Published in 2017 at "Molecular Biology Reports"

DOI: 10.1007/s11033-017-4140-1

Abstract: Genlisea aurea A.St.-Hil. is a carnivorous plant endemic species to Brazil in the Lentibulariaceae family. Very few studies have addressed the genetic structure and conservation status of G. aurea and the Lentibulariaceae. Microsatellites markers are… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Brazilian Journal of Microbiology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.bjm.2017.12.013

Abstract: Carnivorous plant species, such as Utricularia spp., capture and digest prey. This digestion can occur through the secretion of plant digestive enzymes and/or by bacterial digestive enzymes. To comprehend the physiological mechanisms of carnivorous plants,… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Trends in plant science"

DOI: 10.1016/j.tplants.2017.12.004

Abstract: The carnivorous plant Dionaea possesses very sensitive mechanoreceptors. Upon contact with prey an action potential is triggered which, via an electrical network - comparable to the nervous system of vertebrates - rapidly closes its bivalved… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Plant biology"

DOI: 10.1111/plb.70128

Abstract: Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is a photosynthetic adaptation enabling higher CO2 concentration close to Rubisco and increased water use efficiency. It evolved in at least 38 plant families, none reported to be carnivorous. Here, we… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Biomimetics"

DOI: 10.3390/biomimetics8020162

Abstract: Many pivotal and knotty engineering problems in practical applications boil down to optimization problems, which are difficult to resolve using traditional mathematical optimization methods. Metaheuristics are efficient algorithms for solving complex optimization problems while keeping… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "International Journal of Molecular Sciences"

DOI: 10.3390/ijms21145143

Abstract: Carnivorous plants from the Lentibulariaceae form a variety of standard and novel vegetative organs and survive unfavorable environmental conditions. Within Genlisea, only G. tuberosa, from the Brazilian Cerrado, formed tubers, while Utricularia menziesii is the… read more here.
