The Franks Model CO2 Proxy: Do Assimilation Rate Values or Isotopic Corrections Optimize CO2 Reconstruction Accuracy?

open access: yesPaleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Paleo‐CO2 proxies are crucial for reconstructing past atmospheric CO2 variations and understanding their impact on Earth's climate, especially in light of anthropogenic climate change. The mechanistic leaf gas exchange model of Franks et al.

Diversity, Phylogeny and Antagonistic Activity of Fungal Endophytes Associated with Endemic Species of Cycas (Cycadales) in China

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2021
The culture-based approach was used to characterize the fungal endophytes associated with the coralloid roots of the endemic Cycas debaoensis and Cycas fairylakea from various population sites in China.

Integrative phylogenomics and morphology reveal the evolution and biogeography of Encephalartos (Zamiaceae)

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 64, Issue 2, Page 295-312, March 2026.
We aimed to conduct phylogenetic analyses of Encephalartos, a cycad genus endemic to Africa, using 3545 single‐copy nuclear genes extracted from transcriptome data, covering 64/65 of the recognized species, along with inference of divergence times using two secondary calibration points.

The first occurrence of Phlebopteris dunkeri and P. woodwardii (Matoniaceae) from the middle Jurassic of Iran

open access: yesJournal of Palaeogeography, 2019
The coal horizons of the Middle Jurassic Hojedk Formation of East-Central Iran are fossiliferous, bearing numerous well-preserved fossil plants, comparable to the Shemshak Group/Formation in the Alborz Mountains in Northern Iran.

Missouri Botanical Garden's cycad collection: A journey through time

open access: yesPlant Species Biology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 607-624, November 2025.
This article summarizes the history of the Missouri Botanical Garden's extensive cycad collection. Some of the specimens currently housed in the living collections date back well over 100 years. Cycads continue to face a myriad of threats in the wild, and their conservation in ex situ collections is of critical importance to assist in their survival ...

Perspectives on Endosymbiosis in Coralloid Roots: Association of Cycads and Cyanobacteria

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Past endosymbiotic events allowed photosynthetic organisms to flourish and evolve in terrestrial areas. The precursor of chloroplasts was an ancient photosynthetic cyanobacterium.

Does Phytogeography Change with Shifts in Geopolitics? The Curious Case of Cycads in the United States

open access: yesDiversity, 2020
The United States is currently home to five native cycad species. We provide a discussion on these five cycad species to illuminate how evolutionary and geopolitical processes influence phytogeography and published checklists of threatened plants.

Integrative taxonomy of the Ceratozamia mexicana Brongn. (Zamiaceae) species complex from a phylogeographic perspective

open access: yesPlant Species Biology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 530-546, November 2025.
Recent research has ignited a renewed interest in Ceratozamia cycads, unveiling their remarkable diversity. While previous studies primarily focused on morphology, this investigation employs a multidisciplinary approach, integrating phylogenetics, morphology, and ecological niches. Our methods identify seven distinct lineages as separate species.
