Progestogens and androgens influence root morphology of angiosperms in a brassinosteroid‐independent manner

The Plant Journal, Volume 123, Issue 5, September 2025.
Significance Statement Plants produce progesterone and androgens, which alter root morphology in A. thaliana and 60% of tested angiosperms. Brassinosteroids seem uninvolved. Understanding the mechanism is like navigating an unknown city—exemplarily Dittelbrunn (a small village in Bavaria)—where the expected shortcut (interaction with brassinosteroids ...

A Short‐Read Amplicon Sequencing Protocol and Bioinformatic Pipeline for Ecological Surveillance of Dipteran Disease Vectors

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 6, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Vector control remains an important strategy worldwide to prevent human infection with pathogens transmitted by arthropods. Vector control strategies rely on accurate identification of vector taxa along with vector‐specific biological indicators such as feeding ecology, infection prevalence and insecticide resistance.

Cryphonectria Canker on Eucalyptus in Florida Reconsidered

Forest Pathology, Volume 55, Issue 4, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Cryphonectria canker is one of the most important diseases of plantation‐grown Eucalyptus spp. in the tropics and Southern Hemisphere. The disease has been known in Florida, USA, for many years, and the causal agents are attributed to two known canker pathogens, Chrysoporthe cubensis (≡ Cryphonectria cubensis) and Microthia havanensis ...

Pollen morphology, deep learning, phylogenetics, and the evolution of environmental adaptations in Podocarpus

New Phytologist, Volume 247, Issue 3, Page 1460-1473, August 2025.
Summary Podocarpus pollen morphology is shaped by both phylogenetic history and the environment. We analyzed the relationship between pollen traits quantified using deep learning and environmental factors within a comparative phylogenetic framework.

Older Lineages of Vascular Plants in Wetlands Dominate in Habitats That Are More Ubiquitous Across the Region: A Case Study in Southern Africa

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
Wetlands are dominated by different lineages of vascular plants in different habitats. ABSTRACT Vascular plants that presently grow and often dominate wetland habitats are mostly derived from ancestors adapted to dry terrestrial environments. We hypothesize that recently evolved wetland lineages dominate more challenging or novel wetland environments ...
