Mountain colonization precedes shifts away from bee pollination in Melastomataceae
New Phytologist, Volume 247, Issue 3, Page 1474-1492, August 2025.Summary Shifts among different groups of pollinators are central in the evolution of flowering plants, yet mechanisms underlying pollinator shifts remain unclear.

Pest categorisation of Coccus viridis
EFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 7, July 2025.Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of Coccus viridis (Hemiptera: Coccidae), the green coffee scale, for the territory of the European Union (EU), following the commodity risk assessment of Jasminum polyanthum from Uganda, in which C. viridis was identified as a pest of possible concern to the EU.
