Plant resource allocation and herbivory for <i>Helianthella quinquenervis</i> (Asteraceae) over an elevational gradient
Resources obtained from the environment are allocated to many plant parts and functions. Resource allocation into defense, growth, and reproduction was examined for Helianthella quinquenervis, the Aspen sunflower, for three field sites over an elevational gtadient. H. quinquenervis has evolved a mut

Pollinator selection by floral traits and color in a hybrid zone of <i>Ipomopsis aggregata</i> and <i>I. tenuituba</i> (Polemoniaceae)
Albinos plants are usually discriminated by their pollinators. Exist the possibility that other pollinator drive a reproductive isolation on this plants. To observe if an albino of a plant commonly pollinated by hummingbirds can be selected by other pollinator we used the F1s of albinos of Ipomopsis

The effect of elevation on the phenology and pollination ecology of <i></i>Frasera speciosa<i></i> (Gentianaceae)
Nectar and pollen rewards of invasive plants and their native congeners
Many invasive plants are equipped with a suite of mechanisms that can allow them to out-compete native plants. Recently, there has been growing recognition that invasive plants may affect native plants by luring away shared pollinators. The goal of this research was to explore the properties that ma

Group hiberation does not reduce energetic costs of young yellow-bellied marmots
Climate change and anti-herbivory resistance communication in <i>Artemisia tridentata</i>
It has been suggested that anthropogenic climate change may greatly influence plant communities, particularly at high elevations. We asked whether climate change and/or elevation gradient influence volatile intra-plant communication for purposes of anti- herbivory resistance and whether air contact
