Extrafloral nectar mediates interactions among plants, ants and herbivores; its contingency on damage amount and within‐plant uniformity is poorly understood. Here, we explore these factors in wild cotton (Gossypium hirsutum). Herbivory amount drove increases in extrafloral nectar induction per nectary, whereas within‐plant variability in damage ...

Habitat transformation in Amazon due to agriculture expansion impairs Melolonthidae diversity. Assemblage response towards habitat transformation are group‐dependent. Although highly disturbed, Amazon arc of deforestation region dwells sensitive insect assemblages. Abstract Although the Amazon provides crucial goods and ecosystem services for humanity,

The Important Taxonomic Characteristics of the Family Malvaceae and the Herbarium Specimens in ISTE
Herbariums, which are places where dried plant specimens are regularly stored, have indispensable working material, especially for taxonomists. The Herbarium of the Faculty of Pharmacy of Istanbul University (ISTE) is one of Turkey’s most important ...

Development of EST derived-SSRs of Theobroma grandiflorum for molecular breeding : S04P05 [PDF]
Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) markers are widely used in breeding programs, and SSRs associated to expressed sequence tags (ESTs) could be quite efficient in the selection of genotypes of interest.

Summary Evidence for the ongoing biodiversity crisis rests on assessment of a small fraction of described species, with major knowledge gaps for most organisms, including plants. Here, we highlight how digitised herbarium specimens can be used to accelerate and improve estimates of recent and ongoing plant extinctions.

Turgor loss point explains climate‐driven growth reductions in trees in Central Europe
Leaf turgor loss point of native tree species shows a high predictive power over the observed growth anomalies in Central Europe during the extensive drought period between 2018 and 2020. Abstract As climate change thrives, and the frequency of intense droughts is affecting many forested regions, a mechanistic understanding of the factors conferring ...

Cytochemical localization of H2O2 in pigment glands of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.)
Programmed cell death (PCD) plays a critical role in the development of plant pigment glands, while H2O2, which is a kind of reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by the aerobic metabolism of cells, acts as an important signal in this process.
