Türkiye lies at the intersection of three global biodiversity hotspots yet is recognised as a global plant‐diversity "dark spot." Using > 15,000 georeferenced herbarium records and spatial regression models, we examined the environmental drivers of Brassicaceae species and endemic richness across the country. Species richness increased with topographic

Wing and Pappus Appendages Decrease Seed Terminal Velocity: A Meta‐Analysis
This meta‐analysis integrated terminal velocity records for 1479 species from various sources and explored descriptive patterns by taxonomic group, seed dispersal vector, and seed appendage type. This study revealed that wing and pappus appendage decrease seed terminal velocity with a robust analysis using regression models to predict terminal velocity.

ABSTRACT Sustainable agriculture is an important component of current and future food production, particularly in the face of the rising human world population. In this context, faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is highly valuable due to its capability to enrich soils with nitrogen and because its seeds have a high nutritional value. In this study, we compared
