Biomonitoring of atmospheric mercury levels with the epiphytic fern Lepisorus thunbergianus (Polypodiaceae)

Chemosphere, 2009
The suitability of the epiphytic fern Lepisorus thunbergianus (Kaulf.) Ching, common in East and Southeast Asia, for the in situ biomonitoring of atmospheric mercury levels was investigated. L. thunbergianus is an evergreen fern with young, mature and old fronds throughout the year.

Degrees of crassulacean acid metabolism in tropical epiphytic and lithophytic ferns

Australian Journal of Plant Physiology, 1999
Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) was observed in three species of tropical ferns, the epiphytes Microsorium punctatum and Polypodium crassifolium and the lithophyte Platycerium veitchii . Polypodium crassifolium and P. veitchii exhibited characteristics of weak CAM.

Adaptation of a widespread epiphytic fern to simulated climate change conditions

Plant Ecology, 2014
The response of species to climate change is generally studied using ex situ manipulation of microclimate or by modeling species range shifts under simulated climate scenarios. In contrast, a reciprocal transplant experiment was used to investigate the in situ adaptive response of the elevationally widespread epiphytic fern Asplenium antiquum to ...

Morphoanatomical and histochemical characteristics of the epiphytic fern Pleopeltis macrocarpa (Polypodiaceae)

Brazilian Journal of Botany, 2018
Pleopeltis is a genus of the family Polypodiaceae, whose circumscription is still unresolved. The genus comprises about 90 species distributed mainly in the Neotropics. The apomorphies of the genus include the presence of persistent peltate scales and foliar nectaries. In Argentina, Pleopeltis macrocarpa (Bory ex. Willd.) Kaulf.

Herbivory on epiphytic ferns of a Mexican cloud forest

Fern Gazette, 2006
The often-stated hypothesis that ferns are attacked less by herbivores than are angiosperms has not been confirmed for terrestrial ferns. Several authors reported for terrestrial ferns and angiosperms the same number of insect pest species, and similar leaf damage of 5-38 percent, depending on species, leaf age, and type of vegetation.

SEM Studies on Vessels in Ferns. XV. Selected Rosette Epiphytes (Aspleniaceae, Elaphoglossaceae, Vittariaceae)

International Journal of Plant Sciences, 1999
Tracheary elements from macerations of roots and rhizomes of Asplenium nidus, Elaphoglossum hirtum, and Vittaria lineata were studied by means of SEM. All of these have perforation plates in tracheary elements of both roots and rhizomes. The perforation plates in roots and rhizomes show greatest development of perforations (perforations a little wider ...

Regeneration of drought-stressed gametophytes of the epiphytic fern, Pyrrosia pilosellodes (L.) Price

Plant Cell Reports, 1998
The epiphytic habitat represents a highly dynamic environment, and water deficit is one of the common factors that affects growth and development of epiphytes. Gametophytes of the epiphytic fern, Pyrrosia piloselloides (L.) Price, were able to tolerate up to 50 days of drought.

BOTRYOPTERIS FORENSIS (BOTRYOPTERIDACEAE), A TRUNK EPIPHYTE OF THE TREE FERN PSARONIUS

American Journal of Botany, 1991
Basal parts of Botryopteris forensis have been discovered rooted within the mantle of the tree fern Psaronius. Specimens occur in Upper Pennsylvanian coal balls from near Steubenville, Ohio, USA. The Botryopteris stems branch profusely, and these shoots are intertwined with the Psaronius roots near the surface of the mantle.
