Enhance food plant diversity conservation and use through greater coordination between genebanks and botanic gardens

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Food plants are vital to human and planetary health, but their diversity is threatened, making food security, nutrition, and environmental goals more difficult to achieve. Food plant diversity conservation, research, and education can be enhanced through collaboration between sectors, including genebanks and botanic gardens, which possess complementary

An urban evolved invasive plant tolerates experimental climate change

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Urbanization may drive invasive species evolution, resulting in greater invasion risks as global conditions change. We compared urban populations of the invasive Erigeron annuus in Zagreb, Croatia, to surrounding rural populations and found that urban‐evolved populations were more tolerant of experimental warming and drought than rural populations ...

Food plant diversity in a rapidly changing world

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Diversity in food plants is essential to human and planetary health. On farms, in diets, and in many other areas of food systems, this diversity has undergone enormous change globally, including significant decline. We describe major trends in how food plant diversity has been changing, note the responses from conservation communities, highlight gaps ...

A composite, host‐participatory haustorium links host compatibility to defence bifurcation in Alectra vogelii (Orobanchaceae)

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Parasitic weeds of the family Orobanchaceae are among the most damaging constraints on food production in the tropics, draining water and nutrients from their hosts and threatening the livelihoods of millions of smallholder farmers. Yellow witchweed (Alectra vogelii) can destroy entire legume harvests across sub‐Saharan Africa, where these crops are a ...
