Eubacterium sp. mediates the anti-obesity effect of lotus leaf extract via brown adipose tissue activation and white fat browning [PDF]
Nelumbinis folium [Nelumbonaceae; Nelumbo nucifera Gaertn.] is a traditional Chinese medicine. Although studies have reported the efficacy of lotus leaf in weight management, the underlying molecular pathways necessitate further studies. This study aimed

Food and Medicine Homologous Plants in Osteoporosis: A Scoping Review of Preclinical Evidence [PDF]
Food and medicine homologous (FMH) plants and their bioactive compounds exhibit potential osteoprotective effects through multiple complementary mechanisms, including estrogen‐like signaling, attenuation of oxidative stress, modulation of the gut microbiota–bone axis, and regulation of autophagy.

Effectiveness of interval photography cameras for a survey of pollinator communities: Comparison with direct observation [PDF]
Abstract Premise Pollinator communities have been surveyed through direct observation, which is labor intensive and difficult for monitoring nocturnal pollinators. Interval photography surveys are increasingly used, although the resulting data from pollinator community surveys have rarely been validated. Methods We surveyed a pollinator community using

Aperture variation in the pollen ofNelumbo(Nelumbonaceae) [PDF]
The evolutionary and developmental origin of tricolpate pollen is of great interest because pollen of this kind defines a major clade of angiosperms (eudicots), a clade that is also well supported by molecular data. We examined evidence that tricolpate and monosulcate pollen types are produced alongside each other in the anthers of Nelumbo flowers, as ...

Floral thermogenesis is an interesting and important field in evolutionary biology and plant ecology. This is the first study to compare thermogenic and non‐thermogenic plants and explain floral thermogenesis by evolutionary ecology through ecological niche modeling and phylogeographic analysis of chloroplast and genome‐wide single nucleotide ...
