Flora da Usina São José, Igarassu, Estado de Pernambuco, Brasil: Asteraceae [Preprint].
Asteraceae é uma das maiores famílias dentre as angiospermas, concentrada principalmente em vegetações abertas. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo realizar um inventário florístico de Asteraceae em fragmentos de Mata Atlântica da Usina São José (USJ), Igarassu, Pernambuco, oferecendo subsídios para o reconhecimento das espécies na região. Foram amostradas 32...Bazante, Márcio Lucas ; Soares, Gleison ; Loeuille, Benoît

Paternal low protein diet perturbs inter-generational metabolic homeostasis in a tissue-specific manner in mice.
The underlying mechanisms driving paternally-programmed metabolic disease in offspring remain poorly defined. We fed male C57BL/6 mice either a control normal protein diet (NPD; 18% protein) or an isocaloric low protein diet (LPD; 9% protein) for a minimum of 8 weeks. Using artificial insemination, in combination with vasectomised male mating,...Morgan, Hannah L. ; Furse, Samuel ; Dias, Irundika H. K. ; Shabir, Kiran ; Castellanos, Marcos …

Genomic insights into rapid speciation within the world’s largest tree genus Syzygium.
Species radiations, despite immense phenotypic variation, can be difficult to resolve phylogenetically when genetic change poorly matches the rapidity of diversification. Genomic potential furnished by palaeopolyploidy, and relative roles for adaptation, random drift and hybridisation in the apportionment of genetic variation, remain poorly understood factors. Here, we study these aspects...Low, Yee Wen ; Rajaraman, Sitaram ; Tomlin, Crystal M. ; Ahmad, Joffre Ali ; Ardi, Wisnu H. …

A new combination is required in Conocliniopsis (Compositae: Eupatorieae: Gyptidinae).
A new combination, , in R.M.King & H.Rob. (Compositae: Eupatorieae: Gyptidinae) is provided. An earlier assessment of Prince Maximilian Wied-Neuwied’s collections (sent by Martius to Colla), proposed that Colla’s was a new synonym of (Kunth) R.M.King & H.Rob., a Colombian endemic. A critical assessment of Wied’s collection has indicated that...Hind, D. J. Nicholas

The ECAT dataset: expert-validated distribution data of endemic and sub-endemic trees of Central Africa (Dem. Rep. Congo, Rwanda, Burundi).
In this data paper, we present a specimen-based occurrence dataset compiled in the framework of the Conservation of Endemic Central African Trees (ECAT) project with the aim of producing global conservation assessments for the IUCN Red List. The project targets all tree species endemic or sub-endemic to the Central African... -

Genome of Pythium myriotylum Uncovers an Extensive Arsenal of Virulence-Related Genes among the Broad-Host-Range Necrotrophic Pythium Plant Pathogens.
species are oomycetes, an evolutionarily distinct group of filamentous fungus-like stramenopiles. The genus includes several pathogens of important crop species, e.g., the spice ginger. The (Peronosporales, Oomycota) genus includes devastating plant pathogens that cause widespread diseases and severe crop losses. Here, we have uncovered a far greater arsenal of virulence...Daly, Paul ; Zhou, Dongmei ; Shen, Danyu ; Chen, Yifan ; Xue, Taiqiang …

Asteraceae as a model system for evolutionary studies: from fossils to genomes.
With c. 24 700 species (10% of all flowering plants), Asteraceae are one of the largest and most phenotypically diverse angiosperm families, with considerable economic and ecological importance. Asteraceae are distributed worldwide, from nearly polar latitudes all the way to the tropics, and occur across a diverse range of habitats...Palazzesi, Luis ; Pellicer, Jaume ; Barreda, Viviana D ; Loeuille, Benoît ; Mandel, Jennifer R …
