Abstract Elderberries (Sambucus spp.) have been valued as food and medicine around the world for millennia. Elderberry products are experiencing an increase in demand as ongoing research substantiates their putative health benefits. European elderberries (Sambucus nigra subsp. nigra) are an established industry in Europe and are often imported into the

Phylogeny, systematics and evolution of mimicry patterns in Neotropical limenitidine butterflies
The most comprehensive phylogeny for Adelpha reveals that it is not monophyletic, supporting the description of the new genus Adelphina for the alala‐group. The rate of mimicry evolution increases towards the tropics, consistent with the hypothesis of stronger biotic interactions near the equator.

Risks for human health related to the presence of plant lectins in food
Abstract The European Commission asked the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) to assess the risk related to the presence of plant lectins in food. Based on the available evidence, the CONTAM Panel considered only phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), a legume lectin from beans (Phaseolus sp.), for the risk characterisation.

Morphological and anatomical study of the genus Sambucus L. (Adoxaceae) in Iran
Sambucus L. (Adoxaceae) with 25 extant taxa is a tall tree-like shrub and can be found growing in temperate and subtropical regions in Europe, Asia, North Africa and North America (Mabberley 2008). Sambucus was previously classified in the Caprifoliaceae family but due to new genetic research and reclassification (Donoghue 2003), it now belongs to ...

Phylogenetic analysis of Viburnum (Adoxaceae) in Korea using DNA sequences [PDF]
The nucleotide sequences of the chloroplast rbcL, matK, and psbA-trnH and nuclear internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions were determined from all species of Viburnum in Korea with multiple accessions to reconstruct the phylogeny and to evaluate the utility of the DNA sequences as DNA barcodes.

Elderberries: A Source of Ribosome-Inactivating Proteins with Lectin Activity
Sambucus (Adoxaceae) species have been used for both food and medicine purposes. Among these, Sambucus nigra L. (black elder), Sambucus ebulus L. (dwarf elder), and Sambucus sieboldiana L. are the most relevant species studied.

Pollen Foraging by Bumble Bee Queens During a Critical Nesting Period Revealed by DNA Metabarcoding
During the nest‐founding stage of the bumble bee (Apidae: Bombus) life cycle, solitary queen bees gather floral pollen to feed their offspring in nascent colonies. Here, in the first study of queen pollen loads in the southeastern U.S., we use next‐generation sequencing to characterize the pollen collected by wild bumble bee queens across northern and ...

What is Sambucus mexicana (Adoxaceae)?
Inconsistent application of the name Sambucus mexicana C. Presl ex DC. has resulted in confusion in the literature and in herbaria. In order to determine the correct application of the name, Presl’s original material (a Haenke collection, made on the Malaspina Expedition) was located and characterized.
