The pistil as a traffic light: Yellow‐to‐red color change likely influences pollinator visitation patterns in Saxifraga fortunei (Saxifragaceae)

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Flowers can communicate reproductive status to pollinators through visual cues. In Saxifraga fortunei, pistils often changed from yellow to red after pollination, and hoverflies and honeybees preferentially visited flowers with yellow pistils. This pattern suggests that a post‐pollination color shift confined to the pistil can reduce revisits to ...

Botanic and heritage gardens as living laboratories in the age of the polycrisis

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Societal Impact Statement Cities face intertwined crises of climate, biodiversity loss and social disconnection. We show how botanic and heritage gardens can help address these challenges as living laboratories to generate place‐based evidence and public engagement.

Looking backward to move forward: Enhancing metadata in scientific collections through interdisciplinary collaboration

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Early modern herbaria house important and useful data on historic environments. However, their contents are often inhospitable to scientific use. Despite this challenge, once their contents have been deciphered, such specimens present novel research opportunities.
