown here is the cover of UW Professor Daniel Laughlin’s new book. The book is targeted to graduate students and other scholars of ecology and evolution. (Oxford University Press/Cover Art by Ada ...

The social dynamics of plants are as complex as those at any high school. By studying how plants interact — one-on-one, as a population, and in their communities — ecologists can figure out how to ...

Plants, as the base for ecological food chains, serve as the structural and functional foundation of natural and managed systems. The study of plant science and biotechnology provides opportunity in a ...

To provide research grants of $300 to $1000 for Ph.D. and Master’s Degree students doing field research in plant ecology in the Rocky Mountains or the Arctic Eligible Universities: Universities in the ...

A stealthy, destructive weed — the sycamore maple — began its “don’t worry, just love me” phase of invading Great Britain so long ago that the tree didn’t have what we’d call a scientific name. The ...

What do plant population ecologists do, anyway? Have you ever wondered what types of careers members of the Plant Population Ecology Section have? We recently surveyed our members to learn more about ...

This area entails study and maintenance of biological diversity at the level of genes, populations, communities, ecosystems and biomes; intellectual underpinnings include evolutionary theory, ...

Children are not being taught enough about plants at a time when they could be the answer to global warming, scientists have warned. This has led to people becoming "disconnected from the botanical ...
