| It has been shown recently for members of all major epiphyte groups that photosynthetic capacity is a function of plant size. |
|
| Only a few epiphyte ferns, orchids and bromeliads have been studied genetically. |
|
| Nests are most often built in decaying tree trunks, but epiphyte root masses and occupied termitaries are also used. |
|
| Why is there such poor recruitment of Parinari excelsa, and what implications does this have for epiphyte diversity? |
|
| Different types of tree provide very different bark conditions and so support different epiphyte communities. |
|
| As an epiphyte, the staghorn would be very clingy, and would need something to hold on to. |
|
| It is committed to the basic and applied research on antigen microbes like viruses, bacteria, epiphyte and vermin. |
|
| The banyan begins as an epiphyte on a host tree, where its seeds are dropped by a fruit-eating bird. |
|
| It is an epiphyte plant that rolls up itself around a trunk from the ground level to the top. |
|
| Leaving peninsulas or large islands of old forest tracts in cutblocks should enhance epiphyte colonization of second-growth forest stands. |
|
| It was partially obscured by the wilted tentacles of a suspended epiphyte. |
|
| An ecological study of the polypody fern Polypodium polypodioides as an epiphyte in Mississippi. |
|
| A true air plant, or epiphyte, it derives its sustenance from the wind and rain. |
|
| It is known as an epiphyte because it grows on another plant. |
|
| Snails feed on epiphyte vegetation on the surface of the leaves, amphipods and small shrimp on detritus, encrusting bryozoans on suspended food particles, and hydroids on small organisms in the water. |
|
| Some blades of the confettilike seaweed are bleached white by the sun, and the seaweed is acting as an epiphyte, growing on other species of algae in the tide pools. |
|
| He buys plants at various ports in Cuba, Trinidad, Nassau, and South America He specializes in the epiphyte type, which clings to to trees, absorbing moisture and nourishments through spongy aerial roots. |
|
| It includes a woodcut image of a stone mountain constructed in his epiphyte house at Knypersley estate in Staffordshire that was intended to reconstruct the natural habitat of his tropical plants. |
