  1. ncbi Geographic variation and plasticity to water and nutrients in Pelargonium australe
    Adrienne B Nicotra
    School of Botany and Zoology, Australian National University, Canberra, ACT 0200, Australia
    New Phytol 176:136-49. 2007
    ..Pelargonium arrived in Australia approximately 5 million yr ago. It is concluded here that high amounts of plasticity, in some cases adaptive, and weak integration among traits may be key to the spread and success of this species...
  2. ncbi Leaf shape linked to photosynthetic rates and temperature optima in South African Pelargonium species
    A B Nicotra
    School of Botany and Zoology, The Australian National University, Canberra, ACT 0200, Australia
    Oecologia 154:625-35. 2008
    ..Higher thermal optima, in conjunction with leaf dissection, may reflect selection pressure to protect photosynthetic machinery against excessive leaf temperatures when stomata close in response to water stress...
  3. ncbi Plant phenotypic plasticity in a changing climate
    A B Nicotra
    Research School of Biology, The Australian National University, Canberra, ACT, Australia

    Am J Bot 98:197-206. 2011
    ..Previous studies have proposed a degree of specificity in both interactions. Epiphytic orchids therefore provide an interesting system in which to examine multispecies interactions and the evolution of specialization...

    Matthew T Harrison
    Research School of Biological Sciences, The Australian National University, Canberra, ACT 2601, Australia
    Plant Cell Environ 32:259-70. 2009
    ..5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco). Variation in photosynthetic rate per unit nitrogen could not be explained by variation in cell wall nitrogen...

    Vivien P Thomson
    Botany and Zoology, Australian National University, Canberra, ACT 0200, Australia
    Oecologia 134:167-75. 2003
    ..Herbivore-damaged plants may be induced to use a greater proportion of the absorbed light energy for photosynthesis as a result of altered carbohydrate source-sink relationships...

    Luke G Barrett
    CSIRO Plant Industry, GPO Box 1600, Canberra, ACT 2601, Australia
