Perspectives and behaviors surrounding planting practices in North America inform genetic conservation realities for American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius)

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
American ginseng is a shade‐obligate, North American medicinal plant that is widely traded and used internationally. To meet global demand, ginseng is cultivated in forest farms in the Appalachian region of the USA and field‐based artificial shade farms in two regions: Ontario, Canada and Wisconsin, USA. We conducted social research leveraging in‐depth

Exploring Costa Rica's fungal trends: Insights from digitized specimens

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Fungi are essential to tropical ecosystems but remain largely absent from conservation agendas. By analyzing over 78,000 fungal records from Costa Rica—a globally recognized biodiversity hotspot—this study reveals key patterns in fungal diversity, distribution, and seasonality.

A national crop wild relative checklist for Zimbabwe reveals edible crop wild relative diversity of regional and global importance

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Crop wild relatives (CWR) in Zimbabwe are reservoirs of beneficial agronomic traits, yet they remain under‐documented and poorly conserved. This study developed Zimbabwe's first national CWR checklist based on a conceptual framework combining floristic, ecological and ethnobotanical data, revealing over 2700 taxa, with nearly 1000 edible species ...

Gene turnover in the common ancestor of all C4 grasses

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Understanding how plants evolve more efficient photosynthesis is important in a warming world where improving crop productivity and resilience is a global priority. By generating the first reference genomes for an early‐diverging group of grasses called the Aristidoideae, we were able to reconstruct the genetic makeup of the last common ancestor of all

The most threatened plants receive the least scientific attention

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Plants sustain all life, providing the energetic and structural basis of ecosystems, but they face a growing risk of extinction. Reversing this decline requires an understanding of how scientific knowledge is distributed among species, and identification of the biases and gaps that hinder effective responses to the threats they face. However, we reveal
