Evolution in arid environments: the role of betalains, succulence, and medullary bundles. [PDF]

New Phytol
Overview of the study system. Summary The flowering plant clade Caryophyllales includes many succulent species that grow in drought conditions. Many Caryophyllales species also have betalain pigmentation and medullary bundles, both of which have been linked to stress tolerance, albeit with less precise functional characterisation.

Venus flytraps' metabolome analysis discloses the metabolic fate of prey animal foodstock. [PDF]

Plant J
SUMMARY Carnivorous plants such as the Venus flytrap Dionaea muscipula survive in nutrient‐poor habitats by attracting and consuming animals. Upon deflection of the touch‐sensitive trigger hairs, the trap closes instantly. Panicking prey repeatedly collides with trigger hairs, which activate the endocrine system: mechano‐ and chemosensors translate the

Plastid Genome Evolution Across the Roridulaceae-Sarraceniaceae Clade (Ericales) in Relation to Carnivorous Strategies. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
The Roridulaceae–Sarraceniaceae clade exhibits strikingly divergent carnivorous strategies, providing a framework to examine how trophic shifts influence plastid genome evolution. Comparative plastome analyses reveal recurrent ndh gene disruption across species, while Roridula gorgonias shows pronounced genomic restructuring, including elevated ...

How the diversity in digestion in carnivorous plants may have evolved. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Carnivorous plants secrete digestive enzymes for prey degradation. Although carnivorous plants have a polyphyletic origin and evolved several times independently, they surprisingly co‐opted similar digestive enzymes during convergent evolution.
