A synthetic eco‐evolutionary proposal for the conservation of wild relatives of the olive tree

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Societal Impact Statement Crop wild relatives (CWR) are valuable sources of genetic diversity for plant breeding. However, the identification of wild untapped genetic resources (i.e., unexploited in crops) is not always straightforward. We propose a methodology to guide the identification and conservation of these resources that integrates both genetic

The pistil as a traffic light: Yellow‐to‐red color change likely influences pollinator visitation patterns in Saxifraga fortunei (Saxifragaceae)

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Flowers can communicate reproductive status to pollinators through visual cues. In Saxifraga fortunei, pistils often changed from yellow to red after pollination, and hoverflies and honeybees preferentially visited flowers with yellow pistils. This pattern suggests that a post‐pollination color shift confined to the pistil can reduce revisits to ...
