Threatened endemic arthropods and vertebrates partition their diets with non‐native ants in an isolated island ecosystem [PDF]
Ecology, Volume 106, Issue 7, July 2025.Abstract The success of non‐native species depends on their ability to find food, which may ultimately lead to competition with native species and contribute to biodiversity loss in invaded ecosystems. Understanding which food resources are consumed is therefore crucial for evaluating how non‐native species mechanistically fit into native biological ...

Antimicrobial activity of the essential oil of Cestrum diurnum (L.) (Solanales: Solanaceae)
African Journal of Biotechnology, 2005 Cestrum diurnum (Solanaceae: Solanales) is a single or multistemmed shrub that is also known as Day Jasmine. The essential oil of the mature leaves of C. diurnum was analyzed by GLC and GLC-MS and altogether 14 components were detected. The main constituents were palmitic acid (27.62%), stearic acid (4.62%) and oleic acid (3.06%).

The developmental basis of floral nectary diversity and evolution [PDF]
New Phytologist, Volume 246, Issue 6, Page 2462-2477, June 2025.Summary Nectar is a central bridge between angiosperms and animal mutualists. It is produced by specialized structures termed nectaries, which can be found on different plant organs. Consumption of floral nectar by pollinators and the subsequent transfer of pollen contribute to the reproductive success of both angiosperms and their pollinators.

A CYC–RAD–DIV–DRIF interaction likely pre-dates the origin of floral monosymmetry in Lamiales [PDF]
EvoDevo, 2022 Background An outstanding question in evolutionary biology is how genetic interactions defining novel traits evolve. They may evolve either by de novo assembly of previously non-interacting genes or by en bloc co-option of interactions from other ...

Pseudomonas cold shock proteins suppress bacterial effector translocation in Nicotiana benthamiana [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyIntroductionPlants detect the invasion of microbial pathogens through pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). Cold shock proteins (CSPs) are a class of PAMPs specifically recognized by Solanales plants.

A de novo long-read genome assembly of the sacred datura plant (Datura wrightii) reveals a role of tandem gene duplications in the evolution of herbivore-defense response [PDF]
BMC GenomicsThe sacred datura plant (Solanales: Solanaceae: Datura wrightii) has been used to study plant–herbivore interactions for decades. The wealth of information that has resulted leads it to have potential as a model system for studying the ecological and ...
