Exploring Floristic Diversity and Medicinal Plant Uses in Venda, Limpopo, South Africa
Feddes Repertorium, Volume 137, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT Plants have been an important source of medicine for thousands of years. To better understand the current diversity and usage of medicinal plants, floristic studies are essential. This report documents an expedition conducted in the Venda region of Limpopo, South Africa. The study was carried out in Shanzha and surrounding villages, as well as

Nucellar beak structure and pollen tube growth in Cucurbitaceae [PDF]
, 2014 The nucellar beak is a proboscis-like outgrowth of the nucellus at the micropylar end, being the obliged path for the pollen tube entering the ovule. Among the few angiosperm families with nucellar beak, Cucurbitaceae is remarkable because the pollen ...

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.ABSTRACT Intensive agriculture and urbanization have led to habitat degradation and fragmentation, reducing plant diversity and subsequently reducing pollinator abundance and richness. This paper investigates the conservation potential of green infrastructure in allotment gardens, which are a common form of urban land use.

Journal of the Royal Society of New Zealand, Volume 56, Issue 3, June 2026.Over the last decade there have been significant advances in genome sequencing and model species development for ferns, lycophytes, and the bryophyte lineages—mosses, liverworts, and hornworts. This has facilitated research on the biosynthesis and function of flavonoids in these non‐seed land‐plant lineages.

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract A framework beyond single‐reference genomes is needed to understand transcription factor evolution. This study employed an integrated haplotype‑resolved genomes–transcriptome atlas–machine learning to characterize the transcription factors of autotetraploid green jujube (Ziziphus mauritiana).
