Several hypotheses have been proposed to explain host plant driven insect diversification in a phylogenetic context and have mostly been explored using Lepidoptera.

Rapid detection of RNase‐based self‐incompatibility in Lysimachia monelli (Primulaceae)
Abstract Premise Primroses famously employ a system that simultaneously expresses distyly and filters out self‐pollen. Other species in the Primulaceae family, including Lysimachia monelli (blue pimpernel), also express self‐incompatibility (SI), but involving a system with distinct features and an unknown molecular genetic basis.

Continental‐scale interactions of Australian showy mistletoes and their hosts
Abstract Premise Showy mistletoes are obligate hemiparasites of woody plants. Host specificity is therefore a fundamental determinant of mistletoe diversity, persistence, geographic distribution, and abundance. Investigations of host specificity in Australian Loranthaceae have focused mostly on host range (taxon counts), but additional insights into ...

Abstract Urban tree canopy cover is often unequally distributed across cities such that more socially vulnerable neighborhoods often have lower tree canopy cover than less socially vulnerable neighborhoods. However, how the diversity and composition of the urban canopy affect the nature of social‐ecological benefits (and burdens), including the urban ...

Abstract Salvia divinorum is a hallucinogenic plant native to the Oaxaca in Mexico. The active ingredient for psychotropic effects in this plant is salvinorin A, a potent and highly selective κ‐opioid receptor agonist. Salvinorin A is distinct from other well‐known opioids, such as morphine and codeine, in that it is a non‐nitrogenous diterpenoid with ...
