Heterogeneity of iridoid biosynthesis in catmints: Molecular background in a phylogenetic context. [PDF]
J Integr Plant BiolEvolutionary gains and losses of key biosynthetic genes likely resulting from multiple independent evolutionary events explain why certain Nepeta (catnip) species produce both the active, cat‐attracting nepetalactones and sugar‐bound iridoids, while others make only the sugar‐bound forms, and some have lost iridoid production entirely.

Was the evolution of faster stomata driven by increased gas exchange rates rather than increasing water use efficiency? [PDF]
New PhytolSummary Following changes in light flux, photosynthesis (A) typically adjusts more quickly than stomatal conductance (gs), which is dependent on changes in stomatal aperture. Faster stomatal responses are proposed to reduce water loss and enhance growth in dynamic light environments. Stomatal opening and closing parameters were determined in a range of
