Infestations of Aulacaspis yasumatsui Reduce Asexual Propagation and Transplantation Success of Cycas revoluta Plants

open access: yesHorticulturae, 2023
Cycad transplantation and asexual propagation by stem cuttings are highly successful horticultural procedures because the manoxylic stems contain copious nonstructural carbohydrates.

Integrative phylogenomics and morphology reveal the evolution and biogeography of Encephalartos (Zamiaceae)

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
We aimed to conduct phylogenetic analyses of Encephalartos, a cycad genus endemic to Africa, using 3545 single‐copy nuclear genes extracted from transcriptome data, covering 64/65 of the recognized species, along with inference of divergence times using two secondary calibration points.

Catalysts for change: Museum gardens in a planetary emergency

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 401-410, March 2026.
Natural history museums are often seen as places with indoor galleries full of dry‐dusty specimens, usually of animals. But if they have gardens associated with them, museums can use living plants to create narratives that link outside spaces to inside galleries, bringing to life the challenges facing biodiversity.

Rethinking cycad metabolite research

open access: yesCommunicative & Integrative Biology, 2011
Cycads are among the most ancient of extant Spermatophytes, and are known for their numerous pharmacologically active compounds. One compound in particular, β-methylamino-L-alanine (BMAA), has been implicated as the cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis/Parkinson dementia complex (ALS/PDC) on Guam.

Genome‐Wide Association Study Reveals the Genetic Architecture and Key Drought and Yield Related Genes in Common Vetch (Vicia sativa L.)

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1082-1097, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Common vetch (Vicia sativa L.) is one of the most economically important annual pasture legumes worldwide. Many factors affect the yield of common vetch; however, the genetic architecture and gene functions associated with common vetch yield have not been explored. On the basis of 115.53 million single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and 18.55

Electrochemical Hofmann Rearrangement to Hydrazides

open access: yesChemElectroChem, Volume 13, Issue 4, 17 February 2026.
We report the first electrochemical Hofmann rearrangement to prepare hydrazides from simple N,N‐disubstituted ureas. Enabled by LiCl as both halogen source and supporting electrolyte, the protocol is scalable and broadly tolerant. The products serve as useful precursors to active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).

Synergistic Effect of Deoxyanthocyanins from Symbiotic Fern Azolla spp. on hrmA Gene Induction in the Cyanobacterium Nostoc punctiforme

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2002
The hrmA gene of the N2-fixing cyanobacterium Nostoc punctiforme functions in repressing the formation of transitory motile filaments, termed hormogonia, by plant-associated vegetative filaments.

A review of non‐native scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccomorpha: Coccoidea) of Australia and the challenges in maintaining current and accurate pest lists

open access: yesAustral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Over 870 species of scale insects, also called coccoids (infraorder Coccomorpha), have been recorded from Australia. Here, we systematically review literature, databases and collections to provide a revised assessment of non‐native species to Australia, for which we confirm those species that are introduced and extant in Australia (including ...

Phylogenetic reconciliation provides new insights into the evolutionary diversification of the glutamine synthetase gene family in seed plants

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 3, Page 859-877, February 2026.
Phylogenetic analyses of glutamine synthetase (GS) in seed plants revealed that all three major evolutionary lineages (GS2, GS1a, and GS1b) must have been present in the common ancestor, with GS2 being the first lineage to diverge. Unlike GS1b, GS1a and GS2 are usually single‐copy genes, even though they underwent duplications that resulted in ...
