Thanks for updating! This is a very good issue of xerophilia.
"Over-fertilization, a determining factor in the dynamics of aberrant growth and flowering in Cactaceae" i found this article very interesting!

I look forward to every edition and I've read them all at least twice.
By far my favourite journal, so well put together.

Thankyou to the team and every one who makes this great publication available.
