Extraction and Comprehensive Characterization of Starch From Ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum L.) Seeds as a Non‐Conventional Source

open access: yesStarch - Stärke, Volume 78, Issue 1, January 2026.
A native starch was extracted from ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum L.), yielding a high‐purity product with a significant starch content. The starch exhibited type A and V crystallinity, with a mean particle size (D50) ~7 nm, high swelling power, and low retrogradation tendency.

Micropropagation of Calathea ornata Koern.

open access: yesBiologia plantarum, 1997
In vitro cultures of Calathea ornata Koern. cv. Sanderiana shoots were maintained on modified medium of Murashige and Skoog. With the aim to find effective micropropagation method the effects of cytokinins, paclobutrazol, saccharose, mineral salts and shoot-tip damage on the shoot growth and quality were studied.

Bulbil formation in stress: Crucial role of triploid fitness in mixed ploidy dynamics in Costus speciosus

open access: yesPlant Species Biology, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
Upon prolonged waterlogging, a Costus speciosus plant developed bulbils at stem node. Karyotype analysis, nucleolar staining, and anatomical study revealed its triploid status and developmental aspects. Prevalence of tetraploid, abundance, and unique reproductive fecundity of the triploid, indicates its determinant role in coexistence of the multiple ...

A Conservation Assessment and Phylogenomic Evaluation of Protection Status in the Tropical Genus Heliconia L. (Zingiberales: Heliconiaceae)

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 5, Page 1438-1457, September 2025.
The primarily neotropical plant genus Heliconia has been cultivated commercially in gardens and nurseries for hundreds of years. Many of these same species are ecological keystones in their native habitats as important resources for herbivorous insects and pollinating hummingbirds, yet they face threats of habitat loss and degradation, competition with

Niche packing, but not niche expansion, explains the co‐occurrence of hummingbirds‐visited plants

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2025, Issue 6, June 2025.
Tropical mountains often harbour high species richness. Yet the mechanisms behind such high richness remain poorly understood. One prominent hypothesis for high species richness is niche partitioning, which reduces competition and promotes coexistence.
