Among dioecious flowering plants, females and males often differ in a range of
morphological, physiological, and life-history traits. This is referred to as sexual dimorphism …

Previous studies have shown that there are significant sexual differences in the
morphological and physiological responses of Populus cathayana Rehder under stressful …

Several important dioecious species show sexual spatial segregation (SSS) along
environmental gradients that have significant ecological effect on terrestrial ecosystem …

We examined the distribution of Coccoloba cereifera, a tropical endemic species that occurs
in a small area in the Espinhaço mountain range, southeastern Brazil. It is hypothesized that …

• Premise of the study: Females often outnumber males in Salix populations, although the
mechanisms behind female bias are not well understood and could be caused by both …

We analyzed sex ratio, growth rates, and spacing among individuals of Podocarpus nagi, a
dioecious tree, on Mt. Mikasa, Nara City, Japan. The sex ratio of reproductive trees≥ 5 cm in …

Background Dioecy represents a source of variation in plant quality to herbivores due to
sexual differences in intensity and timing of resource allocation to growth, defense and …

Comparative ecophysiology of photosynthesis of five sympatric Velloziaceae species
(Liliidae, Monocotyledonae) in the savanna-or cerrado-like rupestrian fields of Serra do …

Leaf galls induced by a still undescribed new species of Cecidomyiidae (Diptera) are
frequent on leaves of Clusia arrudae Planchon & Tirana (Clusiaceae) in the rupestrian fields …

In many dioecious plant species in which spatial distributions of males and females have
been examined, the sexes are spatially segregated–usually along an environmental …
