Immunocytochemical Analysis of the Wall Ingrowths in the Digestive Gland Transfer Cells in Aldrovanda vesiculosa L. (Droseraceae)

open access: yesCells, 2022
Carnivorous plants are unique due to their ability to attract small animals or protozoa, retain them in specialized traps, digest them, and absorb nutrients from the dissolved prey material; however, to this end, these plants need a special secretion ...

Mutualists or parasites? Context-dependent influence of symbiotic fly larvae on carnivorous investment in the Albany pitcher plant [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2016
Carnivorous plants allocate more resources to carnivorous structures under nutrient-limited conditions, and relative investment can also be influenced by animals (infauna) that live in association with these plants and feed on their prey. We investigated

Characteristics of the complete chloroplast genome sequences of Stylidium debile and Stylidium petiolare (Stylidiaceae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021
We report complete chloroplast genome (plastome) sequences of Stylidium debile (150,105 bp) and Stylidium petiolare (150,998 bp). Both plastomes had the typical quadripartite structure, with large single-copy (LSC) and small single-copy (SSC) regions ...
