The long road to bloom in conifers [PDF]
More than 600 species of conifers (phylum Pinophyta) serve as the backbone of the Earth’s terrestrial plant community and play key roles in global carbon and water cycles. Although coniferous forests account for a large fraction of global wood production,

Convergent adaptation to climate in conifers
Instances of convergent evolution can shed light on the evolutionary constraints shaping adaptation. Conifers are an excellent model to test hypotheses related to convergent evolution because they exhibit pronounced adaptation to local environments.

Effects of climate change on richness distribution patterns of threatened conifers endemic to China
Climate change inevitably affects the geographical distribution of species on earth. Conifers, which are important components of forest tree species, are highly threatened and particularly sensitive to climate change. Approximately 23.6% (145/615 species)

Somatic Embryogenesis in Conifers: One Clade to Rule Them All?
Somatic embryogenesis (SE) in conifers is usually characterized as a multi-step process starting with the development of proembryogenic cell masses and followed by histodifferentiation, somatic embryo development, maturation, desiccation, and plant ...
