Unexpectedly pollen viability under hotter conditions🌡️suggesting pollen development in tropical woody plants may be more heat-resilient than thought
AbstractBackground and Aims. The Brazilian Cerrado – the world’s most biodiverse savannah – is rapidly warming, potentially threatening thousands of specie
How will climate warming affect reproduction in wild tropical plants? 🌡️🌿This new study experimentally heated mature woody species in the Brazilian Cerrado, the world’s most biodiverse savannah, to test how rising temperatures impact plant reproduction. (2/10)
