Gundelia tournefortii L. (Akkoub): a review of a valuable wild vegetable from Eastern Mediterranean.
L. (Asteraceae) is an artichoke-like wild edible vegetable that grows in the semi-arid climate of the East Mediterranean. Due to its high cultural and economic values for culinary and therapeutic uses, this plant is exposed to overharvesting driven by household consumption and trade, threatening the survival of natural populations. Some...Hani, N. ; Abulaila, K. ; Howes, M.-J. R. ; Mattana, E. ; Bacci, S. …

The Tahitian chestnut [Inocarpus fagifer (Parkinson ex F.A.Zorn) Fosberg, Fabaceae], a neglected multi-purpose tree from the Asia–Pacific region.
The Tahitian (or Polynesian) chestnut is distributed widely in tropical South-East Asia and in the Pacific region. It is an important component in traditional agroforestry systems. However, its importance as a food plant has decreased considerably. There is no evidence that the species has ever been domesticated, nor that deliberate...Müller, Jonas V.

A biogeographical appraisal of the threatened South East Africa Montane Archipelago ecoregion..
Recent biological surveys of ancient inselbergs in southern Malawi and northern Mozambique have led to the discovery and description of many species new to science, and overlapping centres of endemism across multiple taxa. Combining these endemic taxa with data on geology and climate, we propose the ‘South East Africa Montane... -

A framework for tracing timber following the Ukraine invasion.
Scientific testing including stable isotope ratio analysis (SIRA) and trace element analysis (TEA) is critical for establishing plant origin, tackling deforestation and enforcing economic sanctions. Yet methods combining SIRA and TEA into robust models for origin verification and determination are lacking. Here we report a (1) large Eastern European timber... -

A new R package to parse plant species occurrence records into unique collection events efficiently reduces data redundancy.
Biodiversity data aggregators, such as Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) suffer from inflation of the number of occurrence records when data from different databases are merged but not fully reconciled. The ParseGBIF workflow is designed to parse duplicate GBIF species occurrence records into unique collection events (gatherings) and to optimise...
