PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Recent shifts in flowering times are an index of, and a response to, human driven climate change. However, most information on these flowering changes is heavily skewed to the northern hemisphere. This imbalance limits our understanding of how climate change is affecting ecosystems, including the mismatches of flowering times between species, increased

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Iron deficiency anaemia remains a major public health challenge in Sub‐Saharan Africa, where population growth, displacement and limited resources heighten nutritional insecurity. We compiled a list of indigenous African underutilized wild food plants and examined their potential for addressing micronutrient deficiencies.

Influence of Root Secretion Flavonoids on the Biogeochemistry Behavior of Cadmium in Avicennia marina (Forsk.) Vierh Rhizosphere [PDF]
, 2015 红树林生态系统主要分布于热带和亚热带的海岸潮间带，其具有独特的生态学和生物学特性，为污染物的吸附治理提供了最佳场所。然而，近年来，随着工业化、城市化和地区经济的快速发展，导致大量生活污水和工业废水流向红树林湿地，使得红树林生态系统面临越来越严重的重金属污染，从而使得滨海湿地面临着日益严峻的重金属污染。进入红树林湿地的污染物最先在红树植物根际区进行一系列形态转化等过程，而后被植物吸收累积。因此，红树林根际区重金属化学行为已经成为近年来污染生态学的研究热点。 类黄酮是植物体内广泛存在的一类重要次生代谢产物 ...

The Cinderella tree, Quillaja saponaria – A soap story
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Our current understanding of plants has been shaped by the entwining of different cultures. The Chilean soapbark tree, traditionally valued as a source of natural soap, was shown by serendipitous research in France in the 1900s to produce compounds that can boost the immune response to vaccines.

Genomic structure and ex situ conservation of the North American grapevine Vitis labrusca
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.The North American wild grapevine species Vitis labrusca is an important source of disease resistance and climate resilience traits for breeding new grapevine cultivars. To ensure its continued use in breeding, V. labrusca must be accurately identified and genetically diverse material must be conserved.

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.The use of wild edible plants and the traditional knowledge associated with them are rapidly disappearing across the Mediterranean, with serious consequences for biodiversity, cultural heritage, and regional food security. This study compiles and organizes fragmented information to create the first comprehensive catalogue of these plants across the ...
