Rubisco evolution in C4 eudicots: an analysis of Amaranthaceae sensu lato [PDF]
, 2015 BACKGROUND Rubisco (ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase) catalyses the key reaction in the photosynthetic assimilation of CO₂. In C₄ plants CO₂ is supplied to Rubisco by an auxiliary CO₂-concentrating pathway that helps to maximize the ...

Extreme environments in a world of new extremes
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract Extreme environments, whether defined by climate, soils, or disturbance, at landscape or micro‐scales, are prevalent across Earth's surface and have long served as crucibles for ecological and evolutionary insights. Many foundational theories were developed in deserts, cliffs, ultramafic soils, and other harsh systems.

First Betalain-Producing Bacteria Break the Exclusive Presence of the Pigments in the Plant Kingdom
mBio, 2019 The biosynthesis of antioxidant pigments, namely, betalains, was believed to be restricted to Caryophyllales plants. This paper changes this paradigm, and enzyme mining from bacterial hosts promoted the discovery of bacterial cultures producing betalains.

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract Stable isotope analysis (SIA) is widely used to reconstruct food webs, characterize trophic relationships, and estimate dietary composition. However, bulk tissue SIA (BSIA) can yield imprecise estimates when dietary sources are isotopically similar.

Age of innovation: Progress in systematic botany in the 20th century
TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract Systematic botany can be regarded as the oldest of the botanical sciences, having originated with the ancient Greeks. Although much progress has been achieved in systematic botany over nearly two millennia, in the 20th century, many significant innovations took place in revealing processes of evolution, principles and methods of classification,
