Macronutrient composition in pollen affects development and survival in wild bees

open access: yesPhysiological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 350-362, June 2026.
Small carpenter bees (Ceratina calcarata) were reared on diets formulated with black poplar and dandelion pollen, while closely monitoring developmental metrics, lipid content and survival. Macronutrient analyses on both pollen types revealed dandelion pollen contained lower levels of protein, essential amino acids and several fatty acids, which ...

Ancient hybridization and phylogenetic discordance: Exploring evolutionary complexity in Asteraceae

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, Volume 14, Issue 3, May-June 2026.
Abstract Premise Conflicting phylogenetic signals are common in plant phylogenomics and often reflect evolutionary histories shaped by processes like hybridization, incomplete lineage sorting, and whole‐genome duplication (WGD). We aimed to identify and assess these complex processes in the hyper‐diverse family Asteraceae to offer insight into the ...

Plastid and nuclear phylogenomics of Cyphostemma (Vitaceae) provide new insights into genome size evolution across sub‐Saharan Africa

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 5, Page 1399-1420, May 2026.
Some African Cyphostemma species evolved much larger genomes as they adapted to dry, rocky habitats. These expansions are linked to succulent traits and specialization on nutrient‐rich limestone outcrops. The findings show how climate‐driven aridification shaped plant evolution and highlight broader genome‐environment patterns across flowering plants ...

The role of Alpine botanical gardens in integrating germplasm bank collections and mission

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 680-692, March 2026.
This study underscores the vital role of Alpine botanical gardens (ABGs) in safeguarding Europe's alpine biodiversity amid climate change and habitat loss. By acting as living laboratories and reservoirs of plant genetic resources, ABGs bridge ex situ and in situ conservation, supporting ecosystem resilience and informing restoration strategies.
