Unmanaged forest swamps benefit saproxylic and soil‐inhabiting crane fly communities

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Species richness of both saproxylic and soil‐inhabiting crane flies was consistently higher in unmanaged forests across all habitat types. Soil‐inhabiting species thrived in swamps and ditches, while saproxylic richness was linked to low light and high soil moisture, independent of habitat type.

RNAi reveals a unique set of kinesins mediating chloroplast motility in the giant cytoplasm of Bryopsis (Ulvophyceae), a coenocytic green alga

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful tool for protein knockdown and is widely used in model animals and plants. Here, we implemented RNAi in Bryopsis, a green feather alga that develops a coenocytic thallus >10 cm in length without cytokinesis.

Environmental determinants of bryophyte community change over time

Ecosphere
Environmental factors mediating community change over time have been well documented for vascular plants, but not for their non‐vascular relatives, bryophytes.

Transfer cells in Horneophyton lignieri illuminate the origin of vascular tissues in land plants

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Recent fossil discoveries and advances in plant phylogeny have renewed debate about the most recent common ancestor (MRCA) of land plants and the evolution of its fundamental organs and tissues. We re‐investigate the vascular system of Horneophyton lignieri, an exceptionally preserved Rhynie Chert fossil central to understanding early plant ...

B‐GATA factors are required for nitrogen‐responsive growth in Physcomitrium patens and Arabidopsis thaliana

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary We hypothesized that B‐GATA family transcription factors have important roles in growth regulation in moss. We analyzed B‐GATA family transcription factor mutants from Physcomitrium patens and Arabidopsis thaliana to assess growth, gene expression, and cytokinin‐related processes under varying nitrogen conditions.

A Chemical Probe for Increasing Leaf Tocopherol Levels by Coordinated Modulation of Biosynthesis, Competition and Storage

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant biofortification with phytonutrients typically relies on metabolic engineering strategies known as ‘push’ (enhancing biosynthetic flux), ‘block’ (inhibiting competing pathways) and ‘pull’ (promoting metabolite storage). Here, we describe a novel synthetic compound, X57, that simultaneously targets biosynthesis, competition and storage to

Evolutionary Conserved and Divergent Responses to Copper Zinc Superoxide Dismutase Inhibition in Plants

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT After an initial evolution in a reducing environment, life got successively challenged by reactive oxygen species (ROS), especially during the great oxidation event (GOE) that followed the development of photosynthesis. Therefore, ROS are deeply intertwined into the physiological, morphological and transcriptional responses of most present‐day

Bryophyte diversity, distribution pattern and their environmental drivers in the forest along the vertical gradient of a mature tiankeng, China

Global Ecology and Conservation
Tiankeng, as a distinctive karst landform, maintains exceptional biodiversity and serves as crucial refugia for extant organisms. In this study, we investigated bryophyte distribution patterns along the vertical gradient of Lanjiawan Tiankeng in Guangxi ...
