This study generated and analyzed complete plastome and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) data of 46 Lactuca species, 13 African endemic (AE) Lactuca species, and 15 species from eight related genera in Lactucinae. The new plastome and nuclear ITS sequences were then used to reconstruct the phylogenetic relationships of Lactuca species. The whole-p...

Temporal variability of plant–pollinator interactions is important for fully understanding the structure, function, and stability of plant–pollinator networks, but most network studies so far have ignored within-day dynamics. Strong diel dynamics (e.g., a regular daily cycle) were found for networks with Cichorieae, which typically close their flow...

This study provides the first comprehensive molecular phylogenetic reconstruction of the lettuce alliance (Cichorieae subtribe Lactucinae of the sunflower family) in its SW Asia centre of diversity and assumed area of origin. The sampling contains multiple samples of all SW Asian Lactucinae except four unavailable rare taxa. One nuclear ribosomal a...

The first complete mitochondrial genome (mt) of Paraprenanthes diversifolia (Vaniot) N. Kilian (Cichorieae; Asteraceae) was sequenced and successfully assembled in this study. The full length of the mt genome is 360,751 bp, containing 73 genes (33 protein-coding genes, 29 tRNA genes, 6 rRNA genes, and 5 protein-coding genes containing internal stop...

Ten years after the first overview on sesquiterpene lactones in the Cichorieae tribe of the Asteraceae family, we present an update. This review summarizes all chemosystematically relevant reports on sesquiterpene lactones and their immediate precursors from the Cichorieae (syn.: Lactuceae) tribe of the Asteraceae published between 2008 and 2017 an...

Medicinal effects of Crepidiastrum denticulatum have been previously reported. However, the genomic resources of this species and its applications have not been studied. In this study, based on the next generation sequencing method (Miseq sequencing system), we characterize the chloroplast genome of C. denticulatum which contains a large single cop...

A taxonomic revision of Taraxacum sect. Borealia Hand.-Mazz. in Middle Asia and the Himalayas is presented. Ten species, mainly confined to relatively small mountain areas, are classified as members of this section in this region. All names that might pertain to sect. Borealia have been studied, and whenever possible, their type material was examin...
