Ecology of bryophytes along altitudinal and latitudinal gradients in Chile [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The bryophyte vegetation in twenty-eight hectare plots in forests of S-Chile between 38° and 42°S and sea level and the forest line has been studied. Since bryophytes are fully dependend on atmospheric water and nutrient supply, they are good indicators ...

Water extract of Cryphaea heteromalla (Hedw.) D. Mohr bryophyte as a natural powerful source of biologically active compounds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
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%

Harnessing S. cerevisiae to advance the engineering of pentatricopeptide repeat proteins

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Heterologous expression systems have been instrumental in furthering our understanding of plant RNA editing proteins. In this commentary, we discuss how the establishment of yeast as a model for studying plant RNA editing by Ramanathan et al. could advance the engineering of pentatricopeptide repeat proteins, and how in return pentatricopeptide repeat ...

Threatened bryophytes of the neotropical rain forest : a status report [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Tropical deforestation, inevitably, leads to the local loss of bryophyte species. Recent studies show that the degree of species loss may vary considerably and depends on the scale or amount of habitat change that has occurred.

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

open access: yesPlant 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

Bryophytes from some Caatinga areas in the state of Bahia (Brazil) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The caatinga is a deciduous and xerophilous vegetation that covers large areas in Brazil. An irregular rainfall with a marked dry period is a characteristic feature.

The BAHD Acyltransferase Gene Family: Evolutionary Dynamics, Biochemical Mechanisms, and Roles in Plant Stress Adaptation

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
BAHD acyltransferases drive metabolic diversification in plants by coupling conserved catalytic scaffolds with regulatory flexibility, enabling stress adaptation and ecological specialisation. ABSTRACT BAHD acyltransferases constitute one of the most versatile enzyme superfamilies in plants, catalysing the acylation of alcohols, amines, polyamines, and

Tropical component of the moss Flora of China [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
In many ways, it is presumptuous for me to speak on the mosses of the tropical regions of China. Many consider the knowledge about the taxonomy, ecology, and geography of tropical bryophytes inadequate (Pócs 1982; Schuster 1983; Richards 1984), and this ...

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

open access: yesPlant, 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

The complete chloroplast genome of an Antarctic moss Syntrichia filaris (Müll.Hal.) R.H. Zander

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
Syntrichia filaris is one of the common mosses in the northern maritime Antarctic. In this study, we determined the complete chloroplast genome of S.
