Non‐seed plants are emerging gene sources for agriculture and insect control proteins
SUMMARY The non‐seed plants (e.g., charophyte algae, bryophytes, and ferns) have multiple human uses, but their contributions to agriculture and research have lagged behind seed plants. While sharing broadly conserved biology with seed plants and the major crops, non‐seed plants sometimes possess alternative molecular and physiological adaptations ...

Neophytes may promote hybridization and adaptations to a changing planet
The human‐mediated breakdown of geographic barriers to gene flow provides previously isolated, genetically distinct taxa with unprecedented new opportunities for hybridization, potentially having a profound impact on biodiversity. We studied the impact of neophyte naturalization on hybrid formation from a macroecological perspective and aimed to gain ...
