UAV‐derived greenness and within‐crown spatial patterning can detect ash dieback in individual trees by Flynn, W. R. M., Grieve, S. W. D., Henshaw, A. J., Owen, H. J. F., Buggs, R. J. A., Metheringham, C. L., Plumb, W. J., Stocks, J. J., Lines, E. R.

“…Ash Dieback (ADB) has been present in the UK since 2012 and is expected to kill up to 80% of UK ash trees. Detecting and quantifying the extent of ADB in…”

Polyploidy and the sexual system: what can we learn from Mercurialis annua? by Pannell, J.R, Obbard, D.J, Buggs, R.J.A

“…The evolutionary success of polyploidy most directly requires the ability of polyploid individuals to reproduce and transmit their genes to subsequent…”

On the origins of species: does evolution repeat itself in polyploid populations of independent origin? by Soltis, D E, Buggs, R J A, Barbazuk, W B, Schnable, P S, Soltis, P S

“…Multiple origins of the same polyploid species pose the question: Does evolution repeat itself in these independently formed lineages? Tragopogon is a unique…”
