Response of Spontaneous Plant Communities to Sedum mexicanum Cover and Water Availability in Green Roof Microcosms

Land, 2023
Lack of maintenance can lead to ‘weedy’ spontaneous vegetation on green roofs. Aspects of green roof design, including substrate depth and roof height, have been shown to influence the composition of spontaneous vegetation.

Remediation mechanism of “double-resistant” bacteria—Sedum alfredii Hance on Pb- and Cd-contaminated soil

Ecological Processes, 2022
Background Concentrations of heavy metals continue to increase in soil environments as a result of both anthropogenic activities and natural processes. Cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) is one of the most toxic heavy metals and pose health risks to both humans ...

A review of non‐native scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccomorpha: Coccoidea) of Australia and the challenges in maintaining current and accurate pest lists

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Over 870 species of scale insects, also called coccoids (infraorder Coccomorpha), have been recorded from Australia. Here, we systematically review literature, databases and collections to provide a revised assessment of non‐native species to Australia, for which we confirm those species that are introduced and extant in Australia (including ...

A novel release kinetics evaluation of Chinese compound medicine: Application of the xCELLigence RTCA system to determine the release characteristics of Sedum sarmentosum compound sustained-release pellets

Saudi Pharmaceutical Journal, 2018
Purpose: To establish a novel release kinetics evaluation method of Chinese compound medicine (Sedum Sarmentosum compound) with xCELLigence Real-Time Cell-based Assay (RTCA) system. Methods: Cell lines sensitive to Sedum Sarmentosum compound are screened,

Temperature and the evolution of flower color: A review

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Flower colors brighten our natural world. How and why have they evolved? How might ongoing global warming alter their evolutionary trajectories? In this review, I examine the influence of ambient temperature on the evolution of flower color.

More than flowers: Habitat type, floral resources, and landscape context shape pollinator communities in villages

Ecological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Wild pollinator diversity has been widely studied in agricultural habitats and increasingly also in cities, but the value of small settlements like villages in rural areas for pollinators is mainly unknown. Public green spaces and village gardens could serve as refuges from agricultural intensification and habitat loss.

Mowing Modulates the Biotic Filter of Expansive Species

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Management type and expansive species influence plant community diversity in complex ways. Overall increase of expansive species cover acts as biotic filter in reducing the alpha and beta taxonomic and phylogenetical diversity. However, the filtering effect is modulated by management type, being more intense under mown grasslands.

Phylogenetic Relatedness Determines Heterospecific Pollen–Pistil Compatibility and Reproductive Outcome in the Apocarpous Species Sagittaria trifolia (Alismataceae)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study investigates heterospecific pollen (HP) effects in Sagittaria trifolia, an apocarpous plant with an extragynoecial compitum. HP–pistil compatibility and resulting seed set reduction were greatest from phylogenetically close donors, not influenced by origin or pollen traits.

Role of reduced glutathione in Zn and Cd hyperaccumulation in Sedum alfredii H

浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2007
Hyperaccumulating ecotype of Sedum alfredii H. was treated with 1000 μmol·L-1 Zn(NO3)2 or 200 μmol·L-1 CdCl2 for 25 days. Zn and Cd concentrations in plants, total sulphur (S) and reduced glutathione (GSH) in shoots, were detected every 5 days after ...
