Taxonomic insights into Indian Rotala (Lythraceae) species with verticillate phyllotaxy
Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.In an effort to resolve taxonomic complexities among Indian Rotala species with verticillate phyllotaxy, this study provides an identification key, revised nomenclature, updated morphological descriptions including SEM studies of seed coat surfaces, detailed photoplates, and notes on phenology, ecology, and distribution.

Hechtia mixtecana sp. nov. (Hechtioideae; Bromeliaceae), from Oaxaca, Mexico
Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.Botanical explorations carried out in the state of Oaxaca, Mexico, led to the discovery of a new Bromeliaceae: Hechtia mixtecana,which is here described and illustrated. The new taxon is compared with the morphologically similar Hechtia fragilis, Hechtia lyman‐smithii, and Hechtia minuta.

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1127-1137, May 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Pollination is a key tenet of ecosystem sustainability and food security, but it is threatened by climate change. While many studies investigated the response of plant‐pollination traits to temperature, few attempted multifactorial and integrative approaches with ...

Forest type influence on Heliconia‐dipteran interaction networks
Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 660-674, May 2026.Responses to forest type depended on the developmental stage of dipterans. Bract traits and forest type influenced larval abundance, but forest type had no impact on adult alpha and beta diversity. Heliconia‐dipteran interaction networks showed a nested pattern for both forest types.

Scaling law links plant growth variation to grain yield in wheat stands
New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 4, Page 2163-2175, May 2026.Summary Growth rate, a fundamental trait associated with plant resource use, scales with plant mass, following consistent allometric power laws shaped by biophysical constraints and natural selection captured in metabolic scaling theory (MST). Although well‐established in wild plants, MST has been overlooked in crop improvement.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 3371-3390, May 2026.ABSTRACT The escalating global temperatures and intensifying heat stress events pose significant threats to maize productivity worldwide. Uncovering key thermotolerance genes and their functional mechanisms is thus critical for developing climate‐resilient crops.
