Potential adaptive strategies for 29 sub-Saharan crops under future climate change
Climate change is expected to severely impact cultivated plants and consequently human livelihoods, especially in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Increasing agricultural plant diversity (agrobiodiversity) could overcome this global challenge given more information on the climatic tolerance of crops and their wild relatives. Using >200,000 worldwide occurrence records for 29 major crops... -

Drymaria veliziae (Caryophyllaceae), a new species from the Andes of Cajamarca (North Peru)
A new species from the Northern Peruvian Andes (Cajamarca department), Drymaria veliziaesp. nov., is proposed in the present paper. It grows in the high-elevation montane grasslands and it is morphologically similar to D. auriculipetala from which it differs in having elliptic-ovate leaves, blade margin bases glandular, large number of stipules...Montesinos-Tubée, Daniel B. ; Tovar, Carolina ; Iberico-Vela, Gustavo ; Montoya-Quino, Juan ; Sanchez-Vega, Isidoro

Colombia’s bioregions as a source of useful plants.
The aim of our study was to assess the importance of different Colombian bioregions in terms of the supply of useful plant species and the quality of the available distribution data. We assembled a dataset of georeferenced collection localities of all vascular plants of Colombia available from global and local... -
