Botanical Sciences, 2022 Background: Nuclear ribonucleoprotein particles play a key role in RNA processing and in the gene expression pathway. Interchromatin granules (GICs) involved in the metabolism of pre-messenger RNA (pre-mRNA) were described in Allium cepa and ...

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 10, Page 2575-2591, October 2023., 2023 Abstract Understanding palaeodiversity dynamics through time and space is a central goal of macroevolution. Estimating palaeodiversity dynamics has been historically addressed with fossil data because it directly reflects the past variations of biodiversity.

Botanical Sciences, 2020 Background: Although pollen morphology has always been an important tool in plant systematics, the possibility of distinguishing between related taxa is still debated. A difficult case is the cycads, where their morphology and small size is very similar.

Journal of Ecology, Volume 111, Issue 4, Page 761-772, April 2023., 2023 This is the first study to comprehensively show that litter decomposability and litter bed flammability parameters are decoupled across a wide range of species. This decoupling originates from the former depending mostly on ‘size and shape spectrum’ (SSS) traits and the latter on ‘plant economics spectrum’ (PES) traits and those trait spectra being ...

A new species of Ceratozamia (Zamiaceae) from Chiapas, Mexico [PDF]
Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2001 Ceratozamia zoquorum sp. nov. from the northern mountains of Chiapas, Mexico, is described and illustrated. It has affinities with C. miqueliana Wendl. from Veracruz, but differs in leaf, male female cone and trunk morphology.

The RadOrgMiner pipeline: Automated genotyping of organellar loci from RADseq data
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 9, Page 1962-1975, September 2022., 2022 Abstract Different versions of Restriction‐site‐Associated DNA sequencing (RADseq) have become powerful and popular tools in molecular ecology. Although RADseq datasets are generally regarded as representative of the nuclear genome, reduced representation genomic libraries may also sample the organellar (i.e.

1039 ZAMIA DECUMBENS: Cycadales, Zamiaceae
Curtis's Botanical Magazine, Volume 39, Issue 3, Page 517-539, September 2022., 2022 Summary Zamia decumbens Calonje, Meerman, M.P.Griff. & Hoese, a threatened cycad species from Belize, is showcased and illustrated based on field observations as well as plants cultivated in the ex situ conservation living collections of Montgomery Botanical Center (MBC) in Coral Gables, Florida. This once obscure species was described in 2009, studied

Lords of the biosphere: Plant winners and losers in the Anthropocene
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 350-366, July 2022., 2022 The impact of humans on Earth's biodiversity varies across the Tree of Life. The extirpation and extinction of species is often determined by compatibility with human activities. Here we classify, where data are available, a significant portion (~30%) of vascular plant species as winners or losers with respect to this compatibility and show that ...

The Plant Genome, Volume 14, Issue 3, November 2021., 2021 Abstract Gymnosperms are among the most endangered groups of plant species; they include ginkgo, pines (Conifers I), cupressophytes (Conifers II), cycads, and gnetophytes. The relationships among the five extant gymnosperm groups remain equivocal. We analyzed 167 available gymnosperm plastomes and investigated their diversity and phylogeny.
