Molecular phylogenetic analysis sheds light on the diversity and evolutionary history of the Neotropical and African Triplophyllum (Tectariaceae)

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
We used a molecular approach to resolve the evolutionary lineages of Neotropical Triplophyllum, uncovering that current species circumscriptions are hindered by high morphological homoplasy in indument characters. Our results support the recognition of three new species and provide a necessary neotypification for T.

Ecological and genomic variation in ectomycorrhizal fungal exploration types

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) produce mycelia with variable extension and complexity, which can be classified according to soil ‘exploration types’ (ETs). ETs have received attention as one of the few mycorrhizal trait frameworks, but without an empirical classification of ET functional diversity and environmental preferences, understanding and ...

The genus Arthrocardia (Corallinales, Rhodophyta) in New Zealand: Description of three new species

Phycological Research, EarlyView.
SUMMARY Three new species of the coralline algal genus Arthrocardia (Corallinophycidae, Rhodophyta) are described from New Zealand: A. meridionalis, A. perplexa, and A. robusta. These species are difficult to distinguish based on morphoanatomical characters alone and require molecular sequence data for reliable identification.

How do young identify plants? Using the drawing method to explore early ethnobotanical knowledge in Madagascar

People and Nature
In small‐scale societies, people learn to identify plant species during childhood. Plant recognition is an important baseline knowledge, immediately useful to avoid intoxication risk due to wrong identification.

Reference wet grasslands to support conservation and restoration assessments in the Brazilian Savanna

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Grassy wetlands of the Cerrado provide key ecosystem services but remain largely overlooked and are rapidly disappearing, threatened by land use change and climate‐driven changes in hydrological cycles. As restoration initiatives are urgent, reference ecosystems and robust indicators are essential to guide conservation and ...

More Science Than Art: The First Botanical Garden in Portugal (c. 1650)

Renaissance Studies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gabriel Grisley, a German physician, came to Portugal and founded a garden near the Xabregas River in Lisbon, during the 1610s under the Spanish kings' rule. In view of the utility a botanic garden represented for the kingdom, he was able to obtain a royal privilege from King João IV during the Restauration War against the Spanish (1640–1668).

High‐Resolution LC–MS/MS Characterization of Budmunchiamine‐Type Alkaloids in Albizia niopoides

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 40, Issue 19, 15 October 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale Budmunchiamines are macrocyclic spermine alkaloids that constitute a distinctive class of polyamine natural products predominantly found in species of the genus Albizia. Comprehensive characterization of these compounds remains challenging because of their structural diversity and the limited availability of reference standards. This

Nomenclature Survey of the Genus Amaranthus (Amaranthaceae). 13. The Identity of Amaranthus tortuosus

Feddes Repertorium, Volume 137, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The name Amaranthus tortuosus, a species described by Hornemann in 1819, is currently treated in different ways, either as an accepted name, as a synonym of A. dubius or A. hybridus s.str., or as an unplaced name. In order to clarify its application, we reassessed its taxonomic identity within the genus Amaranthus.

Making the most of scarce biological resources in the desert: Loptuq material culture in Eastern Turkestan around 1900

Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine
Background Most fisher-gatherer communities we know of utilized a limited number of natural resources for their livelihood. The Turkic-speaking Loptuq (exonym Loplik, Loplyk) in the Lower Tarim River basin, Taklamakan desert, Eastern Turkestan (Xinjiang),
