2. Leaf venation and cuticle traits of 40 Annonaceae species were examined for taxonomic value.
Traits proved useful for species and subfamily identification; areola formation showed temperature sensitivity, suggesting limited environmental influence on most traits.
Curious about systematic leaf 🍃 🍂 🍁 architectural diversity of African Annonaceae Juss. and the implications of its venation patterns? doi.org/10.1016/j.sa...

This horrific story has been confirmed to me by a colleague at the same institute as this scientist. The US is not a safe place to run an academic conference. @theguardian.com have an English language version of this story: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... 🔭🧪

Photo of a terrestrial rosette plant. The leaves are slender and bear large, red teeth on their margins.
Hechtia (Hechtioideae; 94 spp., Texas to Nicaragua) are terrestrial xerophytes. They are also dioecious and have crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM). They are attractive but well-armed. This beauty is an undetermined sp. from San Luis Potosi, Mexico. 📷: Amante Darmanin CCBY2 #botany 🌾🧪🌱
