Convergent Patterns of Karyotype Evolution Underlying Karyotype Uniformity in Conifers

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 7, February 17, 2025.
The remarkable karyotype uniformity observed in gymnosperms has long posed an evolutionary puzzle. This study proposes a model of karyotype evolution in gymnosperms, highlighting the rarity of both polyploidy and dysploidy as key factors underlying this uniformity.

Inbreeding Depression Manifested in Progeny From Fragmented Populations of the Wind‐Pollinated Dioecious Conifer Afrocarpus gracilior (Pilg.) C. N. Page

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2025.
Forest fragmentation in Afrocarpus gracilior reduced genetic diversity and caused significant inbreeding depression, especially in smaller populations. Progeny from these populations showed lower genetic diversity, reduced germination rates, slower growth, and diminished survival. Seeds should be sourced from larger, genetically diverse populations for

Three new C-14 oxygenated taxanes from the wood of Taxus yunnanensis

, 2002
Three new C-14 oxygenated taxane-type diterpenes, hongdoushans A 12C (1 123), were isolated from the wood of Taxus yunnanensis together with four known diterpenes and two lignans. The absolute stereochemistry of the 2-methylbutyryloxy group attached at C-

Plant‐Based Biosynthesis of Metal and Metal Oxide Nanoparticles: An Update on Antimicrobial and Anticancer Activity

ChemBioEng Reviews, Volume 11, Issue 6, December 2024.
When it comes to finding novel ways to battle newly developing pathogenic strains and illnesses, nanoparticles are the first line of defense. Plant‐based nanoparticles are showing more significance over chemically or physically synthesized nanoparticles. Several plant species and their constituent parts have found several applications in medicine. They

Climate change vulnerability and conservation strategies for tertiary relict tree species: Insights from landscape genomics of Taxus cuspidata

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2024.
Abstract The unprecedented habitat fragmentation or loss has threatened the existence of many species. Therefore, it is essential to understand whether and how these species can pace with the environmental changes. Recent advantages in landscape genomics enabled us to identify molecular signatures of adaptation and predict how populations will respond ...

Local adaptation and demographic history of vulnerable conifer Cephalotaxus oliveri in southern China

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 457-474, May 2024.
In this study, we generated transcriptome data and identified 17 728 high‐quality single‐nucleotide polymorphisms from 18 Cephalotaxus oliveri populations. We found significant negative correlations between expression diversity and nucleotide diversity within and among populations. The analyses of population structure showed that C.
