<i>Luthrodes pandava</i> Larvae Can Distinguish <i>Cycas</i> Leaf Quality in Cafeteria Experiments. [PDF]

Insects
Cycads are being endangered by several anthropogenic threats, and invasions of non-native herbivores are among those threats. Various country invasions by the cycad blue butterfly Luthrodes pandava have threatened the local horticulture cycad trade and ...

Genome-Wide Evidence for Complex Hybridization and Demographic History in a Group of Cycas From China

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021
Cycads represent one of the most ancestral living seed plants as well as one of the most threatened plant groups in the world. South China is a major center and potential origin of Cycas, the most rapidly diversified lineage of cycads.

Geographic factors and climatic fluctuation drive the genetic structure and demographic history of Cycas taiwaniana (Cycadaceae), an endemic endangered species to Hainan Island in China. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2022
Hainan Island had experienced several cold–warm and dry–humid fluctuations since the Late Pleistocene period, resulting in separating and connecting from the mainland several times with the cyclic rise and fall of sea level.

Divergence With Gene Flow and Contrasting Population Size Blur the Species Boundary in Cycas Sect. Asiorientales, as Inferred From Morphology and RAD-Seq Data

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The divergence process of incipient species is fascinating but elusive by incomplete lineage sorting or gene flow. Species delimitation is also challenging among those morphologically similar allopatric species, especially when lacking comprehensive data.

Transcriptome and metabolome analysis of Cycas bifida response to low-temperature stress. [PDF]

BMC Plant Biol
Background Cycas bifida is an endemic species distributed in limited areas of Yunnan and Guangxi, with a notably small population size. Under the context of global climate warming, this species may require introduction to colder habitats.

Differences in lipid homeostasis and membrane lipid unsaturation confer differential tolerance to low temperatures in two Cycas species

BMC Plant Biology, 2021
Background C. panzhihuaensis is more tolerant to freezing than C. bifida but the mechanisms underlying the different freezing tolerance are unclear. Photosynthesis is one of the most temperature-sensitive processes.

Transcriptome analysis of two radiated Cycas species and the subsequent species delimitation of the Cycas taiwaniana complex [PDF]

Applications in Plant Sciences, 2019
Premise Cycas is an important gymnosperm genus, and the most diverse of all cycad genera. The C. taiwaniana complex of species are morphologically similar and difficult to distinguish due to a lack of genomic resources.
