Relative pollen productivity estimates from India: A step towards quantitative reconstruction of past plant abundance

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Pollen records and models of pollen–vegetation relationships are required to reconstruct past plant abundances during the Holocene to answer specific questions on climate history, human impact, biodiversity, and their interactions. An important parameter for model applications is pollen productivity, estimated as relative pollen productivity ...

A new species of borassoid palm from the Neogene of Bengal Basin, India and its possible affinity with modern palmyra palm

Discover Geoscience
The tribe Borasseae (Coryphoideae) has a long fossil history since the Cretaceous–Paleogene (K-Pg) of the Deccan region of India. Several fossil borassoid palm species have been reported from different parts of India.

Evaluation of anti-inflammatory property of the roots of Borassus flabellifer

International Journal of Research in Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2020
Inflammation is a defense mechanism triggered by several agents and is observed as a co-morbid condition in various diseases such as cancer and diabetes. Chronic inflammation may lead to organ damage and mortality, and hence synthetic inflammatory agents are administered to cure inflammation.

Modification of the Performance of Fresh and Hardened Concrete Reinforced With Fibers From Oil Palm Mesocarp

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Currently, many researchers use industrial or agricultural by‐products (waste) as raw materials for the construction sector. These wastes are economical and help preserve the environment through good waste management. For this purpose, oil palm mesocarp fibers (OPMFs) are used at various volume concentrations (0%, 0.25%, 0.5%, and 1%) for the ...

A densely sampled nuclear phylogenomic analysis of the coryphoid palms (Arecaceae: Coryphoideae)

TAXON, Volume 74, Issue 6, Page 1372-1392, December 2025.
Abstract The palm family (Arecaceae) has a rich history of phylogenetic research, including several recent phylogenomic studies. However, densely sampled phylogenomic datasets for larger palm clades – such as subfamilies – are still few in number. We used target sequence capture to obtain data for 971 nuclear genes across 421 (ca.

Alkali‐Treated Borassus Husk Fiber Reinforced High‐Heat Resistant Epoxy: Insights Into Their Thermal, Dynamic Mechanical, and Outgassing Properties

Engineering Reports, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2025.
This study explores Borassus husk fiber/epoxy composites treated with 5% NaOH, showing enhanced thermal stability, mechanical strength, and damping properties. The 0.75‐h treated fiber achieved the highest thermal stability (IPDT: 525°C). Despite a slight drop in Tg, the composites outperformed other natural fiber counterparts.

Application of Carbon Quantum Dots in Food Business: A Comprehensive Review

eFood, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2025.
This approach is straightforward and practical in comparison to previous approaches because it speeds up the synthesis of CQDs while maintaining a high quantum yield. By heating the poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG‐200) for 2–10 min. However, there are several downsides of this technique, such as the nonuniform particle sizes of carbon quantum dots that ...
