Peak values of twist‐to‐bend ratio in triangular flower stalks of Carex pendula: a study on biomechanics and functional morphology

American Journal of Botany, Volume 107, Issue 11, Page 1588-1596, November 2020., 2020
Premise Because of their own weight and additional wind forces, plants are exposed to various bending and torsional loads that sometimes require contradictory structural characteristics and mechanical properties. The resulting trade‐off between flexural and torsional rigidity can be quantified and compared using the dimensionless twist‐to‐bend ratio ...

Enhancing the Effectiveness of the YOLO Model Through Caladium Leaf Images Generated by Generative Adversarial Networks

Journal of Applied Engineering and Technological Science
The need for ornamental caladium plants is very popular, but there are several obstacles to recognizing its type. Caladium species classification using AI is needed to overcome the problem of misidentification among enthusiasts.

Exploration of Thiamin thiazole synthase (THI4) Expression and Transcriptomes Involved in the Floral Volatiles of Caladium bicolor

Horticulturae
4-methyl-5-vinylthiazole (MVT) is a significant volatile of caladium (Caladium bicolor) which produces a very high level of thiamin thiazole synthase (THI4) in male flowers.

New Caladium Cultivars ‘Dots Delight’ and ‘Wonderland’

EDIS, 2023
Caladiums are ornamental aroids valued for their vibrant and morphologically diverse foliage. Grower surveys indicated that they planted more acres of lance-leaved cultivars in recent decades to accommodate rising consumer demand. The caladium breeding program at the UF/IFAS Gulf Coast Research and Education Center has been developing new lance-leaved

Unrolling of Syngonium podophyllum: Functional Anatomy, Morphology and Modelling of Its Peltate Leaves

Advanced Biology, Volume 9, Issue 11, November 2025.
The unrolling of the peltate leaves in Syngonium podophyllum is analyzed and quantified (left‐hand side to center). These measurements serve to verify a mathematical model for leaf unrolling based on the model used in Schmidt (2007). An additional formula for obtaining a layer mismatch from a prescribed radius is derived.

Pest categorisation of Coccus viridis

EFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of Coccus viridis (Hemiptera: Coccidae), the green coffee scale, for the territory of the European Union (EU), following the commodity risk assessment of Jasminum polyanthum from Uganda, in which C. viridis was identified as a pest of possible concern to the EU.

Chemical Weed Control in Caladiums

HortScience, 1985
Abstract Eight herbicides were evaluated for phytotoxicity to field grown ‘Candidium’ caladiums (Caladium × hortulanum Birdsey) in 1983. The 4 most promising or currently used herbicides were evaluated for weed control and phytotoxicity in 1984. During 1984, 4 applications of 2.24 kg/ha alachlor, 2.24 kg/ha simazine, 1.68 kg/ha oryzalin, and 0.56 kg/ha

An elevational cline in leaf variegation: Testing anti‐herbivory and abiotic heterogeneity hypotheses in maintaining a polymorphism

American Journal of Botany, Volume 111, Issue 10, October 2024.
Abstract Premise While some studies have found leaf variegation to reduce photosynthetic capacity, others showed that it can increase photosynthesis. Thus, what maintains variegation remains an open question. Two primary hypotheses—the anti‐herbivory and abiotic heterogeneity hypotheses—have been posited, yet little empirical research explicitly ...

Chloroplast capture and range extension after hybridization in taro (Colocasia esculenta)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2024.
Complete chloroplast genome sequences from wild and cultivated taro (Colocasia esculenta) and closely related Colocasia species provide a well‐supported phylogenetic tree with three main chloroplast lineages. Two of these (CI and CIII) appear to be involved in an ancient history of hybridization, chloroplast capture, and range extension.

Morphological, Cytological, and Molecular-Based Genetic Stability Analysis of In Vitro-Propagated Plants from Newly Induced Aneuploids in Caladium

Agriculture, 2022
Aneuploids are valuable materials of genetic diversity for genetic analysis and improvement in diverse plant species, which can be propagated mainly via in vitro culture methods.
