Wheat straw mulching and compost application effects on lima bean productivity, seed quality, and weed density under arid irrigated conditions

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 4, December 2026.
Abstract In the irrigated arid regions of Iraq, soil degradation and severe evaporative demand constrain legume productivity. Although ecological intensification using organic amendments is widely promoted, the specific mechanisms governing crop–weed–soil interactions remain poorly understood.

A national crop wild relative checklist for Zimbabwe reveals edible crop wild relative diversity of regional and global importance

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 2205-2216, November 2026.
Crop wild relatives (CWR) in Zimbabwe are reservoirs of beneficial agronomic traits, yet they remain under‐documented and poorly conserved. This study developed Zimbabwe's first national CWR checklist based on a conceptual framework combining floristic, ecological and ethnobotanical data, revealing over 2700 taxa, with nearly 1000 edible species ...

Evolutionary relationship between organellar DNA inheritance patterns and traits of seed plants

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Premise In plants, organellar DNA is predominantly maternally inherited, but biparental and paternal inheritance have also been observed. Specific mechanisms, such as plastid exclusion during pollen mitosis or genome degradation, ensure maternal inheritance.

PaleoceneIpomoea(Convolvulaceae) from India with implications for an East Gondwana origin of Convolvulaceae

, 2018
SignificanceThe origin of the worldwide-distributed morning glory family (Convolvulaceae) has been a matter of debate. The fossil record from late Eocene sediments of North America argues for a Laurasian origin that is in contrast to a molecular ...

Phylogenetic relationships in Solanaceae and related species based on cpDNA sequence from plastid trn EtrnT region

Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2008
Intergenic spacers of chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) are very useful in phylogenetic and population genetic studies of plant species, to study their potential integration in phylogenetic analysis. The non-coding trnE-trnT intergenic spacer of cpDNA was analyzed
