Physiological roles of lignins – tuning cell wall hygroscopy and biomechanics
New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 6, Page 2674-2706, December 2025.Summary Lignins constitute the second most abundant carbon‐storing biopolymers in the biosphere. These phenolic polymers accumulate in different concentrations, compositions, and localisations within and between cell wall layers and cell types. Lignins were acquired during plant terrestrialisation 450 million years ago, and the diversification of their

Pathogenicity and Protein Expression Analysis of Macrophomina pseudophaseolina in Cucumis melo
Journal of Phytopathology, Volume 173, Issue 6, November/December 2025.ABSTRACT Melon is a major crop cultivated in the Brazilian Semiarid region. Several soilborne fungal pathogens cause root rot and vine decline (RRVD) in commercial production areas. This study evaluated the pathogenicity of Macrophomina pseudophaseolina isolates in melon accessions and characterised their differentially expressed protein profiles using

Exploring the importance of aromatic plants' extrafloral volatiles for pollinator attraction
New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 2, Page 517-528, October 2025.Summary Aromatic plants occur in many plant lineages and have widespread ethnobiological significance. Yet, the ecological significance and evolutionary origins of aromatic volatile emissions remain uncertain. Aromatic emissions have been implicated in defensive interactions but may also have other important functions.

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2025, Issue 9, September 2025.Many species of the Bromeliaceae are under threat due to the fragmentation and anthropogenic pressure affecting the Atlantic Forest highlight the need to conservation efforts. The genus Hohenbergia deserves special attention in this context, as the Hohenbergia stellata complex includes endemic species that rely on diverse reproductive strategies, which

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 8, Page 1180-1195, September 2025.ABSTRACT The macauba palm (Acrocomia aculeata, Arecaceae) is a Neotropical native oil palm, increasingly important in Central and South America due to rising demand for raw materials and its potential for bioenergy. Understanding its pollinator ecology is crucial to identify new areas for cultivation. This study examines the structure of floral visitor

Phenotypic, Floristic, and Anthropogenic Drivers of the Pollen Niche of Amazonian Stingless Bees
Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 3, May 2025.The pollen diversity and composition collected by Amazonian stingless bees depend on their body mass, tree composition, and urbanization. Further, bees have been collecting fewer pollen types since the 1970s. ABSTRACT Stingless bees (Apidae: Meliponini) are major pollinators in the tropics, supporting key ecosystem services.
