Biting or irritating insects are a threat to the health and welfare of grazing animals. This systematic review reveals that several shrubs and bushes growing in the alpine area have insecticidal, insect‐repellent and/or attractant properties. The alder Alnus glutinosa, juniper Juniperus communis, spruce Picea abies and walnut Juglans regia are ...

THE ANATOMICAL CHARACTERS OF Ampelocissus (Vitaceae) IN SUMATRA
The revision of Ampelocissus was performed by observing the anatomical character of Ampelocissus leaves. The leaves were collected from 33 collection numbers of Herbarium Bogoriense (BO) and four collection numbers from Sumatra exploration. The purpose of this study is to update the information of diversity and to support species concept delimitation ...

SUMMARY The legume family originated ca. 60–65 million years ago and soon diversified into at least six lineages (now extant subfamilies). The signal of whole genome duplications (WGD) is apparent in species sampled from all six subfamilies. The early diversification has posed difficulties for resolving the legume backbone structure and the timing of ...

Invasive plants optimize leaf nitrogen allocation in photosynthesis
Summary Invasive plants often outcompete co‐occurring native species by expressing acquisitive functional traits that promote high photosynthetic capacity. However, it remains unclear whether these traits are newly evolved in the introduced (‘away’) range or if invaders arrived preadapted with superior traits from their native (‘home’) range.

ABSTRACT Understanding how leaves and roots modulate their water relations under drought is critical for predicting plant stress resistance/resilience. We compared water relations traits derived on water potential isotherms in 10 young woody and herbaceous species grown under the same soil and irrigation conditions (well‐watered vs.
