Abstract:
... At present, CRISPR/Cas genome editing is the most effective and fast method to produce plants with desired traits. Unlike traditional genetic engineering, this method induces precise modifications in target sites of the genome. Therefore, in addition to applied tasks, genome editing is often used for basic investigation of native plant genes. However, the CRISPR/Cas technique has so far been teste ...

Abstract:
... We experimentally tested the effects of anticipated warmer temperatures on the feeding success of invasive pumpkinseed and chameleon cichlid and the functionally similar Southern Iberian chub. Singly, prey captures by chub and the cichlid were constant but those by pumpkinseed were affected by warming. Moreover, at warmer temperatures, chub captured much less prey in the presence of the cichlid an ...

Ensuring the protection of the natural environment and its components from the damage caused by humans, whether directly or indirectly, is a commitment that can no longer be delayed or disregarded. However, before attempting to conserve wild populations of any kind of animal or plant, it is important to know which taxa are involved and where they live, as this also allows us to identify the releva ...

Abstract:
... Recent advances in molecular phylogenetics in the family Convolvulaceae Juss. (particularly in formerly recognized tribe Merremieae) have brought new insights on generic delimitation. Therefore, many species were transferred across genera to accommodate the new classification. However, additional morphological and molecular analyses are still needed to address the affinities and position of some s ...

Abstract:
... In response to unfavorable environmental conditions, some Drosera species in the northern hemisphere do not open their flowers but form bud‐like flowers. The bud‐like flowers exhibit pseudo‐cleistogamous behavior and produce similar numbers of seeds as open flowers. However, it is not clear how common this type of reproduction is in the genus Drosera. In this study, we examined the effects of flow ...

Abstract:
... AIM: Studies focusing on relatively small spatial scales have shown that alien plants are more likely to invade phylogenetically clustered communities, and that the introduction of alien plants further increases phylogenetic clustering in the recipient communities. However, whether these patterns hold at a continental scale remains untested. Here, we investigate the phylogenetic structure of nativ ...

Abstract:
... The poleward range expansion of species native to lower latitudes brings them into competition with closely related species with overlapping habitat niches that are native to higher latitudes. If species of southern origin dominate in such interspecific competitions, this may cause a decline in closely related native species. Since 2010, there has been an increase in the distribution and rediscove ...

Abstract:
... Biological invasions pose one of the most severe environmental challenges of the twenty‐first century. A longstanding idea is that invasion risk is predictable based on the phylogenetic distance – and hence ecological resemblance – between non‐native and native species. However, current evidence is contradictory. To explain these mixed results, it has been proposed that the effect is scale‐depende ...
