Refining the phylogeny and taxonomy of the apple tribe Maleae (Rosaceae): insights from phylogenomic analyses of 563 plastomes and a taxonomic synopsis of Photinia and its allies in the Old World [PDF]
This study addresses the longstanding absence of a comprehensive phylogenetic backbone for the apple tribe Maleae, a deficiency attributed to limited taxon and marker sampling.

An Inverse Scaling Relationship between Stomatal Density and Mean Nearest Neighbor Distance: Evidence from a Photinia Hybrid and One of Its Parents [PDF]
Stomata are involved in transpiration and CO2 uptake by mediating gas exchange between internal plant tissues and the atmosphere. The capacity for gas exchange depends on stomatal density (SD), stomatal size, and pore dimensions.

Characterization and phylogenetic analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Photinia serratifolia [PDF]
Plant mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) are a valuable source of genetic information for a better understanding of phylogenetic relationships. However, no mitogenome of any species in the genus of Photinia has been reported.

Comparative Evaluation and Optimization of Auxin Type and Concentration on Rooting Efficiency of Photinia × fraseri Dress: Stem Cuttings Using Response Surface Methodology [PDF]
This study aimed to evaluate and optimize the effects of three auxin types—indole-3-butyric acid (IBA), naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA)—applied at four concentrations (1000, 3000, 5000, and 8000 ppm) on the rooting ...

Two New Triterpenoids from Photinia serrulata [PDF]
Two new triterpenoids, 2α,3β,11α,13β-tetrahydroxy-12-ketooleanan-28-oic acid(1) and 3β-hydroxy-12-keto-9(11)-ursen-28,13β-olide (2) were isolated from the leaves ofPhotinia serrulata. Their structures were identified by spectral methods.

The Effect of Aronia melanocarpa (Chokeberry) on Body Weight and Fasting Blood Sugar: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomised Controlled Trials. [PDF]
Graphical summary illustrating the effects of Aronia melanocarpa (Chokeberry) consumption on metabolic parameters based on a systematic review and meta‐analysis of randomized controlled trials. The analysis showed no significant changes in body weight, BMI, WC, or FBS. ABSTRACT Background Plant derivatives, particularly anthocyanin‐rich phytochemicals,

Significant correlation between leaf vein length per unit area and stomatal density: evidence from Red Tip and Chinese photinias [PDF]
The vascular veins in photosynthetic leaves play an important role in transporting water and sugars throughout the plant body, and their venation pattern and vein density determine the hydraulic efficiency of the leaf. Likewise, stomatal density (SD) can
