Phylogeny of subtribe Gonolobinae (Apocynaceae‐Asclepiadoideae) based on molecular and morphological data with a revised generic classification

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract The presently most densely sampled molecular phylogeny of the widespread New World subtribe Gonolobinae is presented, including about 35% of the ca. 520 species. Sampling focused on an even representation of the three main areas of total Gonolobinae distribution, South America, Central/North America, and the West Indian Islands, and the ...

Tetraopes Milkweed Beetle Genomes Elucidate the Adaptive Basis of a Temperate Coevolutionary Radiation

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 3, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The coevolutionary radiation of 27 species of Tetraopes longhorned beetles and their Asclepias milkweed hosts represents a classic example of adaptive evolution driven by plant chemical defences and herbivore counteradaptations. Investigations to date, however, have focused on a single species, Tetraopes tetrophthalmus, which feeds on the ...

Prospective of indigenous African wild food plants in alleviation of the severe iron deficiency anaemia in Sub‐Saharan Africa

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 486-498, March 2026.
Iron deficiency anaemia remains a major public health challenge in Sub‐Saharan Africa, where population growth, displacement and limited resources heighten nutritional insecurity. We compiled a list of indigenous African underutilized wild food plants and examined their potential for addressing micronutrient deficiencies.

Common milkweed gardens increase occupancy by monarch butterflies and other specialist herbivores towards an urban centre

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 2, Page 380-392, March 2026.
We surveyed 119 stands of common milkweed (Asclepias syriaca) across an urbanisation gradient to investigate how restored garden habitat might ameliorate the negative effects of urbanisation on specialist herbivores. Surprisingly, we found most herbivores (including the monarch butterfly) had greater occupancy on common milkweed towards an urban centre.

Sclerified Cork Outperforms the Exodermis: Root Water Permeability Decreases in the Soil‐To‐Canopy Transition of the Aroid Vine Epipremnum aureum

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT The aroid vine Epipremnum aureum undergoes changes in habitat and growth axis direction from terrestrial (plagiotropic) to canopy (orthotropic) conditions. Since aerial roots connected to the forest soil are vital for water and nutrient uptake in these vines, we hypothesize that morphophysiological acclimation occurs, enabling root survival ...

DNA barcoding of authentic and substitute samples of herb of the family Asparagaceae and Asclepiadaceae based on the ITS2 region

Journal of Ayurveda and Integrative Medicine, 2012
Background : Herbal drugs used to treat illness according to Ayurveda are often misidentified or adulterated with similar plant materials. Objective: To aid taxonomical identification, we used DNA barcoding to evaluate authentic and substitute samples of

Stem anatomy and ontogeny of vascular variants in Ipomoea asarifolia (Desr.) Roem. & Schult. (Convolvulaceae)

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 2, February 2026.
An increase in stem thickness and ontogeny of successive cambia, intraxylary cambium, and inter‐and intraxylary phloem is elaborated for the first time in Ipomoea asarifolia (Desr.) Roem. & Schult. (Convolvulaceae). As the plants grew older, several small segments of cambium were initiated simultaneously external to the phloem formed by regular ...
