Growth–defence trade-off defines a diffusion limit. A commentary on ‘Boundary-line trade-off in bryophytes between UV photoprotection and photosynthetic capacity, but not desiccation tolerance’
A commentary on how bryophyte investment in UV protection may impose a diffusion limit on photosynthesis, while desiccation tolerance depends on a partly separate protective system.

Photosynthetic activity in the heterotrophic plant genus Cuscuta (Convolvulaceae) is modulated by phylogeny and ontogeny
This study examined how Cuscuta species balance photosynthetic function and parasitism by quantifying pigment composition and photosynthetic activity across phylogenetic and developmental contexts.

Natural ultraviolet radiation exposure alters photosynthetic biology and improves recovery from desiccation in a desert moss
Plants in dryland ecosystems experience extreme daily and seasonal fluctuations in light, temperature, and water availability. We used …
