Planting for healthy air: Urban biodiversity enhances natural chemical environments

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Cities urgently need nature to improve public health, support biodiversity, and increase resilience to climate change. Yet not all green spaces offer the same benefits. In this study, we show that more diverse urban plantings create richer “chemical environments”; subtle, naturally scented atmospheres formed by plant emissions that can influence how ...

Cross‐stage single‐cell and spatial metabolome analyses reveal periderm specialization and tanshinone biosynthesis in Salvia miltiorrhiza roots

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Biosynthesis and accumulation of tanshinones in the periderm of Salvia miltiorrhiza during secondary root growth. Summary Perennial herbs develop long‐lived roots that undergo repeated cycles of secondary growth, during which the periderm functions as a protective barrier and a major site of specialized metabolite accumulation.
