Resolution effects in reconstructing ancestral genomes

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2018
Background The reconstruction of ancestral genomes must deal with the problem of resolution, necessarily involving a trade-off between trying to identify genomic details and being overwhelmed by noise at higher resolutions.

Discovery of a Plant Pictet–Spenglerase With R‐Stereoselectivity

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Strictosidine synthases (STRs) are plant Pictet–Spenglerases catalyzing the coupling of a secoiridoid with tryptamine. All previously characterized strictosidine synthases are strictly S‐selective. Here, we report the discovery of Epi‐STR, an R‐selective STR ortholog from the medicinal plant Pogonopus speciosus.

INDEPENDENT ORIGINATION OF FLORAL ZYGOMORPHY, A PREDICTED ADAPTIVE RESPONSE TO POLLINATORS: DEVELOPMENTAL AND GENETIC MECHANISMS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Observations of floral development indicate that floral organ initiation in pentapetalous flowers more commonly results in a medially positioned abaxial petal (MAB) than in a medially positioned adaxial petal (MAD), where the medial plane is defined by ...

Leveraging machine learning and citizen science data to describe flowering phenology across South Africa

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Recent shifts in flowering times are an index of, and a response to, human driven climate change. However, most information on these flowering changes is heavily skewed to the northern hemisphere. This imbalance limits our understanding of how climate change is affecting ecosystems, including the mismatches of flowering times between species, increased
