Reversibility of sex changes in the plant kingdom: more important than we thought?

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Compared to animals, plants show a wide range of reproductive strategies with different degrees of sex separation (e.g. dioecy, monoecy, hermaphroditism). While sex expression was previously thought to be genetically determined and fixed in plants, accumulating evidence suggests that sex expression can change reversibly even within one ...

Taxonomic and phylogenetic biases in translocated angiosperm plant species across European countries

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Conservation translocations are a well‐known conservation tool used to reverse the effects of local population extinctions and restore ecosystems. Compared with mammals and birds, plants are underrepresented in translocation programs, and little is known about the potential taxonomic and phylogenetic biases of plant translocation efforts.

Beyond Deception: What Else Do Flower Wasps (Hymenoptera: Thynnidae: Thynninae) Do in Flowers Worldwide?

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wasps, although less recognised as good pollinators, also feed on nectar and pollinate flowers. Specialised pollination systems, such as orchids that mimic the pheromones of female wasps to attract males, are complex and specific. This interaction occurs with some Thyninnae wasps that also visit flowers to obtain nectar and perform other ...

Development and evolution of extreme synorganization in angiosperm flowers and diversity: a comparison of Apocynaceae and Orchidaceae.

Annals of Botany, 2016
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Apocynaceae and Orchidaceae are two angiosperm families with extreme flower synorganization. They are unrelated, the former in eudicots, the latter in monocots, but they converge in the formation of pollinia and pollinaria, which do ...

Spatial distribution patterns and formation of global spermatophytes

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Summary: The global Spermatophyte Spatial Evolutionary System defines 18 distribution types and six supertypes across three floristic elements, primarily formed between the Eocene and Miocene and shaped by climate, long‐distance dispersal, and tectonic movement, revealing that similar distribution patterns of spermatophytes were driven by comparable ...

The road less taken: Dihydroflavonol 4‐reductase inactivation and delphinidin anthocyanin loss underpins a natural intraspecific flower colour variation

Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Visual cues are of critical importance for the attraction of animal pollinators, however, little is known about the molecular mechanisms underpinning intraspecific floral colour variation. Here, we combined comparative spectral analysis, targeted metabolite profiling, multi‐tissue transcriptomics, differential gene expression, sequence ...

Orchidaceae endémicas del Perú

Revista Peruana de Biología, 2006
La familia Orchidaceae constituye para la flora peruana la familia más diversa, con alrededor de 212 géneros y 2020 especies (Brako & Zarucchi, 1993; Ulloa Ulloa et al., 2004), aunque se estima que el número real podría oscilar entre 2500 y 3500 especies (Collantes, com. pers.).
