High-quality reference genome sequences of two Cannaceae species provide insights into the evolution of Cannaceae [PDF]
Canna edulis Ker-Gawl and Canna indica L. are species belonging to the Cannaceae family and both have a very high economic value. Here, we aimed to assemble genomes of C. edulis and C. indica at the chromosome level to generate a reference genome for the

The complete chloroplast genome sequence of the Canna edulis Ker Gawl. (Cannaceae) [PDF]
Canna edulis Ker Gawl. is an essential traditional tuber crop used for fresh consumption and to isolate starch in some tropical and semitropical regions. The complete chloroplast genome sequence of C. edulis has been determined in this study.

Correlation between Inflorescence Architecture and Floral Asymmetry—Evidence from Aberrant Flowers in Canna L. (Cannaceae) [PDF]
Floral symmetry studies often focus on the development of monosymmetric and polysymmetric flowers, whereas asymmetric flowers and their position and function within the inflorescence structure are largely neglected.

Pollination and breeding system of Canna paniculata(Cannaceae) in a montane Atlantic Rainforest: asymmetric dependence on a hermit hummingbird [PDF]
We studied the pollination biology of Canna paniculata (Cannaceae), a plant species common in the Atlantic Rainforest of southeastern Brazil. The species presents specialized ornithophilous flowers, which in our study area are solely pollinated by the ...

Complete Chloroplast Genome Sequences of Three Canna Species: Genome Characterization, Comparative Analyses, and Phylogenetic Relationships Within Zingiberales [PDF]
Canna, the sole member of the Cannaceae family, is widely cultivated as an ornamental plant for its decorative flowers and foliage and is also a potential tuber crop due to its high starch content.

Expression and Function Studies of CYC/TB1-Like Genes in the Asymmetric Flower Canna (Cannaceae, Zingiberales) [PDF]
The asymmetric flower, lacking any plane of symmetry, is rare among angiosperms. Canna indica L. has conspicuously asymmetric flowers resulting from the presence of a half-fertile stamen, while the other androecial members develop as petaloid staminodes ...

PHYLOGENETIC RELATIONSHIP AMONG DIFFERENT VARIETIES AND SPECIES OF CANNA USING MOLECULAR MARKERS [PDF]
Canna, the solitary genus of family Cannaceae, represents a group of ornamental plants species. In this investigation an attempt was made to access the genetic relationship among six species and varieties of Canna using RAPD and ISSR techniques.

A revision of the parasitoid wasp genus Alphomelon Mason with the description of 30 new species (Hymenoptera, Braconidae) [PDF]
The parasitoid wasp genus Alphomelon Mason, 1981 is revised, based on a combination of basic morphology (dichotomous key and brief diagnostic descriptions), DNA barcoding, biology (host data and wasp cocoons), and distribution data. A total of 49 species
