Unpollinated brodiaea (Triteleia laxa Benth.; syn. Brodiaea laxa) flowers produced no measurable C2 H4 during their entire lives. Treatment with C2 H4 (0.03 μl·liter -1) induced senescence of open flowers, completely inhibited opening of buds and petal growth, and promoted ovary growth. Silver thiosulfate had no effect on flowers kept in air but counteracted the effects of applied C, H.. The effect of C2 H4 on ovary growth seems to be indirect, via promotion of petal senescence and mobilization of the petal's metabolites to the ovary. Brodiaea flowers are protandrous; the stigma appears to be receptive (as judged by a pollination-induced burst of ethylene synthesis) only when the petals start to senesce. At this stage, papillae on the stigma surface elongated and separated.

AbstractWhitehouse adapts insights from evolutionary anthropology to interpret extreme self-sacrifice through the concept of identity fusion. The model neglects the role of normative systems in shaping behaviors, especially in relation to violent extremism. In peaceful groups, increasing fusion will actually decrease extremism. Groups collectively appraise threats and opportunities, actively debate action options, and rarely choose violence toward self or others.

AbstractIntuitions guide decision-making, and looking to the evolutionary history of humans illuminates why some behavioral responses are more intuitive than others. Yet a place remains for cognitive processes to second-guess intuitive responses – that is, to be reflective – and individual differences abound in automatic, intuitive processing as well.

Abstract Tomasello offers a compelling account of the emergence of humans’ sense of obligation. We suggest that more needs to be said about the role of affect in the creation of obligations. We also argue that positive emotions such as gratitude evolved to encourage individuals to fulfill cooperative obligations without the negative quality that Tomasello proposes is inherent in obligations.

Abstract The authors do the field of cultural evolution a service by exploring the role of non-social cognition in human cumulative technological culture, truly neglected in comparison with socio-cognitive abilities frequently assumed to be the primary drivers. Some specifics of their delineation of the critical factors are problematic, however. I highlight recent chimpanzee–human comparative findings that should help refine such analyses.

Abstract This commentary focuses upon the relationship between two themes in the target article: the ways in which a Markov blanket may be defined and the role of precision and salience in mediating the interactions between what is internal and external to a system. These each rest upon the different perspectives we might take while “choosing” a Markov blanket.
