Aerial roots have evolved in plants from diverse ecosystems, many facing specific environmental challenges associated with their natural or agricultural setting. In coastal species exposed to wind and waves, including mangroves, soft anoxic substrate... Read More about Aerial Root Physiology: Reaching for the Sky or Down to Earth?.

Hunting for answers: Linking lectures with the real world using a mobile treasure hunt app (2019)
Journal Article
Hartman, T., Lydon, S. J., & Rasmussen, A. (2019). Hunting for answers: Linking lectures with the real world using a mobile treasure hunt app. Plants, People, Planet, 1(3), 233-247. https://doi.org/10.1002/ppp3.33

Plants underpin our society providing food, fuel, medicines, clean air and water, positive mental health, and are central to biodiversity conservation. Despite this importance and an increasing need for people with plant-identification skills, many s...

Variable water cycles have a greater impact on wheat growth and soil nitrogen response than constant watering (2019)
Journal Article
Cousins, O. H., Garnett, T. P., Rasmussen, A., Mooney, S. J., Smernik, R. J., Brien, C. J., & Cavagnaro, T. R. (2020). Variable water cycles have a greater impact on wheat growth and soil nitrogen response than constant watering. Plant Science, 290, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.plantsci.2019.05.009

© 2019 Current climate change models project that water availability will become more erratic in the future. With soil nitrogen (N) supply coupled to water availability, it is important to understand the combined effects of variable water and N suppl...
