Biochemical Adaptations of Zea mays L. to Abiotic Stress: A Focus on Drought, Salinity, and Heavy Metals

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Maize (Zea mays L.), one of the most significant cereal crops in the world, is very susceptible to abiotic stresses that include drought, salinity, and heavy metal toxicity, among others, all of which pose a risk to food and nutrition security in the face of climate change.

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

TAXON, 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)

TAXON, 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.

Potential for Expanding Sorghum Production in Europe in the Face of Climate Change

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Today, sorghum is a minor crop in Europe cultivated on only ∼0.1% of the cropland area. Nonetheless, sorghum is of growing interest due to its high heat tolerance compared to other crops and better adaptation to future hot and dry summers. In this study, we investigated the feasibility of expanding sorghum cultivation in Europe under current ...

When Bigger Is not Better: Corolla Length Increases Nectar Robbing in Aloe secundiflora Engl. (Asphodelaceae)

African Journal of Ecology, Volume 64, Issue 7, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Nectar robbing is a widespread but unevenly documented component of plant–pollinator interactions, and quantitative assessments from African savanna systems remain limited. Based on a short field survey conducted over two consecutive days, this study quantified the frequency and reproductive consequences of nectar robbing in a population of ...
