Review of larval food plant associations of the Agaristinae (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) in Australia

Austral Entomology, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2025.
Abstract The Australian Agaristinae comprises a small group of predominantly diurnal moths with aposematic larvae and adults that are assumed to be unpalatable to most predators. A critical review of the larval food plants of this subfamily based on published records in the literature, together with unpublished records, is presented.

A Complete Generic Phylogeny of Malpighiaceae Inferred from Nucleotide Sequence Data and Morphology [PDF]

, 2010
Premise of the study: The Malpighiaceae include ∼1300 tropical flowering plant species in which generic definitions and intergeneric relationships have long been problematic.

Increasing variability in resource supply over time disrupts plant–pollinator interactions

Ecological Monographs, Volume 95, Issue 1, February 2025.
Abstract Insect–plant interactions are key determinants of plant and insect fitness, providing important ecosystem services around the world—including the Arctic region. Recently, it has been suggested that climate warming causes rifts between flower and pollinator phenology.

Adaptations of succulent plants for survival in desert ecosystems [PDF]

, 2019
Cilj ovog seminara bio je nabrojati prilagodbe sukulentnih biljaka koje su im nužne za preživljavanje u pustinjskim ekosustavima. Sukulenti su biljke koje imaju posebne morfološke i ekofiziološke prilagodbe za pojačano primanje i pohranu vode.

Morphological and molecular analyses consistently support the existence of two species under Hypochaeris achyrophorus (Asteraceae, Cichorieae)

TAXON, Volume 73, Issue 6, Page 1473-1487, December 2024.
Abstract The species boundaries in Hypochaeris sect. Seriola (Asteraceae, Cichorieae) are difficult to establish due to the phenotypic similarity between taxa. The main objective of the present study was to characterize the phylogenetic position of the annual Hypochaeris achyrophorus using plastid and nuclear DNA markers, and to determine whether some ...

Extrapolating demography with climate, proximity and phylogeny: approach with caution [PDF]

, 2016
Plant population responses are key to understanding the effects of threats such as climate change and invasions. However, we lack demographic data for most species, and the data we have are often geographically aggregated.

Repeated shifts out of tropical climates preceded by whole genome duplication

New Phytologist, Volume 244, Issue 6, Page 2561-2575, December 2024.
Summary While flowering plants have diversified in virtually every terrestrial clime, climate constrains the distribution of individual lineages. Overcoming climatic constraints may be associated with diverse evolutionary phenomena including whole genome duplication (WGD), gene‐tree conflict, and life‐history changes.

Sequencing complex plants on a budget: The development of Kalanchoë blossfeldiana as a C3, CAM comparative tool

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 1314-1328, November 2024.
Research efforts in plant biology have often been focused on sequenced and well‐studied ‘model’ organisms. Despite the advent of relatively inexpensive genome sequencing, most plant taxonomic groups are underrepresented, with few species that ‘represent’ the diversity of whole genera.

Use of eDNA and conventional sampling methods to survey rock pool (gnamma) biodiversity on granite inselbergs

Austral Ecology, Volume 49, Issue 8, August 2024.
Environmental DNA sampling coupled with high‐throughput sequencing is increasingly recognized as a useful method for assessing biodiversity with potential applications in terrestrial environments. Rock pools on granite inselbergs support diverse aquatic communities, yet the application of eDNA to document their biodiversity is lacking.
