Diurnal and geographic variations of pollinator importance for Cucurbita maxima Duchesne

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Despite growing awareness of the importance of monitoring wild crop pollinators worldwide, there are still few reports, especially in East Asia. Considering ongoing global warming may change the distribution range and diurnal activity of pollinators, it ...

Phylogenetics of Cucumis (Cucurbitaceae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background: Melon, Cucumis melo, and cucumber, C. sativus, are among the most widely cultivated crops worldwide. Cucumis, as traditionally conceived, is geographically centered in Africa, with C. sativus and C.

Microbial drivers of root plasticity. [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytol
Summary Soils are highly heterogeneous and dynamic systems, experiencing a constant flow of plant root exudates and moisture fluctuations that affect nutrient distribution, soil physicochemical properties, and microbial metabolisms. Plant roots adjust their development within the soil matrix (growth, branching, root angle, and anatomical features) by ...

Evolution of plant ribosome-inactivating proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This contribution presents an updated analysis of the evolution of ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) in plants. All evidence suggests that an ancestor of modern seed plants developed the RIP domain at least 300 million years ago.

Pseudogenization of the rhizobium-responsive EXOPOLYSACCHARIDE RECEPTOR in Parasponia is a rare event in nodulating plants

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2022
Background Nodule symbiosis with diazotrophic Frankia or rhizobium occurs in plant species belonging to ten taxonomic lineages within the related orders Fabales, Fagales, Cucurbitales, and Rosales.

Synteny analysis in Rosids with a walnut physical map reveals slow genome evolution in long-lived woody perennials. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BackgroundMutations often accompany DNA replication. Since there may be fewer cell cycles per year in the germlines of long-lived than short-lived angiosperms, the genomes of long-lived angiosperms may be diverging more slowly than those of short-lived ...

Dryas as a Model for Studying the Root Symbioses of the Rosaceae

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
The nitrogen-fixing root nodule symbiosis is restricted to four plant orders: Fabales (legumes), Fagales, Cucurbitales and Rosales (Elaeagnaceae, Rhamnaceae, and Rosaceae). Interestingly all of the Rosaceae genera confirmed to contain nodulating species (
