Beyond forests: Harnessing conservation gardening for open biomes in Brazil

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Urban gardening offers an innovative conservation strategy by integrating native ornamental species into urban landscapes. We evaluated the ornamental potential of the Brazilian flora by comparing the representation of species from forests versus open biomes (focusing on campo rupestre grasslands) and introduced and validated the Index of Ornamental ...

Peri‐urban agroforestry for climate mitigation in West Africa: Structural diversity and functional traits as key drivers of carbon storage

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Peri‐urban areas in West Africa are expanding rapidly, often with limited planning and growing exposure to climate risks. Our study shows that agroforestry systems in these landscapes, especially diverse home gardens, can store substantial amounts of carbon when they include structurally complex stands and species with traits that favor biomass ...

Plants back: Re‐envisioning botanical garden collections management for indigenous crops

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Botanical gardens and other ex situ collections play a key role in preventing plant extinctions, yet the needs of Indigenous crop cultivars are not being met by conventional botanical collections management practices. Inspired by Indigenous land care restoration movements centering plant–human–society relationships, we propose a path toward reciprocal ...

Multiple barriers maintain species boundaries in sympatric brood‐site deceptive Gastrodia orchids

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Societal Impact Statement Gastrodia orchids are inconspicuous forest plants that lack chlorophyll and obtain carbon from fungi. Their dull‐colored, ground‐level flowers are often hidden among leaf litter, yet they rely on small flies for pollination.
