The most threatened plants receive the least scientific attention

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Plants sustain all life, providing the energetic and structural basis of ecosystems, but they face a growing risk of extinction. Reversing this decline requires an understanding of how scientific knowledge is distributed among species, and identification of the biases and gaps that hinder effective responses to the threats they face. However, we reveal

Governance and infrastructure as pillars of performance: A socio‐ecological analysis of Ethiopian botanical gardens

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
While botanical gardens are often perceived merely as recreational spaces for a weekend walk, in the Global South, they are true lifelines for nature and for the people who depend on it. Our research in Ethiopia explored what actually keeps these gardens running long‐term.

Thinking with trees: Responding to sympoietic plant relations through visual art

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Amid escalating climate crises, this paper explores how we might rethink our relationship with the natural world, particularly with plants and trees, through the perspectives of visual art. This paper reveals how art invites us to see trees and other plant life not as passive background scenery, but as living beings with their own forms of experience ...

Chemical diversity and phylogenetic insights into Hawaiian ʻākia (Wikstroemia) species used in traditional fishing practices

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Traditional fishing with plant‐based piscicides is a global practice in decline, facing increasing restrictions. We investigated the chemical diversity of endemic Wikstroemia species historically used to stun or poison fish in Hawaiʻi. Using 1‐H‐NMR, principal component analysis, targeted HPLC, and target‐capture sequencing, we characterized compounds ...

Conservation gap analysis for wild grapevines (Vitis L.) of the Americas

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Wild grapevines (Vitis L.) native to the Americas are ecologically and culturally important plants that are also critical to the global cultivated grape industry as sources of traits for crop innovation, but many of these species are poorly documented and insufficiently conserved.
