Genome size in the UK Fabaceae flora and how this relates to their nitrogen and water tolerance
Genome size (GS) is defined as the total DNA amount in the unreplicated nucleus of an organism, often used synonymously with ‘1C value’. GS varies greatly in flowering plants. Nitrogen (N) and water are considered major limiting factors for plant growth, and their availability could correlate with plants’ GS. Nitrogen...Pollitt, Lauren

Explaining barkcloth properties through plant anatomy
Barkcloth, a material derived from the beaten inner bark of plants, is an ancient textile of widespread origins, recorded in Africa, South America, Europe, Asia, and Oceania, especially the Polynesian Islands. An antiquated craft, the practice of making barkcloth is kept alive by the cultural and spiritual significance it retains...Saad, Roberto

Revision of Chassalia (Rubiaceae) in Borneo
The genus Chassalia in Borneo is revised based on a morphological survey of herbarium specimens using classical taxonomic methods. The tribal placement and probable paraphyly of Chassaliaas currently delimited is reviewed. Previously four described species of Chassalia were known from Borneo with only one endemic species Chassalia psychotrioides . 12...Yu, Tianyi

Revisiting generic concepts in the Teloschistaceae (lichenforming Ascomycota) using molecular phylogenetics, algorithmic taxa delimitation and molecular networks
In systematics, genera delimitation is constantly changing as taxonomic units above species level are not standardised. The Teloschistaceae, a diverse family of lichenised fungi, represents an extreme example of this where the number of genera has increased tenfold in the last decade. Many of these genera are based solely on...Llewellyn, Theo

Biogeography and conservation status of the endangered species Varronia bellonis
Varronia bellonis (Boraginaceae) is a threatened (Critically Endangered) species, endemic to the Caribbean island of Puerto Rico where it’s restricted to the island’s western and central-north regions. Ongoing international collaboration is researching key aspects of the species phylogenetic placement, biogeography and conservation status to inform its conservation. Desk and field-based...Maldonado Castro, Anthony

Are orchid pollens recalcitrant?
It has been suggested that Orchidaceae species may have recalcitrant (desiccation sensitive) pollen. We explored drying responses in 23 species from the subfamily Epidendroideae by sampling the Kew living collection and drying the pollen to two conditions (70% RH, control for drying time) and 33% RH. Drying was for 3...Zhu, Yan

Estimating Boyacá’s macrofungal diversity
Colombia is among the world’s most biodiverse countries, but despite being listed as the country with the second-highest number of flowering plants under the Convention on Biological Diversity, there is little information about the country’s fungal diversity. The area of study for this project, Boyacá, is particularly data-poor for fungi....Colson, Isobel
