Trophic Diversity in Duckweed: Mixotrophy, More Than the Sum of its Extremes [PDF]
Advanced ScienceThe duckweed family Lemnaceae, aquatic plants within the early‐diverging monocot order Alismatales, are model organisms in plant biology. Owing to their exceptionally rapid growth rates, high protein content, notable capacity for starch accumulation, and

The plastid genome of Najas flexilis: adaptation to submersed environments is accompanied by the complete loss of the NDH complex in an aquatic angiosperm. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The re-colonization of aquatic habitats by angiosperms has presented a difficult challenge to plants whose long evolutionary history primarily reflects adaptations to terrestrial conditions. Many aquatics must complete vital stages of their life cycle on

Applying Target Capture Sequencing to Unravel the Anthurium Section Pachyneurium (Araceae), with Emphasis on Brazilian Species [PDF]
PlantsAnthurium (Araceae) is one of the most species-rich Neotropical genera, yet its infrageneric classification remains unresolved. This study tests the monophyly of the morphologically defined Anthurium sect.

Multi-Omics Unveils the Dual-Life of the Aquatic Plant Potamogeton nodosus. [PDF]
Physiol PlantABSTRACT Heterophylly, characterized by distinct leaf morphologies, is an adaptive strategy evolved by some aquatic plants to cope with the contrasting environments in which they grow. It is shaped by environmental factors and by hormones, particularly abscisic and gibberellic acids.

Duckweeds: Model organisms for research on plant sterols and steroids. [PDF]
Plant Biol (Stuttg)Duckweeds (Lemnaceae), the fastest‐growing angiosperms and promising vegan protein source, offer a powerful model to address key questions in plant physiology. This article highlights their potential for dissecting the biosynthesis and function of phytosterols, sterol conjugates, brassinosteroids, and specialized steroidal metabolites, such as ...

Comparative Plastid Genome and Phylogenomic Analyses of Potamogeton Species. [PDF]
Genes (Basel), 2023 Potamogetonaceae are aquatic plants divided into six genera. The largest genus in the family is Potamogeton, which is morphologically diverse with many hybrids and polyploids. Potamogetonaceae plastomes were conserved in genome size (155,863 bp–156,
