Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 14, Issue 4, July-August 2026.Abstract While the photosynthetic diversity of aquatic plants rivals that of terrestrial species, the environmental conditions underlying that diversity fundamentally differ. Despite these environmental differences, aquatic and terrestrial plants have convergently evolved carbon concentrating mechanisms (CCMs).

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 7, July 2026.Isoetes ×atruensis hyb. nov. is shown to be a triploid (2n = 3× = 33 + 1) sterile interspecific hybrid between diploid (2n = 2× = 22 + 1) I. coromandelina and tetraploid (2n = 4× = 44 + 1) I. rajasthanensis. It has been found in two locations in Rajasthan, India.

Freshwater habitats within the Natura 2000 network
Ecological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 3, April 2026.Abstract Freshwater biodiversity is experiencing dramatic declines. Despite improvements, the trend remains negative, underlining that effective and coordinated initiatives are needed. Protected areas are considered a global cornerstone of biodiversity conservation, and in Europe, the Natura 2000 network plays a central role in safeguarding ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.Habitat and morphology of Craspedosorus sinensis. ABSTRACT Yunnan Province is the richest region in China for lycophytes and ferns. Its unique geological history and climatic conditions have nurtured numerous endemic and rare plant species. Craspedosorus, a monotypic genus of Thelypteridaceae containing only Craspedosorus sinensis, is a genus endemic ...

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.Bryophyte‐targeted primers captured a longer DNA fragment, moving beyond the indirect “bycatch” approach using vascular plant primers. This improved detection and recovered greater bryophyte diversity, with substantial overlap with taxa obtained through bycatch.

The role of Alpine botanical gardens in integrating germplasm bank collections and mission
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 680-692, March 2026.This study underscores the vital role of Alpine botanical gardens (ABGs) in safeguarding Europe's alpine biodiversity amid climate change and habitat loss. By acting as living laboratories and reservoirs of plant genetic resources, ABGs bridge ex situ and in situ conservation, supporting ecosystem resilience and informing restoration strategies.

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 6, March 2026.ABSTRACT Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is a water‐efficient photosynthetic strategy involving a coordinated suite of complex traits including metabolic, anatomical and regulatory aspects that shift across the diel cycle. While CAM has evolved repeatedly in land plants, the evolutionary routes enabling this convergence remain elusive.
