Title
Trade-off between soluble protein production and nutritional storage in Bromeliaceae
Ana Zangirolame Gonçalves; Helenice Mercier; Rafael Silva Oliveira; et al. Annals of Botany 2016. doi:10.1093/aob/mcw174
Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Bromelioideae had higher soluble protein concentrations.
- Observation Ananas bracteatus was the one species with greater growth.
- Observation Tillandsioideae had higher total amino acid and asparagine concentrations.
- Observation Tillandsioideae did not grow.
- Observation Ordination distinguished subfamilies and ecophysiological types across nitrogen incorporation, protein, asparagine, growth and leaf mass per area.
- Mechanism The authors interpret Tillandsioideae as storing nitrogen in amino acids during nutritional stress.
- Mechanism The authors interpret Bromelioideae as using nitrogen for soluble protein production and potentially rapid growth.
