Proof of anthocyanins in the carnivorous plant genus Nepenthes [PDF]
FEBS Open Bio, 2021 Yellow to red colored betalains are a chemotaxonomic feature of Caryophyllales, while in most other plant taxa, anthocyanins are responsible for these colors.

Annotated genome sequences of the carnivorous plant Roridula gorgonias and a non-carnivorous relative, Clethra arborea [PDF]
BMC Research Notes, 2020 Objective Plant carnivory is distributed across the tree of life and has evolved at least six times independently, but sequenced and annotated nuclear genomes of carnivorous plants are currently lacking.

Evaluating the adaptive evolutionary convergence of carnivorous plant taxa through functional genomics [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Carnivorous plants are striking examples of evolutionary convergence, displaying complex and often highly similar adaptations despite lack of shared ancestry. Using available carnivorous plant genomes along with non-carnivorous reference taxa, this study

The Droserasin 1 PSI: A Membrane-Interacting Antimicrobial Peptide from the Carnivorous Plant Drosera capensis [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2020 The Droserasins, aspartic proteases from the carnivorous plant Drosera capensis, contain a 100-residue plant-specific insert (PSI) that is post-translationally cleaved and independently acts as an antimicrobial peptide.

A chromosome‐scale genome of Sarracenia purpurea reveals a significant expansion of plant defense and stress response gene families following paleopolyploidization [PDF]
The Plant GenomePlant carnivory evolved through gene co‐option and whole genome duplications (WGDs) over millions of years in at least 13 independent flowering plant lineages, but its genetic mechanisms remain largely unknown.

Chromosome-level genome assembly of Utricularia aurea Lour., a canivorious higher plant with minute genome [PDF]
Scientific DataUtricularia aurea Lour. is an aquatic herbaceous plant with yellow flowers and a unique insect-trapping mechanism, distributed in several regions of China and other Asian countries. In this study, we assembled a chromosome-scale genome of U. aurea with a
