Revisiting the phylogenetic relationships within Sladenia (Sladeniaceae)

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 11, November 2026.
Geological and climatic changes associated with the Ailao Shan–Red River shear zone (ARSZ) are thought to have influenced the evolutionary history of many mostly drought‐adapted low‐elevation plant lineages in southwestern China, yet their role in shaping genetic divergence in montane cloud‐forest plants remains poorly understood.

Elymus arasbarani sp. nov. (Poaceae; Triticeae), genus Elymus sect. Elytrigia from Arasbaran, northwest Iran

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 11, November 2026.
During a biosystematics study of the Iranian species of the genus Elymus in 2022–2024 a new species for the genus Elymus L. was found in the Arasbaran region of northwest Iran. The new species is morphologically close to Elymus repens and Elymus elongatiformis but differs in terms of inflorescence shape, shape and size of glumes, and characteristics of

Chamaecrista marinasilvae sp. nov. (Leguminosae, Caesalpinioideae): a threatened new species from the deforestation frontier of the Brazilian Cerrado

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 11, November 2026.
During a field expedition to the Jalapão region (Tocantins State, Brazil), a morphologically distinct specimen was collected and identified as a new species, Chamaecrista marinasilvae. Further herbarium investigations revealed additional collections of this taxon from the same state that had been misidentified as Chamaecrista juruenensis.

Looking backward to move forward: Enhancing metadata in scientific collections through interdisciplinary collaboration

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 2135-2149, November 2026.
Early modern herbaria house important and useful data on historic environments. However, their contents are often inhospitable to scientific use. Despite this challenge, once their contents have been deciphered, such specimens present novel research opportunities.

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

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 2205-2216, November 2026.
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 ...

Morphological Characteristics of Radical Leaves in the Serpentine Ecotype of Adenophora triphylla var. japonica (Campanulaceae) Revealed by Cultivation Experiments

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 6, November 2026.
We tested whether the distinctive radical‐leaf morphology of the serpentine ecotype of Adenophora triphylla var. japonica is due to phenotypic plasticity or genetic differentiation. The results suggest that lamina thickening is plastic for water storage, while reduced lamina size and modified petiole traits are genetically fixed adaptations to reduce ...
