Four new endemic genera of Rubiaceae (Pavetteae) from Madagascar represent multiple radiations into drylands.
The taxonomic positions and phylogenetic relationships of six Pavetteae species endemic to Madagascar were tested with a phylogenetic study of the Afro-Madagascan representatives of the tribe Pavetteae based on sequence data from six markers , , , - , and ITS. The six species were resolved into four well-supported and... -

Protoventuria elegantula [Descriptions of Fungi and Bacteria].
A description is provided for ( ). This species is apparently very mildly parasitic, found initially on living leaves, but not forming lesions, later on moribund, then dead fallen leaves, also on dead fruits. Some information on its associated organisms and substrata, habitats, dispersal and transmission and conservation status is... -

Thecaphora affinis. [Descriptions of Fungi and Bacteria].
A description is provided for , found in dead fruits of the host plant (Astragalus), infecting and destroying the seeds, the spore mass granular, dark reddish brown, ± completely filling the fruit cavity; host fruits somewhat swollen in external view, but otherwise not visibly affected. Some information on its associated... -

Cell wall composition determines handedness reversal in helicoidal cellulose architectures of Pollia condensata fruits.
Chiral asymmetry is important in a wide variety of disciplines and occurs across length scales. While several natural chiral biomolecules exist only with single handedness, they can produce complex hierarchical structures with opposite chiralities. Understanding how the handedness is transferred from molecular to the macroscopic scales is far from trivial....
