Primula sikkimensis persisted in distinct glacial refugia within the Hengduan Mountains and eastern Himalayas during the Last Glacial Maximum. Subsequent postglacial range expansions onto the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau were accompanied by secondary contact and interspecific hybridization, collectively enhancing genetic diversity and adaptive capacity. These

Etude par les isozymes de la pollinisation libre de génotypes d'hévéas sauvages (Hevea brasiliensis Muell. Arg.) en verger à graines [PDF]
Survey of the open pollination by isozymes in a wild rubber trees (Hevea brasiliensis Muell. Arg.) seeds orchard. The Côte dʼIvoire has a wild rubber tree population for which an improvement in a seeds orchard is suggested by open pollination.

Freshwater snails occupy a unique position at the intersection of biodiversity, climate, and health. I argue that their ecological plasticity, reproductive diversity, and role as parasite hosts make them powerful yet overlooked model systems for integrating eco‐evolutionary dynamics with One Health challenges.

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The rate at which flowers dispense pollen across successive pollinator visits is a key functional trait influencing male reproductive success. Pollen presentation theory (PPT) predicts that when pollinators are abundant and actively groom their bodies to collect pollen,

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Coevolutionary arms races between plants and insects, in which gains of novel plant defences select for counteradaptations in herbivores, are key drivers of biodiversity.

The endemic pine, Pinus canariensis, forms one of the main forest ecosystems in the Canary Islands. In this archipelago, pine forest is a mosaic of natural stands (remnants of past forest overexploitation) and artificial stands planted from the 1940's ...

Pollination and plant reproduction in the Cerrado, the world's most biodiverse savanna
ABSTRACT The Brazilian Cerrado is a continental‐wide biodiversity hotspot and the most species‐rich savanna ecosystem in the world. The main aspect characterising this biodiversity is that the landscape is arranged as an intricate mosaic of different plant formations, including grasslands, savannas, and forests, each harbouring distinct but ...

Survival, rarity, and extinction in tropical stony corals
Abstract Many reef‐building tropical corals are becoming rare. We considered the meaning of rarity in corals and highlighted taxa that have reached low abundances in the last few decades. The difficulties of quantifying rarity in the marine environment arise from the sheer scale and 3‐dimensional nature of the biome and the inherent challenges therein ...

ABSTRACT Climate change is the greatest challenge to modern agriculture. It significantly impacts agricultural systems through an increased frequency and intensity of extreme environmental events. Maize, a vital crop for global food security, is particularly vulnerable to these changes, highlighting the urgent need to develop resilient varieties.

Ecological risks of novel environmental crop technologies using phytoremediation as an example: [PDF]
"Phytoremediation is the use of living plants, known as hyperaccumulators which absorb unusually large amounts of metals in comparison to other plants.
