Antimicrobial activity of necklace orchids is phylogenetically clustered and can be predicted with a biological response method
(2021-03-12)
Necklace orchids (Coelogyninae, Epidendroideae) have been used in traditional medicine practices for centuries. Previous studies on a subset of unrelated orchid species utilized in these traditional practices revealed they ...
Pollination of Trichosalpinx (Orchidaceae: Pleurothallidinae) by biting midges (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae)
(2018)
Pleurothallidinae (Epidendreae) are a megadiverse Neotropical orchid subtribe comprising > 5100 species, most of which are probably pollinated by Diptera. The role of pollinators as drivers of species diversity is largely ...
Floral anatomy and evolution of pollination syndromes in Lepanthes and close relatives
(2019-07)
Pleurothallidinae is the largest Neotropical orchid subtribe encompassing >5100 species that are mainly dipteran-pollinated. Various pollination syndromes, targeting hump-backed flies (Phoridae), fungal gnats (Sciaridae), ...
Phylogenetic comparative methods improve the selection of characters for generic delimitations in a hyperdiverse Neotropical orchid clade
(2019)
Taxonomic delimitations are challenging because of the convergent and variable nature of phenotypic
traits. This is evident in species-rich lineages, where the ancestral and derived states and their gains
and losses are ...
