Effects of native bryophytes on exotic grass invasion across an environmental gradient

open access: yesEcosphere, 2019
Understanding the role of native biodiversity in controlling exotic species invasion is a critical goal in ecology. In terrestrial plant communities, most research has focused on the effects of native vascular plants on invasion by exotic vascular plants.

Scientific results of the Bryotrop expedition to Zaire and Rwanda : 3., photosynthetic gas exchange of bryophytes from different forest types in eastern Central Africa. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
During the BRYOTROP-Expedition to Zaire and Rwanda bryophytes were collected from a rainforest habitat at 800 m a.s.l. and from bamboo forest and tree-heath environments between 2200 and 3200 m.

Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

The Evolution of Flavonoid Biosynthesis: A Bryophyte Perspective

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
The flavonoid pathway is one of the best characterized specialized metabolite pathways of plants. In angiosperms, the flavonoids have varied roles in assisting with tolerance to abiotic stress and are also key for signaling to pollinators and seed ...

Manual of tropical bryology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Bryophytes belong to the oldest land plants. They existed already in the Palaeozoic 300 mio years ago in forms which were hardly different from the extant species. They remained relatively unchanged with relatively low evolution rates (and are thus often

Diterpenoid Diversity across Land Plants

open access: yesHelvetica Chimica Acta, EarlyView.
Here we bridge the knowledge of diterpene chemical diversity, biosynthesis, and evolution from nonvascular mosses and liverworts to that known from vascular plants. ABSTRACT The diverse array of diterpenoid natural products stems from the ease of manipulating the promiscuity of diterpene cyclases.

Epigeic bryophytes of Bryansk parks and prospects for their use in landscape architecture [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
Studies of epigeal bryophytes growing on the territory of public facilities in Bryansk have been carried out and the prospects of using mossy ones for the landscape organization of an urbanized environment have been considered. The studies were conducted

100 years of tropical bryophyte and lichen ecology : a bibliographic guide to the literature from 1901 - 2000 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A list of 401 citations pertaining to the ecology of tropical bryophytes and lichens is presented. The bibliography includes publications addressing the biology, ecology, natural history, and physiology of bryophytes and lichens, but generally eschews ...

Pinguicula brendae (Lentibulariaceae) sp. nov., a carnivorous plant from a tropical montane cloud forest in Hidalgo, Mexico

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
A new species of Lentibulariaceae, Pinguicula brendae Rodríguez‐Ramírez, H.Shimai & A.R. Andrés‐Hernández, is described based on its unique morphological characteristics. This species is restricted to limestone rock walls in the San Bartolo Tutotepec municipality, central‐eastern Hidalgo, Mexico, where it inhabits a single locality on vertical, north ...
