Beyond Structure: The Role of the Outer Integument in Embryo, Endosperm, and Seed Development in Annona. [PDF]
Physiol PlantABSTRACT In most angiosperms, the embryo develops within maternal tissues and is enclosed by two integuments, which play a crucial role in embryo and seed development. However, while this role has been extensively studied in model eudicots like Arabidopsis thaliana, it remains understudied in non‐model plants and largely unexplored in basal and early ...

A new, simple, highly scalable, and efficient protocol for genomic DNA extraction from diverse plant taxa. [PDF]
Appl Plant Sci, 2021 Premise Commonly used molecular techniques such as next‐generation sequencing require reliable methods to extract DNA quickly and efficiently. Secondary compounds within plant tissues make this requirement all the more challenging, often forcing researchers to test different extraction methods tailored to their particular species of interest in order ...

Macroevolutionary dynamics in the transition of angiosperms to aquatic environments. [PDF]
New Phytol, 2022 Summary Angiosperm lineages in aquatic environments are characterized by high structural and functional diversity, and wide distributions. A long‐standing evolutionary riddle is what processes have caused the relatively low diversity of aquatic angiosperms compared to their terrestrial relatives.

Biological Reviews, Volume 97, Issue 4, Page 1677-1690, August 2022., 2022 ABSTRACT Macrophytes are an important part of freshwater ecosystems and they have direct and indirect roles in keeping the water clear and providing structure and habitats for other aquatic organisms. Currently, climate change is posing a major threat to macrophyte communities by altering the many drivers that determine macrophyte abundance and ...

Environmental DNA, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 830-845, July 2022., 2022 The reconstruction of the historical shoreline vegetation across multiple basins of Lower Lake Constance using sedDNA, reveals the irreversible trajectory of the plant communities in relation to extensive anthropogenic pressures in the region. Abstract Many European lake ecosystems, including their respective catchment areas, underwent anthropogenic ...

The Angiosperm Terrestrial Revolution and the origins of modern biodiversity
New Phytologist, Volume 233, Issue 5, Page 2017-2035, March 2022., 2022 Summary Biodiversity today has the unusual property that 85% of plant and animal species live on land rather than in the sea, and half of these live in tropical rainforests. An explosive boost to terrestrial diversity occurred from c. 100–50 million years ago, the Late Cretaceous and early Palaeogene. During this interval, the Earth‐life system on land

Examining the utility of DNA barcodes for the identification of tallgrass prairie flora
Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 9, Issue 1, January 2021., 2021 Premise The tallgrass prairies of North America are one of the most threatened ecosystems in the world, making efficient species identification essential for understanding and managing diversity. Here, we assess DNA barcoding with high‐throughput sequencing as a method for rapid plant species identification.
