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.

Genuine and Sequestered Natural Products from the Genus Orobanche (Orobanchaceae, Lamiales) [PDF]
The present review gives an overview about natural products from the holoparasitic genus Orobanche (Orobanchaceae). We cover both genuine natural products as well as compounds sequestered by Orobanche taxa from their host plants. However, the distinction between these two categories is not always easy.

The complete chloroplast genome of Fraxinus hupehensis and phylogenic analysis of Lamiales [PDF]
Fraxinus hupehensis is a national rare and Endangered tree in the Oleaceae family, that has high commercial value owing to its slow growth, interlaced roots, intricate tree shape, and easy to shape. Here, we determined the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence for F. hupehensis using genome skimming sequencing.

Molecular Phylogenomics Reveals the Deep Evolutionary History of Carnivory across Land Plants
Plastid molecular phylogenies that broadly sampled angiosperm lineages imply that carnivorous plants evolved at least 11 times independently in 13 families and 6 orders.

Extrapolating demography with climate, proximity and phylogeny: approach with caution [PDF]
Plant population responses are key to understanding the effects of threats such as climate change and invasions. However, we lack demographic data for most species, and the data we have are often geographically aggregated.

Biting or irritating insects are a threat to the health and welfare of grazing animals. This systematic review reveals that several shrubs and bushes growing in the alpine area have insecticidal, insect‐repellent and/or attractant properties. The alder Alnus glutinosa, juniper Juniperus communis, spruce Picea abies and walnut Juglans regia are ...

Phylogenetic information complexity: Is testing a tree easier than finding it? [PDF]
Phylogenetic trees describe the evolutionary history of a group of present-day species from a common ancestor. These trees are typically reconstructed from aligned DNA sequence data.

Summary Digitized herbarium specimens and iNaturalist observations provide invaluable plant biodiversity data. Combining these two data sources could create a more holistic representation of local biodiversity; however, understanding biases inherent to each is critical to determine how to best combine and utilize these data.
