Molecular Systematics of Plants
TL;DR: The chloroplast DNA restriction site variation and the evolution of the annual habit in North American Coreopsis (Asteraceae) and the suitability of molecular and morphological evidence in reconstructing plant phylogeny are examined.

H. M. R. Hoffmann,Jürgen P. Rabe +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the synthesis of the heterocycle and classification of the synthetic methods are not only of practical interest, but also fundamentally important as a current example for the construction of an unusual 1,4-functionality distance and an α-substituted acrylic ester moiety which is susceptible to nucleophilic attack.

Why are adaptations for long-range seed dispersal rare in desert plants?
Stephen Fllner,Avi Shmida +1 more
TL;DR: It is argued that the openness of desert vegetation and the patterns of climatic variation favor atelechory while antitelechory is generally a side-effect of mechanisms whose adaptive value is not directly related to dispersal.
