Floral organ sequences in Apiales (Apiaceae, Araliaceae, Pittosporaceae)

South African Journal of Botany, 2004
It is remarkable that families like Apiaceae and Brassicaceae, characterised by uniform floral diagrams (i.e. stable positioning of floral organs relative to one another), show a great variability in initiation sequence of the floral organs. Within the subfamily Saniculoideae of the Apiaceae temporal overlaps in the initiation of the floral whorls ...

The biology and thermal requirements of the fennel aphid Hyadaphis foeniculi (Passerini) (Hemiptera: Aphididae). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
The relationship between the insect development rate and temperature was established very early and represents an important ecological variable for modeling the population dynamics of insects. The accurate determination of thermal constant values and the

Enhancing Stored Wheat Shelf Life: Advances in Storage Technologies, Integrated Pest Management, and Climate‐Responsive Approaches

Food and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent advances in agricultural production and storage systems have contributed to a significant enhancement in annual wheat production and preservation, aimed at satisfying increasing consumer demands. Despite such potential developments, there are still significant post‐harvest losses in stored wheat, induced by destructive pests, grain ...

INTRODUCTION. EVOLUTION, BIOGEOGRAPHY AND SYSTEMATICS OF THE APIALES (ARALIACEAE AND APIACEAE)

Edinburgh Journal of Botany, 2001
The family Apiaceae (Umbelliferae) can be credited with two major landmarks in botanical history: the first systematic monographic treatment of any plant group (Morison, 1672), and the first international symposium dedicated to systematic research on a plant family (Heywood, 1971).

Assembly of Australia's Alpine Seed Plant Flora

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT To characterise the assembly of Australia's distinctive native alpine seed plant flora. Past events when species were sequestered into the alpine habitat from warmer climates and/or distant regions were identified using published phylogenies and distribution information.

The role of Alpine botanical gardens in integrating germplasm bank collections and mission

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 680-692, March 2026.
This study underscores the vital role of Alpine botanical gardens (ABGs) in safeguarding Europe's alpine biodiversity amid climate change and habitat loss. By acting as living laboratories and reservoirs of plant genetic resources, ABGs bridge ex situ and in situ conservation, supporting ecosystem resilience and informing restoration strategies.

Investigating Anthropogenic and Social Influences on Diet of Semi‐Urban Vervet Monkeys Using DNA Metabarcoding

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
We used eDNA metabarcoding of faecal samples to quantify the dietary composition of two vervet monkey populations in a semi‐urban environment in South Africa over a 4‐month period, and compared these results with visual observations. We found that both methods yielded similar results, but eDNA metabarcoding revealed a greater diversity of consumed taxa.
