Evolutionary and ecological trends in the Neotropical cycad genus Dioon (Zamiaceae): An example of success of evolutionary stasis

open access: yesEcological research
Cycads represent an example of the success of evolutionary stasis. Despite their early origin, they survived multiple events of mass extinction and diversified in modern tropical ecosystems during the Cenozoic without major changes in their morphology ...

Diel net CO2 exchange of carnivorous Pinguicula is consistent with low‐level CAM photosynthesis

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
In carnivorous butterworts (Pinguicula), CO2 uptake occurs primarily in the light via C3 photosynthesis, yet low‐level CAM photosynthesis, including net CO2 dark fixation, significantly improves the carbon balance of plants, especially under water‐deficit conditions.

Pollinator diversity and host specificity in threatened Encephalartos cycads and their implications for co‐extinction and species recovery

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1862-1877, June 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The highly threatened African cycad genus Encephalartos faces severe threats such as habitat loss and poaching. In addition, the lack of sexual recruitment due to the absence of pollinators (pollinator collapse) has emerged as another major threat.

A First Quantification of Plant Endemism in the Manica Highlands (Zimbabwe–Mozambique) and the Significance of Open Habitats

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
We present here the first quantitative assessment of plant endemics from the Manica Highlands (Zimbabwe‐Mozambique), totalling 216 taxa, representing over 9% of the estimated total flora. A major finding is that 173 (80%) endemic taxa are principally or entirely confined to open montane habitats such as grassland, bare rock, crags and scrub or dwarf ...

Intraspecific chromosome variation inZamia(Zamiaceae, Cycadales) [PDF]

open access: yesCaryologia, 1991
SUMMARYIntraspecific chromosome variation in three species of Zamia (Zamiaceae, Cycadales) from Mexico and Belize is reported. Zamia fischeri has 2n = 16 and 18, Z. picta has 2n = 21 and 22, and Zamia sp. nov. has 2n = 22 and 26. All cytotypes have two submetacentric and two acrocentric chromosomes but differ in number of metacentric and telocentric ...

Analysis of the extranucleolar ribonucleoprotein particles of Cycas revoluta Thunb. (Cycadaceae) and Ceratozamia mexicana Brongn. (Zamiaceae)

open access: yesBotan‪ical Sciences, 2022
Background: Nuclear ribonucleoprotein particles play a key role in RNA processing and in the gene expression pathway. Interchromatin granules (GICs) involved in the metabolism of pre-messenger RNA (pre-mRNA) were described in Allium cepa and ...
