Lords of the biosphere: Plant winners and losers in the Anthropocene

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 350-366, July 2022., 2022
The impact of humans on Earth's biodiversity varies across the Tree of Life. The extirpation and extinction of species is often determined by compatibility with human activities. Here we classify, where data are available, a significant portion (~30%) of vascular plant species as winners or losers with respect to this compatibility and show that ...

Loss of the IR region in conifer plastomes: Changes in the selection pressure and substitution rate of protein‐coding genes

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2022., 2022
There are significant differences in the selection pressure of 12 genes and the evolution rate of 9 genes between conifer and non‐conifer. This difference seems to be not related to the loss of typical IR regions but related to habitat. And the newly obtained short IR region plays a role in stabilizing the genome.

The dynamic history of gymnosperm plastomes: Insights from structural characterization, comparative analysis, phylogenomics, and time divergence

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 14, Issue 3, November 2021., 2021
Abstract Gymnosperms are among the most endangered groups of plant species; they include ginkgo, pines (Conifers I), cupressophytes (Conifers II), cycads, and gnetophytes. The relationships among the five extant gymnosperm groups remain equivocal. We analyzed 167 available gymnosperm plastomes and investigated their diversity and phylogeny.

Discovery of Cyanobacteria Associated with Cycads and Description of Three Novel Species in Desmonostoc (Nostocaceae)

open access: yesDiversity, 2023
Heterocyte-forming cyanobacteria form symbiotic relationships with several lineages of plants. Here, twenty (20) strains of endosymbiotic cyanobacteria (cyanobionts) with Nostoc-like morphologies were isolated from the highly specialized coralloid roots ...
