Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.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 ...

The role of Alpine botanical gardens in integrating germplasm bank collections and mission
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 680-692, March 2026.This study underscores the vital role of Alpine botanical gardens (ABGs) in safeguarding Europe's alpine biodiversity amid climate change and habitat loss. By acting as living laboratories and reservoirs of plant genetic resources, ABGs bridge ex situ and in situ conservation, supporting ecosystem resilience and informing restoration strategies.
