Tropical Density Estimation of Phylogenetic Trees
, 2023 Much evidence from biological theory and empirical data indicates that, gene tree, phylogenetic trees reconstructed from different genes (loci), do not have to have exactly the same tree topologies. Such incongruence between gene trees might be caused by

Agronomic and Nutritional Perspectives on Vegetable Crops in Africa
AgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, EarlyView.Vegetable production plays a key role in food security, nutrition, and livelihoods across Africa. Moreover, African indigenous vegetables emerge as underutilized yet highly valuable crops, rich in macro‐ and micronutrients, as well as bioactive compounds with an array of health benefits.

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Disentangling the ancestry of insular plant lineages is important for resolving their evolutionary histories but often complicated by polyploidy, an overrepresented condition in remote island floras. We used a phylogenomic approach to study the origin of subgenomes of the tetraploid Hawaiian silversword alliance and advance ...

Microbial assembly among plant parts of a tropical tree in different habitats and seasons
Microbiology SpectrumMicroorganisms are exhibited in every environment, but their role in the ecosystem and host association remains to be understood. Microbiome research highlights environmental filtering as a factor shaping microbial communities in terrestrial ecosystems ...

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Advances in the digitization of herbarium collections are enabling open access to specimen data for research and conservation. In Brazil, the Herbário Virtual Reflora (HVR) hosts over 4.8 million high‐resolution images of botanical specimens and their associated data from 86 national and international herbaria.

Herbarium‐based measurements are reliable predictors of fresh plant traits in Neotropical Myrtaceae
Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Herbarium specimens are increasingly used to extract morphological traits for ecological and evolutionary studies, yet the effects of tissue desiccation on trait measurements remain poorly understood. Here, we tested two hypotheses: (H1) whether higher tissue water content leads to greater measurement changes after herborization and ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Analysis of the variation in the bony structures of the inner and middle ear provides critical insights into functional morphology, as well as adaptive morphology across primates. In this study, we investigated whether ear morphology patterns are related to the ecological characteristics of species and their habitats to test two acoustic ...

Thermal plasticity and limitations in tropical trees
, 2022 Tropical forests are the most carbon dense and biodiverse terrestrial biome on earth. In a time of global warming and biodiversity crisis, their preservation must be of high priority.
