, 2003 Cuphea is a potential source of lauric and capric acids, which are medium-chain-length fatty acids. They are used to manufacture various products such as detergents (lauric) and high quality lubricants (capric). The fatty acids are contained in oils that are produced and stored in cuphea seeds.

Understanding the dynamic nature of plant lipid anabolic and catabolic metabolism is key to sustainable oilseed engineering. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary Plant‐derived oils are essential sources of reduced carbon and various fatty acid (FA) structures for food, biofuels, and the oleochemical industry. Despite extensive efforts, engineering mainstream oilseed crops to produce high levels of industrially valuable unusual FAs (UFAs) remains challenging.

Neighbourhood flower diversity increases reproductive success of Lantana hypoleuca Briq (Verbenaceae). [PDF]
Plant Biol (Stuttg)A neighbourhood plant richness increases reproductive success. Abstract The attraction of floral visitors depends on intrinsic plant traits and the surrounding floral abundance and diversity. Therefore, it is important to consider the conspecific and heterospecific co‐flowering context to understand plant–pollinator interactions and, consequently ...

Development of vegetative oil sorghum: From lab-to-field. [PDF]
Plant Biotechnol JSummary Biomass crops engineered to accumulate energy‐dense triacylglycerols (TAG or ‘vegetable oils’) in their vegetative tissues have emerged as potential feedstocks to meet the growing demand for renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). Unlike oil palm and oilseed crops, the current commercial sources of TAG, vegetative tissues, such as

More than flowers: Habitat type, floral resources, and landscape context shape pollinator communities in villages. [PDF]
Ecol ApplAbstract Wild pollinator diversity has been widely studied in agricultural habitats and increasingly also in cities, but the value of small settlements like villages in rural areas for pollinators is mainly unknown. Public green spaces and village gardens could serve as refuges from agricultural intensification and habitat loss.

A mosaic of colors: The influence of biotic and abiotic factors shaping flower color diversity across a tropical mountain ecosystem. [PDF]
Am J BotAbstract Premise Flower color diversity within communities is shaped by biotic and abiotic factors. Pollinators often prefer specific colors, and floral pigments also help protect against abiotic factors such as ultraviolet (UV) radiation, precipitation, and temperature.
