Bulbil formation in stress: Crucial role of triploid fitness in mixed ploidy dynamics in Costus speciosus

Plant Species Biology, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
Upon prolonged waterlogging, a Costus speciosus plant developed bulbils at stem node. Karyotype analysis, nucleolar staining, and anatomical study revealed its triploid status and developmental aspects. Prevalence of tetraploid, abundance, and unique reproductive fecundity of the triploid, indicates its determinant role in coexistence of the multiple ...

Enhancing Neglected and Underutilized Crop Species (NUCS) in Nepal: Unlocking Their Potential for Climate Resilience, Food Security, and Agrobiodiversity

Advances in Agriculture, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background The global dominance of a few major cereal crops has led to the marginalization of traditional species, reducing agrobiodiversity and increasing the vulnerability of food systems. Changing climate conditions, particularly intensifying drought stress, further threaten global food security.

New species of Amorphophallus (Araceae) in the Philippines and an updated key

Blumea - Biodiversity, Evolution and Biogeography of Plants, 2020
The number of named Philippine species of the genus Amorphophallus ( Araceae-Thomsonieae)amounts to 13 today. Three existing species names (not included in this count) cannot be attributed to presently recognized species for lack of their holotypes, which were all destroyed in WWII.

Proteomic insights on root and tuber crops’ response to abiotic stress—A review

Crop Science, Volume 65, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
Abstract Root and tuber crops are a good source of food energy on a global scale, particularly in African and Asian nations. Nevertheless, these crops can be susceptible to abiotic stresses such as excessive heat, high salinity, drought, and nutrient deficiencies, which have detrimental effects on the physiological and metabolic processes of the plants,

Efficient Pollination Stinks: Corpse Flowers Use Floral Trapping and Persistent Emissions

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 18, 28 September 2025.
Abstract Flowering corpse plants attract pollinating carrion insects through pungent, nocturnal odors. Female flowers primarily emit organosulfur, including ∼12gS/hour as methanethiol with mixing ratios comparable to landfills; male emissions are smaller and more diverse.

Yunweiling alleviates functional constipation: integrating network pharmacology and experimental study

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, Volume 8, Issue 7, Page 1277-1291, July 2025.
In a study combining network pharmacological analysis and experimental verification, yunweiling has been shown improve functional constipation by inhibiting the PI3K‐Akt‐p53 signaling pathway and reducing the expression of TP53. Abstract Background This study investigated the impacts and mechanisms of yunweiling in the management of Functional ...
