Analysis of anther dehydration: a process required for anther dehiscence and pollen release

open access: yes, 2018
In flowering plants, the opening of the anther to release pollen is carefully timed to maximise reproductive potential. Manipulation of this process is an important tool for plant breeding and the production of hybrid crops. Dehydration of the anther epidermis, combined with the presence of secondary thickening within the endothecium layer, is required

Barbacenia pendula sp. nov.(Velloziaceae) from the northern Espinhaço Range of Minas Gerais, Brazil

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
Although botanical exploration in the Espinhaço Range has increased in recent years, several areas remain poorly sampled, particularly in northern Minas Gerais. Recently, this area has been receiving scientific expeditions, leading to the description of several new plant species.

Aiouea riedeliana comb. nov. (Lauraceae) from Brazil, with an amended description and provisional extinction threat assessment

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
Aiouea riedeliana (Kosterm.) P.L.R.Moraes and Brotto is the new combination for Cinnamomum riedelianum Kosterm., whose type‐bringing synonym is Persea riedelii Meisn. The placement of this taxon in Aiouea is presented, justified, and illustrated here, disagreeing with its previous classification in Ocotea, as Ocotea riedeliana (Kosterm.) Kottaim., then

Squills vs. Hyacinths – A revised genus delimitation in Hyacinthinae (Hyacintheae, Scilloideae, Asparagaceae) based on phylogenomics

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Scilla s.l. (Asparagaceae: Scilloideae) represents a notable Mediterranean geophyte radiation, yet genus delimitation in subtribe Hyacinthinae has long suffered from inconsistent and conflicting generic concepts. A limited set of informative morphological characters and recurrent shifts in circumscription have repeatedly hindered progress ...

Large‐flowered stapeliad Edithcolea grandis (Apocynaceae: Asclepiadoideae) is pollinated by dung‐ and blood‐feeding African face flies (Muscidae: Musca xanthomelas)

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract The more than 360 species of stem‐succulent stapeliads in the tribe Ceropegieae represent a perfect example for species radiation and diversification in response to pollination by flies. In the majority of species, the myiophilous flowers have visual and olfactory characteristics that suggest carrion or dung mimicry.
