Quang Truc forest (QTF) is a remote area in the South-West of Dak Nong province, Vietnam, which is well known for valuable timber species representative for central highland of Vietnam with different globally and nationally threatened species. However, the general understanding of plant diversity of QTF has been still poorly known. The objectives of this paper are to figure out the plant diversity of QTF and compare that with other protected forest areas in Dak Nong province, in order to provide scientific evidences for conservation and sustainable development.

Ebook "Endemism in vascular plants (Plant and vegetation, Volume 9)" is the first comprehensive analysis of the macroecology and geobotany of endemic vascular plants with case-studies and analyses from different regions in the world. Endemism is a pre-extinction phenomenon. Endemics are threatened with extinction. Due to international nature conservation policies and due to the perception of the public the concept’s importance is increasing. Endemism can result from different biological and environmental processes.

In ebook "Plant-environment interactions: From sensory plant biology to active plant behavior" documents a paradigm shift that is currently underway in the plant sciences. In the last two or three decades, plants have been unmasked as being very sensitive organisms that monitor and integrate large numbers of abiotic and biotic parameters from their environment. The obvious conservation that occurs throughout evolution means that action potentials provide both plants and animals with evolutionary advantages that are crucial to their adaptive behavior and survival.
