Vegetation Turnovers Reduced Water Availability During the Last Icehouse

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 34, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Plants are hypothesised to have changed in function, biogeography and environmental impact throughout the Phanerozoic. The fossil record preserves large‐scale shifts in water use traits with evolution. We test how time‐appropriate plants modified their environment differently based on their water use traits and where they survived during ...

Late Quaternary Montane Forest Dynamics From Equatorial East Africa: A Biome Perspective

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Understanding environmental change over large spatial and temporal scales requires working at a broad ecological scale to enable cross‐site comparisons. This allows data‐based comparisons to dynamic vegetation model outputs, with utility for climate and land cover modelling.

A new conifer record from the late Aptian of La Paja Formation from Veléz, Santander (Colombia)

open access: yesActa Palaeobotanica
A new plant assemblage from the La Paja Formation at the Los Guayabos section of Vélez, Santander (Central Colombia) is described here. Based on ammonite biostratigraphy, the age of the flora is estimated as late Aptian.

Placing Nothophylica piloburmensis from Cretaceous amber into the angiosperm phylogeny

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 74, Issue 4, Page 933-937, August 2025.
Abstract Recently, we redescribed an amber inclusion from mid‐Cretaceous Kachin amber of Myanmar, previously assigned to the extant genus Phylica in Rhamnaceae (core eudicots), and placed it in a new fossil‐genus, Nothophylica. Based on our reconstructions, we identified new floral features and instead suggested affinities within magnoliids, especially

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

open access: yesNew 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.

The Botanical University Challenge: Bridging isolation and empowering plant‐aware students

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 4, Page 906-919, July 2025.
In some indigenous languages, plants are referred to as “those who care for us,” reflecting their essential role in tackling global challenges. Yet, urbanisation has reduced engagement with plants and botany, decreasing awareness, especially among students.

Phylogenomic Evidence of Fire Regime Changes: The Case of a Resprouting Juniper

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 7, July 2025.
We propose that fire‐adaptive traits, such as lignotuber resprouting, can serve as proxies to estimate fire regime shifts. We estimated the origin of lignotuber resprouting in the Iberian Juniperus oxycedrus complex. By doing so, we provide new insights into the assembly of the Mediterranean biome.
