Tetraopes Milkweed Beetle Genomes Elucidate the Adaptive Basis of a Temperate Coevolutionary Radiation. [PDF]
Mol Ecol ResourABSTRACT 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 ...

Sclerified Cork Outperforms the Exodermis: Root Water Permeability Decreases in the Soil-To-Canopy Transition of the Aroid Vine Epipremnum aureum. [PDF]
Physiol PlantABSTRACT 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 ...

Weed Research, Volume 66, Issue 3, May/June 2026.ABSTRACT Calotropis procera and C. gigantea are emerging as globally invasive plants that can significantly alter ecosystems in areas where they have escaped from attended cultivation. Without effective management, these species can form dense monospecific stands, resulting in severe economic, environmental and social impacts.

Ecological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 3, April 2026.Abstract In a time of unprecedented global change, understanding plant community responses to contemporary disturbance regimes is necessary to improve the predictability of restoration outcomes. Although fires in tallgrass prairies historically occurred throughout the growing season, contemporary prescribed fires are often conducted during the dormant ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.We investigate the stratification of five clades of Lepidoptera: Erebidae‐Arctiinae, Geometridae, Hedylidae, Saturniidae, and Sphingidae in a tropical rain forest of the Chocó region in NW Ecuador. Average species richness was higher in the understory, median sample sizes were similar between strata and we found more species in regenerating forests ...

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.

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 ...
