Arctic‐Boreal Bryophyte Dynamics Since the Last Glacial Inferred From Ancient DNA Metabarcoding
ABSTRACT Aim This study investigates the main changes in bryophyte diversity and composition during the last 30,000 years in arctic and boreal ecosystems. Turnover in biological and ecological trait compositions of recorded bryophytes is assessed to explore changes in dominant life‐strategies and habitats.

Spatial distribution patterns and formation of global spermatophytes
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 ...

Chemotaxonomy of the Papaveraceae Alkaloids [PDF]
The classification of plant taxa has mostly been carried out on the basis of morphological characteristics, and in practice such characteristics are of great importance for the determination of individual species. In recent years, chemotaxonomy has become significant in systematic botanical studies and both botanists and chemists have found many ...

Temporally disjunct herbaceous species differ in leaf embolism resistance
Summary In the temperate Northern Hemisphere, herbaceous community composition undergoes major seasonal phenological shifts. Despite significant variation in water availability across growing seasons, few studies have associated physiological traits with seasonal shifts in community composition.

Beyond conservation: the landscape of chloroplast genome rearrangements in angiosperms
Summary Chloroplast genomes (plastomes) have long been considered structurally conserved, but recent sequencing efforts have uncovered pervasive rearrangements that challenge this assumption. This review catalogues the main types of plastome modifications: large and small inversions; insertions and deletions (indels); gene and intron losses; horizontal

A new natural hybrid in Argemone (Papaveraceae)
Argemone × hybrida is described as a natural hybrid of A. mexicana and A. ochroleuca, based on a collection from La Palma (Canary Islands, Spain), where both parents are found growing in close proximity. This hybrid may be more widespread but overlooked. Distinguishing features of all three taxa are thoroughly discussed and illustrated.

A new polymeric nanoparticle formulation containing aminophenoxazinone DiS‐NH2 (2,2′‐disulfanediyldianiline) is proposed as a post‐emergence and contact bioherbicide for weed management in durum wheat. Abstract BACKGROUND Weed‐resistance phenomena have increased dramatically in recent years. Bioherbicides can offer a sustainable alternative to chemical

Abstract As climate change intensifies, sustainable vineyard management practices are critical to conserving agricultural water and finding herbicide alternatives. This study investigated the effectiveness of organic and inorganic mulch materials for weed control in vineyards under irrigated (50% water) and conditions.

The developmental basis of floral nectary diversity and evolution
Summary Nectar is a central bridge between angiosperms and animal mutualists. It is produced by specialized structures termed nectaries, which can be found on different plant organs. Consumption of floral nectar by pollinators and the subsequent transfer of pollen contribute to the reproductive success of both angiosperms and their pollinators.

First report of Aylax hypecoi (Hym.: Cynipidae: Aylacini) from Iran with some notes on its biology and parasitoids [PDF]
The herb gall wasp, Aylax hypecoi Trotter, is recorded as new for the Iranian cinipid fauna. The specimens were collected from induced galls on fruit-like pods of Hypecoum pendulum L. (Papaveraceae) in Urmia region. The A. hypecoi-H. pendulum association
