Although it has long been recognized that seed production by many forest trees varies
greatly from year to year, masting (along with 'mast fruiting','mast seeding'and 'masting …

Climate change profoundly affects the timing of seasonal activities of organisms, known as
phenology. The impact of climate change is not unidirectional; it is also influenced by plant …

High interannual variation in seed production in perennial plants can be synchronized at
subcontinental scales with wide consequences for ecosystem functioning, but how such …

Seed production in many plants is characterized by large interannual variation, which is
synchronized at subcontinental scales in some species but local in others. The reproductive …

Highly variable and synchronised production of seeds by plant populations, known as
masting, is implicated in many important ecological processes, but how it arises remains …

Plants remember their exposure to environmental changes and respond more effectively the
next time they encounter a similar change by flexibly altering gene expression. Epigenetic …

Synchronised and quasi‐periodic production of seeds by plant populations, known as
masting, is implicated in many ecological processes, but how it arises remains poorly …

The mechanisms underlying mast seeding have traditionally been studied by collecting long-
term observational data on seed crops and correlating seedfall with environmental …

Plants sense and respond to environmental cues during 24 h fluctuations in their
environment. This requires the integration of internal cues such as circadian timing with …

The timing of seed production and release is highly relevant for successful plant
reproduction. Ecological disturbances, if synchronized with reproductive effort, can increase …
