The creek sandpaper fig of southeastern Australia, Ficus coronata Spin, is culturally
significant to Australian traditional owners who made use of the leaves to smooth timber and …

The chance discovery of an unusual Ficus specimen near Katherine in the Northern Territory
prompted an investigation into hybridisation between two morphologically distinct endemic …

• Premise of the study: We developed a set of microsatellite markers for broad utility across
the speciesrich pantropical tree genus Ficus (fig trees). The markers were developed to …

A study was conducted to identify genotypes present in a Moroccan fig germplasm collection
and provide the first database for a reference collection in northern Morocco. In total, 75 fig …

Molecular characterisation of Moroccan fig germplasm mainly originated from northern
areas showed that cultivars are highly local. The few widespread denominations correspond …

• Premise of the study: The genus Ficus (fig trees) comprises ca. 750 species of trees, vines,

A new species of lithophytic fig, Ficus desertorum BC Wilde & RL Barrett, endemic to arid
Central Australia, is described and illustrated. It is distinguished from other species in Ficus …

To test the hypothesis of local fig selection in Morocco, we studied the genetic structure of
germplasm originating from the main eco-geographical areas of fig cultivation. Based on 14 …
