Transcriptome-Based Study on the Phylogeny and Hybridization of Marattialean Ferns (Marattiaceae) [PDF]
Marattiaceae is a phylogenetically isolated family of tropical eusporangiate ferns including six genera with more than one-hundred species. In Marattiaceae, monophyly of genera has been well-supported phylogenetically.

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.

Anatomical and Biochemical Traits Related to Blue Leaf Coloration of Selaginella uncinata [PDF]
Selaginella uncinata shows particularly rare blue leaves. Previous research has shown that structural interference by the cell wall of adaxial epidermal cells imparts blue coloration in leaves of S. uncinata; the objective of this study was to see whether anthocyanins might additionally contribute to this color, as changes in pH, and conjugation with ...

Abstract Tropical forest understory regeneration occurs rapidly after disturbance with compositional trajectories that depend on species availability and environmental conditions. To predict future tropical forest regeneration dynamics, we need a deeper understanding of how pulse disturbance events, like hurricanes, interact with environmental ...

Abstract Accurate and reliable biodiversity estimates of marine zooplankton are a prerequisite to understand how changes in diversity can affect whole ecosystems. Species identification in the deep sea is significantly impeded by high numbers of new species and decreasing numbers of taxonomic experts, hampering any assessment of biodiversity.

Exploring the phylogeny of the marattialean ferns
Abstract The eusporangiate marattialean ferns represent an ancient radiation with a rich fossil record but limited modern diversity in the tropics. The long evolutionary history without close extant relatives has confounded studies of the phylogenetic origin, rooting and timing of marattialean ferns.

Nanostructural Colouration in Malaysian Plants: Lessons for Biomimetics and Biomaterials
Plant tissues include leaves, flower petals, and fruits. These can provide us with variety of design inspirations. Biomimetics allows us to learn from nature and transfer the knowledge we gain from studying sophisticated and amazing biological structures, materials and processes to engineering and the arts. The microstructures of morphology and anatomy
