Beggar-ticks
Bidens frondosa
Bidens frondosa is a plant traditionally unrecorded in specific medicinal practices. However, it has been observed that Bidens pilosa var. radiata attracts more pollinators due to higher levels of certain volatile compounds compared to B. frondosa. Scientific evidence indicates that under future climate conditions, the suitable habitat ranges for Bidens species generally expanded, and phylogenomic studies showed a close relationship between B. frondosa and Coreopsis lanceolata. In ecological contexts, priority effects favored the invasive B. frondosa over the native B. biternata, with nitrogen addition having a more significant inhibitory effect on its growth. No major safety concerns or known drug interactions have been recorded for Bidens frondosa.

Lo que dice la ciencia
- El arribo temprano benefició más a Bidens frondosa que a Bidens biternata, mientras que el arribo tardío inhibió más a Bidens frondosa, con la adición de nitrógeno alterando estos efectos.
- El estudio mostró que bajo las futuras condiciones climáticas, el rango de hábitat adecuado para seis especies de Bidens aumentó generalmente.
- The study found that Bidens pilosa var. radiata attracts more pollinators, including A. cerana, than the more self-compatible B. frondosa, with higher levels of (E)- and (Z)-β-Ocimene in its floral volatiles.
- Se secuencia el genoma completo de los cloroplastos de Coreopsis lanceolata, lo que muestra que forma un cladofilo monofilético con Bidens frondosa en el análisis filogenómico.
