Xeromorphism of trichomes in Lamiaceae species

Acta Botanica Croatica, 2001
The xeromorphic adaptation of epidermal cells of Lamiaceae plant leaves, the consequence of their adaptation to an arid habitat, was investigated. These xerophytic species inhibit transpiration in different ways, depending on the number, the form and the position of trichomes, whether they are dead hairs or live glandular structures.

Fetal glucose availability: a key regulator of the metabolic, hormonal and contractility profiles of the fetal sheep heart

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend To investigate the role of glucose availability in fetal left ventricle (LV) development, this study assessed whether maternal late gestation undernutrition (LGUN; 50% of Control diet) induced alterations in the contractility, metabolic, and hormonal profile can be ameliorated in LGUN fetuses receiving glucose infusion (LGUN+G ...

First fine mapping of a trichome trait gene in garden stock (Matthiola incana)

Scientia Horticulturae
This study reports the first gene fine mapping in garden stock (Matthiola incana), focusing on the trichome trait gene originally named Trichome Trait (MiTT). As an important ornamental plant, the trichome trait in M.

Spatial analysis of cell patterning to aid genetic and phenotypic understanding of grass stomatal density: A case study in maize

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Biological processes involve complex hierarchies where composite traits result from multiple component traits. However, holistically understanding of how sets of component traits interact to underpin genotype‐to‐phenotype relationships is generally lacking.

Piper longiapiculatum (Piperaceae), a New Species From the Brazilian Amazon Piper longiapiculatum (Piperaceae), uma Nova Espécie da Amazônia Brasileira

Feddes Repertorium, Volume 137, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT In order to address the many lacunae in Amazonian Piper taxonomy and geography, we performed a field expedition in the Serra do Divisor National Park (Acre state, Brazil), resulting in the discovery of a new species, Piper longiapiculatum, herein described and compared to morphologically similar taxa.

Grass species and climatic season impact on Rhipicephalus microplus temporal abundance in a tropical region

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8950-8962, September 2026.
The interaction between grass species and climatic season shapes the population dynamics of the cattle tick, Rhipicephalus microplus. This information highlights the potential of forage species to influence off‐host tick dynamics. Additionally, minimum temperature and minimum relative humidity were the most influential microclimatic predictors of ...

Genetic analyses of leaf traits in an interspecific Zoysia japonica × Zoysia matrella F2 population

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Zoysiagrass (Zoysia spp.) is an important warm‐season turfgrass cultivated across tropical, subtropical, and temperate regions of the world. The genus is characterized by the presence of salt‐secreting glands on the adaxial leaf surface, which contribute to its high salt tolerance.

Transfer of Potentially Toxic Metal(loid)s From Ultramafic Soils in a Tri‐Trophic Food Chain Experiment

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 5, September 2026.
Potentially toxic metal(loid)s (PTMs) bioaccumulated across a plant‐herbivore‐predator food chain. Irrespective of soil concentrations, female crickets actively selected PTM‐enriched leaves, while predatory mantids showed no developmental impairment. Trophic transfer of PTMs was rather influenced more by a function of intrinsic species traits than by ...

A drought stress‐induced MYB transcription factor regulates pavement cell shape in leaves of European aspen (Populus tremula)

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 5, Page 2688-2705, September 2026.
MYB305a promoter expression increases in pavement cells as they grow and acquire their complex shape. Summary Leaf pavement cells of many plant species develop jigsaw puzzle‐like shapes in which neighboring cells interdigitate, providing an ideal model for the study of cell shape regulation.

Chitosan‐induced modulation of secondary metabolism and stress tolerance in Salvia rosmarinus under combined drought and heat stress

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 10, Page 5989-6001, 15 August 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Abiotic stresses, particularly drought and elevated temperatures, negatively affect plant physiological and metabolic processes. This study investigated the effects of drought, heat, and combined stress on Salvia rosmarinus (rosemary), and evaluated foliar‐applied chitosan as a biostimulant.
