Revisiting Ancient Polyploidy in Leptosporangiate Ferns [PDF]
bioRxiv, 2022 Ferns, and particularly homosporous ferns, have long been assumed to have experienced recurrent whole-genome duplication (WGD) events because of their substantially large genome sizes, surprisingly high chromosome numbers, and high degrees of polyploidy ...

Germination fitness of two temperate epiphytic ferns shifts under increasing temperatures and forest fragmentation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Ferns are an important component of ecosystems around the world. Studies of the impacts that global changes may have on ferns are scarce, yet emerging studies indicate that some species may be particularly sensitive to climate change.

Exploring the phylogeny of the marattialean ferns [PDF]
Cladistics, 2020 The eusporangiate marattialean ferns represent an ancient radiation with a rich fossil record but limited modern diversity in the tropics. The long evolutionary history without close extant relatives has confounded studies of the phylogenetic origin ...

Evolution and expression of LEAFY genes in ferns and lycophytes
EvoDevo, 2022 Background The LEAFY (LFY) transcription factors are present in algae and across land plants. The available expression and functional data of these genes in embryophytes suggest that LFY genes control a plethora of processes including the first zygotic ...

Fern Habitats and Rare Ferns in Oklahoma [PDF]
Oklahoma Native Plant Record, 2008 This paper features some of the more common fern habitats in Oklahoma and provides information on four rare Oklahoma ferns from two fern families: Aspleniaceae and Pteridaceae. Surprisingly, ferns can be found in a variety of habitats across Oklahoma.

Natural Area Weeds: Distinguishing Native and Non-Native "Boston Ferns" and "Sword Ferns" (Nephrolepis spp.) [PDF]
EDIS, 2017 The proliferation of non-native Nephrolepis fern species in Florida's natural areas poses a significant challenge for distinguishing them from native sword ferns (Nephrolepis exaltata) and giant sword ferns (Nephrolepis biserrata).

New Phytologist, 2021 Plants control water use efficiency (WUE) by regulating water loss and CO2 diffusion through stomata. Variation in stomatal control has been reported among lineages of vascular plants, thus giving raise to the possibility that different lineages may show

Change in β-glucosidase activity in root zone of ferns under toxic elements soil contamination [PDF]
, 2023 The influence of toxic elements, such as arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), and zinc (Zn), in the root zone of As-hyperaccumulator Pteris cretica 'Albo-lineata' and non-As-hyperaccumulator P.

Evolution of genome space occupation in ferns: linking genome diversity and species richness
Annals of Botany, 2021 Background and Aims The dynamics of genome evolution caused by whole genome duplications and other processes are hypothesized to shape the diversification of plants and thus contribute to the astonishing variation in species richness among the main ...
