Exploring fern pathosystems and immune receptors to bridge gaps in plant immunity [PDF]
Land plants include angiosperms, gymnosperms, bryophytes, lycophytes, and ferns, each of which may deploy distinct strategies to resist pathogens. Here, we investigate fern-pathogen interactions by characterizing novel pathosystems and analyzing the ...

rFerns: An Implementation of the Random Ferns Method for General-Purpose Machine Learning [PDF]
Random ferns is a very simple yet powerful classification method originally introduced for specific computer vision tasks. In this paper, I show that this algorithm may be considered as a constrained decision tree ensemble and use this interpretation to ...

Genome-wide identification of five fern bHLH families and functional analysis of bHLHs in lignin biosynthesis in Alsophila spinulosa [PDF]
Background The basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors are involved in the biosynthesis of various secondary metabolites. However, genome-wide studies on the bHLH gene family in ferns and their role in lignin biosynthesis remain limited.

Leaf photosynthetic rate of tropical ferns is evolutionarily linked to water transport capacity. [PDF]
Ferns usually have relatively lower photosynthetic potential than angiosperms. However, it is unclear whether low photosynthetic potential of ferns is linked to leaf water supply.
