24 million years of pollination interaction between European linden flowers and bumble bees. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary Pollination is the most common insect–plant mutualism, binding them in a co‐evolutionary framework. Historic evidence of this interaction can be partly inferred from time‐calibrated molecular phylogenies of plant and insect lineages or directly from fossils.

Provenance Variation in Functional Traits of European Forest Trees: Meta-Analysis Reveals Effects of Taxa and Age Despite Critical Research Gaps. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis meta‐analysis on intraspecific variation in European trees studied the frequency of provenance variation, provenance–environment interaction, clinal variation along the climate of origin or transfer distance. While identifying trait group specific patterns of variation, research gaps have been identified in terms of age and geographical ...

Chrysin Exhibits Bone-Protective Effects Through Osteoclastogenesis Inhibition: In Vitro and In Vivo Evaluation in RAW 264.7 Murine Macrophages and Sprague-Dawley Rats. [PDF]
Mol Nutr Food ResThe effects of chrysin, a plant‐derived compound, were investigated on osteoclast formation in cell culture and bone health parameters in Sprague–Dawley rats. Chrysin was shown to disrupt key osteoclast signaling pathways and inhibit osteoclast formation. Furthermore, chrysin moderately improved bone health parameters in the rats.

Substrate pH mediates growth promotion and resilience to water stress of Tilia tomentosa seedlings after Ectomycorrhizal inoculation [PDF]
BMC Plant BiologyHighlights Urban trees in urban environments are commonly exposed to stresses, contributing to their health decline; Ectomycorrhizal fungi improve the vigour and resilience of Tilia seedlings, but their performance is dependent on soil pH.
