Ferns living on the edge: Ecophysiology of ferns under severe water deficit [PDF]
Ferns are the second most diverse lineage of vascular plants, yet we know little about how ferns have adapted to survive in habitats with limited fresh water.

Odonata diversity of the Kuruva Islands, southern India, with notes on the ecology of Disparoneura apicalis (Fraser, 1924) (Odonata: Platycnemididae) [PDF]
Odonata diversity of the Kuruva Islands in Wayanad, a part of the Western Ghats Biodiversity Hotspot in southern India, was studied for a year using transect counts. A total of 59 species were recorded of which 7 are endemic to the Western Ghats.

Die tRNA‐Modifikation Geranyl‐2‐thiouridin ermöglicht eine RNA‐Lipid Assoziation
Wir berichten über die Herstellung mono‐ bis tri‐geranylierter RNA und über die Assoziation hydrophober RNA mit Membranen für einen künftigen effizienten Einbau von RNA in Liposomen. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Die Verpackung von RNA in Lipid‐Nanopartikeln zum Schutz und Transport war für die Entwicklung von mRNA‐Impfstoffen und Medikamenten entscheidend.

Rapid assessment of fern spore quality using microscale electrical conductivity testing
Abstract Premise Ex situ spore banks are essential for fern conservation and research, yet traditional germination tests for assessing spore quality are time consuming and labor intensive. We explored whether electrical conductivity (EC), a rapid proxy for seed vigor, could offer an efficient alternative for evaluating fern spore quality. Methods Using

ABSTRACT This study examines the role of corporate zero‐deforestation commitments (ZDCs) and Industry 4.0 (I4.0) enabling technologies in mitigating deforestation. Drawing on data from 110 companies included in the Forest 500 dataset, the research explores whether sustainability commitments and digital innovation influence firms' deforestation ...

Revisiting ancient polyploidy in leptosporangiate ferns [PDF]
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 ...
