Evolution in arid environments: the role of betalains, succulence, and medullary bundles

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Overview of the study system. Summary The flowering plant clade Caryophyllales includes many succulent species that grow in drought conditions. Many Caryophyllales species also have betalain pigmentation and medullary bundles, both of which have been linked to stress tolerance, albeit with less precise functional characterisation.

Almost 200 years of anthocyanin research: What we know, what we assume and what remains unknown

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Nearly 200 years of anthocyanin research reveal a well‐understood anthocyanin biosynthetic pathway. However, there are still open questions regarding its evolution, functions and ecological significance. Abstract Flavonoids are frequently presented as health‐beneficial plant metabolites, and their subclass anthocyanins is best known for striking flower

Anthocyanins and betalains in evolution: Why mutual exclusion remains the best‐supported model

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 6, Page 1763-1766, October 2026.
Anthocyanins and betalains are plant pigments produced through different biosynthetic pathways and are generally considered mutually exclusive. We examine claims of their co‐occurrence, arguing that methodological flaws and data misinterpretation have led to unsupported reports, and offer recommendations for more rigorous future research.

Incomplete climate‐driven peripatric speciation in Moehringia sect. Moehringia (Caryophyllaceae) in the European Alps

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Premise The origin of endemic species in the European Alps is commonly attributed to the climatic oscillations of the Quaternary. Moehringia sect. Moehringia, with 12 of 15 species endemic to the Alps and mostly restricted to well‐known glacial refugia, is a prime system for investigating the diversification of a lineage originating in the ...

Hydraulic function of medullary bundles in a tropical root climber

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Premise Medullary bundles, which are vascular bundles in the pith, have evolved multiple times. However, their functional significance remains poorly understood. Here, we investigated how medullary bundles are involved in the vascular architecture and hydraulic function in a tropical root climber, Adelobotrys scandens (Melastomataceae) to ...

Novel Phylogenomic Methods for Uncovering the Evolutionary History of the Hyperdiverse Clade Caryophyllales [PDF]

Gene tree conflict has historically been attributed to methodological error, but can also arise from an array of biological processes (e.g. hybridization, incomplete lineage sorting, etc…).
