Pesticidal Plant Treatments Combined with Improved Soil Fertility Can Reduce Damage Caused by Fusarium Wilt (Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. phaseoli) and Bean Fly (Ophiomyia phaseoli) in Common Bean Production (Phaseolus vulgaris L.).
Common bean production is constrained by a multitude of biotic constraints including bean flies and Fusarium wilt in tropical and subtropical farming systems globally. As these pests and diseases attack the crop beneath the soil, excessive applications of synthetic pesticides are frequently used for their control. The use of plant-based... -

Soil Studies for Fungal Diversity to Enable the Conservation Translocation of Green-Winged Orchid.
Conservation Translocation (CT), which includes reintroduction, reinforcement and introduction, is gaining momentum, responding to serious population decline in many orchids. Orchid conservation underpinned by a greater emphasis on understanding biotic and abiotic factors of habitats is critical for successful recovery and restoration programmes. Anacamptis morio, commonly known as green-winged orchid... -

Praxelis cleggiae (Compositae: Eupatorieae: Praxeliinae), a new species from the granite inselbergs in the east of the Departamento de Santa Cruz, Bolivia.
(Compositae: Eupatorieae: Praxeliinae) is described and illustrated from the granite inselbergs (upon which it is most common), and on road crown chippings on old roads, in the Departamento de Santa Cruz, Bolivia; it has a disjunct distribution and is also found on the Serranía San Simón, in the San Ignacio...Hind, D.

Scientific note: Phoretic interaction between Antherophagus (Coleoptera) and Bombus funebris (Hymenoptera), using Chuquiraga jussieui (Asteraceae) as transfer stations in the páramos.
Beetles of the genus are phoretic organisms that inhabit the nests of species. They migrate and colonize new nests using the same bumblebees as carriers. Although beetles from temperate Europe and North America are known to use some plant species to move between bumblebees, it is unknown which plants are... -

My favourite flowering image: the remarkable inside-out flowers of Lacandonia.
Flowers are deceptively simple structures, characterized by a determinate primary axis that bears organs in condensed concentric zones in a strict structural and temporal sequence. Few species have escaped these constraints, but those that have can provide insights into the evolutionary history of flowers if placed in the appropriate phylogenetic...Rudall, Paula J
