Dicliptera polymorpha: New Fire-Resilient Plant Species Discovered
Scientists from Agharkar Research Institute discovered Dicliptera polymorpha, a fire-resilient plant species in the Western Ghats. This unique grassland plant exhibits a dual-blooming pattern triggered by fire and adapts to extreme conditions. Its discovery highlights the region’s biodiversity and the ecological importance of grassland management. The species’ resilience underscores the need for balanced fire management practices and targeted conservation strategies to preserve such endemic flora. Research and ecological protection are vital for maintaining biodiversity in these hotspots.
