An evidence map and guide for using community science, remote sensing, and environmental DNA for rare plant detection

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2025.
How can we use novel techniques such as community science, remote sensing, and environmental DNA to detect rare plants? Our evidence map provides information on the types of plants detected with each technique and the habitats in which the studies took place, as well as potential solutions to help overcome problems found with these techniques, sources ...

First Report of Stem Rot on Asiatic Dayflower (Commelina communis L.) Caused by Sclerotium rolfsii in Korea. [PDF]

Mycobiology, 2011
Stem rot was found for the first time on the Asiatic dayflower plant (Commelina communis L.) in Korea. A detailed description of this Korean specimen is given, along with its rDNA internal transcribed spacer sequence. The fungus was identified as Sclerotium rolfsii Saccardo based on mycological characteristics and molecular data.

Toward “Green” Vessels: Characterization of Microstructure, Mechanics, and Endothelial Cell Interaction on Three Macro‐Tubular Plants for Vascular Tissue Engineering Applications

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 7, April 4, 2025.
The concept of “green” vessels explores naturally derived tubular structures from three decellularized plants—Water Spinach, Green Onion, and Water Horsetail—as innovative alternatives for vessel models and vascular grafts. Microstructural and mechanical testing reveal the promising suturability and mechanical properties of Water Spinach.

Insect–flower interactions, ecosystem functions, and restoration ecology in the northern Sahel: current knowledge and perspectives

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 2, Page 969-995, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Actions for ecological restoration under the Great Green Wall (GGW) initiative in the northern Sahel have been plant focused, paying scant attention to plant–animal interactions that are essential to ecosystem functioning. Calls to accelerate implementation of the GGW make it timely to develop a more solid conceptual foundation for restoration

Variability in Nutritional Profile of Five Commelina Forage Species as a Function of Season and Agroecology in Semiarid Conditions of Ethiopia

International Journal of Zoology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Forage nutritional composition varies with season and agroecological conditions, influencing feed quality and ultimately livestock productivity. Commelina species grow alongside food crops and are widely used as forage for livestock in the Konso zone of southern Ethiopia.

Cytosolic UDP‐L‐arabinose synthesis by bifunctional UDP‐glucose 4‐epimerases in Arabidopsis

The Plant Journal, Volume 119, Issue 1, Page 508-524, July 2024.
Significance Statement UDP‐D‐glucose 4‐epimerase (UGE), which catalyzes the interconversion between UDP‐D‐glucose and UDP‐D‐galactose, is a conserved enzyme. However, its properties differ between plants and mammals. Plant UGEs possess UDP‐D‐xylose 4‐epimerase (UXE) activity in addition to UGE activity, enabling them to generate a plant‐specific sugar,

Plant density and variety effect on yield, leaf spot disease, weed species richness and diversity of groundnut production in northern Ghana

Weed Biology and Management, Volume 24, Issue 2, Page 71-87, June 2024.
Abstract Low plant density and weed infestation are major challenges for groundnut production in northern Ghana. A two‐year on‐farm study was conducted to determine the effect of plant density and variety on grain and fodder yields, incidence of leaf spot disease, weed species diversity and biomass.
