Laurel wilt disease (LWD), a fungal disease vectored by the non-native redbay ambrosia beetle (Xyleborus glabratus Eichhoff), has caused mortality of redbay (Persea borbonia (L.) Spreng.) in the coastal plain of Georgia since 2003. Despite its rapid

Premise of the study Floral evolution is frequently ascribed to selection by pollinators, but may also be shaped by antagonists. However, remarkably few studies have examined geographic mosaics in resistance to floral antagonists or the consequences

We conducted an investigation on the efficacy of service-learning in large environmental biology classes. We were interested in whether or not service-learning in classes with over 200 students has an impact on content learning, and attitudes/behavio

Previous studies examining the seeds of most Trillium species have reported double dormancy, a type of seed dormancy where two cold periods and one warm period are needed for complete germination. In the present paper, we describe a field study exami

Assessing the factors that may contribute to rarity in flowering plants is important in preserving biodiversity. One method of examining these factors is through comparisons of rare species to more common congeners. While these studies are fairly com

Knowledge of ecological characteristics of rare species is important in assessing their threat status. Trillium reliquum is one of four globally vulnerable North American Trillium species. Yet little is known about the ecology and reproductive biolog

The interactions between Persea borbonia (redbay), its psyllid leaf gallers, and its seed predators were examined in field conditions using natural differences in light levels in order to determine (a) the distribution of galls relative to light avai

We tested the hypothesis that traits traditionally thought to function in pollination can also influence attack by floral herbivores. Because distylous species produce two different flower types, we used Gelsemium sempervirens, a distylous vine of so

Owing to their successional nature, sand dunes provide an opportunity to examine the effects of non-native species introduced into multiple habitats. We investigated the biotic and abiotic effects of non-native Pinus nigra in four habitats on the dun
