Journal ArticleDOI

Energy, water, and broad-scale geographic patterns of species richness

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examine the relationship between climate and biodiversity and conclude that the interaction between water and energy, either directly or indirectly, provides a strong explanation for globally extensive plant and animal diversity gradients, but for animals there also is a latitudinal shift in the relative importance of ambient energy vs. water moving from the poles to the equator.
Journal ArticleDOI

COI1: An Arabidopsis Gene Required for Jasmonate-Regulated Defense and Fertility

TL;DR: The coi1 mutation defines an Arabidopsis gene required for response to jasmonates, which regulate defense against insects and pathogens, wound healing, and pollen fertility as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent Rapid Regional Climate Warming on the Antarctic Peninsula

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the significance of rapid regional (RRR) warming in one area, the Antarctic Peninsula, and discuss several possible candidate mechanisms: changing oceanographic or changing atmospheric circulation, or a regional air-sea-ice feedback amplifying greenhouse warming.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antarctic climate change during the last 50 years

TL;DR: The Reference Antarctic Data for Environmental Research (READER) project data set of monthly mean Antarctic nearsurface temperature, mean sea-level pressure (MSLP) and wind speed has been used to investigate trends in these quantities over the last 50 years for 19 stations with long records as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Jasmonate Signal Pathway

TL;DR: Recent advances in understanding of the role of JAs in plant responses to biotic and abiotic stresses are reviewed.
