Two perennial goldenrods, Solidago canadensis and S. gigantea (Asteraceae), are considered successful plant invaders with an exceptional ability to affect the biodiversity and environment of native ecosystems in Europe. ...

Plants constitute the foundation of life on Earth, providing oxygen, food, and ecosystem services essential for human well-being. At the same time, they are among the most threatened components of biodiversity, with curr...

The planting altitude of coffee is one of the important influencing factors on coffee quality. The effects of four planting altitudes (1,000 m, AT1; 1,200 m, AT2; 1,400 m, AT3; and 1,600 m, AT4) on the microorgan...

To improve early detection of invasive tree pathogens, foliar putative pathogenic fungal communities in reciprocal ex patria sentinel plantings across three continents were examined. Geographic location and tree species ...

Sisal fibre handicrafts, common in tropical regions, traditionally relied on plant-based dyes. However, these have largely been replaced by synthetic dyes, contributing to the loss of traditional knowledge. This study ai...

Abstract Background Melissa officinalis (balm) is a perennial medicinal. Climate change and high cultivation costs necessitate the breeding of new cultivars with improved stress tolerance and high metabolite content. How...

BackgroundMango (Mangifera indica L.) is an economically important tropical fruit crop, yet the genomic diversity of mango germplasm from the Jazan region of Saudi Arabia—the country's primary production hub—remains ...

Kalatop–Khajjiar Wildlife Sanctuary represents one of the ecologically significant forested landscapes of the northwestern Himalaya; however, updated and systematic documentation of its vascular flora has remained limi...

Abstract The escalating antibiotic resistance in oral pathogens, particularly Streptococcus mutans, necessitates the discovery of alternative bioactive scaffolds. While Piper crocatum (red betel) is an ethnobotanically s...

Abstract Soils are the primary environmental reservoir of plant pathogens impacting food production and ecosystem productivity worldwide. Yet, some soils can also suppress pathogens through environmental and microbial re...
