Two new endemic species of Portulaca (Portulacaceae) from the Brazilian Pampa grasslands

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Portulaca L. is a monophyletic, cosmopolitan genus of succulent plants comprising ca 153 species, with particularly high diversity in xerophytic ecosystems in tropical and subtropical regions. Based on morphological evidence, we describe and illustrate two new species from the Brazilian Pampa, Portulaca guaritensis and Portulaca guenoa.

A national crop wild relative checklist for Zimbabwe reveals edible crop wild relative diversity of regional and global importance

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Crop wild relatives (CWR) in Zimbabwe are reservoirs of beneficial agronomic traits, yet they remain under‐documented and poorly conserved. This study developed Zimbabwe's first national CWR checklist based on a conceptual framework combining floristic, ecological and ethnobotanical data, revealing over 2700 taxa, with nearly 1000 edible species ...

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

PLANTS, 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 ...

Building a genomic and herbarium biorepository for medicinal plants of the Western Ghats

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Medicinal plants support healthcare for millions of people and sustain livelihoods, yet many threatened species lack secure long‐term genetic protection. This study establishes a genomic and herbarium biorepository for medicinal plants of the Western Ghats, a global biodiversity hotspot facing intense human pressure.

Accidental plant poisonings in France: Lessons from a decade of national toxicovigilance

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Accidental plant poisonings reveal how modern societies are losing everyday botanical knowledge once central to food and health safety. By analyzing a decade of French toxicovigilance data, this study shows that most severe cases arise from plant misidentification or misguided self‐medication.
