Alon Cna'ani et al report phylogeny and environmental conditions strongly affect diel scent emission patterns in desert Brassicaceae species. Light/dark emission ratios are negatively affected by increase in winter temps - super plant photos from twitter doi.org/10.1111/pce.14045

#Desert #Brassicaceae change their smell along the day in a predictive manner- hot from the press! Lots of fun working on a multidisciplinary project with @PlanTzin_lab @AlonCna Efrat Dener and other excellent collaborators. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
An end of an era and certainly one of the most influential ecologist of our time.
We are deeply saddened to hear the news of Professor J. Philip Grime’s passing. He was one of the world's most influential plant ecologists and an Honorary member of the BES. Our deepest condolences go out to his family and friends.
