Pollination ecology of the invasive tree tobacco nicotiana glauca: comparisons across native and non-native ranges [PDF]
Interactions with pollinators are thought to play a significant role in determining whether plant species become invasive, and ecologically generalised species are predicted to be more likely to invade than more specialised species. Using published and

Gene Editing and Transformation Strategies for Engineering Drought‐Tolerant Legumes
ABSTRACT Legumes play a vital role in agriculture, nutrition, and the economy, but their production faces significant threats. Among these, drought and its unpredictability will be the most damaging constraint in the coming decades. Enhancing drought tolerance is essential for resilient and sustainable legume cultivation, and genetic engineering ...

Plants and Insect Eggs: First Report of a Katydid Using a Fern as Host for Oviposition
Ferns are the second most diverse lineage of vascular plants worldwide and are particularly abundant in tropical forests. However, the ecological significance of such remarkable diversity has been often underestimated. In this article, we report for the first time the observation of ferns, specifically Polytaenium cajenense (Desv.) Benedict ...

Leaf Length Predicts Twig Xylem Vessel Diameter Across Angiosperms
ABSTRACT As plants grow taller, increasing conductive pathlength imposes hydraulic resistance, challenging the maintenance of water transport to leaves. While tip‐to‐base conduit widening along the stem helps mitigate this resistance, theoretical models and empirical data suggest that stem widening alone is insufficient to fully compensate.

The tasiR‐ARF pathway in plants: origin, functions, and interplay of miR‐390, tasiRNAs and ARF3
Trans‐acting small interfering RNAs that silence a subset of Auxin Response Factors are crucial for plant growth, developmental timing, proper organ patterning, and coping with stress. Abstract Trans‐acting small interfering RNA (tasiRNAs) are a special type of endogenous small RNAs (sRNAs) found only in plants.
