Early-Season Warming Advances Autumn Senescence in Temperate Tree Saplings in Association With Early Growth Dynamics. [PDF]
Plant Cell EnvironABSTRACT The timing of autumn leaf senescence is driven by external cues such as temperature and photoperiod and is strongly regulated by internal developmental processes. Correlative evidence suggests that earlier budburst and warmer conditions in spring and summer could accelerate development and advance senescence, yet this hypothesis remains ...

Exploring the Cosmeceutical Potential of Six Malaysian Indigenous Tropical Fruit Trees: Radical Scavenging, Anti-Tyrosinase, and Photoprotective Activities Evaluation. [PDF]
Chem BiodiversB. macrophylla leaf ethyl acetate fractionated extract exhibits the highest TPC, very strong radical‐scavenging activities, and the highest SPF value of 28.64 ± 0.51. LC‐MS analysis identifies m‐trigallic acid, cis‐coutaric acid, and ellagic acid, which may contribute to its bioactivities. The present work highlights B.
