Heterogeneity of iridoid biosynthesis in catmints: Molecular background in a phylogenetic context
Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.Evolutionary gains and losses of key biosynthetic genes likely resulting from multiple independent evolutionary events explain why certain Nepeta (catnip) species produce both the active, cat‐attracting nepetalactones and sugar‐bound iridoids, while others make only the sugar‐bound forms, and some have lost iridoid production entirely.

Defensive stratagems of plants, with special reference to allelopathy [PDF]
, 1985 The green plant has evolved an array of defences to ameliorate the effects of stresses in its environment. Allelopathy, biochemical interactions between plants, plays a role in plant defence but recent work suggests that some compounds which act as ...

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Afforestation is a key restoration strategy for mitigating land degradation and desertification in semiarid regions. However, evaluating the ecological impacts of tree species used for sustainable dryland restoration is crucial. For example, non‐native tree species may become invasive, with negative effects on native understory ...

Physiological conjunction of allelochemicals and desert plants. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Plants exchange signals with other physical and biological entities in their habitat, a form of communication termed allelopathy. The underlying principles of allelopathy and secondary-metabolite production are still poorly understood, especially in ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.This study investigated the effects of warming temperatures, intense UV‐B radiation, and seed burial depth on seedling emergence, growth, and survival of 11 cushion plant species in alpine subnival zones of the Himalaya‐Hengduan Mountains. Deep burial (> 1 cm) severely inhibited emergence in 10 species, with viability loss within 3 months.

Fire and the persistence of tuart woodlands [PDF]
, 2006 Tall tuart (Eucalyptus gomphocephala) trees are a defining element of the landscape of Perth and the coastal plain to the north and south. However, with the health of some tuart stands deteriorating, most notably at Yalgorup south of Perth, concerns are ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.The invasion of Solanum rostratum exerts stage‐dependent effects on native plant communities. The study found that at low invasion levels, it temporarily enhances native plant diversity and community stability through resource complementarity; whereas at high invasion levels, it shifts to strong competitive inhibition, leading to a sharp decline in ...
