Techniques for locating and analyzing subterranean Lycopodium and Diphasiastrum gametophytes in the field [PDF]
Applications in Plant Sciences, 2022 Homosporous club mosses have an archaic life cycle, alternating two locationally, nutritionally, and physiologically independent generations. The sexual generation of club mosses—the gametophytes (or prothallia)—are among the least researched botanical ...

Fern Gametophytes Exhibit Distinct Patterns of Niche Expansion and Convergence in Ecophysiological Functioning [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionFerns exhibit extraordinary ecological diversity, and their independent gametophyte and sporophyte stages make them distinct among other plant groups, yet the extent to which gametophyte and sporophyte ecology are coordinated is unknown.

The ecology and physiology of fern gametophytes: A methodological synthesis
Applications in Plant Sciences, 2022 All green plants alternate between the gametophyte and sporophyte life stages, but only seed‐free vascular plants (ferns and lycophytes) have independent, free‐living gametophytes.

The Arabidopsis Book, 2011 The angiosperm female gametophyte is critical for plant reproduction. It contains the egg cell and central cell that become fertilized and give rise to the embryo and endosperm of the seed, respectively. Female gametophyte development begins early in ovule development with the formation of a diploid megaspore mother cell that undergoes meiosis.

Plants, 2021 Ferns have conspicuous sporophytes as the dominant phase in their life cycle; however, the gametophytes are completely separated from the sporophytes and supply their own nutrition, unlike in bryophytes and seed plants.

International Journal of Plant Biology, 2022 The fern Athyrium yokoscense often flourishes around mine sites in Japan and can tolerate and accumulate heavy metals such as lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd). In this work, we examined whether proanthocyanidins, also called condensed tannins, were involved in

Plant Methods, 2021 Background Liquid suspension culture efficiently proliferates plant cells and can be applied to ferns because it rapidly increases the fresh weight of gametophytes.

Mycobiome detection from a single subterranean gametophyte using metabarcoding techniques
Applications in Plant Sciences, 2022 Premise Several ferns and lycophytes produce subterranean gametophytes, including the Ophioglossaceae, Psilotaceae, and some members of the Schizaeaceae, Gleicheniaceae, and Lycopodiaceae.

Applied Phycology, 2023 Kelp aquaculture is typically a two-stage process, with an indoor nursery phase and a grow-out phase at sea. For the successful development and implementation of commercial kelp aquaculture, production of viable seeded lines in the nursery is essential ...

Quantitative Plant Biology, 2022 Meristems in land plants share conserved functions but develop highly variable structures. Meristems in seed-free plants, including ferns, usually contain one or a few pyramid-/wedge-shaped apical cells (ACs) as initials, which are lacking in seed plants.
