A phylogenetic approach for identifying new sources of economically important fatty acids in plants and algae

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 1358-1371, November 2024.
New sources of essential and other nutritionally and/or pharmacologically important fatty acids for human use can be discovered through bioprospecting. Demonstrating how fatty acids in plants and algae are distributed across a phylogeny is a critical first step in this process.

Comparing ichthyofaunal composition between Zostera japonica beds (Plantae, Alismatales, Zosteraceae) and adjacent bare ground within a small temperate estuary in southern Japan [PDF]

Acta Ichthyologica et Piscatoria
Zostera japonica Ascherson et Graebner, 1907 is a dominant seagrass species that forms coastal habitats in the northwestern Pacific. Bare areas adjacent to these seagrass beds are also recognized as fish habitat.

TIR-NBS-LRR genes are rare in monocots: evidence from diverse monocot orders

BMC Research Notes, 2009
Background Plant resistance (R) gene products recognize pathogen effector molecules. Many R genes code for proteins containing nucleotide binding site (NBS) and C-terminal leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domains. NBS-LRR proteins can be divided into two groups,

Evolution of glucuronoxylan side chain variability in vascular plants and the compensatory adaptations of cell wall–degrading hydrolases

New Phytologist, Volume 244, Issue 3, Page 1024-1040, November 2024.
Summary Polysaccharide structural complexity not only influences cell wall strength and extensibility but also hinders pathogenic and biotechnological attempts to saccharify the wall. In certain species and tissues, glucuronic acid side groups on xylan exhibit arabinopyranose or galactose decorations whose genetic and evolutionary basis is completely ...

Osmophores and floral fragrance in Anacardium humile and Mangifera indica (Anacardiaceae): an overlooked secretory structure in Sapindales [PDF]

, 2018
Background and aims: Flowers of Anacardiaceae and other Sapindales typically produce nectar, but scent, often associated with a reward for pollinators, has surprisingly been mentioned only rarely for members of the family and order.

The genome of the seagrass Zostera marina reveals angiosperm adaptation to the sea [PDF]

, 2016
Seagrasses colonized the sea on at least three independent occasions to form the basis of one of the most productive and widespread coastal ecosystems on the planet.

Phylogenetic Analyses of Two Mitochondrial Metabolic Genes Sampled in Parallel from Angiosperms Find Fundamental Interlocus Incongruence [PDF]

, 2008
Plant molecular phylogeneticists have supported an analytical approach of combining loci from different genomes, but the combination of mitochondrial sequences with chloroplast and nuclear sequences is potentially problematic. Low substitution rates in

A taxonomic treatment of Alismataceae (Alismatales) in the Brazilian Pantanal

Phytotaxa
This study provides a taxonomic treatment of Alismataceae species occurring in the Brazilian Pantanal. Field collections were carried out and analysis of sheets housed in the most representative herbaria of Pantanal were consulted. A total of five genera and 19 species were confirmed in the Brazilian Pantanal.
