Pest categorisation of <i>Selenaspidus articulatus</i>. [PDF]

EFSA J
Abstract Following the commodity risk assessment of Jasminum polyanthum unrooted cuttings from Uganda, in which Selenaspidus articulatus (Hemiptera: Diaspididae) was identified as a pest of possible concern, the European Commission requested the EFSA Panel on Plant Health to conduct a pest categorisation of S.

Genetic diversity of symbiotic cyanobacteria in Cycas revoluta (Cycadaceae) [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2012
The diversity of cyanobacterial species within the coralloid roots of an individual and populations of Cycas revoluta was investigated based on 16S rRNA gene sequences. Sixty-six coralloid roots were collected from nine natural populations of cycads on Kyushu and the Ryukyu Islands, covering the entire distribution range of the species.

The complete chloroplast genome of Cycas Szechuanensis, an extremely endangered species

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2018
In this study, we determined the complete chloroplast genome of Cycas szechuanensis (Cycadaceae, Cycas) using the Illumina sequencing data. The genome is 162,083 bp in length, including a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 25,003 bp each, which are ...

Is Cycas revoluta (Cycadaceae) wind‐ or insect‐pollinated? [PDF]

American Journal of Botany, 2007
Among the Cycadales (Cycadaceae and Zamiaceae), the Zamiaceae are known to be insect‐pollinated. In contrast, the Cycadaceae are still considered wind‐pollinated, although some doubt has been cast on several species, including Cycas revoluta. Using a large population of C. revoluta on Yonaguni Island (Okinawa, Japan), we performed exclusion experiments,

Taxonomy in the Kunming Institute of Botany (KIB): Progress during the past decade (2008–2018) and perspectives on future development

Plant Diversity, 2018
The development of new taxonomical theories and approaches, particularly molecular phylogenetics, has led to the expansion of traditional morphology-based taxonomy into the concept of “integrative taxonomy.” Taxonomic knowledge has assumed greater ...

Looking backward to move forward: Enhancing metadata in scientific collections through interdisciplinary collaboration

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Early modern herbaria house important and useful data on historic environments. However, their contents are often inhospitable to scientific use. Despite this challenge, once their contents have been deciphered, such specimens present novel research opportunities.

Building a genomic and herbarium biorepository for medicinal plants of the Western Ghats

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Medicinal plants support healthcare for millions of people and sustain livelihoods, yet many threatened species lack secure long‐term genetic protection. This study establishes a genomic and herbarium biorepository for medicinal plants of the Western Ghats, a global biodiversity hotspot facing intense human pressure.
