Nomenclatural notes on Iris haussknechtii (Iridaceae)
The nomenclatural notes, discussed in the present communication, are based on the revision of Iris Linnaeus (1753: 38) names described from Turkey, considering this genus in its wide sense (e.g., Dykes 1924, Mathew 1989, Güner 2012). Iris haussknechtii Bornm. ex Baker (1892: 4) is a species endemic to Turkey referred...Boltenkov, Eugeny ; Govaerts, Rafaël

Diversity of Albanian Cladoniaceae
As a result of collections made during the years 2009-2017, the number of Cladoniaceae species is enlarged to 27 species, providing fifteen new records to Albanian Cladonia. The distribution of many of the previously mentioned taxa is extended and the chemical variability for many of the species is discussed. Cladonia...Burgaz, Ana Rosa ; Luna-González, Sandra ; Gutiérrez-Larruga, Blanca ; Pino-Bodas, Raquel ; Lőkös, László …

Rubroshiraia gen. nov., a second hypocrellin-producing genus in Shiraiaceae (Pleosporales)
Shiraiaceae is an important family in Pleosporales (Dothideomycetes), which includes medical fungi and plant pathogens. Two hypocrellin-producing taxa, Shiraia bambusicola and a novel genus Rubroshiraiagen. nov., typified by Rubroshiraia bambusae are treated in this article. Maximum likelihood analysis, generated via RAxML (GTR+G model), using a combined SSU, LSU, TEF1 and...Dai, Dong-Qin ; Wijayawardene, Nalin N. ; Tang, Li-Zhou ; Liu, Chao ; Han, Li-Hong …

Molecular phylogeny of the large South American genus Eriosyce (Notocacteae, Cactaceae): Generic delimitation and proposed changes in infrageneric and species ranks
Eriosyce is one of most species‐rich genera within Notocacteae (Cactaceae) harboring a variety of stem and flower morphologies, and fruits with basal abscission. The lack of a well‐sampled molecular phylogeny contributes to the current taxonomic instability of the genus, where its circumscription and infrageneric classification has been questioned. Specimens of...Guerrero, Pablo C. ; Walter, Helmut E. ; Arroyo, Mary T. K. ; Peña, Carol M. ; Tamburrino, Italo …

Gone with the wind: sequencing its type species supports inclusion of Cryptolechia in Gyalecta (Ostropales: Gyalectaceae)
AbstractCryptolechia carneolutea is the type species of the genus Cryptolechia, a rare taxon classified as endangered in the UK, now largely confined to ancient Fraxinus trees. The only tree with abundant growth of the species in one of its strongholds, the Slapton Ley National Nature Reserve in Devon, was blown...Lücking, Robert ; Moncada, Bibiana ; Hawksworth, David

Genomics of sorghum local adaptation to a parasitic plant
Host–parasite coevolution can maintain high levels of genetic diversity in traits involved in species interactions. In many systems, host traits exploited by parasites are constrained by use in other functions, leading to complex selective pressures across space and time. Here, we study genome-wide variation in the staple crop Sorghum bicolor...Bellis, Emily S. ; Kelly, Elizabeth A. ; Lorts, Claire M. ; Gao, Huirong ; DeLeo, Victoria L. …

Convergent evolution in calyptrate flowers of Syzygieae (Myrtaceae)
Abstract Shedding a fused perianth as a calyptra at anthesis is a trait that has evolved independently multiple times in angiosperm evolutionary history. However, calyptras do not correspond to homologous structures in all cases. Here, we describe calyptra development in the evolutionary context of Myrtaceae tribe Syzygieae. We use scanning...Vasconcelos, Thais N C ; Lucas, Eve J ; Conejero, Maria ; Giaretta, Augusto ; Prenner, Gerhard

Genome size variation at constant chromosome number is not correlated with repetitive DNA dynamism in Anacyclus (Asteraceae)
Abstract Background and Aims Changes in the amount of repetitive DNA (dispersed and tandem repeats) are considered the main contributors to genome size variation across plant species in the absence of polyploidy. However, the study of repeatome dynamism in groups showing contrasting genomic features and complex evolutionary histories is needed...Vitales, Daniel ; Álvarez, Inés ; Garcia, Sònia ; Hidalgo, Oriane ; Nieto Feliner, Gonzalo …

Population structure and genetic diversity of Magnolia cubensis subsp. acunae (Magnoliaceae): effects of habitat fragmentation and implications for conservation
Abstract Genetic data on threatened plant populations can facilitate the development of adequate conservation strategies to reduce extinction risk. Such data are particularly important for species affected by habitat fragmentation such as Magnolia cubensis subsp. acunae, a Critically Endangered magnolia subspecies endemic to Cuba. Using genetic data from 67 individuals,...Hernández, Majela ; Palmarola, Alejandro ; Veltjen, Emily ; Asselman, Pieter ; Testé, Ernesto …
