Natural Products from Mexican Medicinal Plants as Promising Trypanocidal Drugs

ChemistrySelect, Volume 10, Issue 37, October 6, 2025.
Chagas disease (American Trypanosomiasis) is caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi. Worldwide it is one of the seventeen neglected tropical diseases. There is a need of new drugs. This review assesses the literature (2012‐2024) of secondary metabolites isolated from Mexican plants active against this parasite.

Multimodal floral cues resembling both generalized food sources and oviposition sites in Isotrema manshuriense (Aristolochiaceae) pollinated by flies

Plant Biology, Volume 27, Issue 6, Page 1058-1070, October 2025.
The protogynous flowers of Isotrema manshuriense exhibit multimodal cues, resembling both generalized food sources and fly oviposition sites, with these cues varying across sexual phases. Abstract The genus Aristolochia is renowned for its kettle‐like trap flowers that temporarily retain visiting insects, primarily using trapping trichomes.

Range Shifts of the Endangered Luehdorfia chinensis chinensis (Lepidoptera, Papilionidae) and Its Specific Hosts in China Under Climate Change

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2025.
This study forecasted the climate‐driven distribution shifts of China's endangered Luehdorfia chinensis chinensis and its two host plants using Biomod2 ensemble models. Precipitation was identified as the key factor shaping their ranges, with the butterfly's future habitat projected to expand slightly, and the hosts showed divergent shifts and niche ...

A Short‐Read Amplicon Sequencing Protocol and Bioinformatic Pipeline for Ecological Surveillance of Dipteran Disease Vectors

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 6, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Vector control remains an important strategy worldwide to prevent human infection with pathogens transmitted by arthropods. Vector control strategies rely on accurate identification of vector taxa along with vector‐specific biological indicators such as feeding ecology, infection prevalence and insecticide resistance.

Diverging repeatomes in holoparasitic Hydnoraceae uncover a playground of genome evolution

New Phytologist, Volume 247, Issue 3, Page 1520-1537, August 2025.
Summary The transition from an autotrophic to a heterotrophic lifestyle is associated with numerous genomic changes. These often involve large genomic alterations, potentially driven by repetitive DNAs. Despite their recognized role in shaping plant genomes, the contribution of repetitive DNAs to parasitic plant genome evolution remains largely ...
