Differential effects of sodium nitroprusside, salicylic acid, and simvastatin on growth, leaf anatomy, biochemistry, and essential oil composition of Thymus vulgaris L.

This study evaluated how foliar application of sodium nitroprusside (SNP), salicylic acid (SA), and simvastatin (SIM) applied singly and in all pairwise combinations, affects the growth, leaf anatomy, biochemistry, and essential-oil profile of greenhouse-grown Thymus vulgaris L....

Comparative chloroplast genomics of 75 Asparagus species reveals conserved genome architecture, gene-specific positive selection, and chloroplast–nuclear phylogenetic discordance

The chloroplast genome offers a compact, maternally inherited resource for resolving evolutionary relationships in plants, yet in Asparagus it has received limited genus-wide attention relative to recent nuclear genomic efforts. Here, we de novo assembled 35 chloroplast genomes:...
