Synthesis of Renewable Diesel from Pure Plant Oil of Kapuk (Ceiba pentandra) Seed Using NiMo/γ-Al2O3 Catalysts

open access: yesJurnal Rekayasa Kimia & Lingkungan, 2022
Ceiba pentandra (Kapok) is a tropical plant belonging to the Malvales that contain palm oil. Naturally, Pure Plant Oil (PPO) can be used as a renewable energy source that is a promising energy alternative instead of fossil. Somehow, one of the effects of

Herbarium Specimens Provide Evidence for the Early Introduction of Erysiphe quercicola Into the United States and Document New Hosts

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The powdery mildew fungus Erysiphe quercicola (Erysiphaceae) has a complex taxonomic history that has long complicated assessments of its geographic distribution and host associations. Although knowledge of the global host range of this species has expanded substantially over the past two decades, sequencing‐confirmed records from North ...

Evolutionary dynamics of the chloroplast genome in Daphne (Thymelaeaceae): comparative analysis with related genera and insights into phylogenetics

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 3, Page 503-519, March 2026.
Comparative analysis of chloroplast genomes from 14 genera of Thymelaeaceae revealed variation in gene content, ranging from 128 to 142 genes, primarily influenced by IR expansion/contraction events and pseudogenization of ndhF, ndhI, and ndhG. Two large inversions were detected within the large single‐copy region, including a synapomorphic inversion ...

The role of Alpine botanical gardens in integrating germplasm bank collections and mission

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 680-692, March 2026.
This study underscores the vital role of Alpine botanical gardens (ABGs) in safeguarding Europe's alpine biodiversity amid climate change and habitat loss. By acting as living laboratories and reservoirs of plant genetic resources, ABGs bridge ex situ and in situ conservation, supporting ecosystem resilience and informing restoration strategies.

Winter diet of Korean long‐tailed goral Naemorhedus caudatus: natural foraging and post‐wildfire supplementary feeding revealed by DNA metabarcoding

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Understanding the winter diets of endangered ungulates is critical for developing effective conservation strategies in temperate ecosystems, where seasonal fluctuations significantly affect food availability. The long‐tailed goral Naemorhedus caudatus, an herbivorous ungulate listed as a category I ‘Endangered species' (EN) under the Korean Wildlife ...

Phylogenetic inference in Rafflesiales: the influence of rate heterogeneity and horizontal gene transfer

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2004
Background The phylogenetic relationships among the holoparasites of Rafflesiales have remained enigmatic for over a century. Recent molecular phylogenetic studies using the mitochondrial matR gene placed Rafflesia, Rhizanthes and Sapria (Rafflesiaceae s.

Phylogeny of the core Malvales: evidence from ndhF sequence data [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, 1999
The monophyly of the group comprising the core malvalean families, Bombacaceae, Malvaceae, Sterculiaceae, and Tiliaceae, was recently confirmed by molecular studies, but the internal structure of this clade is poorly understood. In this study, we examined sequences of the chloroplast ndhF gene (aligned length 2226 bp) from 70 exemplars representing 35 ...
