How the diversity in digestion in carnivorous plants may have evolved

New Phytologist, Volume 247, Issue 6, Page 2581-2590, September 2025.
Summary Carnivorous plants secrete digestive enzymes for prey degradation. Although carnivorous plants have a polyphyletic origin and evolved several times independently, they surprisingly co‐opted similar digestive enzymes during convergent evolution.

Evolution of petal patterning: blooming floral diversity at the microscale

New Phytologist, Volume 247, Issue 6, Page 2538-2556, September 2025.
Summary The flowers of angiosperms are extraordinarily diverse. While most floral variation is visible to the naked eye, this diversity goes beyond the macroscale: Floral organs comprise an underappreciated range of cell types that generate a multitude of patterns across their surfaces and give rise to novel structures.

Role of LEAFLESS, an AP2/ERF family transcription factor, in the regulation of trichome specialized metabolism

New Phytologist, Volume 247, Issue 2, Page 774-790, July 2025.
Summary Acylsugars, specialized metabolites produced by trichomes of many solanaceous species, provide protection against biotic and abiotic stresses. Many acylsugar metabolic enzymes have been identified; however, regulatory factors remain unknown.

CRABS CLAW‐independent floral nectary development in Penstemon barbatus

American Journal of Botany, Volume 112, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract Premise Plants secrete carbohydrate‐rich nectar from specialized floral nectary glands to attract pollinators. Arabidopsis and Petunia (rosid and asterid core eudicots, respectively) share genetic control of nectary development requiring activation of CRABS CLAW by euAGAMOUS and PLENA.

The developmental basis of floral nectary diversity and evolution

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.

Phylogenomics, historical biogeography, and diversification of leaf traits in the Malagasy‐endemic genus Uncarina (Pedaliaceae)

American Journal of Botany, Volume 112, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract Premise Uncarina contains 14 species of woody plants endemic to Madagascar. Its occurrence across dryland biomes on the island make it an interesting system to study the diversification of the flora. Methods Using samples of all species and 512 nuclear loci, we reconstructed phylogenetic trees to examine species relationships and assess their ...
