Transcriptomic prey‐capture responses in convergently evolved carnivorous pitcher plants

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 5, Page 2559-2573, March 2026.
Summary The Australian pitcher plant Cephalotus and the Asian pitcher plant Nepenthes exhibit striking morphological and functional similarities, serving as compelling examples of convergent evolution. Although trapping pitchers in both lineages represent some of the most elaborate leaf structures in angiosperms, it remains unknown whether their ...

Aphid responses to non-host epicuticular lipids

open access: yes, 1999
Initiation of stylet penetration by aphids depends on the sensory assessment of a number of plant surface features including colour, texture and phytochemicals (volatile and non-volatile).

Farmer selection of drought‐tolerant enset landraces reduces trait diversity in drier environments

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 6, Page 1714-1728, November 2025.
Drought stress poses a growing threat to food security worldwide. In this study, we investigated the putative drought tolerance traits of enset, a multipurpose staple crop endemic to Ethiopia that sustains over 20 million people. Our findings reveal that enset's domestication has reduced landrace diversity and trait variability, particularly in drier ...

A thinner jacket for frosty and windy climates? Global patterns in leaf cuticle thickness and its environmental associations

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 1, Page 107-124, October 2025.
Summary Plant cuticles protect the interior tissues from ambient hazards, including desiccation, UV light, physical wear, herbivores and pathogens. Consequently, cuticle properties are shaped by evolutionary selection. We compiled a global dataset of leaf cuticle thickness (CT) and accompanying leaf traits for 1212 species, mostly angiosperms, from 293

Wheat Leaves: The Surface Disposition of Their Epicuticular Wax [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This research work describes the micro-nano-patterning of the epicuticular wax of wheat leaf surface (adaxial side), by analyzing their RIMAPS spectra. It is known that the epicuticular wax of the wheat leaf has a platelet shape.

X‐ray micro‐CT imaging to study foliar water uptake mechanisms in plants with contrasting leaf topography

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 2, Page 656-671, October 2025.
Summary Formation of an aqueous continuum from the leaf surface to the sub‐stomatal cavity is a key process, affecting the foliar entry of solutes, particles, and pathogens. However, the factors controlling the transition from a water droplet to the formation of a continuous water film remain poorly understood.
