Check out our new paper on buzz pollination. This paper was led by Yuanqing, a PhD student in Kunming. Vibration mechanics involved in buzz pollination lead to size-dependent associations between bumblebees and Pedicularis flowers

Another nice paper modelling buzz pollination. Cool to see two separate groups in China and the US converging on using similar novel approaches to study buzz pollination!

Our review of recently evolved allopolyploid plants is out. It was very nice writing this paper with great colleagues! We dedicate this paper to the memory of Richard Abbott who contributed so much to this and many other topics in plant evolution.

Paper alert 🚨! Check out what we found about how "push-pull" mixed cropping can work, mechanistically speaking... The "push-pull technology" is a mixed cropping practice that consists in cultivating a focal crop together with companion plants.

This came in the mail today: the beautiful new @Palgrave book by Tom Lathan on extinctions. With beautiful drawings by Claire Kohda. First chapter: Malaysian land snail Plectostoma sciaphilum, driven to extinction because the karst hill where it lived was quarried away 10 y ago.
