First evidence for multimodal animal seed dispersal in orchids

Adam P. Karremans et al.

Summary: Identifying seed dispersal and persistence mechanisms is an important goal in ecology, and animal-mediated dispersal is a crucial form of dissemination in many plant communities. Orchids, predominantly adapted to wind dispersal, also exhibit exceptions such as bird, cricket, and mammal dispersal. Through in situ and ex situ experimentation, it has been shown for the first time that orchids in the Vanilla genus exhibit multimodal seed dispersal mechanisms, with both external and internal animal dispersal playing critical roles.

Plant ecology: Vanilla lures both insects and mammals to disperse its seeds and fruits

Kenneth M. Cameron

Summary: A new study reveals that Vanilla species have developed a unique multimodal mechanism for seed and fruit dispersal. Bees unintentionally transport the seeds externally while collecting fragrance or nest material from dehiscent fruits. Rodents and marsupials consume and disperse the aromatic fleshy fruits and their enclosed crustose seeds.

Floral synomone components of fruit fly-attracting orchids, Bulbophyllum sinapis and B. hahlianum, in Papua New Guinea

Ritsuo Nishida et al.

Summary: Papua New Guinea is the center of diversification of the largest orchid genus Bulbophyllum. This study examines the floral synomone components in two closely related Dacini fruit fly-attracting orchid species, B. sinapis and B. hahlianum, and finds that they attract different species of fruit flies. This research provides insights into their ecological adaptation mechanisms.

Chloroplast genomic diversity in Bulbophyllum section Macrocaulia (Orchidaceae, Epidendroideae, Malaxideae): Insights into species divergence and adaptive evolution

Hanqing Tang et al.

Summary: Bulbophyllum is the largest genus in Orchidaceae, considered to be one of the most taxonomically and phylogenetically complex taxa due to its significant diversifications. This study focused on the chloroplast genome diversification in a natural Asian section Macrocaulia of Bulbophyllum genus, identifying potential molecular markers for species determination and phylogenetic analysis. The findings support the monophyly of section Macrocaulia and Bulbophyllum genus, providing valuable insight for accurate species identification, taxonomy clarification, and conservation efforts.
