Overcoming DNA extraction problems from carnivorous plants
Anales del Jardín Botánico de Madrid, 2009 We tested previously published protocols for DNA isolation from plants with high contents of polyphenols and polysaccharides for several taxa of carnivorous plants.

Catapulting tentacles in a sticky carnivorous plant.
PLoS ONE, 2012 Among trapping mechanisms in carnivorous plants, those termed 'active' have especially fascinated scientists since Charles Darwin's early works because trap movements are involved.

The complete plastid genome of carnivorous pitcher plant Cephalotus follicularis
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019 Cephalotus follicularis is a carnivorous plant native to southwest Australia that belongs to the monospecific family Cephalotaceae. It forms both carnivorous pitcher leaves and non-carnivorous flat leaves, the pitcher leave makes it able to attract ...

The digestive systems of carnivorous plants
Plant Physiology, 2022 Abstract To survive in the nutrient-poor habitats, carnivorous plants capture small organisms comprising complex substances not suitable for immediate reuse. The traps of carnivorous plants, which are analogous to the digestive systems of animals, are equipped with mechanisms for the breakdown and absorption of nutrients.

Phylogeny and biogeography of the carnivorous plant family Sarraceniaceae. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The carnivorous plant family Sarraceniaceae comprises three genera of wetland-inhabiting pitcher plants: Darlingtonia in the northwestern United States, Sarracenia in eastern North America, and Heliamphora in northern South America. Hypotheses concerning

Rampant chloroplast capture in Sarracenia revealed by plastome phylogeny
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Introgression can produce novel genetic variation in organisms that hybridize. Sympatric species pairs in the carnivorous plant genus Sarracenia L. frequently hybridize, and all known hybrids are fertile. Despite being a desirable system for studying the

AI–Guided 4D Printing of Carnivorous Plants–Inspired Microneedles for Accelerated Wound Healing
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This work presents an artificial intelligence (AI)‐guided 4D‐printed microneedle platform inspired by carnivorous plants for wound healing. A thermo‐responsive shape memory polymer enables body temperature–triggered self‐coiling for autonomous wound closure.
