Systematic analysis of DEMETER-like DNA glycosylase genes shows lineage-specific Smi-miR7972 involved in SmDML1 regulation in Salvia miltiorrhiza

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
DEMETER-like DNA glycosylases (DMLs) initiate the base excision repair-dependent DNA demethylation to regulate a wide range of biological processes in plants.

Evaluating the African arid corridor hypothesis: A meta‐analysis including the phylogenetic and biogeographical history of Sesamothamnus

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Premise We examined the African arid corridor (AAC) disjunction pattern of vascular plants between northeastern and southwestern Africa in the context of geological and climatic events since the late Miocene. We developed a phylogenetic and biogeographical framework for the arid‐adapted genus Sesamothamnus (Pedaliaceae), a classic example of ...

The genome sequence of the Lesser Skullcap, Scutellaria minor Huds., 1762 (Lamiaceae) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesWellcome Open Research
We present a genome assembly from an individual Scutellaria minor (Tracheophyta; Magnoliopsida; Lamiales; Lamiaceae). The genome sequence is 341.8 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 14 chromosomal pseudomolecules.

Year‐round pollinator visitation of ornamental plants in Mediterranean urban parks

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 702-715, May 2026.
Pollinators visiting ornamental plants in urban parks remained diverse throughout the year. They were represented by wild bees (42%), honeybees (37%), flies (18%), butterflies (2%) and beetles (1%). Both native and non‐native plants attracted pollinators.

Dose‐Dependent Effect of Plant Volatiles on the Oviposition Preference of the Corn Leafhopper Dalbulus maidis

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 4, Page 497-505, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Maize (Zea mays L.) is a major annual crop cultivated worldwide. In the Americas, the corn leafhopper Dalbulus maidis (DeLong) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) is a key pest of this crop, causing direct damage to plants through phloem feeding and indirect damage by transmitting phytopathogens.

Plastid Genome Evolution Across the Roridulaceae–Sarraceniaceae Clade (Ericales) in Relation to Carnivorous Strategies

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
The Roridulaceae–Sarraceniaceae clade exhibits strikingly divergent carnivorous strategies, providing a framework to examine how trophic shifts influence plastid genome evolution. Comparative plastome analyses reveal recurrent ndh gene disruption across species, while Roridula gorgonias shows pronounced genomic restructuring, including elevated ...

Phylogenomics of the olive tree (Olea europaea) reveals the relative contribution of ancient allo- and autopolyploidization events

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2018
Background Polyploidization is one of the major evolutionary processes that shape eukaryotic genomes, being particularly common in plants. Polyploids can arise through direct genome doubling within a species (autopolyploidization) or through the merging ...
