Changes in Foliar Water Uptake Caused by Water Stress in Cattleya Lindl. (Orchidaceae)
ABSTRACT In response to water restrictions imposed by the epiphytic environment, orchids have developed strategies to increase water‐use efficiency, such as the expression of Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM) and the foliar water uptake (FWU). In a climate change scenario, FWU may emerge as a strategy to reduce water stress during drought.

Abstract The South African citrus thrips, Scirtothrips aurantii Faure, 1929, has been recorded in Italy for the first time. This species was recently reported in Spain and Portugal. Its presence has been confirmed in the major citrus‐growing area of Catania province (Sicily), infesting citrus trees. S. aurantii is currently included in the EPPO A1 List

ABSTRACT Various factors can trigger water stress in plants, particularly in those growing in dry tropical regions. To survive under such conditions, plants produce metabolites with adaptive functions. However, metabolomic data on the leaves of Malpighiaceae species cultivated in both dry and humid tropical areas of Brazil remain scarce.

Abstract Termite mounds (TMs) are characteristic micro‐ecosystems of tropical dry woodland landscapes. Although their effects on woody plant functional diversity and ecosystem functioning have been relatively well studied, herbaceous communities have received much less attention.

Exploring Floristic Diversity and Medicinal Plant Uses in Venda, Limpopo, South Africa
ABSTRACT Plants have been an important source of medicine for thousands of years. To better understand the current diversity and usage of medicinal plants, floristic studies are essential. This report documents an expedition conducted in the Venda region of Limpopo, South Africa. The study was carried out in Shanzha and surrounding villages, as well as
