Trellis-forming stems of a tropical liana Condylocarpon guianense (Apocynaceae): A plant-made safety net constructed by simple “start-stop” development

Tropical vines and lianas have evolved mechanisms to avoid mechanical damage during their climbing life histories. We explore the mechanical properties and stem development of a tropical climber that develops trellises in tropical rain forest canopies. We measured the young stems of Condylocarpon gu...
