Large language models unlock large text corpora in the search for data on medicinal plants and fungi
Millions of people worldwide depend on plants and fungi for their healthcare needs, yet our understanding of which species are used medicinally—and how—remains fragmented and incomplete. As part of Kew's Plants for Health service, we developed a pipeline to mine large text corpora for information on natural products, initially focusing on the medicinal

It remains unclear how many plant species are not yet recorded by science. We illustrated the process by which species of the pineapple family in tropical America have been newly described to science to date, and we estimated how many species may still await scientific discovery in this group.

Plant hybridization is increasingly recognized as an important evolutionary process, and a deeper understanding of hybridization is necessary for its application to agriculture, conservation, and ecological solutions. Here, we assess correlates of hybridization in the megadiverse and societally important family Asteraceae and how and where hybrids have

The concepts of species and subspecies are essential in describing, understanding, and conserving living organisms. This chapter discusses different approaches to delineate species and subspecies, provides examples of the factors driving speciation and divergence, and outlines recent advances in methods for identifying, delineating, and understanding ...

When alien plants become health hazards: An applied study on toxic and allergenic risks in Italy
Alien plants are often studied for their ecological harm, but their risks to human and animal health remain poorly documented. This study provides the first comprehensive catalogue of poisonous and allergenic alien plants in Italy, identifying which species are dangerous, where they grow and who is most at risk—from children in city parks to pets and ...

We compared two island populations of Bethencourtia palmensis and their culturable endophytic fungi, revealing distinct plant chemistries and a higher biopesticidal potential in the endophytic fungi from La Palma population along with high potential for the discovery of novel compounds.
