Situated in the southern end of the Annamite Mountain Range, Langbiang Plateau is a major biodiversity hotspot of southern Vietnam known for high species diversity and endemicity. To achieve effective conservation, parts of the plateau were designated as the Langbiang Biosphere Reserve, an UNESCO World Network aiming to improve relationships betwee...
‘Breadfruit’ is a common tree species in Taiwan. In the indigenous Austronesian Amis culture of eastern Taiwan, ‘breadfruit’ is known as Pacilo, and its fruits are consumed as food. On Lanyu (Botel Tobago) where the indigenous Yami people live, ‘breadfruit’ is called Cipoho and used for constructing houses and plank-boats. Elsewhere in Taiwan, ‘bre...
Petrocodon and Primulina are two characteristic genera of Gesneriaceae that exhibit remarkable species and floral diversity, and high endemism across the Sino-Vietnamese Limestone Karsts. To better understand the evolution of limestone gesneriad plastomes, we report nine complete plastomes of seven Primulina and two Petrocodon which have never been...

The ecology and genetic diversity of model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae prior to human domestication remain poorly understood. Taiwan is regarded as part of this yeast's geographic birthplace where the most divergent natural lineage was discovered. Here, we extensively sampled the broad-leaf forests across this continental island to probe the anc...
Species of Broussonetia have been essential in the development of papermaking technology. In Japan and Korea, a hybrid between B. monoica and B. papyrifera (= B. × kazinoki) known as kōzo and daknamu is still the major source of raw materials for making traditional paper washi and hanji, respectively. Despite their cultural and practical significan...
The early-diverging eudicot family Berberidaceae is composed of a morphologically diverse assemblage of disjunctly distributed genera long praised for their great horticultural and medicinal values. However, despite century-long studies, generic delimitation of Berberidaceae remains controversial and its tribal classification has never been formall...
The ecology and genetic diversity of model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae prior to human domestication remain poorly understood. Taiwan is regarded as part of this yeast's geographic birthplace where the most divergent natural lineage was discovered. Here, we deep sampled the broad-leaf forests across this continental island to probe the ancestral...
Lecanorchis flavicans Fukuy. var. acutiloba T. Hashim. (Orchidaceae) is reported as a newly recorded species in Taiwan. It is most similar to L. triloba J. J. Sm. but can be distinguished by its 3–5-flowered inflorescences, longer tepals and lip without a pair of calli on the disc. In this study, we provide a description, illustration and distribut...
