Cuticular Waxes in Altered Environments and Their Role in Leaf Water Loss Dynamics
ABSTRACT Cuticular waxes undeniably form the primary barrier restricting uncontrolled water loss from leaves, yet the functional consequences of environmentally induced wax modifications for residual (cuticular) transpiration remain a matter of debate. This review summarises current knowledge on how major abiotic stimuli influence foliar cuticular wax ...

Leaf Structure and Hormonal Balance Modulate Host‐Specificity and Pathogenicity of Botrytis cinerea
ABSTRACT Botrytis cinerea, a highly successful necrotrophic fungal plant pathogen, demonstrates a remarkably broad host range, yet the precise factors governing its host specificity and its ability to coexist non‐pathogenically with plants remain unclear. This study systematically assessed host preference in a series of B. cinerea agricultural isolates,

Ferns and lycophytes of the Cerrado State Park, Paraná, Brazil
We present a checklist of the ferns and lycophytes from the Cerrado State Park, Jaguariaíva, Paraná, Brazil. This region represents the southernmost limit of Cerrado vegetation in Brazil. The park is located along the Devonian Escarpment, one of the most

Extreme Polyploidy Reveals Functional Trade‐Offs in Plant Drought Responses
ABSTRACT Polyploidy shapes plant physiology and anatomy, yet the extent to which different ploidy levels influence drought responses remains unclear. Here, we investigated how ploidy affects cell‐level coordination and functional traits associated with water transport and retention.

The scaly tree ferns (Cyatheaceae-Polypodiopsida) of Brazil
A synopsis of all scaly tree fern species (Cyatheaceae) occurring in Brazil is presented. We recognize 51 species in three genera [Sphaeropteris one species, Alsophila four species (one subspecies, two varieties), and Cyathea 45 species (one variety ...

A fern collection made by T. G. Yuncker on 27 January 1940 from tropical rainforest forest in Niue had only been identified to its genus and lacked a species determination. Yuncker in his 1943 flora referred the collection to Athyrium Roth, whereas W. R. Sykes in his 1970 flora treated it as Diplazium Sw. Examination of the Yuncker 9916 specimen (BISH!)

The use of wild edible plants and the traditional knowledge associated with them are rapidly disappearing across the Mediterranean, with serious consequences for biodiversity, cultural heritage, and regional food security. This study compiles and organizes fragmented information to create the first comprehensive catalogue of these plants across the ...
