Epiphytism in ferns: diversity and history
As for other vascular plants, numerous adaptive strategies have been selected in epiphytic ferns in order to survive in a constraining and desiccating environment and thus to prevent dehydration and/or to access to water and nutrients. Here we present some of the specializations that allow ferns to survive in this particular habitat.

The pharmacological potential of the methanolic stem extract of Acampe papillosa is evaluated using in vivo and in silico approaches. The extract demonstrates significant anxiolytic, sedative, anti‐inflammatory, and antipyretic activities in experimental models, while molecular docking supports the observed biological effects through favorable ...

Abstract Plant pathogenic bacteria cause massive losses in agriculture and damage to natural plant habitats. Bacterial pathogens not only reduce crop production, but they also reduce crop quality by releasing toxins into the environment. Pathogenic bacteria that invade plant tissues must overcome the plant's defense mechanisms. Plants possess an innate

Abstract Kettle‐holes are small but biogeochemically active landscape elements that integrate terrestrial inputs and influence carbon and nitrogen cycling. However, the stability and sources of organic matter (OM) in kettle‐hole sediments remain poorly understood.

Understanding demographic processes is critical for conserving threatened epiphytes, yet detailed population studies remain rare. We analysed population dynamics in the context of phorophyte structure of the threatened orchid Cattleya quadricolor ...

Epiphytism across a megadiverse pteridoflora
Ferns and lycophytes represent the second largest epiphytic group of vascular plants. Here we examined herbaria collection and literature to provide an account of epiphytes for Peru’s pteridoflora. We assessed compositional differences related to geography, altitudinal distribution, and vegetation type, along with observations on endemism and ...

Multi‐stressor experiments on three coral species demonstrate hypoxia produces mostly additive effects with acidification but synergistically amplifies physiological stress under elevated temperatures. As global and local environmental change increase compound stress events on coral reefs, distinguishing hypoxia‐driven effects and interactive stressor ...

Under ocean acidification, turf algae are favored over corals, shifting the competition outcome and decreasing coral survival. The local pH microenvironment under the turf, resulting from associated biological activity, drives the dissolution of the coral carbonate skeleton.
