Evolution of isoprene emission in Arecaceae (palms)
Evolutionary Applications, 2020 Isoprene synthase (IspS) is the sole enzyme in plants responsible for the yearly emission in the atmosphere of thousands of tonnes of the natural hydrocarbon isoprene worldwide.

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Habitat transformation in Amazon due to agriculture expansion impairs Melolonthidae diversity. Assemblage response towards habitat transformation are group‐dependent. Although highly disturbed, Amazon arc of deforestation region dwells sensitive insect assemblages. Abstract Although the Amazon provides crucial goods and ecosystem services for humanity,

Tissue culture of oil palm : finding the balance between mass propagation and somaclonal variation [PDF]
, 2019 The oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is typically propagated in vitro by indirect somatic embryogenesis, a process in which somatic cells of an explant of choice are, via an intermediate phase of callus growth, induced to differentiate into somatic ...

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The interactions between insects and angiosperms date back to millions of years ago. Among the groups of pollinating animals, it is estimated that insects are responsible for pollinating more than 70% of angiosperms. Coleoptera is one of the most studied insect groups for pollination.

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Beetle pollination is considered an ancestral trait in angiosperms, retained in a few specialised families engaging in longstanding interactions with ancient groups of beetles. While beetles represent some of the earliest angiosperm pollinators, there is also increasing evidence that some beetle‐pollinated plants represent a derived condition.

Stable isotope evidence of meat eating and hunting specialization in adult male chimpanzees [PDF]
, 2013 Observations of hunting and meat eating in our closest living relatives, chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes), suggest that among primates, regular inclusion of meat in the diet is not a characteristic unique to Homo.

Physiological roles of lignins – tuning cell wall hygroscopy and biomechanics
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Lignins constitute the second most abundant carbon‐storing biopolymers in the biosphere. These phenolic polymers accumulate in different concentrations, compositions, and localisations within and between cell wall layers and cell types. Lignins were acquired during plant terrestrialisation 450 million years ago, and the diversification of their

Microscopy Research and Technique, Volume 88, Issue 11, Page 2967-2976, November 2025.This study describes the pollen morphology of twelve endemic species from the Atlantic Forest, revealing subtle morphopollinic variations. Diagnostic characters such as pollen shape, exine ornamentation, and amb type highlight the region's floristic diversity, providing valuable insights into the ecological and conservation significance of Brazil's ...
