Lectotypification of Actinidia latifolia var. deliciosa (Actinidiaceae)
A lectotype is designated for Actinidia latifolia (Gardner & Champ.) Merr. var. deliciosa A. Chev. (Actinidiaceae), selecting the second plate from the Chevalier protologue. Actinidia latifolia var. deliciosa is the basionym for the well-known kiwifruit A. deliciosa (A. Chev.) C. F. Liang & A. R. Ferguson.

Summary: The genome of kiwifruit (Actinidia chinensis) was sequenced previously, the first in the Actinidiaceae family. It was shown to have been affected by polyploidization events, the nature of which has been elusive.

A Deep Metagenomic Snapshot as a Proof-of-Concept for Resource Generation: Simultaneous Assembly of Host, Food, and Microbiome Genomes From Stingless Bee Larval Food. [PDF]
This study serves as a proof‐of‐concept, demonstrating that deep shotgun sequencing of a single complex sample—stingless bee larval food—can simultaneously generate multiple genomic resources. From this dataset, we assembled three genomes (a near‐complete bacterium, a draft host mitochondrion, and a fragmented plant chloroplast) with varying ...

Pollen‐pistil interaction in kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa; Actinidiaceae) [PDF]
The pollen‐pistil interaction has been examined in kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa). In this species a large number of seeds are produced in each fruit and a great many pollen grains germinate and grow to reach the ovules. This growth is assisted by an abundant secretion that is present all along the pistilar tract. At anthesis, the stigma is covered by
