Plant–Insect Interactions on Aquatic and Terrestrial Angiosperms from the Latest Albian (Early Cretaceous) of Estercuel (Northeastern Spain) and Their Paleoenvironmental Implications

Plants, 2023
Fossils of plant–insect interactions are direct evidence of paleoecological relationships between these two dominant groups in terrestrial ecosystems. We present a variety of plant–insect interactions from the late Early Cretaceous (latest Albian) in the

First evidence of ranunculids in Early Cretaceous tropics

Scientific Reports, 2022
Early Cretaceous floras containing angiosperms were described from several geographic areas, nearly from the Arctic to the Antarctic, and are crucial to understand their evolution and radiation.

Breaking the limits - multichromosomal structure of an early eudicot Pulsatilla patens mitogenome reveals extensive RNA-editing, longest repeats and chloroplast derived regions among sequenced land plant mitogenomes

BMC Plant Biology, 2022
Background The mitogenomes of vascular plants are one of the most structurally diverse molecules. In the present study we characterize mitogenomes of a rare and endangered species Pulsatilla patens.

The contribution of embryogeny to the systematics of Polycarpi cae and Helobiae

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
The study of embryogenesis in 27 genera of Polycarpicae and Helobiae allows to determine the embryological characters of these two taxa and determine their phylogenetic bonds by comparison with other morphologic criteria.

The role of Alpine botanical gardens in integrating germplasm bank collections and mission

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
This study underscores the vital role of Alpine botanical gardens (ABGs) in safeguarding Europe's alpine biodiversity amid climate change and habitat loss. By acting as living laboratories and reservoirs of plant genetic resources, ABGs bridge ex situ and in situ conservation, supporting ecosystem resilience and informing restoration strategies.

Year‐round pollinator visitation of ornamental plants in Mediterranean urban parks

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Pollinators visiting ornamental plants in urban parks remained diverse throughout the year. They were represented by wild bees (42%), honeybees (37%), flies (18%), butterflies (2%) and beetles (1%). Both native and non‐native plants attracted pollinators.

Contrasting Phylogenetic Signals in Flowering and Fruiting Phenology at Species and Assemblage Scales in a Climbing Plant Community

Journal of Vegetation Science, Volume 36, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
This study examined the phylogenetic conservatism of flowering and fruiting in 78 climbing plant species relative to environmental gradients in a South Brazilian forest. Although species‐level analysis found a weak phylogenetic signal, a strong influence was detected at the assemblage scale, revealing that evolutionary history mediates the phenology ...

Herbivory Dominates the Spring Diet of American Black Bears (Ursus americanus) in a Wood Bison (Bison bison athabascae) Neonatal Range, Suggesting Minimal Bison Consumption

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2025.
In this study, we used scat analysis and DNA metabarcoding to analyze the spring diet of black bears in the neonatal range of a small, threatened wood bison herd in northeast Alberta to assess predation risk of neonate bison. Our results suggest that consumption rates of bison are low and that predation risk to neonate wood bison, during the RLBH's ...
