Cranial ecomorphology of turtles and neck retraction as a possible trigger of ecological diversification. [PDF]
Evolution, 2022 Abstract Turtles have a highly modified body plan, including a rigid shell that constrains postcranial anatomy. Skull morphology and neck mobility may therefore be key to ecological specialization in turtles. However, the ecological signal of turtle skull morphologies has not been rigorously evaluated, leaving uncertainties about the roles of ...

American Journal of Botany, Volume 110, Issue 10, October 2023., 2023 Abstract Premise Alismataceae, a sub‐cosmopolitan family with ca. 17 genera and 113 species, is a large group of aquatic plants. Compression/impressions and bioinclusions of reproductive parts in amber support the documentation of the lineage in low‐latitude North America. In Mexico, fossil aquatic plants have been infrequently documented.

The dynamic multi‐functionality of leaf water transport outside the xylem
New Phytologist, Volume 239, Issue 6, Page 2099-2107, September 2023., 2023 Summary A surge of papers have reported low leaf vulnerability to xylem embolism during drought. Here, we focus on the less studied, and more sensitive, outside‐xylem leaf hydraulic responses to multiple internal and external conditions. Studies of 34 species have resolved substantial vulnerability to dehydration of the outside‐xylem pathways, and ...

Extending the elemental defence hypothesis in the light of plant chemodiversity
New Phytologist, Volume 239, Issue 5, Page 1545-1555, September 2023., 2023 Summary Some plant species tolerate and accumulate high levels of metals or metalloids in their tissues. The elemental defence hypothesis posits that metal(loid) hyperaccumulation by these plants can serve as protection against antagonists. Numerous studies support this hypothesis.

New Phytologist, Volume 233, Issue 4, Page 1657-1666, February 2022., 2022 Summary The prevalence of local adaptation and phenotypic plasticity among populations is critical to accurately predicting when and where climate change impacts will occur. Currently, comparisons of thermal performance between populations are untested for most marine species or overlooked by models predicting the thermal sensitivity of species to ...

Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 13, Issue 5, September-October 2025.Abstract Premise This study capitalized on a library of single‐nucleotide polymorphisms created via whole genome sequencing (WGS) to develop and test a PCR assay for detecting toxic Digitalis species in food products. Complex foods can be difficult to analyze, but safeguarding consumer well‐being and public health necessitates that products regulated ...

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 28, July 24, 2025.Root‐knot nematode (RKN) disease seriously affects the yield and quality of vegetable crops. SlDOF9‐SlSWEET17 model helps plants resist RKN infection during early stage by switching off the sugar transport capacity of other SlSWEET proteins that are hijacked by RKNs.
