Optimization by Response Surface Methodology of Biodiesel Production from Podocarpus falcatus Oil as a Cameroonian Novel Nonedible Feedstock

open access: yesJournal of Chemistry, 2022
The production of methyl esters (biodiesel) by the transesterification of Podocarpus falcatus oil (PFO) with methanol was optimized by response surface methodology (RSM) using the Box-Behnken design.

Archaeological Podocarpus tar supports the cognitive complexity of Neanderthals. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2023
Schmidt et al. (1) present findings of an African Middle Stone Age (MSA) method likely used to make tar adhesives from Podocarpus leaves. They conclude that the process shows the innovative potential and cognitive complexity of MSA humans.

Pollen morphology, deep learning, phylogenetics, and the evolution of environmental adaptations in Podocarpus. [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytol
Podocarpus pollen morphology is shaped by both phylogenetic history and the environment. We analyzed the relationship between pollen traits quantified using deep learning and environmental factors within a comparative phylogenetic framework.

Phylogenetic reconciliation provides new insights into the evolutionary diversification of the glutamine synthetase gene family in seed plants. [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS J
Phylogenetic analyses of glutamine synthetase (GS) in seed plants revealed that all three major evolutionary lineages (GS2, GS1a, and GS1b) must have been present in the common ancestor, with GS2 being the first lineage to diverge. Unlike GS1b, GS1a and GS2 are usually single‐copy genes, even though they underwent duplications that resulted in ...

Naturally Occurring 8ß,13ß-kaur-15-en-17-al and Anti-Malarial Activity from Podocarpus polystachyus Leaves

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2022
Despite much interest and studies toward the genus Podocarpus, the anti-malarial evaluation of Podocarpus polystachyus’s phytoconstituents remains lacking. Herein, the phytoconstituents of P.

Quality assessment and nutrient uptake and utilization in Luohan pine (Podocarpus macrophyllus) seedlings raised by chitosan spraying in varied LED spectra

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Target seedling cultivation pursues high quality and nutrient utilization instead of increasing growth and size. Exposure to light-emitting diode (LED) spectra is a well-known approach that can accelerate growing speed in tree seedlings, but it is still ...
