Pest categorisation of Milviscutulus mangiferae
EFSA Journal, Volume 21, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023 Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of Milviscutulus mangiferae (Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha: Coccidae), the mango shield scale, for the EU. The native range of M. mangiferae is uncertain. This species occurs widely in tropical and warmer subtropical regions throughout the world.

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 64-79, January 2023., 2023 A phylogenomic study of Amorphophallus from plastid DNA revealed a new scenario and timeline for the evolution of the main clades, consistent with their morphological characteristics, past climate dynamics, and long‐distance dispersal events across the genus. Abstract Encompassing ca.

The endodermal passage cell – just another brick in the wall?
New Phytologist, Volume 230, Issue 4, Page 1321-1328, May 2021., 2021 Summary The endodermis surrounds and protects the vasculature partly by depositing hydrophobic suberin in the cell walls. Yet, some cells remain unsuberised. These historically termed ‘passage cells’ are assumed to provide a low‐resistance pathway to the xylem. Only recently have we started to gain molecular insights into these cells, which allow us to

Perception gaps that may explain the status of taro (Colocasia esculenta) as an “orphan crop”
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 99-112, March 2021., 2021 Using Taro (Colocasia esculenta) as a case study, we examine how perception gaps contribute to negative feedback loops that create or maintain the orphan status of certain crops. For students and researchers seeking uncrowded areas for study, orphan crops and crop‐wild‐relatives offer large open spaces, figuratively and literally.

The antagonistic MYB paralogs RH1 and RH2 govern anthocyanin leaf markings in Medicago truncatula
New Phytologist, Volume 229, Issue 6, Page 3330-3344, March 2021., 2021 Summary Patterned leaf coloration in plants generates remarkable diversity in nature, but the underlying mechanisms remain largely unclear. Here, using Medicago truncatula leaf marking as a model, we show that the classic M. truncatula leaf anthocyanin spot trait depends on two R2R3 MYB paralogous regulators, RED HEART1 (RH1) and RH2.

Refining the phylogeny of Crambidae with complete sampling of subfamilies (Lepidoptera, Pyraloidea)
Zoologica Scripta, Volume 50, Issue 1, Page 84-99, January 2021., 2021 Abstract Crambidae is a group of moths with more than 10,000 species occurring worldwide that evolved diverse morphological and ecological habits. They can be best recognized by morphological characters of the adult tympanal organ and larval chaetotaxy. We present the first molecular phylogeny of Crambidae including all subfamilies and most tribes.

Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021 Studies on medicinal ethnobotany in rural areas and communities are important for documentation and generation of indigenous knowledge on the medicinal use of plants, as well as identification of new botanicals of pharmacological significance. This paper presents, for the first time, the quantitative ethnobotanical uses of medicinal plants in Ile‐Ife ...

Screening for Resistance to Pythium Root Rot among Twenty-three Caladium Cultivars
EDIS, 2005 Pythium root rot, caused by Pythium myriotylum (Ridings and Hartman, 1976), is a very damaging disease to caladium plants (Caladium x hortulanum). Use of disease-resistant cultivars has been an effective and economically viable strategy for integrated ...
