Is There Life After Death? The Role of Standing Dead Phorophytes in Supporting Tropical Epiphyte Diversity

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Global increases in tree mortality from climate change and land‐use are altering forest structures, impacting canopy‐dwelling plants like vascular epiphytes, which depend on host trees (phorophytes). When a phorophyte dies standing, it becomes a snag, the local substrate conditions change and microclimatic exposure may increase, particularly ...

Fern spore dispersal: A methodological review and experimental field study

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, Volume 14, Issue 1, January-February 2026.
Abstract Spore dispersal is one of the most important but perhaps the least investigated and understood processes in determining the geographical distribution of fern species. After a methodological review of the aerobiology of fern spores, we examined the impact of spore characteristics and meteorological factors on their airborne dispersal.

Evolution of Repetitive Genomic Content and Gene Families Over Geo‐Climatic Gradients in Brassicaceae

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
Along temperature gradients such as elevation and latitude, species typically occupy distinct ranges, and life at the extremes may come with adaptive and non‐adaptive genomic changes. In the Brassicaceae family, comparative genomics revealed that geo‐climatic factors strongly predict genome size and transposable element (TE) content, explaining up to ...

Climatic triggers of the phenophases of Elaphoglossum macrophyllum in Southern Brazil

open access: yesRodriguésia, 2023
Although ferns have a prominent floristic position with their richness center in Atlantic Forest in Brazil, the effect of climate on their phenophases is still poorly known.

Water availability and evolutionary similarity shape the global distribution of ferns with chlorophyllous spores

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2025, Issue 11, November 2025.
About 14% of all fern species have chlorophyllous spores, which lack dormancy, have thin walls, and have a shorter viability (only a few days in some species). These spores should have limited dispersal distances and be more susceptible to harsher climatic conditions, raising questions about the evolutionary and ecological significance of this trait ...
