Convergence and parallelism in the evolution of plant metabolism
Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 1013-1031, April 2026.Similar traits in different organisms may originate from shared ancestry or evolve independently. The terminology used to define phenotypic similarity is often confusing. This review attempts to clarify the definitions and present examples from plant domestication and specialized metabolism to explain how complex traits evolve repeatedly in plants ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 988-1013, March 2026.ABSTRACT The “salt tree”, Rhus chinensis, holds significant economic and medicinal value due to its ability to produce Galla chinensis (Chinese gall/gallnut), a plant‐derived medicinal material used in both traditional Chinese and modern medicine that is rich in tannins and flavonoids. It is also renowned for its remarkable stress tolerance.
