From settler gardens to digital naturalists: human aesthetic preferences and land use changes facilitate the biogeographical expansion of a wild plant–virus interaction

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Anthropogenic facilitation of wild plants based on aesthetic preferences for particular traits can change the biogeography and ecology of natural communities. We use a mixed‐methods socioecological approach to characterize the ways in which humans interact with a common, widely distributed plant and a generalist viral symbiont that induces an ...

The biogeography and biodiversity of the Namibian intertidal seaweed flora [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Bibliography: leaves 149-160.There have been very few intertidal studies carried out on the Namibian coast. With respect to seaweeds in particular there have been a number of species lists and shore descriptions, but very little research into the ...

Grape (Vitis L.) biodiversity: Historical uses, current status, and future potential

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Grapes (Vitis L. ‐ Vitaceae) are among the most important fruit crops globally, consumed in the form of wine, fresh fruit, raisins, and in many products. Complex and fascinating biocultural processes underpin the crop, with a remarkable assemblage of species comprising grapevines and with heterogeneous viticultural practices and rapidly advancing new ...

Social‐ecological signatures in plant species composition across Swiss cities and urban green space types

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Cities can harbor greater plant diversity than other ecosystems, yet how city sociocultural factors may determine differences in plant composition across equivalent urban green space types remains understudied. Here, we compare plant communities in five main urban greenspace types across three Swiss cities representing the country's French (Geneva ...

Enhance food plant diversity conservation and use through greater coordination between genebanks and botanic gardens

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Food plants are vital to human and planetary health, but their diversity is threatened, making food security, nutrition, and environmental goals more difficult to achieve. Food plant diversity conservation, research, and education can be enhanced through collaboration between sectors, including genebanks and botanic gardens, which possess complementary

Re-evaluating the general dynamic theory of oceanic island biogeography

open access: yes, 2013
[Departement_IRSTEA]Territoires [TR1_IRSTEA]SEDYVINThe general dynamic model of oceanic island biogeography integrates temporal changes in ecological circumstances with diversification processes, and has stimulated current research in island biogeography.

WorldCuP: A database of checklists documenting the World's Cultivated Plants and their distributions

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Human life would be unrecognizable without the benefits of cultivated plants, including crops, ornamentals, or plants with other uses. Despite their importance in daily life and prevalence across landscapes, we know surprisingly little about global cultivated plant distributions.
