Phylogenetic Analysis of the Zingiberales Based on rbcL Sequences
Annals of the Missouri Botanical Garden, 1993 Morphological data have been used previously to construct phylogenies of the eight families of the Zingiberales, one of the most widely accepted monophyletic groups of flowering plants. To provide additional support for phylogenetic relationships within the order, and placement of the order among monocots, we present a parsimony analysis of DNA ...

Forest type influence on Heliconia‐dipteran interaction networks
Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 660-674, May 2026.Responses to forest type depended on the developmental stage of dipterans. Bract traits and forest type influenced larval abundance, but forest type had no impact on adult alpha and beta diversity. Heliconia‐dipteran interaction networks showed a nested pattern for both forest types.

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 5, Page 1438-1457, September 2025.The primarily neotropical plant genus Heliconia has been cultivated commercially in gardens and nurseries for hundreds of years. Many of these same species are ecological keystones in their native habitats as important resources for herbivorous insects and pollinating hummingbirds, yet they face threats of habitat loss and degradation, competition with

Morphophenological characterization of ornamental ginger and selection for landscape use
Ornamental Horticulture, 2018 Many species of Zingiber have great ornamental potential, due to durability and exotic appearance of the inflorescences. Despite its large phenotypic variability, they are scarcely exploited or not yet exploited regarding the ornamental potential.

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 9, Page 6874-6896, September 2025.ABSTRACT Plants have a wide range of adaptive and protective mechanisms to cope with dehydration. Central in these processes are the Late Embryogenesis Abundant (LEA) proteins, whose levels notably increase in response to dehydration during seed development and vegetative tissues.
