Brazil seed transfer zones: Supporting seed sourcing for climate‐resilient ecosystem restoration

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Brazil has tens of millions of hectares of degraded land that must be restored to meet national and global biodiversity and climate goals. Sowing genetically diverse native seeds is key to restoring degraded lands to climate‐resilient landscapes, but we still lack guidance on how to effectively match seed sources to restoration sites across broad ...

Ethnobotanical and genetic assessments of Central American avocado landraces reveal novel sources of biodiversity and ancient migration patterns

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Avocados are a multibillion‐dollar global commodity, but their growing export market pressures local farmers to abandon local fruit tree diversity in favor of commercial cultivar production. Interviews with rural avocado farmers and households from the Southern Mexican Highlands, Pacific Coastal Honduras, and Western Nicaragua, as well as the genetic ...

Peri‐urban agroforestry for climate mitigation in West Africa: Structural diversity and functional traits as key drivers of carbon storage

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Peri‐urban areas in West Africa are expanding rapidly, often with limited planning and growing exposure to climate risks. Our study shows that agroforestry systems in these landscapes, especially diverse home gardens, can store substantial amounts of carbon when they include structurally complex stands and species with traits that favor biomass ...

Chemical diversity and phylogenetic insights into Hawaiian ʻākia (Wikstroemia) species used in traditional fishing practices

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Traditional fishing with plant‐based piscicides is a global practice in decline, facing increasing restrictions. We investigated the chemical diversity of endemic Wikstroemia species historically used to stun or poison fish in Hawaiʻi. Using 1‐H‐NMR, principal component analysis, targeted HPLC, and target‐capture sequencing, we characterized compounds ...

Conservation gap analysis for wild grapevines (Vitis L.) of the Americas

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Wild grapevines (Vitis L.) native to the Americas are ecologically and culturally important plants that are also critical to the global cultivated grape industry as sources of traits for crop innovation, but many of these species are poorly documented and insufficiently conserved.
