This review is of the recently revised circumscriptions of the Pleurophyllum Hook.f. group and Shawia J.R.Forst. & G.Forst. of subtribe Celmisiinae, both centred in New Zealand. Recognition of Shawia is supported, and phylogenetic data recover seven well‐supported subclades treated as infrageneric sections.

Pangenomic framework for globe artichoke supports SNP‐based varietal fingerprinting
Abstract Globe artichoke (Cynara cardunculus var. scolymus L.) comprises a broad range of local ecotypes and varietal groups whose genetic diversity has been investigated through different molecular markers. However, recent advances in next‐generation sequencing and pangenomic approaches provide new opportunities to capture genome‐wide variation at ...

The geographical extent of occurrence of the Solanaceae‐feeding Henosepilachna vigintioctopunctata on the novel fabaceous host Centrosema molle and the ability of larvae from several beetle populations to develop on C. molle were investigated to depict the incipient phase in the speciation continuum of herbivorous ladybird beetles.

Setting acceptable seed viability thresholds for the World Vegetable Genebank collections
Abstract A genebank aims to conserve and distribute genetic diversity by keeping germplasm alive. For seed genebanks, this means that monitoring the viability of seed lots is a core activity. An initial assessment of seed lot viability—usually through a germination test—is used to decide whether or not a seed lot should be put into genebank storage ...

This study predicted the current and future distributions of four native Ziziphus species in the Jinsha River Basin, and also investigated their seed dormancy and germination characteristics. Based on a comprehensive assessment, Z. montana is the most suitable species for ecological restoration in the Jinsha River Basin, exhibiting high and stable ...

Ultrasonic‐assisted extraction was identified as the most effective method for recovering TFC and TPC from LLB, with response surface analysis used to optimize the extraction conditions. The desert grassland sample had the highest TFC content (46.15 mg/g) and the strongest antioxidant activity.

Gene turnover in the common ancestor of all C4 grasses
Understanding how plants evolve more efficient photosynthesis is important in a warming world where improving crop productivity and resilience is a global priority. By generating the first reference genomes for an early‐diverging group of grasses called the Aristidoideae, we were able to reconstruct the genetic makeup of the last common ancestor of all

Behavioural manipulation of Psylliodes chrysocephala provides promising opportunities for sustainable pest management in oilseed rape systems. This review synthesises evidence on glucosinolates and their volatile isothiocyanate derivatives as phagostimulants and attractants, alongside the repellent or antifeedant effects of non‐host plants, plant ...
