TAXON, 2022 AbstractWe undertook a molecular phylogenetic revision of hayscented ferns (Dennstaedtiaceae: Dennstaedtioideae) using four plastid markers. Our sampling represents ca. 40% of the extant diversity and includes the type species for each of the relevant segregate genera.

Antibacterial Activity of Peruvian Tarasa Species: A Comparative Study of the Antimicrobial Effects of Extracts From Three Different Tarasa Species, T. capitata, T. operculata and T. tenuis, Against Human Pathogens. [PDF]
Int J MicrobiolThe growing problem of antibiotic resistance has driven the search for new sources of antimicrobial agents. Plants, particularly those from the Malvaceae family, have showed promising potential in this field. The present study is based on Tarasa extracts, and the antimicrobial action was assessed using Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli as ...

A comprehensive illustrated protocol for clearing, mounting, and imaging leaf venation networks. [PDF]
Appl Plant SciAbstract Premise Leaf venation network architecture can provide insights into plant evolution, ecology, and physiology. Venation networks are typically assessed through histological methods, but existing protocols provide limited guidance on processing large or challenging leaves.

Biogeochemical niche conservatism relates to plant species diversification and life form evolution in a subtropical montane evergreen broad-leaved forest. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2022 Our results show that biogeochemical niche conservatism relates to plant species diversification and life form evolution in subtropical forest plants. Furthermore, the strengths of biogeochemical niche conservatism varying among elements and between life forms might be mostly determined by the tempo and mode of OU processes.

Non‐seed plants are emerging gene sources for agriculture and insect control proteins
The Plant Journal, Volume 116, Issue 1, Page 23-37, October 2023., 2023 SUMMARY The non‐seed plants (e.g., charophyte algae, bryophytes, and ferns) have multiple human uses, but their contributions to agriculture and research have lagged behind seed plants. While sharing broadly conserved biology with seed plants and the major crops, non‐seed plants sometimes possess alternative molecular and physiological adaptations ...

Pest categorisation of Lasiodiplodia pseudotheobromae
EFSA Journal, Volume 21, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Abstract The EFSA Plant Health Panel performed a pest categorisation of Lasiodiplodia pseudotheobromae, a clearly defined fungus of the family Botryosphaeriaceae, which was first described in 2008 as a cryptic species within the L. theobromae complex.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 11, November 2022., 2022 Information regarding diet changes over time after disturbance is lacking for many animals living in habitats prone to disturbances such as fires. DNA metabarcoding is a versatile molecular method that allows simultaneous characterization of many biotas using taxonomically informative barcode regions.

Geological Journal, Volume 57, Issue 10, Page 4216-4241, October 2022., 2022 The sedimentary pattern and interpretation of the Hoanh Bo Trough evolution match well with the rift initiation, rift development, and rift termination tectonic system tracts of the South China Sea and could be treated as a landward keyhole for the offshore basins of the northern Song Hong Basin.

American Journal of Botany, Volume 109, Issue 8, Page 1313-1325, August 2022., 2022 Abstract Premise Antheridiogen systems are a set of pheromonal mechanisms that control sex expression in fern gametophytes. However, antheridiogen has rarely been studied outside of the laboratory, and little is known about its function in natural settings.

Pest categorisation of Pulvinaria psidii
EFSA Journal, Volume 20, Issue 8, August 2022., 2022 Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of Pulvinaria psidii (Hemiptera: Coccidae), the green shield scale, for the EU. P. psidii was originally described from Hawaii on Psidium sp. and it is now established in many countries in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Within the EU, the pest has been reported from
