Phylogenomic analysis of Madagascar's baobabs reveals admixed populations and supports resurrection of a previously described species

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Baobab trees (Adansonia) are iconic members of Madagascar's biota that serve as emblems for the island's unique biodiversity. Despite this recognition, many questions remain regarding evolutionary relationships and species limits within the genus.

On the botanical history and nomenclature of the New World genus Piscidia (Fabaceae)

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 7, July 2026.
Piscidia L. (Fabaceae) is a New World genus with nine recognized taxa (seven species and two varieties). The previous nomenclatural revisions, made in 1910 and in 1969, are revisited here. The names Derris grandifolia Heyde & Lux ex Donn.Sm. and P. cubensis Urb. required step II lectotypifications, with an epitype for the latter name.

Dispersal and delimitation: Phylogenomics of Connaraceae prompts revised generic delimitation in Cnestideae and reveals global biogeographic patterns

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract The tempo and mode of assembly of the world's most diverse, tropical floras remain poorly known. Evolutionary relationships within pantropical plant clades such as Connaraceae (Oxalidales, ca. 220 species) offer an opportunity to address this issue.

Prospective of indigenous African wild food plants in alleviation of the severe iron deficiency anaemia in Sub‐Saharan Africa

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 486-498, March 2026.
Iron deficiency anaemia remains a major public health challenge in Sub‐Saharan Africa, where population growth, displacement and limited resources heighten nutritional insecurity. We compiled a list of indigenous African underutilized wild food plants and examined their potential for addressing micronutrient deficiencies.

Revision of Manettia (Rubiaceae) in Paraguay

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 2, February 2026.
Manettia Mutis is a Neotropical genus comprising over 100 species, many of which are only known from their original descriptions or, at most, from revisions dating back over 100 years. Recent review studies have remained unpublished for several years. Conventional taxonomic methods are followed.

Pollination and plant reproduction in the Cerrado, the world's most biodiverse savanna

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 74-105, February 2026.
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 ...

Fruit Impact Damage: A Review of Contact Theory in Mathematical Modeling for Postharvest Applications

Journal of Food Processing and Preservation, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Mechanical impact damage to fruits during harvesting, transportation, and postharvest handling remains a major cause of food waste and quality decline. This type of damage depends on the force′s properties and the physical and mechanical features of the fruit. Under idealized conditions, theoretical relationships such as the Hertzian contact theory can

Revisiting the taxonomy and nomenclature of Phyla, a small genus of Verbenaceae

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2025, Issue 12, December 2025.
Phyla is unique within Verbenaceae due to the presence of malpighiaceous hairs. Its taxonomy has long been marked by difficulties in defining species boundaries. The most recent revision of the genus recognized five species and three varieties. In this study, however, we recognize only two species and no varieties: P.
