Enabling evolutionary studies at multiple scales in Apocynaceae through Hyb-Seq. [PDF]
Premise Apocynaceae is the 10th largest flowering plant family and a focus for study of plant–insect interactions, especially as mediated by secondary metabolites. However, it has few genomic resources relative to its size. Target capture sequencing is a powerful approach for genome reduction that facilitates studies requiring data from the nuclear ...

A fishing expedition to discover the pollinators of several subtropical Apocynaceae. [PDF]
Premise Flowers of the Apocynaceae (milkweed family) have complex structures and pollination mechanisms. Pollen removal and deposition in Angadenia, Pentalinon, and Echites are similar, with anthers releasing pollen onto the sterile style head. The mid‐style head excretes a glue that coats the mouthparts of vistors to aid in the transfer of pollen ...

The occurrence of nonarticulated laticifers has been recorded in the literature for Apocynaceae, but little information is available on their structure and the chemical compounds in their latex. The objective of this study was to describe, anatomically and histochemically, the laticifers and latex found in the roots, stems, and leaves of Mandevilla ...

Evolution of pyrrolizidine alkaloid biosynthesis in Apocynaceae: revisiting the defence de-escalation hypothesis. [PDF]
Summary Plants produce specialized metabolites for their defence. However, specialist herbivores adapt to these compounds and use them for their own benefit. Plants attacked predominantly by specialists may be under selection to reduce or eliminate production of co‐opted chemicals: the defence de‐escalation hypothesis.

Isolated Grauer's gorilla populations differ in diet and gut microbiome
Abstract The animal gut microbiome has been implicated in a number of key biological processes, ranging from digestion to behaviour, and has also been suggested to facilitate local adaptation. Yet studies in wild animals rarely compare multiple populations that differ ecologically, which is the level at which local adaptation may occur.
