Herbivory‐Induced Stomatal Opening Triggers the Dispersal of an Invasive Insect Herbivore
The invasive leafminer Phthorimaea absoluta uniquely manipulates plant defenses by inducing stomatal opening in tomato. This response, mediated by the stomatal regulator IQM1, enhances the release of the repellent volatile benzaldehyde. This volatile triggers the dispersal of adult moths, facilitates colonization of new hosts, and leads to rapid ...

Peanut yield and quality not improved by methods to constrain indeterminacy
Abstract Maximizing vegetative growth and biomass accumulation may not optimize source–sink resource allocation for reproductive processes in peanut (Arachis hypogea L.), resulting in low yield, nutrient inefficiencies, and reduced kernel quality. The objective was to investigate the effects of mechanical pruning and herbicidal application on Runner ...

In this article, we provide the first extensive neuroanatomical characterization of the inner ear of southern bluefin tuna, using scanning electron microscopy. Morphological results include six distinct hair cell orientation groups in the saccule, partial otolith coverage in the lagena and the utricle, and presence of a high density of hair cells with ...

Impacts of soybean breeding on shoot architecture
Abstract Despite decades of steady soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) yield increases from improved cultivars, the accompanying changes in shoot architectural traits have been under‐researched. To address this, we analyzed 55 cultivars spanning eight decades of breeding and estimated a genetic gain for yield of 20.7 kg ha−1 year−1 in south‐central ...

Saussurea × media (Asteraceae), a new natural hybrid between S. parviflora and S. controversa
Saussurea × media Yusupovsky and E.Pjak (Asteraceae), a new nothospecies from the Altai‐Sayan Mountains, is described and illustrated. In this study, we sequenced the internal transcribed spacer of nuclear ribosomal DNA and the chloroplast intergenic spacers rsp16‐trnQ and ycf4‐cemA to verify the hypothesis of hybridization between Saussurea parviflora

Bupleurum oslaense, a new species of Apiaceae from Uttarakhand, Western Himalaya, India
Bupleurum oslaense sp. nov., a new member of the family Apiaceae, is described and illustrated based on the collections from Uttarakhand, India. The species shows close affinity to the Chinese element Bupleurum petiolulatum, but can be readily distinguished by its stout habit, higher number of rays, markedly larger bracts, and greater number of flowers

Hymenaea martiana, known as ‘jatobá', is used in folk medicine and has similarities with Hymenaea courbaril, making its recognition difficult. Although there are different pharmacological reports that attest to its bioactive potential, there are few studies with leaf extracts in H. martiana.

During a field expedition to the Jalapão region (Tocantins State, Brazil), a morphologically distinct specimen was collected and identified as a new species, Chamaecrista marinasilvae. Further herbarium investigations revealed additional collections of this taxon from the same state that had been misidentified as Chamaecrista juruenensis.
