Lianas are distributed as ornamental, perennial plants that are widely used in landscaping and popular all over the world. However, in recent times, ornamental lianas have also been used for vertical landscaping in re...

Few botanical studies have explored the potential of nuclear ribosomal DNA (nrDNA) and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) data obtained through genome skimming for phylogeny reconstruction. Here, we analyzed the phylogenetic i...
Successive cambia in Vitaceae have been reported solely for Tetrastigma, a diverse genus of lianas found primarily in tropical Asia, extending into Australia. However, the structure and origin of these successive camb...
Plant species distributions show patterns along elevation gradients. Regardless of the diverse Afromontane vegetation in Ethiopia (AFE), studies of elevation patterns of woody plants are limited and they are restricte...

Lianas are a principal physiognomic component of tropical and subtropical forests and are typically considered to be parasites of trees. In contrast, the substantial contribution of lianas to rainforest leaf litter pr...
Gnetupendin C, a new dimer coupled by a resveratrol and an oxyresveratrol unit, was isolated from the lianas of Gnetum pendulum C.Y. Cheng (Gnetaceae). Its structure was established on the basis of spectroscopic evide...
Gnetuhainin P, a new isorhapontigenin dimer, was isolated from the Lianas of Gnetum hainanense C. Y. Cheng. Its structure was established on the basis of spectroscopic evidence, especially 2D NMR techniques.
Two new dimeric stilbenes, named gnetifolin L and gnetifolin O, were isolated from the alcoholic extract of lianas of Gnetum montanum. Their structures were elucidated mainly on the basis of spectroscopic data includi...
