Contributions to Ecuadorian butterworts (Lentibulariaceae, Pinguicula): two new species and a re-evaluation of Pinguicula calyptrata [PDF]
PhytoKeys, 2023 Comparatively few species of the insectivorous genus Pinguicula L. have been recognized in South America so far. In recent years, a number of narrowly endemic taxa from the Andes have been described that simultaneously refined the broad taxonomic ...

Complete chloroplast genome sequence of the carnivorous herb Pinguicula alpina (Lentibulariaceae) [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2022 We determined the complete chloroplast genome of Pinguicula alpina, a carnivorous plant using high-throughput sequencing technology. The deduced plastome is a closed circular molecule of 147,479 bp with a quadripartite structure, including a large single-

Cross-Sectional 4D-Printing: Upscaling Self-Shaping Structures with Differentiated Material Properties Inspired by the Large-Flowered Butterwort (Pinguicula grandiflora) [PDF]
Biomimetics, 2023 Extrusion-based 4D-printing, which is an emerging field within additive manufacturing, has enabled the technical transfer of bioinspired self-shaping mechanisms by emulating the functional morphology of motile plant structures (e.g., leaves, petals ...

Biogeographical patterns and speciation of the genus Pinguicula (Lentibulariaceae) inferred by phylogenetic analyses. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2021 Earlier phylogenetic studies in the genus Pinguicua (Lentibulariaceae) suggested that the species within a geographical region was rather monophyletic, although the sampling was limited or was restricted to specific regions. Those results conflicted with

Distinctive plastome evolution in carnivorous angiosperms [PDF]
BMC Plant Biology, 2023 Background Independent origins of carnivory in multiple angiosperm families are fabulous examples of convergent evolution using a diverse array of life forms and habitats. Previous studies have indicated that carnivorous plants have distinct evolutionary

Microscopy observations reveal a new glandular morphology in four Pinguicula L. species [PDF]
BMC Research NotesThe adaxial leaf surface of butterworts (Pinguicula L.) presents specialized structures for carnivory, such as trichomes and sessile glands. The micromorphology of abaxial leaf surfaces has rarely been investigated; therefore, this study aimed to compare

From everywhere all at once: Several colonization routes available to Svalbard in the early Holocene [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 For many arctic species, the spatial (re‐)colonization patterns after the last Pleistocene glaciation have been described. However, the temporal aspects of their colonization are largely missing.

Carnivorous Plant Newsletter, 2023 The taxonomic status of Pinguicula lithophytica had been challenged both in publications and in discussions. It was proposed that P. lithophytica is conspecific with Pinguicula jaraguana. Both taxa represent Cuban endemics but they are from widely separate locations. Comparison with P.
