The past decade has seen a major breakthrough in our ability to easily and inexpensively
sequence genome‐scale data from diverse lineages. The development of high‐throughput …

Feature-based molecular networking (FBMN) is a popular analysis approach for liquid
chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry-based non-targeted metabolomics data. While …

A major aim of ecology is to upscale attributes of individuals to understand processes at
population, community and ecosystem scales. Such attributes are typically described using …

Research on the ecological and evolutionary roles of phytochemicals has recently
progressed from studying single compounds to examining chemical diversity itself. A key …

A long-standing but poorly tested hypothesis in plant ecology and evolution is that biotic
interactions play a more important role in producing and maintaining species diversity in the …

Plant diversity varies immensely over large-scale gradients in temperature, precipitation,
and seasonality at global and regional scales. This relationship may be driven in part by …

Diverse specialised metabolites contributed to the success of vascular plants in colonising
most terrestrial habitats. Understanding how distinct aspects of chemical diversity arise …

Plants produce an astonishing diversity of specialized metabolites as defences against
herbivores, pathogens or detrimental abiotic conditions. Plants growing at different …

Plant enemies that attack chemically similar host species are thought to mediate competitive
exclusion of chemically similar plants and select for chemical divergence among closely …

Premise Interactions between fungal endophytes and their host plants present useful
systems for identifying important factors affecting assembly of host‐associated microbiomes …
