Exon‐primed intron‐crossing (EPIC) markers for evolutionary studies of Ficus and other taxa in the fig family (Moraceae)

Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 1, Issue 10, October 2013., 2013
• Premise of the study: The genus Ficus (fig trees) comprises ca. 750 species of trees, vines, and stranglers found in tropical forests throughout the world. Fig trees are keystone species in many tropical forests, and their relationship with host‐specific wasp pollinators has received much attention, although many questions remain unresolved regarding

Proposals for treating four species complexes in Ficus subgenus Urostigma section Americanae (Moraceae) [PDF]

Blumea - Biodiversity, Evolution and Biogeography of Plants, 2007
Four species complexes of Ficus subg. Urostigma sect. Americanae (Moraceae) are discussed. Four new combinations are made in Ficus americana Aubl.: subsp. andicola (Standl.) C.C. Berg, subsp. greiffiana (Dugand) C.C. Berg, subsp. guianensis (Desv.) C.C. Berg, and subsp. subapiculata (Miq.) C.C. Berg.

Strangler Figs and Their Spirits: How Indigenous Beliefs and Practices Influence an Iban Landscape, West Kalimantan, Indonesia

Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 6, November 2025.
This study explores how Iban cultural beliefs in Indonesian Borneo influence the protection and distribution of strangler figs, keystone tree species with spiritual significance. Despite agricultural expansion, sacred perceptions lead to the conservation of large figs across both forests and farmland mosaics.

Spatial Stratification of Internally and Externally Non‐Pollinating Fig Wasps and Their Effects on Pollinator and Seed Abundance in Ficus burkei

International Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Fig trees (Ficus spp.) are pollinated by tiny wasps that enter their enclosed inflorescences (syconia). The wasp larvae also consume some fig ovules, which negatively affects seed production. Within syconia, pollinator larvae mature mostly in the inner ovules whereas seeds develop mostly in outer ovules—a stratification pattern that enables mutualism ...

Strangler fig–host tree associations: Insights into the ecology and management of tropical urban green spaces

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 159-175, January 2025.
The strangler fig is known for its hemiepiphytic growth form and conspicuous strangling behavior in the tropics worldwide. It also plays an important role in providing ecological functions in tropical urban ecosystems. This study reveals strangler figs tend to colonize large trees with suitable microsites in a large tropical botanical garden and cause ...

Putting the puzzle together: the relationship between floral characters and pollinator morphology determines pollination mode in the fig–fig wasp mutualism

Plant Biology, Volume 26, Issue 7, Page 1131-1143, December 2024.
Two pollination modes (passive and active) have been described based on the variation in floral traits in the genus Ficus (Moraceae), which are related to behaviour of their pollinators (Agaonidae fig wasps). Abstract The diversification of angiosperms has largely been attributed to adaptive radiation of their pollination and mating systems, which are ...
