Four new species of Pic, 1921 are described: (China: Zhejiang, Anhui), (China: Zhejiang), (China: Hainan) and (China: Hainan), which are illustrated with the habitus and aedeagus of the male, the abdominal sternite VIII and the internal genitalia of the female. A key to the species from southeast China is provided.

Unlocking the geography of Azobé timber (Lophira alata): revealing spatial genetic structure beyond species boundaries.
BMC Plant Biol
March 2025
Forest Ecology and Forest Management, Wageningen University and Research, Wageningen, The Netherlands.
Background: The illegal trade of tropical timber constitutes a major and persistent environmental problem. Since the detection of fraud in trade documents remains challenging, forensic tools that can independently trace timber origin are needed. In this study, we evaluated the potential of the chloroplast genome (plastome) as a genetic tool to verify the claimed species and geographic origin of timber from Azobé (Lophira alata), an intensively exploited and threatened tropical tree species.

Indian blackberry (Syzygium cumini L.) also known as jamun is a very important underutilized fruit crop with notable medicinal and economic value. However, its genetic improvement has been constrained by limited knowledge of the genetic diversity within existing collections.

BMC Plant Biol
March 2025
Guizhou Academy of Forestry, Guiyang, Guizhou, 550005, China.
Background: Rhododendron nymphaeoides is explicitly listed as an endangered species in the "the International Union for Conservation of Nature's Red List (IUCN)", "The Red List of Rhododendrons", "Red List of China's Higher Plants" and "Threatened Species List of China's Higher Plants". It is also listed as a provincial-level key protected wild plant in Sichuan, with few individuals in the wild and significant conservation value. The genetic diversity and population structure have never been described, making it difficult to plan conservation strategies for this plant.

State Key Laboratory of Tree Genetics and Breeding, Northeast Forestry University, Harbin, China.
Background: The principal objective of this research is to develop highly specific polymorphic molecular markers, with the aim of addressing the paucity of simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers in Pinus koraiensis. The objective of this initiative is to facilitate the efficient management of genetic resources within Pinus koraiensis, enable precise pedigree identification and establish a foundational framework for subsequent whole-genome sequencing and assembly strategies. To achieve this objective, a simplified genome sequencing approach was employed, utiliZing RAD-Seq technology on a sample of 100 clones of Pinus koraiensis sourced from 6 seed orchards.
