Physiological roles of lignins – tuning cell wall hygroscopy and biomechanics

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Lignins constitute the second most abundant carbon‐storing biopolymers in the biosphere. These phenolic polymers accumulate in different concentrations, compositions, and localisations within and between cell wall layers and cell types. Lignins were acquired during plant terrestrialisation 450 million years ago, and the diversification of their

Gelechiidae Moths Are Capable of Chemically Dissolving the Pollen of Their Host Plants [PDF]

, 2011
Background: Many insects feed on pollen surface lipids and contents accessible through the germination pores. Pollen walls, however, are not broken down because they consist of sporopollenin and are highly resistant to physical and enzymatic damage. Here

Bract size affects resource availability and fruit set in a hummingbird‐pollinated plant with distyly polymorphism

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
In Psychotria poeppigiana, larger bracts honestly signal greater nectar availability but have higher mortality, while smaller bracts produce more fruit, revealing a surprising trade‐off and hints of sexual role specialization in this distylous species. Abstract Plants can use non‐floral signals to advertise the presence of resources to pollinators. The

Soil seed banks in three restored wildlife corridors; implications for linear habitats in tropical environments

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Restoring habitat corridors between fragments and continuous forests can potentially counter the effects of isolation, especially in tropical forests where species sensitivity to fragmentation is high. The ability of restored linear habitats to absorb natural disturbance in inimical surroundings potentially reflects resilience, an important aim of ...

A new phylogeny of Anastrepha (Diptera: Tephritidae) based on nuclear loci obtained by phylogenomic methods

Systematic Entomology, EarlyView.
We present an extensive phylogenetic analysis, based on 293 nuclear loci and 728 individuals representing 237 species of Anastrepha, the largest and most economically important New World genus of Tephritidae. The analysis strongly supports the monophyly of most Anastrepha species groups, also revealing previously unknown relationships among species and

Comprehensive Evaluation of Methanolic Fruits Extract of Jatropha gossypifolia L.: Neuropharmacological, Cytotoxic, Anthelmintic, GC–MS Profiling, and Molecular Docking Studies

Pharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 13, Issue 6, December 2025.
The anxiolytic properties of the methanolic fruit extract of Jatropha gossypifolia (JGF‐ME) were investigated using the Elevated Plus Maze (EPM), Hole Board Test (HBT), and Light–Dark Box Test (LDT), while its antidepressant potential was examined through the Forced Swimming Test (FST) and Tail Suspension Test (TST).
