Phylogenetics of Clusia sect. Criuva (Clusiaceae) unveils a new species, reinstates an old name and clarifies sectional circumscription

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Clusia sect. Criuva has long been a taxonomic catch‐all, particularly in the final decades of the 20th century, when misapplications conflated eastern Brazilian taxa with species from the Guiana Shield. We combine herbarium‐based genome skimming, targeted fieldwork, and critical examination of historical literature and types to reassess ...

Vestigial Plastids in Parasitic Plants: Evolutionary Remnants or Adaptive Innovations?

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 5401-5420, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Throughout the evolutionary history of plants, chloroplasts originating from a cyanobacterial endosymbiosis have undergone remarkable adaptation and specialization, giving rise to a multitude of plastid types. The evolution toward parasitism in plants represents a particularly extreme case of such specialization.
