The secreted redox sensor roGFP2‐Orp1 reveals oxidative dynamics in the plant apoplast
Using the secreted redox biosensor roGFP2‐Orp1, we reveal differences in extracellular (apoplastic) oxidative processes between and within species, depending on cell type and immune signalling. Abstract Specific generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is important for signalling and defence in many organisms. In plants, different types of ROS serve

The tasiR‐ARF pathway in plants: origin, functions, and interplay of miR‐390, tasiRNAs and ARF3
Trans‐acting small interfering RNAs that silence a subset of Auxin Response Factors are crucial for plant growth, developmental timing, proper organ patterning, and coping with stress. Abstract Trans‐acting small interfering RNA (tasiRNAs) are a special type of endogenous small RNAs (sRNAs) found only in plants.

The influence of tree age and microhabitat quality on the occurrence of crustose lichens associated with old oaks [PDF]
Questions: How do tree age, microhabitat characteristics and epiphytic competitors affect the occurrence of crustose lichens associated with old oaks? How do microhabitat characteristics and microclimate affect the cover of competitors (bryophytes and ...

Leaf size in mosses is structurally constrained by cell dimensions and genome size
Cell size and midribs are the main mechanical determinants of moss leaf size, which itself depends on growth form and genome size; together, these relationships underpin key aspects of moss ecology and performance. Abstract Leaf anatomy is a key factor determining plant ecology.

Water extract of Cryphaea heteromalla (Hedw.) D. Mohr bryophyte as a natural powerful source of biologically active compounds [PDF]
Bryophytes comprise of the mosses, liverworts, and hornworts. Cryphaea heteromalla, (Hedw.) D. Mohr, is a non-vascular lower plant belonging to mosses group. To the date, the most chemically characterized species belong to the liverworts, while only 3.2%

Biodiversity and its restoration in limestone quarries: a review
Abstract Introduction Limestone quarries impact natural areas, and they are spreading in relation to human population growth. Little is known about the impact of limestone quarries and their restoration on biodiversity. Objectives This review aims to provide an overview of how biodiversity is assessed in limestone quarries, how it impacts biodiversity,
