Effect of fire on viability and germination behaviour of Cistus ladanifer and Cistus salvifolius seeds [PDF]

, 2022
Fire is a natural phenomenon that is very frequent in ecosystems of the Mediterranean basin. Cistus ladanifer and C. salvifolius (Cistaceae family) are evergreen shrubs and components of plant communities found in this region. The objective of this study

Phylogeography and host‐shift speciation in the vampirecups, an enigmatic clade of endophytic holoparasitic plants

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 50, Issue 11, Page 1852-1865, November 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim Diversification of obligate parasites is often closely associated with historical shifts among host species. This phenomenon is well‐documented in animal parasites but still poorly understood for parasitic plants. We studied the associations between host shifts, biogeography and diversification in Cytinus, a genus of endophytic ...

Contribution of edible flowers to the Mediterranean diet: Phytonutrients, bioactivity evaluation and applications

Food Frontiers, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page 592-630, December 2022., 2022
This review aimed to investigate the knowledge about the use and consumption of edible flowers as part of the Mediterranean cuisine, based on ethnobotanical and ethnopharmacological studies especially from the last 10 years, and highlight their uses as a nutritious and functional food.

Biogeographic history of a large clade of ectomycorrhizal fungi, the Russulaceae, in the Neotropics and adjacent regions

New Phytologist, Volume 236, Issue 2, Page 698-713, October 2022., 2022
Summary The biogeography of neotropical fungi remains poorly understood. Here, we reconstruct the origins and diversification of neotropical lineages in one of the largest clades of ectomycorrhizal fungi in the globally widespread family Russulaceae.

Gypsum endemics accumulate excess nutrients in leaves as a potential constitutive strategy to grow in grazed extreme soils

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 174, Issue 4, July/August 2022., 2022
Abstract Extreme soils often have mineral nutrient imbalances compared to plant nutritional requirements and co‐occur in open areas where grazers thrive. Thus, plants must respond to both constraints, which can affect nutrient concentrations in all plant organs.

Profile of Medicinal Plants Traditionally Used for the Treatment of Skin Burns

Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Moroccan folk healers use medicinal plants to treat several diseases including skin burns. The traditional knowledge of wound healing is not common among the general population. Only one ethnobotanical survey was carried out in Rabat, Morocco, to track the traditional use of medicinal plants in wound healing.

Endoparasitic plants and fungi show evolutionary convergence across phylogenetic divisions

New Phytologist, Volume 232, Issue 3, Page 1159-1167, November 2021., 2021
Summary Endoparasitic plants are the most reduced flowering plants, spending most of their lives as a network of filaments within the tissues of their hosts. Despite their extraordinary life form, we know little about their biology. Research into a few species has revealed unexpected insights, such as the total loss of plastome, the reduction of the ...

Maximize Resolution or Minimize Error? Using Genotyping-By-Sequencing to Investigate the Recent Diversification of Helianthemum (Cistaceae) [PDF]

, 2019
A robust phylogenetic framework, in terms of extensive geographical and taxonomic sampling, well-resolved species relationships and high certainty of tree topologies and branch length estimations, is critical in the study of macroevolutionary patterns ...
