Cycads represent an example of the success of evolutionary stasis. Despite its conservative nature, the cycad genus Dioon has been able to diversify due to phylogenetic, stochastic, and environmental factors associated with the biogeography of Mexico. Abstract Cycads represent an example of the success of evolutionary stasis. Despite their early origin,

Thirty-three species of Encephalartos, which include all the known species indigenous to the Republic of South Africa, together with Stangeria eriopus, were found to form coralloid roots. In all cases, specimens were found in which the coralloid roots were infected with Cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) and these roots in all cases reduced acetylene to ...

Forty-one isolates of the cyanobionts in the coralloid roots of 31 cycad species, which include all the species indigenous to the Republic of South Africa, were identified. One isolate (from Encephalartos hildebrandtii) appears to be a species of Calothrix. All the other isolates were identified as species of Nostoc. Twenty-eight isolates were assigned
