A linear sequence of extant families and genera of lycophytes and ferns [PDF]
Throughout the history of the classification of extant ferns (monilophytes) and lycophytes, familial and generic concepts have been in great flux. For the organisation of lycophytes and ferns in herbaria, books, checklists, indices and spore banks and on

Insights into the evolutionary history and widespread occurrence of antheridiogen systems in ferns. [PDF]
Summary Sex expression of homosporous ferns is controlled by multiple factors, one being the antheridiogen system. Antheridiogens are pheromones released by sexually mature female fern gametophytes, turning nearby asexual gametophytes precociously male. Nevertheless, not all species respond. It is still unknown how many fern species use antheridiogens,

Edaphic heterogeneity and the evolutionary trajectory of Amazonian plant communities. [PDF]
We investigated the phylogenetic structure of Amazonian fern and palm communities on edaphically distinct sites. We show that phylogenetic community structure varies along a soil base cation concentration gradient within non‐inundated Amazonian rain forests.

Biogeographical patterns of species richness, range size and phylogenetic diversity of ferns along elevational-latitudinal gradients in the tropics and its transition zone [PDF]
Although elevational-latitudinal patterns of plant and animal diversity have been studied for centuries, factors driving the observed patterns are still controversially discussed.
