Capturing Vegetation Gradients Along the West African Margin Using Terrestrial Plant Biomarkers in Marine Sediments

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Understanding the transport mechanisms of terrestrial biomarkers to marine sediments is critical for interpreting past environmental and climate changes from these valuable archives. Here, we produce new estimates of two classes of terrestrial plant biomarkers, n‐alkane waxes and pentacyclic triterpene methyl ethers (PTMEs), from a transect of

Going New Places: Successful Adaptation and Genomic Integrity of Grain Amaranth in India

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 18, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Global climate change will impact the geographic distribution of plant populations. The rapid changes will require range shifts and the adaptation of plants. The recent global spread of crops across different continents shows how plants successfully coped with drastically different environments.

Osmopriming Increases Seed Germination of Amaranthus cruentus (L.)

Seeds
Amaranth is considered a gluten-free, protein-rich pseudocereal. However, seed dormancy affects the germination rate and production. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of osmopriming, hydropriming, priming with Algal and chia-seed extract biostimulants, scarification, and different combinations of them on seed germination. The results
