Response of the photosynthetic apparatus in the tropical fern Platycerium bifurcatum to increased ozone concentration

open access: yesPhotosynthetica, 2019
A rapid increase of ozone concentration up to the phytotoxic level is currently observed in the tropical forests. However, the effect of elevated concentration of O3 on tropical ferns and epiphytes has not yet been described and mechanisms of tolerance ...

Convergence and parallelism in evolution of structures and functions of ferns and other groups of plants

open access: yesTurczaninowia, 2017
On the basis of own investigations and literature data, the similarity of structures and functions of ferns and unrelated and related species is demonstrated in connection with their adaptation to similar mode of life at the different levels of the ...

Contrasting Photochemical Stability and Oxidative Injury Shape Drought Responses in Ferns and Mosses

open access: yesPlants
Drought increasingly threatens terrestrial vegetation, whereas current syntheses remain disproportionately focused on seed plants. Ferns and mosses provide a useful contrast because they represent distinct hydration strategies among early-diverging land ...

The Occurrence of Crassulacean Acid Metabolism in Epiphytic Ferns, with an Emphasis on the Vittariaceae

open access: yesInternational Journal of Plant Sciences, 2005
The potential for nighttime CO2 uptake and/or increases in tissue acidity characteristic of crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) was investigated, to varying degrees, in 12 species of Vittariaceae as well as in seven species in four other families of tropical epiphytic ferns.

Leaf dimorphism of Microgramma squamulosa (Polypodiaceae): a qualitative and quantitative analysis focusing on adaptations to epiphytism

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2013
The epiphytic fern Microgramma squamulosa occurs in the Neotropics and shows dimorphic sterile and fertile leaves. The present study aimed to describe and compare qualitatively and quantitatively macroscopic and microscopic structural characteristics of ...

Solanopteris brunei, a Little-Known Fern Epiphyte with Dimorphic Stems

open access: yesAmerican Fern Journal, 1972
Although the stems of ferns tend to be of only one basic type-the rhizomethere are a number of striking variations known, both in internal structure and in gross morphology. In size alone, rhizomes vary from the massive upright trunks of certain tree ferns down to the almost filiform structures of many filmy ferns.

Sociality in the terrestrial epiphytic fern Platycerium bifurcatum

open access: yes
<p><strong>Throughout the history of life on Earth, major evolutionary transitions have led to greater levels of complexity and organization. One of the most intricate transitions is the emergence of eusociality, characterized by complex social organizations with overlapping generations, cooperative care of young, and reproductive and non ...
