Reticulate evolution in the Pteris fauriei group (Pteridaceae) [PDF]
The Pteris fauriei group (Pteridaceae) has a wide distribution in Eastern Asia and includes 18 species with similar but varied morphology. We collected more than 300 specimens of the P.

Sexual and Apogamous Species of Woodferns Show Different Protein and Phytohormone Profiles [PDF]
The gametophyte of ferns reproduces either by sexual or asexual means. In the latter, apogamy represents a peculiar case of apomixis, in which an embryo is formed from somatic cells.

Comparative transcriptome analysis of two reproductive modes in Adiantum reniforme var. sinense targeted to explore possible mechanism of apogamy [PDF]
Background Apogamy is a unique asexual reproduction in the ferns, in which somatic cells of gametophytes go through dedifferentiation and then differentiate into haploid sporophytes bypassing fertilization.

The Remarkable Increase in the Invasive Autumn Fern, Dryopteris erythrosora, One of the World’s Most Marketed Ferns, in Eastern North America [PDF]
Autumn fern, Dryopteris erythrosora, is the most marketed temperate fern in the world. The rapid increase and spread of this recently naturalized fern in North America was determined and mapped using 76 herbarium specimen records and 2553 Research Grade ...

Comprehensive in silico characterization of proteins associated with light responses, transport, and stress-related processes in the gametophyte of the fern Dryopteris affinis ssp. affinis [PDF]
Background Fern gametophytes represent a key phase in the fern life cycle and play an essential role in establishment and persistence. Despite their ecological and developmental relevance, the molecular basis of gametophyte function remains poorly ...

In vitro culture and apogamy: Alternative pathway in the life cycle of the moss Amblystegium serpens (Amblystegiaceae) [PDF]
In vitro culture of the moss Amblystegium serpens (Amblystegiaceae) was established on hormone-free Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium that contained a half amount of MS micro- and macro- mineral salts and vitamins, 100 mg/l myoinositol, 30 g/l sucrose, and

RESEARCHES CONCERNING THE IN VITRO DIFFERENTIATION OF THE FERN PHEGOPTERIS CONNECTILIS (MICHX.) WATT
Phegopteris connectilis is an apogamous species, endangered in certain regions. The ex situ conservation, through the in vitro production of the gametophyte, as well as the embryos and the plants, followed by their cryo-stocking, is necessary for ...

In Vitro Development of Gametophyte and Sporophyte in Several Fern Species
The in vitro differentiation of the gametophyte and sporophyte of Pteridophyta, conducted through the culture, on nutritive media, of the green, incompletely differentiated sporangia and spores, exhibits a variety of peculiarities. Whereas in the case of

Differences in Epiphytic Microbial Community Structure Between Sporophytes of Saccharina japonica Derived from Sexual Reproduction and Apomixes [PDF]
Saccharina japonica, the most extensively farmed seaweed globally, is of great ecological and economic importance. Its applications extend far beyond food consumption, as it is widely utilized in industrial production, biofeed, and medical products ...
