Intergeneric Comparison of Staminal Trichomes in the Tribe Ipomoeeae (Convolvulaceae) [PDF]

Plants
Hairs or trichomes distributed on the base of filaments in the morning glory family, known as staminal trichomes, differ from those found on other plant parts and have been recognized for their taxonomic value for over a century.

A Deep Metagenomic Snapshot as a Proof‐of‐Concept for Resource Generation: Simultaneous Assembly of Host, Food, and Microbiome Genomes From Stingless Bee Larval Food [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
This study serves as a proof‐of‐concept, demonstrating that deep shotgun sequencing of a single complex sample—stingless bee larval food—can simultaneously generate multiple genomic resources. From this dataset, we assembled three genomes (a near‐complete bacterium, a draft host mitochondrion, and a fragmented plant chloroplast) with varying ...

Chloroplast Genome Characterization of Benthamiella Patagonica (Benthamielleae, Solanaceae) [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
This study presents the first complete chloroplast genome (155,570 bp) of Benthamiella patagonica, representing the early‐diverging tribe Benthamielleae within Solanaceae. Comparative genomic analyses revealed high structural similarity with other Solanaceae species, while phylogenetic reconstruction confirmed B.

Five thousand years of tropical lake sediment DNA records from Benin [PDF]

, 2017
Until now, sedimentary DNA (sedDNA) studies have only focused on cold and temperate regions were DNA is relatively well preserved. Consequently, the tropics, where vegetation is hyperdiverse and natural archives are rare, have been neglected and deserve ...
