Leveraging target enrichment and genome skimming (Hyb-Seq) of herbarium collections to unlock timber DNA barcoding. [PDF]

Appl Plant Sci
Abstract Premise DNA barcoding for timber species identification requires comprehensive reference datasets, informative DNA barcodes, and cost‐effective protocols. We developed a workflow leveraging Hyb‐Seq (target capture sequencing and genome skimming) to address these challenges, and we tested it on four genera from the mahogany family (Meliaceae ...

Land-Use Effects on Melliferous Woody Flora in Sudanian Agroforestry Parkland and Protected Area of West Africa. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This study assessed how land use types influence the diversity, structure, and temporal dynamics of melliferous woody species and honeybee (Apis mellifera) foraging in a sudanian landscape of southwestern Burkina Faso. Fallow land and protected area supported higher species richness and distinct community composition compared with farmland, while ...
