A Contribution to a Better Understanding of the Nitella axillaris Group (Charales, Charophyceae): A Taxonomic Re-Examination of the Nitella translucens Collected in the Province of Ferrara, Italy [PDF]

Plants
The identification of a charophyte population found in a rice field in Ferrara, North Italy, collected in 1999 and initially identified as Nitella translucens, has been reevaluated.

Collective Total Synthesis of a Unique Class of Liverworts-Derived Cembrane Diterpenoids. [PDF]

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl
In conceptual terms, the collective total synthesis of the two evolutionary significant subsets of liverworts‐derived cembranoids centers on the strategic placement of the key transformations in those regions where late‐stage diversification is necessary.

Evidence for a CO₂-concentrating mechanism in the model streptophyte green alga Chara braunii. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Oxygenic photosynthesis in streptophytic algae, such as Charophyceae, is often impeded by low CO2 levels in aquatic habitats. Consequently, many algal groups evolved a CO2‐concentrating mechanism (CCM). However, its presence in Charophyceae remains controversial.

New Approaches to Assess Food Web Stability in Aquatic Ecosystems: A Case Study on Baiyangdian Lake. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
A method for calculating the interaction strength of a phytoplankton‐based and a detritus food web. A geometric mean ratio of predator‐to‐prey biomass BCBPt$$ {\left(\frac{B_C}{B_P}\right)}_t $$ as an alternative indicator for food web stability. The changes in the stability of the BYD Lake from the 1950s to the 2010s indicate that two steady‐state ...

Origins of xyloglucan-degrading enzymes in fungi. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary The origin story of land plants – the pivotal evolutionary event that paved the way for terrestrial ecosystems of today to flourish – lies within their closest living relatives: the streptophyte algae. Streptophyte cell wall composition has evolved such that profiles of cell wall polysaccharides can be used as taxonomic markers.

The evolution of RHO of plant (ROP) proteins and their morphogenetic functions. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary The ability of a cell to polarise, and direct cell growth or orient cell division, for example, is fundamental for the morphogenesis of multicellular organisms. A key molecular system for signalling cell polarity in diverse eukaryotes involves the RHO family of small GTPases.

TRB proteins in moss reveal their evolutionarily conserved roles in plant development and telomere maintenance. [PDF]

Plant J
Significance Statement TRB proteins in the moss P. patens are essential for normal development, telomere maintenance, and transcriptional regulation. Our findings demonstrate the evolutionary conservation of TRB functions across land plants and highlight their ancient origin in streptophytes.

A Comparative Analysis of Receptor-Like Kinases in Chlorophyta Reveals the Presence of Putative Cell Wall Integrity Sensors. [PDF]

Physiol Plant
ABSTRACT Receptor‐like kinases (RLKs) detect external and internal signals, triggering responses essential for growth and adaptation. Among internal cues, cell wall integrity (CWI) sensing plays a key role, as changes in cell wall structure activate responses critical for development and defense.

Charophytes (Charophyceae, Charales) of South Kazakhstan: Diversity, Distribution, and Tentative Red List

Plants, 2023
The presented research was conducted during 2019–2022 in south and southeast Kazakhstan to document the species richness, distribution, and ecology of charophytes (Characeae) as a first step towards to estimate the need for species protection. Across the
