Apomixis in Systematics, Evolution and Phylogenetics of Angiosperms: Current Developments and Prospects Open
Apomixis, the reproduction via asexually formed seed, is taxonomically scattered in angiosperms.
\nHere we review the major developmental pathways to apomixis and the occurrences on the
\nlevel of orders and families. We provide surveys of…

Implementation of a targeted trap-neuter-return programme to manage the population of free- roaming cats (Felis silvestris catus) on Flores Island, Azores Open
Background The negative impact posed by the uncontrolled growth of free-roaming cat populations, namely spread of diseases, public nuisance, and predation of wildlife, has prompted the development of ethical solutions to control cat popula…

Unravelling the Combined Use of Soil and Microbial Technologies to Optimize Cultivation of Halophyte Limonium algarvense (Plumbaginaceae) Using Saline Soils and Water Open
Salt-affected soils have detrimental effects on agriculture and ecosystems. However, these soils can still be used for halophyte (salt-tolerant plants) cultivation using brackish and/or saline water. In this study, we employed soil technol…

Ovule Transcriptome Analysis Discloses Deregulation of Genes and Pathways in Sexual and Apomictic Limonium Species (Plumbaginaceae) Open
The genus Limonium Mill. (sea lavenders) includes species with sexual and apomixis reproductive strategies, although the genes involved in these processes are unknown. To explore the mechanisms beyond these reproduction modes, transcriptom…

Secretory structures in plants: Lessons from the Plumbaginaceae on their origin, evolution and roles in stress tolerance Open
The Plumbaginaceae (non‐core Caryophyllales) is a family well known for species adapted to a wide range of arid and saline habitats. Of its salt‐tolerant species, at least 45 are in the genus Limonium ; two in each of Aegialitis , Limonias…

<i>Limonium mucronatum</i>: plant communities and cytogenetic characterization of an endemic of the Moroccan Atlantic Coast Open
Limonium mucronatum (L.f.) Chaz. (Plumbaginaceae), a strict endemic of Morocco, has a restricted range in the littoral zone between Rabat and Tan Tan (Draa valley). This coastal region at the junction of Mediterranean, Canary and Saharan i…

Nonreduction via meiotic restitution and pollen heterogeneity may explain residual male fertility in triploid marine halophyte Limonium algarvense (Plumbaginaceae) Open
The cosmopolitan halophylic genus Limonium (Plumbaginaceae) presents high cytogenetic interest because of the natural occurrence of diploid and polyploid variants. Natural triploids are very rare in nature but common in this genus, includi…
