Effects of cumulus clouds on microclimate and shoot-level photosynthetic gas exchange in Picea engelmannii and Abies lasiocarpa at treeline, Medicine Bow Mountains, Wyoming, USA
Hughes, Nicole M.; Carpenter, Kaylyn L.; Cook, David K.; Keidel, Timothy S.; Miller, Charlene N.; Neal, Junior L.; Sanchez, Adriana; Smith, William K.Here we describe the dynamic effects of cumulus clouds on microclimate and shoot-level photosynthetic gas exchange in saplings of two treeline conifer species—Picea engelmannii and Abies lasiocarpa. Measurements were made ...Artículo. 2015

Establishing an ant-plant mutualism: foundress queen mortality and acquiring the third partner
Sanchez, AdrianaIn the Neotropics, colonies of the ant Pseudomyrmex dendroicus are found in the hollow stems of Triplaris americana. The ants are obligate inhabitants of the ant-plant and they nest and reproduce exclusively in this ...Artículo. 2016

Fidelity and promiscuity in an ant-plant mutualism : A case study of Triplaris and Pseudomyrmex
Sanchez, AdrianaThe association between the myrmecophyte Triplaris and ants of the genus Pseudomyrmex is an often-reported example of mutualism but no molecular studies have examined this association to date. In this study, the interspecific ...Artículo. 2015

Importance of natural cloud regimes to ecophysiology in the alpine species, Caltha leptosepala and Arnica parryi, Snowy Range Mountains, southeast Wyoming, USA
Sanchez, Adriana; Hughes, Nicole M.; Smith, William K.The south-central Rocky Mountains, USA, are characterised by a dry, continental mesoclimate with typical convective cloud formation during the afternoon. Little is known about the specific influence of such predictable ...Artículo. 2015

Interplay of seasonal sunlight, air and leaf temperature in two alpine páramo species, Colombian Andes
Sanchez, Adriana; Rey-Sánchez A.C.; Posada, Juan M.; Smith W.K.In models of photosynthetic gas exchange, leaf temperature (Tleaf) is often calculated using a combination of derivations of the energy balance equation and measurements of air temperature (Tair). Yet, there are frequently ...Artículo. 2018

Leaf/shoot level ecophysiology in two broadleaf and two needle-leaf species under representative cloud regimes at alpine treeline
Sanchez, Adriana; Hughes, Nicole M.; Smith, William K.Aims The effects of clouds are now recognized as critically important to the understanding of climate change impacts on ecosystems. Regardless, few studies have focused specifically on the ecophysiological responses of ...Artículo. 2016

Neotropical ant-plant Triplaris americana attracts Pseudomyrmex mordax ant queens during seedling stages
Torres, María Fernanda; Sanchez, AdrianaThe association between the myrmecophyte Triplaris and ants of the genus Pseudomyrmex is an often-reported example of mutualism in the Neotropics. The ants colonize the hollow stems of their hosts, and in exchange, the ...Artículo. 2017

No evidence for photoinhibition of photosynthesis in alpine Caltha leptosepala DC
Sanchez, Adriana; Smith, William K.Alpine plants experience high levels of insolation, as well as cold nighttime temperatures throughout the summer growth period. These two stress factors in combination are now recognized as potentially important limitations ...Artículo. 2015

Phylogenetic relationships of Afrobrunnichia Hutch. & Dalziel (Polygonaceae) based on three chloroplast genes and ITS
Sanchez, Adriana; Kron, Kathleen A.The subfamily Eriogonoideae (Polygonaceae) comprises 31 genera of which 20 are part of the radiation of Eriogonum and allied genera in North America. The eleven remaining genera are all woody, and include species that are ...Artículo. 2009
