Begonia quadricornualata sp. nov. (Begoniaceae) from India
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.A new species of Begonia L. (Begoniaceae) belonging to sect. Platycentrum is described from the Papum Pare District of Arunachal Pradesh, India. This new species is distinguished by its dense, long, red to brown hispid hairs on the adaxial leaf surface of female plants, caducous stipules and bracts, and solitary‐flowered female inflorescence ...

Taxonomic revision of the genus Tzveleviochloa (Poaceae, Aveninae) in India
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.The taxonomy of Tzveleviochloa in India is revised based on morphological evidence, comprehensive observations of herbarium specimens and field records, and several botanical explorations in the study area. The accepted diversity is increased from two to five species, including two recently described species. The genus is distributed in the Western and

Diversification of myco-heterotrophic angiosperms: evidence from Burmanniaceae. [PDF]
, 2008 Background - Myco-heterotrophy evolved independently several times during angiosperm evolution. Although many species of myco-heterotrophic plants are highly endemic and long-distance dispersal seems unlikely, some genera are widely dispersed and have ...

Primula himalayana sp. nov., a new species from eastern Himalaya, India
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Primula himalayana sp. nov., a new species of Primulaceae, is described and illustrated from Tawang, Lutrem, 4238 m a.s.l., Arunachal Pradesh, India. It grows under Juniperus and Berberis scrub forest in an alpine meadow. The new species belong in Primula section Cordifoliae and is resembling P.

Evolutionary voyage of angiosperm vessel structure-function and its significance for early angiosperm success [PDF]
, 2012 A hypothesized advantage of the building block of the angiosperm vascular network, the vessel, is often cited as a critical innovation that elevated the competitive abilities of early angiosperms above nonangiosperms during the Cretaceous.

Fruit‐quality tradeoffs generate asymmetry in plant reliance on mutualistic frugivores
Oikos, EarlyView.Seed dispersal is a fundamental ecological process influencing the evolution of plant life‐history strategies. In fleshy‐fruited plants dispersed by mutualistic frugivores, variation in fruit traits among closely related species may shape the temporal and spatial dynamics of dispersal events critical to population success.

Early Cretaceous angiosperm pollen from a low-latitude succession (Araripe Basin, NE Brazil) [PDF]
, 2010 The radiation of flowering plants during the Cretaceous represents a marked evolutionary turnover from gymnosperm- to angiosperm-dominated ecosystems within a time span of about 30 Ma.

Age ratio in groups of a social ungulate affects epizoochorous dispersal and diaspore exchanges
Oikos, EarlyView.Animal‐mediated seed dispersal is a key process in plant population dynamics, species distribution and ecosystem functioning. As long‐distance dispersal agents, ungulates help to maintain native plant populations facing abiotic changes in their habitat and habitat fragmentation or habitat loss.
