Histochemical Evidence for Nitrogen-Transfer Endosymbiosis in Non-Photosynthetic Cells of Leaves and Inflorescence Bracts of Angiosperms

open access: yesBiology, 2022
We used light and confocal microscopy to visualize bacteria in leaf and bract cells of more than 30 species in 18 families of seed plants. Through histochemical analysis, we detected hormones (including ethylene and nitric oxide), superoxide, and ...

A new species of Monanthotaxis from Gabon with a unique inflorescence type for Annonaceae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Monanthotaxis Baillon (1890: 878) currently consists of 56 species (Rainer & Chatrou 2006) confined to tropical Africa and Madagascar and is the second most species-rich genus of Annonaceae in Africa after Uvaria Linnaeus (1753: 536).

Creation of a Pseudotsuga menziesii nucellus cell suspension culture system to produce proteins involved in reproduction

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Cell suspension cultures of Douglas‐fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) nucellus were created to overcome phenological limitations to the in situ study of bioactive proteins within and secreted by nucellar cells. Methods Proteins isolated from the cell suspension culture medium were analyzed using mass spectrometry, as were Douglas‐fir post ...

Phylogenomics and Biogeography of the Eastern Asian–Eastern North American Disjunct Genus Hylodesmum (Fabaceae)

open access: yesBiological Diversity, EarlyView.
Integrating data from plastid genomes, nrDNA, and 353 low‐copy nuclear genes, this study establishes a robust phylogenetic framework for Hylodesmum. This framework supports a taxonomic revision recognizing 18 species and reveals a complex pattern of bidirectional EA–ENA dispersal, with mammals as a plausible dispersal agent. ABSTRACT Phylogenomics with

Early evolutionary history of the seed

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The seed is an essential stage in the life history of gymnospermous and angiospermous plants, facilitating both their survival and dispersal. We reappraise knowledge of the evolutionary history of the gymnospermous seed, from its origin in the late Devonian through to the well‐known end‐Permian extinctions – an interval encompassing the ...

Human appreciation of flower colours as cultural ecosystem service in grasslands: A methodological approach

open access: yesGrassland Research, EarlyView.
This literature‐based method estimates human appreciation of flower colours on target grasslands. Step 1: search literature sources (floristic surveys, national floras, web datasets and preference studies). Step 2: flower trait extraction (flower colour and area, flowering period and human colour appreciation scale).

Needle‐shaped diatom frustules in food as a possible promoter of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma in coastal southeastern China: A pilot study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) incidence varies worldwide, suggesting that local environmental and dietary factors are influential. In coastal southeastern China, food products derived from small filter‐feeding fish are important dietary components, though their consumption increased ESCC risk.
